Also, now that the schedule is out, anyone for way too early speculation?

at Jacksonville
Dallas
at Philadelphia
NY Giants
at Tennessee
Oakland
Houston
Cleveland
at Buffalo

at Denver
San Diego
Denver
at Washington
at Oakland
Indianapolis
at San Diego

10-6 - Wild Card.  Probably going on a best case scenario here.  Worst case I think Chiefs could end up 6-10.

Probably 8-8 or 9-7, but I could see 10 wins with that schedule.  I'm an admitted optimist but I don't think there are any games that they have absolutely no shot at winning outside of @Denver

I can agree with that, but the real problem is that there isn't a single game on the schedule that you can point to and say "yeah, they're winning that game." It's hard to predict they will even go .500 when you consider how awful they were last year and their biggest upgrade over the off season was Alex Smith.

I agree with your sentiment based on the fact that the Chiefs went 2-14 last year and until they win some games it's impossible to have any reasonable expectations...but I think the Jaguars, Raiders and Titans are all going to be miserable football teams.  Sprinkle in a few games against the Browns, Eagles and Bills (with Kevin Kolb at QB, not Chief killer Ryan Fitzpatrick) and I would say there are a handful of games that I am mostly confident about.  I'm not predicting them to necessarily win all of those games (I only predicted 8-8 or 9-7), but I think the chances of going 5-2 against those teams is very realistic, leaving the hope for just a 3-6 record against the remaining schedule in order to go .500.

Against last year's schedule, this year's Chiefs probably win 4-6 games, but this schedule is very cupcake.

There are a lot of cupcakes.  Problem is they are mostly on the road.  6-2 road record I was predicting is very optimistic.  Also, I think Oakland will be awful.  Nothing against Flynn who may be capable, but Al Davis mumped their books hard.

Kevin Kolb currently carries a 120.6 QB rating vs the KC Chiefs.  Best case scenario for KC is 8-8. Probably a 6-10 year, though.

I seem to change my mind about every other day on which I want so I'm not sure I can be too upset either way.

I'm pretty sure the radio said that Fisher was willing to play RT.

Albert has ZERO leverage on the Chiefs.  He'll do as he's told.  He played well last year because it was a contract year.  He'll do it again this year.  He knows what's at stake.  He'll play RT if they say so.
