Dorsey gone?

Per 610.

The ****?

[thegame214]

I can remember the week before the playoff game against Steelers the Dorsey to GB was firing on all cylinders and a fan thinking this is the last thing we need to worry about right before a home playoff game. I know it had no effect on the outcome but from a PR standpoint it certainly didn't look good given the timing.

If you are trying to marry your girlfriend and you hear rumblings she wants to eventually get back with her ex, you probably say screw this im out to save face. I think hunt wanted to gamble on Dorsey given his history so let Ballard go and when negotiations came about the ex came back into the picture (GB). Hunt isn't an idiot he knows what he had with Dorsey so I can't imagine what put him over the edge besides purely emtions. GMs make bad deals (Osweiler) but if their intention is in the right place the owner buys in. To say let's start over tells me there was a wolf somewhere and as we saw, many decided to leave through lateral moves or even demotions. I support Clarks call on this despite all the facts, I just wish we knew what he did.

Whether it's with the Chiefs remains to be seen but it's difficult for me to believe that Clark doesn't have a plan in place.

He may but I can't believe this was plan A. I would imagine Ballard was plan B, with Veach being at best plan C.

As recently as a week or so ago he was seeking to extend Dorsey, sufficient that Dorsey was 'blindsided' this week, and Clark had the time to do a top-down review AND put 'a plan in place' to improve the team from it's current state?

Man, there's homerism, and then there's fanfic.

Running this theory seems to me like the guy who proposes to his GF at a sporting event. Then when she runs off the court in embarrassment, he proposes to the nearest usher like that was his 'plan' all along.

What really has me worried is the complete overhaul of the personnel department. Dorsey is gone, Ballard is gone, McCracken and Lewis are gone.
4 top guys from a highly successful front office gone.

Veach is an up and coming guy, and I trust the up and coming guys Dorsey hired last month, but they haven't proven anything yet.

There isn't much out there, but everything I've read about Veach is that he's sharp and can identify talent. Hopefully Andy and Clark find someone who can keep this thing going.

Hell of a time to flush the front office with a rookie QB waiting in the wings.

Good thing our offensive roster is really young. Schwartz is the oldest piece.

We also have a really nice young core on defense.

As long as the replacement is competent and Mahomes is the real deal, we should be fine. This still sucks though.

That figure is absolute horseshit.

What?

It's exactly how much dead money KC has had since Dorsey got here

Yet we still don't know how he can handle contracts.

The point I was attempting to make is that it would be surprising if Clark Hunt didn't have a Plan B option in place.

He's never been one to make hasty decisions in the past so if this decision was made out of spite or anger, it would be his first.

Competent will only last so long in such a competitive division.

**** man. Mahomes is not enough. Look at GB for the perfect example. They're competent and have Rodgers and it's still not enough.

This is really disheartening. A front office that gave us bottom barrel gems and cheap all pro's would have been so beneficial for Mahomes going forward.

What I didn't like in that 30 for 30 was Buffalo firing Bill Polian after a dominant 4 year stretch. Didn't exactly lead to further success.
