It all starts with Clark hunt. The guy took his gig and he went out and made the flashiest move possible. He hired Scott pioli who before we knew anything about the patriot way bullshit was the Michael Jordan of gm candidates. It sounds ridiculous in hindsight but we forget that he wasn't ****ing around from the very beginning. Even though he fell under piolis spell he listened to the fan revolt and he went and put the full court press on Andy Reid. He made damn sure Reid wasn't leaving kc without a contract. And Reid jumped because he believes in the family culture hunt would build after a few tough personal and professional years in Philly.
From there Andy Reid took a winning team and a very good QB and decided that wasn't good enough. With full support from the org he went out and grabbed Patrick mahomes. And then Clark looked at the cap and realized that the guy who built a real good roster wasn't good enough to get the job done, so we fired Dorsey and brought in veach. Both of these moves probably don't occur without full blessing from Andy Reid. And then mahomes extends because the culture is perfect for him. KC is tailor made for a Texas boy. I kinda think it's a little luck that the cornerstones of our franchise, Kelce and mahomes, both also happen to be GOATworthy purely from a leadership standpoint.
When you start with the right culture all the pieces fall into place. It's why we are often picky about the big personalities we bring in. And it's why this team has played confident even when it was easy to point fingers at each other.
