In other words - they got there (playoffs) but their moves were that of a team that intended to do whatever it needed to do in order to stay there and advance.

I think this situation has reach a point of clarity in terms of the philosophy of Pioli compared to KC fan expectations. Pioli thought they could ignore the w/l record and focus on developing a team by simply playing poor overall talent and weeding out the bad ones as they go.
He's finding he is wrong there. If he simply buys a few veteran players and the team wins the majority of home games by doing so, he'll save his ass and maybe still pull it off here in KC.
I still don't buy into the Pioli - Haley feud. That they may be yelling and having heated discussions in the halls of 1 Arrowhead is normal considering how awful this franchise has been and still is.
