This should scare the **** out of everyone.

If 8-8 gets this guy the fat payday, it's time to just close up shop.
Which brings me to:

He hired the best available head coach and a coveted front office man as GM. The coaching staff is certainly the best and most successful since the Vermeil era, if not the Schottenheimer era.
I'm not sure how much more change people expected in less than five months.

Change for the sake of change doesn't mean much to me in regards to the Chiefs. The problem, as I see it, is this; I don't see Clark Hunt as a "football guy". Not at all. I see a man who is more concerned with his father's legacy than a man who eats, sleeps, lives, and breathes the game of football. I see Hunt as a guy who hires guys like Dorsey and Reid, and tells them, "well if there's a problem, YOU figure it out; that's what I'm paying you for". I'm not saying the man isn't "hands-on", but if I owned a team, I guarantee you I would know more about upcoming coordinators, managers, and coaches than what I could glean from my owner-buddies at the once-a-year round table meeting.
Your business is either your passion or it isn't. And in the case of KC; it shows.
