Time to Blow It Up
As disappointed as I am over the last 2 seasons as well as having seen all six of the home playoff loses, I will remain a Chiefs Fan. That being said, it's time to blow it up. The 1 thing all the past loses have shown us is that you have to have a complete team. We have come close with all Defense and no Offense. We have come close with all Offense and no Defense. Heck, we have come close with just great Special Teams. But the teams that advance are always balanced. This year, even early on, you could tell this was not a playoff team. Sure, we have play makers but first and fore most that battle is won by the line play. On the offensive side our live was average on pass protection and well below average on rune support. The team got production by using a complicated scheme that as teams saw they adjusted for. On the defensive side, the line was never able to put constant pressure on a QB and linebackers could not stop running games. There may be disagreement but the Chiefs Secondary was above average. They were just asked to do too much.
We have some young playmakers and some up and coming players. Time to blow this team up for a year or 2. Get Cap space back. Get young hungry players to go with our existing playmakers. Get an Offensive Line that will allow us to run at will. Get a Defensive Line that gets to a QB while smothering runs on the way to him. I watched the 1st two Super Bowls the Chiefs played in. I watched the decline of the 70's, the despair of the 80's. I was there for Martyball. I have seen every Chiefs Quarterback since Lenny. I just want to see the Chiefs in the Super Bowl one more time. I never would have thought that I would see the Royal's in 4 World Series before the Chiefs reached the Super Bowl. |
