The '60's and early '70's greatness ended on Christmas Day, 1971. We still had many of the great Chiefs on the roster in '72 and '73, but we were on the down hill slide due Stram's decision to hold on to aging veterans for too many seasons. We were 8-6 in '72 and 7-5-2 in '73 and both of those seasons were filled with bitter disappointment, so much so that Hank Stram was fired as head coach after the '74 season.
