Marty was successful here. But there will always be that "we never won it all" attached to him.

So those years weren't a total success.


A super bowl win and there isn't anything to point out negative.

That will make it not a failure. To me there is middle ground between failure and success. Success is winning a championship, particularly if it is done in a repeatable way like getting a franchise QB.

I think Reid is going to do all that he can in the next couple of years to get more pass rushers on this team.

My dream would be Jared Allen coming here in FA next year, but that probably won't happen.

Buffalo hasn't been to the playoffs since 1999.

I'm pretty certain their fans would enjoy multiple playoff wins.

I don't think Allen fits in the 34, at all.


IF things work out with Smith, it's time next year to start looking early in the draft for a pass rusher early, in the mold of Aldon Smithish type guy.

You just said it better than I did. Thanks

It's weird how things go.

If you asked this question right after Marty left, if it was successful, it would have probably been mixed.

If you ask it now, it was successful.

Things have just been so shitty here for so long, it's hard to really determine right now.

Marty reengergized the fan base, put Kansas City and Arrowhead stadium on the map. He won plenty of big games and unfortunately, left town too soon.

But there's no way, then or now, that his tenure could be construed as unsuccessful.

it wasn't totally successful though.

they always failed in the end...

I'm on the record with this.

Because of what they were when he was here, and never could win the big one, emotionally I think at the time alot of people wouldn't necessarily say it was unsuccessful, just not a great success.


I think to get to said ultimate level of success, you have to have a Lombardi in there.

After 10 years with no SB, Marty's tenure, while not ultimate failure, was ultimately unsuccessful.

I just don't agree that Marty left town too soon. Monday Night Meltdown essentially sealed his fate, and appropriately so.

What will make the Reid regime a success? Reading CP and deciding to go into the stands and **** punting Wendler and Lil Chiefy/Sweet Dipshit Hate on the megatron.

But that's just silly. One losing season in ten is an appropiate reason to leave town?

Considering the franchise's dismal record since, I'd say his departure was unwarranted and premature.
