To say the Kansas City Chiefs are struggling would be a huge understatement. Not only have the Chiefs only managed one victory this year, they have lost their last two games by a combined score of 68-10. Adding insult to injury is the fact that Quarterback Brody Croyle left during last week’s game and is expected to miss “several” weeks. This QB situation is compounded by the Chiefs lack of any “quality” backups who could help get them through the rut.

The Chiefs were rumored to have contacted retired Dolphins/Vikings QB Donte Culpepper this week in order to help them fill their gaping QB void. However, they wouldn’t have him ready in time for this week’s game against the New York Jets.

Speaking of the Jets, they are looking forward to this weekend’s matchup with the Chiefs with cautious anticipation. Conventional wisdom would say that a home game against one of the worst teams in the NFL would be a proverbial cake walk, however the Jets know that their 3-3 record is nothing to be overly confident in. In fact, they themselves just lost to a perennial cellar-dweller in Oakland last Sunday.

In a game that means a lot for both teams – the Jets need to pull out of mediocrity while the Chiefs need to end their skid and establish some more confidence, particularly in their offense without Croyle. As always, paper doesn’t matter. They’ll have to play it out on the field. Make sure and watch.
