Chiefs If Andy Reid took the Chiefs to 5 AFC Championship Games over the next 14 years...

Obviously compared to where we are right now, that would be great. But once we are in that position of coming up short, it won't be.

Pro sports is about being a champion. Everything else is well.... not. If you're happy with good seasons that never end in a championship you must be a beat down Chiefs fan or something.

Would I be completely satisfied if they got that close without ever winning it all? Of course I wouldn't. Nobody would.

But will I be extremely happy if Andy Reid is able to establish a program that has sustained success over a long period of time, presumably with plenty of thrills along the way, even if Reid never manages to hoist the Lombardi Trophy over his head?

Hell yes.

Clark Hunt has recognized what a monumental mistake Pioli was. He's blowing up the entire organization and turning it over to a proven winner. Anyone who isn't ecstatic about the changes that are taking place right now is a freaking idiot.

I'm sure there will be bumps along the way, and I'm sure every now and then Andy Reid will make a decision that is sharply criticized by everyone (including me). But at least Clark Hunt is doing the right thing and pointing the Chiefs in the right direction. For the first time in years I actually have some optimism about this team. This is the BEST Chiefs' coaching hire since Marty Schottenheimer. And despite what any Schottenheimer-bashers may think, that was a GREAT coaching hire.
