Kansas City: Ugly ugly ugly… and no, I’m not just talking about Romeo Crennel’s chances of being a head coach after this season, or even Scott Pioli’s chances of not being run out of town on a rail before 2013 kicks off. No, I’m just talking about the Chiefs’ chance of actually having anything useful fantasy-wise during a visit to Pittsburgh.The Steelers are playing inspired football right now, and have especially made big strides on defense, which doesn’t bode well for the Chiefs, who rank 29th in the league in scoring with a paltry 16.6 ppg average. Matt Cassel will get another start this week, but does it really matter?Cassel hasn’t played well since 2010, and he probably isn’t starting now on the road against the No. 1 ranked defense yardage-wise in the league. Of course, Dwayne Bowe is the only receiver he tends to throw to, so even if Cassel only tosses 150 yards in a game, you can bet that half that production will go Bowe’s way.The near guarantee of production can’t be said for
