It's absolutely relevant when they knew they were starting a first year QB in a revamped offense built around him. To have BOTH sides of the ball in disarray could potentially have been disastrous.
So if the plan was-let's get Patrick a year in this offense, see what we've got, and we'll look at a defensive overhaul next year.
In fact, I remember seeing somewhere that Veach had said they were re-building the defense and that it was likely a 'two year' rebuild. so here's year 2.
I think A)you guys are still just reacting emotionally to the let-down of being so close but still no SB and B) reacting in a pre-PM2 mode. This was year ONE of Patrick Mahomes. you can't really complain because the plan was emphasizing putting Mahomes in the best situation to succeed. Yeah the defense sucked. So they'll go fix that now. You really can't have total chaos on both sides of the ball. Changing one completely and then the other the next season makes a lot of organizational sense.
I'm done arguing about it; I'm not going to convince you, you just see what you want and don't consider anything else. But who cares? Think what you want.
