I think he's talking about the season, and I for one think Gibbs, either consciously or not, had some hand in this. We all know he despises the preseason "Super Bowl" talk, and time and time again he mentions the danger of people preparing for you because they remember you from last year. He likes it when other teams underestimate him.

Couple that with Saunders explaining matter-of-factly that to him, preseason games are just practices in game situations, and look the Chiefs career preseason numbers under Saunders offense and I think it becomes pretty clear that the press has once again completely taken the bait.

I am not worried in the slightest. Will the first couple of games probably be ugly? Yeah. And we will never get the press love for ugly wins. I for one don't care. The Colts were the prettiest team to get bounced out of the playoffs last year.
