We have seen the Chiefs have a dynamic offense. At one point we fielded one of the single greatest offensive lines in NFL history. We had a record setting RB use that O-line to perfection. On that same team we had the greatest TE to ever play. And a QB that, while not spectacular, played at a very high level, leading the most prolific offense in Chiefs history. And we threw it all away with a joke of a DC running a historically bad defense. And the HC was too loyal to correct the situation. So, even if Mahomes is out of this world, it will be for nothing. If Reid won't replace Sutton, then Clark Hunt needs to do it for him, or can them both. Dorsey didn't do the Chiefs any favors, and so Sutton never really had enough bullets to load his gun, but instead of picking up another weapon, Sutton just kept pulling the trigger on an empty gun. Dorsey failed to build depth in the secondary or linebacker positions, and Sutton didn't adjust to his personnel. I want Mahomes to live up to his potential, but I am afraid that even if he does it won't matter. Tge TL;DR version: Reid needs to Fire Sutton, or Hunt needs to fire Reid and Sutton. Veach needs to acquire faster, better linebackers and defensive backs. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk |

If we can net a couple defensive starters out of this draft by trading Alex Smith that will help any DC look good. Getting Eric Berry back is also going be a huge boost but I don't trust Sutton either so I think this year is going be his last if we continue this tripe of Defense.

I'm not going to totally put the blame on Clark. Twice he's gone out and got the hottest GM prospect and once a highly thought of OC to be the HC. When the Pioli/Haley/Crennel mess blew up in his face, he made an effort to get the best available HC. It's not his fault the QB draft class was full of crap. Yet we climbed out of those dark years immediately. He had his top 2 guys wanting Smith, so he backed them. He's a businessman, not a guy that watches a lot of film.
I'm not going to place all the blame on Andy, either. He knows exactly what he has in Smith and will rectify that PDQ. I do think Andy has to do 2 things. First, fire Sutton. I don't know who he can get, but we can't allow that mess to go on. Second, he has to start being a SOB. Screw getting a 3 possession lead and then dialing the O back. Clark needs to have a talk with Andy and take action if the situation isn't rectified. If our D continues to blow leads next year with Sutton and Andy won't change, goodbye Andy, Last edited by oldman; 01-23-2018 at 07:13 AM.. |

I hate the fact we aren't one of the teams that eve gets chosen to go t the Super Bowl. Falcons owner Arthur Blank once said "I sure wish my team would get to be chosen to go the Super Bowl" and was rewarded with one, but only the condition that he choke and lose in the second half. But at least he got to go. We must still owe the mob for the overnight completion of arrowhead in the early 70s. Rumor has it that's why we've sucked for 45 years. After seeeing Triplette make up BS and lie about forward progress to screw us out of 10 points instead of just 7, it's probably safe to assume we took the longer payment plan, and we're still in the red.

The fact that so many chicken shit fans of this franchise have no clue about what it takes to develop a quarterback, and they would rather continue on with mediocrity and chicken shit quarterbacks like Alex Smith. That's what bothers me the most.

What the hell are you talking about? I clearly said my complaint was with the fans.

For me it's being frustrated with every HC from Marty to DV to Andy.
All three just failed to admit to their own weaknesses and the weaknesses of their teams...

The hell I was talking about was your implication that you know how to develop a QB, or at least more than "chickenshit fans". I'll agree that there are those that are perfectly happy going 10-6, 1 and done, but the majority of the fanbase knows Mahomes is our future. The fans are not the owners/leaders of the franchise. That's the original question.

I don't care if you don't like it, my gripe with this franchise is the ignorant (overall) fanbase. |

The fact that ownership and most fans are satisfied with regular season victories and post season failures. The fact that ownership loves soccer more than football.

I have yet to see any proof that Blank actually said this outside of copypastas spread around by conspiracy theorists. Where's the link to this supposed interview?
