If not for that trade I would have never watched the Chiefs win a playoff game. NEH-VER. I would compare it to the Payed-a-ton move with Denver. The big difference being the $$$. HOF QB coming back from a serious injury at the end of his career. Yeah, it's risky, but if it pays off who cares?... |

Rothlisberger fell into their laps. They didn't make a move to get him. Tom Brady fell into the Patriots laps. They didn't make a move to get him. That doesn't "prove" great ownership or a great front office: It proves that they they were lucky that those players fell to them. Yet, I've seen people on this forum bash the Giants and Eli Manning and bash the Chargers and Philip Rivers. Hell, at least those two teams MADE something happen. The freaking Chargers took a first round QB in 1998, the 32nd overall pick was a QB in 2001 and they finally got it "right" in 2004. If the Chiefs don't advance deep into the playoffs, I can't imagine a situation where Clark Hunt does not demand that Slick Scotty acquire a first round QB in 2013. |

I think Pioli gets at least 2 more years to put this team together, until the end of 2014 season. Other than the Cassel trade, I think he's done well here. |

I'm not laughing at your statement, it's just that how in the ****ing world can it take SIX YEARS to put together a competitive roster together in KC when teams turnaround in two or three years all the time? |
