The "foundation" was already there! They should have stayed with the 4-3, added Rey Maualuga, drafted a pass rushing DE late and focused on the offense.
The move for Jackson had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with building a mythical "foundation" and EVERYTHING to do with his stubborness to continue with a 4-3.
And furthermore, if the Chiefs DON'T acquire at least two pass rushing OLB AND a nose tackle, this scheme is ****ed. |
What sense does it make to hire a man then expect him to continue with a program that is not his? and furthermore a program that was very clearly not working?
Just because YOU have no belief in starting over when YOU felt we were close, means zilch to the man in charge.
