Shields a friendly reminder of how great Carl Peterson was

Drafted Will Shields, Tony Gonzalez, Derrick Thomas, Jamaal Charles, Tim Grunhard, Larry Johnson, Jared Allen, Dave Szott, Donnie Edwards, John Tait, Dale Carter, Greg Wesley, Dwayne Bowe, Derrick Johnson, Jerome Woods, Reggie Tongue, Jerry Ostroski, Joe Horn, Jay Leeuwenberg, Brandon Flowers, Branden Albert, and Tamba Hali. Also picks up future hall of famers Joe Montana, Willie Roaf, and Marcus Allen. Oh, and there was that Priest Holmes guy.

As a non-Chiefs fan, I can appreciate a good general manager who contributes to the league the way Carl Peterson did. He was a solid GM who was thrown out coming off a slam dunk 2008 draft and replaced with Scott Egoli.

We light a candle for you this week King Carl, knowing you're reading somewhere.

That defense with a truly elite, historically great QB would have rolled through all comers.
Maybe so, but I have a hard time calling a GM "great" when that GM has an empty trophy case.

So I'm not sure just how much credit he deserves for the drafting. But as long as we're talking about a GM who the hall of fame ceremony reminds us of being a good GM, that would be Polian. He built a team that went to 4 straight Superbowls and was fired after the 3rd!! That was one of the dumbest moves ever by an NFL team. To blame him for the team he built falling just short of the Lombardi 3 times is insane. He amassed the talent to get that close. Peterson never got that close, but got 20 years!
Not only that, but he got the Panthers to the NFC title game in the 2nd year, then built the Colts. His ego got too big at the end of his run, but there are probably few guys with the winning records his teams put up.

Funny thing is he actually started with the Chiefs as a scout. The Chiefs are actually listed on his HOF bio.

Mother**** Carl, "I stayed 10 years too late" Peterson.

And that's the end of that story.

Carl Peterson was extremely successful in KC in his first ten years, which yielded 9 out of 10 winning seasons and an AFC Championship appearance. He selected several Hall of Fame players and had a good roster each year.

Unfortunately after Marty resigned, instead of seeking out the best possible head coaching candidate to replace him, he turned to someone he was familiar with, a friend, instead. This move, along with hiring other friends like Vermiel and Edwards, spelled doom for this franchise. Any tension or differing viewpoints were gone. The draft and free agent acquisitions were poor (until 2008 when Herm and Kuharich wrested personnel decisions from him).

For all of the enjoyment and excitement his first ten years brought, the second ten were pretty much awful. Six out of ten losing seasons, some of those which were dreadful to watch.
