No need to believe in a new 4 year plan rebuilding off the previous 4 year rebuild.
Fact of the matter is this team should be winning right now, they should have been winning last season, and we were sold millions of lies and awful FO decisions in that time span.
I'll reserve judgement that all the "new" mindset is mutually exclusive when it shows me what they have done for me lately, rather than hype, what ifs and potential so I am not as disappointed when the games that count roll around.

This is as ridiculous as hating a team because they continue to draft QB's instead of signing a veteran.
The San Diego Chargers went to their only Super Bowl after trading for Stan Humphries. Since then, they drafted Ryan Leaf, Drew Brees and Philip Rivers.
They haven't returned to the Super Bowl nor have they won anything since.
Drafting and developing a QB doesn't happen in a vacuum. Drafting a guy at 1.1, especially a player that extremely undeserving of that spot and expecting a Super Bowl, is folly. David Carr, Jamarcus Russell and Tim Couch are just a few examples.
The Chiefs had no legitimate options in the draft or free agency. Their best chance to compete in 2013 was to trade for the best available QB.
That or stick with Matt Cassel.
