Position...yeah, whatever.

But if the Chiefs truly wanted them.....

To summarize the entire segment from Petro because the OP jumped to conclusions -

The Chiefs should draft a QB as high as possible, but it's not a cure all for all of their problems. There are plenty of examples where it has failed, and the Chiefs have that possibility as well.

Look, here's the dynamic:

We have a defense that when healthy and inspired, can actually get things done.
When you have a complete jackass at QB that is capable of absolutely nothing, when the offense has no fire, leadership, or productivity and can not capitalize on the defense's good work, the whole thing goes down the shitter.

The QB, in this modern league and for the Chiefs needs, is THEE MOST IMPORATNT THING TO BE ADDRESSED.

Period.

Good point. Never thought of that.

Even if we had Marino, you don't think Marty and Cowher could of built exceptional defenses without the likes of Smith and Thomas?

Marty and Cowher? Yes.

****her? No.

We have been ****ing failing for 30+ years! Entire generations have been raised in the suck that has been.

Anyone under 25 has no memory of even a respectable or competitive team.

THERE ARE NO NEW FANS.


The children of KC don't care or even follow the Chiefs. All their years this team has been a horrible joke only shown on national TV when some other team did something impressive.

It's the 80's all over again.

At this point the law of averages is IN OUR FAVOR.

DRAFT ONE.

Actually, I didn't jump to any conclusions. I posted the OP before he FINISHED.

Read the subsequent posts and you'll see that I posted the full breakdown.

Who gives a shit what the odds are? We know that NOT drafting one has ****ing killed us.

This is so reeruned.

Durr, Bart Starr went in the 17th round of the draft! (true story) We should follow that plan!

Probably wouldn't have hired Marty, or Carl for that matter.

Remember, this team got gutted in 1988. That likely wouldn't have happened with Marino at the helm.

You know, it's sad when you see the little amount of success this franchise has had over the years. And also having to go through the embarrassing moments
of constantly watching teams walk on us left, right and center.

I think the children of KC do care but are like a lot of other Chiefs fans where they've developed a sense of apathy towards the team. That's just natural when you experience losing on a consistent basis.
