Pete Prisco is physically unable to appreciate the Chiefs

CBS Sports analyst Pete Prisco has a disease that physically prevents him from believing anything good about the Kansas City Chiefs.

For the last five years, NFL analyst Pete Prisco of CBS Sports has predicted middling poor to middling results for the Kansas City Chiefs. In each and every instance, he has been proven wrong. In each and every following season, Prisco tries his best to give the Chiefs credit for, say, making the playoffs, winning double digit games or even capturing a division title. Alas, a rare disease of some kind doesn’t allow him to type such sentiments. Instead, his fingers are forced to type only losing records.

Twitter user @paulheitman recently put together Prisco’s predictions about the Chiefs versus the real results and it’s interesting to see how Prisco’s (dis)belief has never wavered. He is a man of faith who remains strong in his convictions—in this case, it’s a firm belief that the Chiefs are never any good even when they’re very good. Check out the following:

Over the last four years, Prisco has predicted an overall 29-35 record for the Chiefs in four seasons. In that same span of time, Andy Reid has coached the Chiefs to a 43-21 record. There’s never been a single year that Prisco wasn’t at least 3 games off or more in the predicted vs. actual standings, always trending upward by 3 to 5 games, yet every year, Prisco again projects the Chiefs to be much worse than ever.

This year Prisco has the Chiefs falling off four games of last year’s pace. In 2016, the Chiefs swept their division, going 6-0 in the toughest division in the NFL, largely without their single best player in Justin Houston and with one of the NFL’s youngest rosters. Now the entire team is older and wiser and Houston is back but suddenly the Chiefs are going to win as much as they lose?

We feel for Prisco, who is exhibiting serious symptoms leading up to another NFL season. We can only hope he’s as accurate as ever for the 2017 season and that, at some point, he might realize that those in charge in K.C. actually know what they are doing.
