We have a new GM and his name is Brett Veach

To lead with foresight, to lead with a plan that anticipates the future, rather than being reactionary. In this case, an ability to see who's going to perform well as a GM. The best run teams have this sort of leadership, which is why they do not change GMs very often.

Denver is the only team that's won the super bowl in the last 10 years that's had more than 2 GMs over that time. Clark has now had 4 GMs serve him in that span. (Not to mention 4 head coaches)

Hopefully he's got this one right, because churn at the top is not the sign of a successful organization.

Except for the fact that the organization HAS seen more success with each successive regime change.

Clark Hunt didn't make a mistake in firing Peterson and Edwards. He didn't make a mistake in firing Haley, Pioli and Crennel.

It's yet to be seen if he made a mistake firing Dorsey but based on precedence, it's unlikely to be a mistake, either.

I agree completely. I was about to respond. But your response said just what I would have said. Now if Veach drafts like ElFraud and takes the Chiefs back to the gutter while Dorsey goes to another team and build a dynasty, then this was a horrible move. But we just have to let it play out. Hopefully, Veach will pick up where Dorsey left off and will continue to build a deep and dangerous team that will contend for the Superbowl year in and year out.
