I honestly think those who want him gone underestimate his value and have a “grass is greener on the other side” mentality.

Not only that but the defense was nails in our Super Bowl win. We shut down Derrick Henry and a shanahan running attack that was obliterating teams in the playoffs. Last 2 years our exit was way more about second half offense failures than it was defense.
I may be a homer but I think we have an ideal situation. Spags uses the season to try a lot of new things and Reid/mahomes can carry the team until he figures things out. By late season spags has a good scheme in mind. I also think the chiefs dc job can be less attractive because more and more we need them to deal with constant turnover of players. Spags showed this year he’s great at coaching these things up and a lot of that is because he does have that flexibility to play around with lots of different things
