Alright Warpath,

I have to tell you to give it a rest. I do believe that EVERYONE knew that the approach for this season was to really sit back and evaluate. They inherited a team that was bad. Everyone knew that

We knew they wouldn't be active in free agency, and they weren't. Not until they got to OTA's and training camp and had a chance to evaluate players with their own eyes. Tape can say one thing, but who's to say the player isn't failing b/c he's doing exactly as he's told. You are better off seeing how they fair in your drills. By the time they realized who was out, the pickin's were slip. The guys they brought in, at least in my eyes, weren't "their guys", they were what was left, but they were still an unknown potential compared to the know crap we had.

With Todd Haley as coach, recent culture of loosing, Clark Hunt on the budget and the uncapped rules.... It will be a bleak offseason in KC.

The only way this team is going to get better is:

Coach the players you have better.
Draft like a genious.
Continue to bring in other teams 54th best player.

I don't agree with what's in bold, at all. In fact, if it's true, everyone who is in charge at 1 Arrowhead should be fired immediately.

The goal is always to make progress toward a championship. Period. Not to sit back and evaluate.

You evaluate and then make the necessary moves to get better, and Pioli had sufficient time to do this before a single meaningful snap happened. Arguing otherwise is revisionist history.

As fans, we have to face the distinct possibility that Pioli is dumb as ****. So far, the evidence says he *might* be.

Meanwhile, I'm hoping like hell that he puts together an off-season this coming year that presents an equally convincing counter-argument.

BULLSHIT excuse.

BULLSHIT excuse. Are you telling me that we can't adequately judge Michael Oher, Percy Harvin, Knowshon Moreno, Michael Crabtree or Vontae Davis?

Tyson Jackson is just a GUY. He hasn't "flashed". Magee? Same thing. Washington? A Joke. O'Connell? ROFL

More nonsense.

This isn't New England. There is no TOM BRADY on the roster. Todd Haley isn't Bill Belichick.

If Scott Pioli came to town thinking he could just follow the Patriots blueprint, without any improvisation or changes, he's a bigger ****ing idiot than I previously thought. I don't hold him in high regard, whatsoever at this point.

I knew what was wrong with this team. In MY mock draft, I had Sanchez, Unger, Urbick, Louis Murphy, Louis Vasquez and more. How come I knew what the Chiefs needed but the Executive Of the Millennium didn't?

Oh, and there were several others around here that had pretty damn good mock drafts that seem to know more about the Chiefs than ****ing Scott Pioli.

You're making too many excuses for a job that to date, has been poorly executed from top to bottom.

New sig.

More bullshit.

Pioli turned over 65% of the roster.

If you think that HE expected the Chiefs to win less than 4 games this season, you're delusional.

Looks like everything that I would have said in response to this post has already been said.

People want to fight the obvious, and it's a completely understandable reaction. It sucks to know that this team is no where close to being competitive.

Much easier to make excuses and hope and wish that Pioli is really going to start trying this off-season. Because about the only thing worse than realizing that this team will suck ass for another year or two is the thought that maybe the guy in charge isn't capable of fixing it.

He'll be missed.

You...

Cry me a river.

JFC.

:shake:

Someone should give him a list of people to take with him.

If Pioli had no chance of drafting capably because he didn't have "his" guys in place, the same should be said of EVERY new GM? Why do some new GM's draft ok the first year? Luck? Madan Cloe? Why do some teams do well the first year under a new GM? Some actually improve. Magic 8 ball?

And what was more important to Pioli when he got here than the draft? Couldn't he do the administrative stuff later? Change the office around and fire the security guard after the draft? I would have though that he would have spent a LOT of time on the draft when he first got here. Yeah, hire a coach, but leave the rest of the stuff till later. Then again, maybe I'm wrong. I do know that everytime I've been asked to take over a business, I'm expected to make progress quickly. Gone are the days of getting worse before it gets better.

It's a process. Trust it.

Im going to try that next time my boss asks why we aren't getting results. I'll let you know how that goes. Just in case, got any job openings where you work?

Sorry. You sound like you like results.

My work is about the right 234, not the best 234.
