Surely you can see that the coaching-issues we currently have are more obviously flawed than the age-issues we had two years ago? Even sports pundits admit that the Chiefs' age-issues snuck up on everyone.

I'm just trying to figure out why in the hell you're patient with the incompetence, but you were disappointed with a lack of action on this supposed "rebuild". Makes no sense to me.
No, I wasn't clear. I see now, through hindsight, that the rebuild should have started a year earlier. I think it's fair for those who were calling for a rebuild earlier to criticize Carl for hanging on to the veteran team for that last year, but I wasn't one of them so I'm not going to criticize on that count.

Food for thought: Firing Carl and/or Herm after one real rebuilding year will be a discouragement to future Chiefs GMs and coaches to pull that rebuilding trigger. I think it makes sense to give them a second year.
