If you actually think that, then you don't know me AT ALL.
My main beef has been that there has been a huge contingent obsessed with making certain that no Chiefs fan appreciates the hard work and determination that it takes, UNLESS it gets to the SB. Anyone who appreciates anything about the team until it wins a SB is 'content with mediocrity, and a midwest pie-wagon who only cares about stuffing their face in the parking lot and signing over the paychecks to the Hunt family.'
This broad sentiment has been distilled down no one who 'actually'cares about the Chiefs is satisifed with anything but QB, QB, QB!! And it's been further distilled into no one who 'actually' cares is satisfied with anything other than a high draft pick first round, Chiefs-picked prospect.
And I've been vocally supportive of drafting a QB, but just not drafting one just to say we did. That's why I'm actually more in Mahome's corner than his supposed fanbois. They don't know what Mahomes will be, and think that he is just a function of the franchise deciding that Alex had to go. I believe that the franchise still believes in Alex, but are aware he's aging. Most importantly, I believe that they think Mahomes is a prospect worth moving heaven and earth for REGARDLESS of how much Alex has in the tank. THEY are doing the hard work to build a winner.
But just as soon as these supposed fans who've done nothing but bitch for decades now [not that there isn't reason to bitch on occasion, I'm talking about NOTHING but bitch all day every day] get that draft pick QB, it's immediately 'eh, it was probably a reach, and it may end in tears, but isn't it fun to imagine if he's a superstar like the world has never seen while we're stroking our dicks in the offseason.'
