But 'the TN situation' is something that ONLY happens to Chiefs teams. The Steelers kept coming back on the Jaguars because they're the Steelers and are loaded with offensive talent.

The Chiefs are not only the only team in the playoffs, but perhaps the only team in the LEAGUE that the Titans can come back from a 20 point deficit on, and that's because they can't run the ball and play defense when it's actually called for, even when they have the lead.

And the contingent that is obsessed with the QB position doesn't give a single shit about that 'part' of football. It's just a fluke, defense is luck, excitement over a QB will fix all of that, blah, blah, blah. They tune out completely unless the ball is flying through the air, which is the only 'part' of the sport they give a shit about.

Sure, there will always be situations where you are forced to rely on a desperate drive by the QB to come back from the verge of defeat, but just as much as Alex might not be that guy, the Chiefs are the only team for which that need arises from double-digit leads forfeited in the playoffs.

So now we have this mindset in the fanbase that actually fielding a quality team is 'too hard and complicated.' Better to field one good player and hope he's good enough to make an inferior team competitive.

This post is awesome... especially the final sentiment, in which you worded far better than I have been. So reiteration!
