Scrap Dabols system that he has in place?
Scrap the GREAT system we have of using the checkdown on ever pass attempt?
Scrap the draw play on 3rd and 15?
Scrap the lack of audibles?
Scrap 3 and out?


You mean this offense that we run isn't worth scrapping?

That's my thoughts as well. I wouldn't be butt hurt if we got him, but I wouldn't be all ectatic either. More moot than anything. I so much rather pull the strings to get RGIII or even give Stanzi a shot at it. We can have a good look at next years QB class if we need too. Mostly I believe in drafting our own to reach Super Bowl glory.

I don't think acquiring Manning changes the direction of our team building. We're in line to upgrade our O line and we're in line to finish off our D with an interior d lineman. Those things aren't going to change if we get Manning.

If getting Manning were to cause the team to lose draft picks, I would be more on the fence about it. However, getting Manning is only really going to cost Clark Hunt money. Pioli can structure the contract so it won't put the team in cap hell, so at the end of the day I am on board with Clark having one less jumbo jet so the team can have an elite qb.

Exactly. It's a no-brainer. We know he isn't a long term fix, but at least he's an upgrade to the position, that has the potential to make a SB run. I'll take that over the crap we trotted out there for the past five years.

That seems a little ****ing uncalled for.

We grieving fans have suffered too long through too many builds and rebuilds. Many of us are running out of patience.

Montana took us to the AFC Championship and almost to the promised land. It was the most fun we Chiefs fans had in decades. The Chiefs were fun to watch, got the respect they deserved, and we could hold our heads high. Isn't that what fans really want (short of a SB win of course)? Even if it would have set us back a few years afterward (which it didn't), it was very much worth it.

Since we have no QB. And no way to draft either of the top 2, signing Manning is the right move.
This team is ready to win now.

Montana is the problem. KC sniffed the Super Bowl pussy with Montana, and now after 20 years of blue balls the fans are desperate. The real answer isn't calling in some aged call girl with a nerve problem. They need to find the sexy young thing to the groom and bang for the next 12 years.

But we have audibles. They're the audibles from New England's 2008 offense, but we've got 'em.

Creepy. Also dumb.

Too bad Peyton can't run up Oakland's penalities for a new high of jumping offsides

I don't really want to go this direction either but you have to look at the options here.

If we don't take Manning, we'll sign Orton (or similar) and/or keep Cassel.

This franchise will not draft a legit QB, ever. They won't trade up to get RGIII, either.
It's our best/only option as far as I can see. If they get Manning, I'll be happy and hopeful. The Chiefs will be instant contenders with him if he stays healthy.

It's history repeating itself, basically. Let's hope the end of the story is a happier one.
