This team needed depth everywhere. We got deeper at dline, rb, special teams, the secondary, and somewhat at te. While I've been vocally neutral about the qb, Smith is still an enormous upgrade . I actually think most of our oline and ilbs would be excellent depth, but they shouldn't be starting.

We gutted pretty much half of Piolis guys. I agree we needed help at oline and wr and Dorsey should accept blame especially at oline. But let's not pretend this teams only problems two years ago were there. We needed help at a ton of areas and we've at least narrowed that list down.

What's really ****ed about the OL issue is that someone can justify burning another 1st round pick amongst that squad due to their fabulous shitshow this season.

Parker is awful. He's afraid to tackle anyone, gets frozen by look offs or bites on pump fakes. The guy sucks.

Ugh, No.

This team is getting worse for the 'gutting'

What's wrong with this? A lot of these guys were good players for us last year and the others are cheap role players that are easily replaced.

Some of them cost a bit more and served their purpose. Now we can get money back and get other players.

Not sure what you don't get about this? We needed some of these guys last year in year 1.

Our best run stuffers at every level are Mike DeVito, DJ and Berry. All three of these guys gone. You think that doesn't make a difference?

Manning did throw the ball. 34 times. And he completed HALF of them. Hell some of them, like the CJ Anderson TD, was a quick dump off. I feel good about our secondary. Gaines was a ****ing boss out there.

Two years in and we haven't won the SB? OMG! Last year we made the playoffs and everyone called him great. CP is so wishy washy. It's Hunts fault we have no titles in 40 years, not Dorsey. The man will return us to contention in the next few years.

The team that Reid and Dorsey have formed have beaten 3 of the 6 current playoff teams in the AFC and 5 winning teams overall.

And it's year 2. And we didn't have a 2nd rd pick in the first 2 drafts. We're making progress. It's better than last year for sure.

The Chiefs are 2 games away from having back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since the 90's. They might make the playoffs in back-to-back years.
It takes time.

Are you kidding me?

This team is 7-5 on a schedule 100 times more brutal than last year's. We are close in every single game including against the best teams in the league. And you think we're getting worse?

Oh, but the o-line is moving backwards. God forbid.

JFC.

I had totally forgot this year because we didn't make the playoffs.

Do you agree with the point of the post though?

this. mauga & JMJ [insert any of our backup ilb] are complete trash.

I don't know.

I was pretty high on Dorsey & Reid but the last two games (coupled with Tennessee and SF) really have me concerned about the Chiefs future. While Dorsey's done well with role players, his high draft picks have been a disappointment at best.

And as Reid goes, so do the Chiefs. If his play calling is great, the Chiefs win. If his play calling is poor, the Chiefs lose. His poor decision making greatly affects the defensive side of the ball, too.
