But did the coaches listen and how many times does reid have to get clowned and players be ok with it?

So I continue to ask... Sure, this led to a situation where we had no choice. But could it have been prevented if the team and fans acted differently. Maybe peters was bound to blow up. But I also think the team gets way too much credit as they could have handled this better too.
Agreed.

Winning teams find a way to make it work with high maintenance/talented players.

Teams that have one playoff win in 20+ years and haven't been to a Super Bowl in 40+ years do what the Chiefs just did with Marcus Peters.
