So Dorsey had little in the way of long-term assets to work with yet he found a BUNCH of them in his 5 years. He turned the team over in far better shape than the one he got. He inherited a roster with Hali, DJ, Poe and Houston on defense and dick on offense. He turned over a roster with Houston, Ford, Jones, Peters and an outstanding ascending offense. Unless you're just gonna hand-waive everything and say it was Reid's doing, I don't see how you can say he didn't do a damn good job with the Chiefs in over his tenure.

As soon as he was let go, his “best draft pick” on defense turned into a complete shit head that was so terrible that Andy Reid, one of the best players coaches, couldn’t even handle him. Remember Dorsey saying “He’s a great kid. His character is fine.” ![]() His contracts started to REALLY show how stupid they were when and around the time he got fired. Maclin, Houston, Berry. **** me man.

That's been the part of his career that's been so "dang flustrating" (Herm voice). I don't really understand your point. I mean, that is the issue, right? Staying on the field and out of the tub? Being consistent? Dependable? Isn't that how NFL careers are made? FAX |

And the general rule is that it take 3 seasons before front 7 guys truly hit their stride. At least one season for linemen to get their "NFL strength". With that said, we're 2-3 seasons away from this defense being anything remotely considered good. Assuming of course some big moves aren't in the pipeline.

And I'm not here to shit on Dorsey, but I'm sort of being placed in that position by just trying to be dispassionate about the merits of him and Veach as GMs. Dorsey either drafted or went dumpster diving and found good players at all kinds of positions. Abdullah and Parker in the secondary. Howard and Nunez-Roches at DL. Fulton and LDT. Tyreek Hill was a 5th rounder. Pretty good RBs all around. All except for LB. Outside and inside, for that matter. Josh Mauga was about as good as it got. There was hardly anybody he brought in who could sniff past "Go play special teams then sit your ass down on the bench and pray that Derrick Johnson doesn't get hurt". Yeah, he'll one day draft or find a good starting LB on his own, I'm sure. It might be some time before he's asked to prove that. Schobert and Kirksey are pretty good players. But that's kind of the position he was in with the Chiefs for 5 years, too. Is he going to choose to nibble around the edges and hope he gets lucky? I'm just saying that he had a pretty damn good luck streak going for the other positions on the team, and it's weird that he couldn't capitalize the same way when it comes to LB. |

Yeah im sure you were just clamoring to let Houston walk after a 22 sack season. Surely.

But to sit here and act like he was the best GM in the NFL? Come on, man. He wasn't freaking perfect. This whole Dorsey stuff caught fire again because he's been so active in free agency and people are antsy. It's typical knee jerk reactionary stuff that happens on CP at this time EVERY YEAR. Everything the Chiefs do is wrong, everybody else is doing it right, and it's worse now because one of the guys making all the splash is a former Chiefs GM. That's all it is. Saying the Chiefs are in an arms race with the Browns? The Browns are now an AFC favorite? ![]() Bill Belichik is sitting in his office smiling like Mr. Burns. |

You were implying that he only played hard for a contract year. I answered that assertion appropriately. Now you're moving the goal posts to his health, which is not something i've ever argued with anyone about. His health IS the concern. But you weren't speaking on his health. You were speaking on his desire and alleged improved effort, which is bullshit. He was the same guy he's been for the past 3 seasons.

The Chiefs bet $100 million that Houston was 2014 Houston, when really that was just 2014 Houston. |
