Here’s part one of my instant reaction to the Chiefs‘ 2008 schedule, which could change after the draft…
Week One: @ New England
0-1. Um, what else is there to say? Well, besides this being the worst possible place to start the season.
Prediction: Loss (0-1)
Week Two: OAKLAND
Just win, baby. And we will. Order returns to the Chiefs-Raiders rivalry, and the Red and Gold begin a new win streak.
Prediction: Win (1-1)
Week Three: @ Atlanta
We’ll call this the Matt Ryan bowl, because chances are Ryan will be wearing one jersey or the other. Atlanta, I will kill you if you take him. This is a toss up, but I see us letting up after taking out the Silver and Black. Dirty birds win ugly.
Prediction: Loss (1-2)
Week Four: DENVER
There will be no let down here. With Javon Walker gone and Brandon Marshall acting more like Marshall Mathers, how will the Donks have any kind of passing attack? We get revenge at Arrowhead.
Prediction: Win (2-2)
Week Five: @ Carolina
I’m going to say we lose this game, but put an asterisk by that loss. If Jake Delhomme plays, that revamped passing attack will devastate our secondary. If he’s hurt, we put a hurtin’ on the Panthers.
Prediction: Loss (2-3)
Week Six: BYE
Week Seven: TENNESSEE
Remember the Titans? That team that rolled into Arrowhead last December and rolled over us. V.Y. and Co. could do it again, but I doubt it. We eek out a win after the bye week.
Prediction: Win (3-3)
Week Eight: @ New York Jets
History repeats itself–Herm is going to suffer yet another loss at his old stomping grounds. This looks like one we can win, but we won’t. I can all but guarantee that.
Prediction: Loss (3-4)
Week Nine: TAMPA BAY
I’m sorry, but I see Jon Gruden and his tough-as-nails football team coming into the ‘Head and stealing a win. Call Jeff Faine the difference. Ouch.
Prediction: Loss (3-5)
Part two coming soon…

your crazy. I have more faith than that
It’s “you’re crazy”…and no I’m not.
It’s not about faith–it’s about honesty, realism. We’ll be lucky to win six games after not adding any free agents of note other than Darling and Williams, who both could end up being part-time players or back-ups.
You are crazy. Beating my Broncos?
Your Broncos are going to be awful. Each team will win its home game.
I think we get the Faiders at home too, but I think the Titans beat us. Their pass rush will stomp us this time around, and this year will define VY as to whether he keeps getting better or backslides. I also think we will beat Atlanta…Michael Turner and Matt Ryan aren’t enough to beat our D. As far as after the bye, we could lose each game until Buffalo and if that happens, Herm’s lost his team and the wheels are off. What’s the point of even winning after that. We’d be 2-8. Looks like another year of the AFC West splitting all the games. Yawn. At least there is fantasy that’s all I got to say.
