Come on guys. Yeah we won the SB but that doesn't mean Veach was perfect. Take off the homer blinders for a second will you.

There were two problems with the Chiefs’ game against the titans in the 17 playoffs:

1) your boi “Smitty” played like a chickenshit coward, as was his way

2) the offense stagnated when Kelce was out because there was no one to take pressure off Hill in the passing game

1) was taken care of when Veach fleeced the Redskins

2) was answered by adding Watkins. He didn’t produce huge numbers week in, week out, but he added a dimension that could roast single coverage and make plays when Hill/Kelce were not available

They overpaid, but they overpaid with a purpose.
