In Reid's first 4 seasons here, they fielded a top 10 defense every year, more than Marty in any 4 year period. And 3 of those 4 years they were TOP FIVE.

Granted, a lot of those guys were holdovers from the previous regime but those same players won 2 games in 2012 and won 11 the very next year.

If you want to say 2015 was the real start of Andy and Dorsey's players being more prominent than the older guys, well - they won 23 of 32 games in 2015 and 2016.

And Andy coached Alex Smith to a career year in 2017. Some pundits were talking about Smith as a possible POY candidate at the time.

This idea that the Chiefs have EVER had a bad roster under Reid is just pure nonsense.

Under Reid, they've NEVER finished worse than 2nd in the AFC West and those 3 years they finished 2nd just happened to be 2013-2015.
