Pac,
First, I am not here to defend CP.
I still don't understand why he stll has a job.
However, when it comes to the Chiefs record in the playoffs, the responsibilty for that lands on Marty's shoulders.
Com'on, whether or not CP provided enough talent for the Chiefs to get to the SB is a debate for another thread, a debate I would fall on yor side on, but he did provide enough talent to beat the Colts in '95. A couple of other wins were there for Marty, but he couldn't do it.
Why couldn't he do it?
Because he's afraid of losing?
Billick went to the SB with a similiar team to Marty's. Why was he able to do it?
Because he's [B]not[/B] afraid of losing.
As a prime example, the TD pass to Sharpe, deep in their own territory, 3rd and long, with a QB that is primarily asked to not lose games.
Would Marty have made that call in the same circumstance?
Not a snowball's chance in hell, because he's afraid of losing.
Billick took the risk, because he's not afraid of losing.
