I know it hasn't been a lot of fun for you in recent years and this past season was incredibly painful, but I think that is a light at the end of your tunnel.

Removing Pioli and the coaching staff is huge - replacing them with Reid and whomever the new GM will be should be a sign of great things to come. KC has the #1 pick, a pretty solid foundation of players and a great fanbase.

I think if they play it right in FA - booting some players and replacing them wisely, then you can see great things happening fairly quickly. I don't know if that involves Geno Smith or not... how similar is he to McNabb (if at all really)? I know that Reid had a lot of success with a young and mobile pass happy McNabb, so maybe they can replicate some things they did early in PHI.

It will take some time though... but, I'm sure most of you will be pretty realistic with expectations.

Seriously - congrats and good luck. I really can't wait until the AFCW is truly competitively balanced again.

Yeah, the Donks are having their day right now but Manning is old and the Chiefs will now be the AFCW team of the future baby!

Get your ass ready for an epic ****ing.

What was BB before Tom Brady? Yeah, that's what I thought too.

O.city · 01-04-2013, 02:47 PM

Actually, I hope the Donks stay good. It's just better that way.

The last couple years, beating each other when we both suck, are no fun.

Thank you very much Gaylord

Thanks. Good luck to you and the Broncos. Oh, wait............

I rarely ever post here, but have been an avid reader since the early 2000s. Lifetime Chiefs fan - hell, Im an old man - but business played a cruel trick on me after 40 years in KC. In 2010 I had to relocate to San Diego. Hated that damn place. Went to Qualcomm once or twice (My GOD!! What a shithole that stadium is) and then......to top everything off....have now relocated to Denver........Oh the Humanity!!!

Try as I might, I just can NOT even bring myself to watch the damn

.

I have torn up Wiziwig following my guys every week since moving out of Olathe....and nearly pissed myself when Piolio was canned today!!! I think Reid is a great hire and whomever he brings in as GM will most certainly be an improvement.

Congratulations Chiefs fans!! That damn dark cloud that has hovered over Arrowhead for the last 4 years is now gone.

Oh sure... its easy for you DonksFans to dish out the congrats from your perch high up on the AFCW crown. We RayderFans & DoltFans aren't as happy about it as you are. The door on Sandy Eggo closed so fast on them it pinched their testicles as it slammed shut. They go into rebuild mode. Oaktown is still deep in a player-attitude, cap-strapped, draft-deficit hole as they scramble to find the coaches that might be able to dig out. With a coach & a QB, KC has a coupla steps on both of those miserable teams. KC getting it together may look cute when viewed though Manning glasses.... but its much uglier when viewed from the AFCW Left Coast.

The Raiders need time.

The Boltz need a new city.

The Chiefs need a QB (and some time).

It's going to take years to undo what Al Davis left you guys with.

**Iowanian** · 01-04-2013, 03:36 PM

6 of the 12 teams in the playoffs have rookie or 2nd year starting QBs.
A handful of those teams had terrible records over the previous seasons.

The Chiefs were abysmal this year. Awful. Tuuurble....but the cupboard isn't bare.
Better coached team with a new quarterback and a couple of nice FA signings....and the Chiefs are contenders in a dismal, putrid AFCW next season.

Thanks man I say we call a truce and you guys just lay down the next 10 or so times we meet so we can embarass you. Peace.

Well you guys were pure horse $hit 3 years ago. Now you're back to back division champs. It can be done quickly with the right moves and circumstances.
