The Chiefs have elected to "rebuild". Fine. I don't think anyone has a problem with that concept. The problem is that it's not actually being executed. Ditching all your veteran talent and bringing in young players is only half the equation, those younger players have to be adequately coached and given direction to succeed. That is clearly
not happening here.
Rebuilding also means competent decisions being made by the front office/GM. Knowing which veterans to cut/trade and which to keep. Peterson sucks at that. Exhibit A...we let Jared Allen go (supposedly because Carl wasn't sure he could stay out of the bars) but kept serial woman beater (assault x3) Larry Johnson, who's career was effectively over 2 years ago after Herm ran him 420 times in a season. How long until Larry is suspended by the league, or joins Lawrence Phillips in jail?
