Somebody is sad his system's flaws were shown so clearly.

In the case of guys like Mahomes, Kelce, and Chris Jones, they have had a longer run across the last 6 years than any trio of players for a specific team across the league. Every damn year their season has gone at least to Overtime in the AFC title game. Long seasons. Less rest than other players around the league.
I would even say this applies to Andy Reid as well. He has had a longer season on average than any other head coach the last 6 years. Zero breaks when your team is making deep runs in the Playoffs. Harder to bring your A-game in the regular season when you know the Playoffs are the only thing that means a damn thing.
