I think there are a few things to consider....
First, we are the hunted and it seems this off-season teams were trying to outspend us or block us from getting the talent we need. Lesson learned.

Second, I think the chiefs in many ways view this as a transition year and didn't even expect we would be successful. It's not the worst idea. The bills and chargers and Bengals are riding super cheap contracts. Otherwisw we coiodve easily traded for... Say... Brian burns. We didn't treat the midseason with code red emergency and I get that would rub some the wrong way. But there's some logic to it.

Where are people getting this nonsense? Was Burns traded? If not, then he clearly wasn't going to be traded "easily." I have no idea what reality some of you all are residing in.
