Manning Could Smell It, We Couldn't
This may be a repost...I don't really care.
As I was watching Manning and Denver last night come back to beat San Diego, I couldn't help but think about one thing: we were all blind and Manning knew exactly what he was doing when he wouldn't give the Chiefs organization the time of day during the offseason.
We went on and on during the offseason about how dumb Manning would be not to come here with all of our talent. We talked about how we'd instantly be Super Bowl contenders if he would just sign with us.
Maybe we would be Super Bowl contenders if he had signed, but it would be in spite of our front office and coaching staff and not because of it.
Manning saw the stench from a mile away and steered clear. Yet like hog farmers, we'd gotten so used to the smell that we didn't know any better. Our nostrils have been opened now though and we've come to realize, it really does stink around here.
