Those guys built a team through the draft, they didn't make their first franchise move as one to go trade for a QB.

while I agree with you on building a team through the draft.... I'm willing to give the noob front office more than one draft and offseason before I go off on them... I'm not happy with everything they have done but I think it's early to say they will not be successful we simply don't know at this point

I think Lamar wanted to win - his two big problems were a) he was too damn loyal and b) he lost his ass in the diamond market. That second one is one most fans overlook.
I'll save my judgement on Clark as history hasn't played out yet. For one I think he has the right idea for the franchise - build through the draft, he just hired the wrong guy. Now it was one hell of a move in football world, but Chiefs weren't the franchise type that Pioli needed to go to IMO. |

I hate to disagree, Bro. But if Lamar really wanted to win, he would have had a larger hand in day-to-day operations. And he wouldn't have waited 15 years between playoff appearances not once, but twice. |

If you wanted to build through the draft we needed to hire a guy from the Colts/Ravens or Giants.

Why shouldn't he hire a coach just because he came from the same place he did?
That's what we do with players. |

Lamar cared in the AFL days by the time I was born he didn't, he cared about making money.

At least Lamar wasn't Nelson Baker Hunt. If I believed in Hell, I'd be certain there's a 5* lodge with demons ready to ass**** him with water buffalo cocks for eternity in the 9th circle.

I'll admit I do have a bias toward Lamar and Steadman. My family knew both of them personally and did lots of business with both of them in the late 70's and 80's. Actually they went two or three times a year to the Gold Suite back then. Lamar had a damn loyalty thing that was his major down fall and it bite him in the ass when it came to the football team. It worked good in his other business ventures sans the silver market.
