Considering the franchise's dismal record since, I'd say his departure was unwarranted and premature.

It wasn't just a losing season, it was a total and complete embarrassment because of his loss of control. Marty was never going to assemble a better team than he had in '97 or '95, and he proved that he just wasn't going to get it done.
The problem is that Carl needed to be replaced along with Marty. They had a good run together, but both lived out their utility.
Andy Reid, like so many coaches, is going to be defined by his choice in QBs. Alex Smith can be the starting point, but Reid must acquire a franchise QB, or he'll be yet another one of KC's dismal failures.
