Let's discuss the 5 year plan.

There have been some pretty damning commentary but I'd like to see some pretty convincing evidence to prove to me that he failed in putting the team on the field that had the capability to achieve his goal in the first 5 years of his tenure with the Chiefs.

Let's see as much data as possible and leave personal opinion as far from the conversation as we can.

[KC Jones]

Relevant Data:
18 years, no Lombardi's

[Reerun_KC]

More Relevant Data:

3 playoff wins in 18 years. ?

zero ability to develop a QB in 18 years.

Totally selling the rule of mediocrity and having the city of KC eating out of your hands embracing mediocrity to the fullest.

I agree with most everyone here that from the 2003 LJ/Jared Allen drafts we have been doing a good job with our drafts. But we are still suffing in 2007 because of these draft years between Tony G and LJ.:cuss:

The Chiefs have great regular season records and but what about the playoffs? The historical facts about the results on the field can't be denied. <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">The fans of KC have sold out every game since the early 90's <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">Season Ticket Prices are up over 200% above normal inflation increases during King Carl's rein <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">King Carl has the longest rein in the NFL as GM, 17 years <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">Every team in the AFC West (including a former team, the Seahawks) has been to a Super Bowl during King Carl's rein, but us <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">Two playoff apperances in the last 10 years. <LI class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in">No playoff wins since 1994 (Average ticket Price = $26.83).

But when Marty left I felt he was still a good coach but it was time for him to move on. It is time for King Carl to voluntarily move on.

1990 11-5 (Lost in the 1st round of the playoffs)

King Carl’s regular season record during his rein under 4 different HC and 19 years = 173-135

13 years ago would have been a great time for this discussion.
