I'm here to listen about the opinions that others have to share in regards to the Chiefs. And of course to offer mine as well.
I root for them all the time because I want to see them hoist the Lombardi trophy. I have stuck with them through thick and thin. I've been a fan for the last 25 years which I know is nothing compared to some folks but I do empathize on some of the pain and joy. Some of us still haven't seen the ultimate joy of winning that SB mainly because the Chiefs haven't had the right QB/coach combo.
I was just implying that moves like these express little significance in regards to winning. We've seen the Chiefs plug a lot of holes in recent years. Has it proven to really matter? No. Because again they didn't get the right QB/coach combo which outweighs anything else.
You could still have holes on your team, but great QBs like Manning and Brady have proven to be ideal in masking holes on their team. A great head coach does wonders for your team outside of player personnel. I don't just focus on players anymore. I focus on the intricacies of the game. I read a thread here a while back started by a man named "rabblerouser" and he said something that really stuck with me in that a good head coach comes down to one bottomline, the ability to display good game management skills. To me this means a lot of things, for one, being able to game plan well and make good in-game adjustments in order to counter against the opposition. Being able to manage a game clock. Being able to make the right play calls in critical situations. Or just being able to adapt in general. Our coaching staff does not have the intelligence to perform such things. But what I'm getting at is stuff like that outweighs potential player personnel transactions like Mychal Kendricks by a wide margin.
Reality is, every team has holes but it's about getting the most important aspects of your team down in order to compensate for those holes. That's what I've learned from watching football over the years. That's why I don't stress about potential moves like these anymore. That's just me.
