And it will be on the next guy as well.
As has been pointed out several times, the core of this team hasn't changed in four years - it's just gotten older. We have all these easy fixes, yet the Executive of the Decade wasn't able to fix anything in four years. A QB is part of the problem, but far from the entire problem. |

You guys preached for years about the difference a franchise QB could make and now that we're on the verge of getting one, you say that a QB won't make that big of a difference.

I'm saying that a franchise QB isn't going to make enough of a difference all by himself. Some of you seem to think this is a championship-caliber roster just missing a franchise QB. It's far from that, and 23 wins in 4 years - as many as Cleveland, Buffalo, Oakland, Miami and Jacksonville - who are also missing a QB and according to most don't have the talent we do. Let's use Oakland again. Their QB situation has been even worse than ours over the past 4 years. Coaching has been abysmal. Ownership as well. 98% of this board would say we have a TON more talent than Oakland. Why do they have more wins in the last 4 years? Hint: Because we're not as talented a roster as some of you think. |

There's work to be done, sure. The point is that if teams like the Colts can draft a QB and get some other good players in the draft/free agency to fill in gaps, why the **** can't we? Answer: Because we're the Chiefs and nothing ever goes right and we'll always be terrible boo hoo hoo I'm tired of that ****ing attitude. It's possible to be realistic and still optimistic for the future. |

It is going to take time. Too many people think this roster as it stands is just missing a QB. |

Their QB situation has been just as bad or worse. You say we have more talent. 2 fewer wins over 4 years. |

It's around 70% of the problem I would say if you don't have a franchise QB in this era of the NFL. That would not have been the case in the 90s. It's the case now, however. |

The problem is that good GMs build around playmakers at core positions and Pioli decided to lay up every chance he got. That's ridiculous for a GM paid the way he is to not do that for 4 years. So the good news is, the foundation is set -- good support players, great cap space. We just need a GM now who can put together a few great drafts and make some quality free agency moves. Not as far off as people think. We're in a much better situation than a lot of new GMs walk into. |
