I'm not panicking

I was at the game last night and was surprised and disappointed in the narrow victory. The Chiefs crowd was definitely into it. As much as I had hoped that the Steelers would win by like 20+ points, it didn't happen but I do not think that it is time to panic. A win is a win and especially on the road in a tough environment (even though the Chiefs aren't that good). We are 8-3! I believe that there is some element to playing down to the competition which leads to believe that they will play well on Sunday against the Bengals. Yes, I know that Cleveland remains twice on the schedule (they should of beat Cincy yesterday) as well as the Rams, however I expect that this team will win out and finish 13-3. SF was exposed by B-more and we are extremely similiar to B-more in style of play. Hopefully the Ravens lose at least one game as well as the Texans and with the Texans, things just got a whole lot more interesting with them hanging on now that Leinart is down. We will see. As much as I would of hope to see a blowout in person last night, I'll gladly take the win like the 53 players and coaches on our favorite team will and move on to Cinci!

 

no need to panic.....only panic if we had lost

 

at least we still won the game, compared to what the ratbirds do on their bad days

 

I chalk it up to the bye week. Seems every team is having trouble after it

 

Definitely the bye week is killing a lot of teams this year. I blame it on the lack of padded practices. You saw what happened after Tomlin used 2 in one week. Instant improvement! Quite possibly the biggest part of the CBA that hurts this team the most.

 

Good point. Playing like crud in a win is a lot better than in a loss. Line up and at 'em again next week.
