    I don’t buy it

    Teams have overcome way worse playoff losses

    They are regressing, but that tends to happen when you finally have to pay your QB.

    Chiefs “regressed” when we let go of Tyreek Hill, everyone just forgot because we won the SB that year.

      Chiefs have a better QB, better coach and did a smart thing by investing in D (by drafting amazingly well) to make up for their offense being not as explosive

        The Chiefs got “lucky” that they have been very good at drafting. Hitting on players like McDuffie, Pacheco, Humphrey, Sneed etc. They basically have gotten like 2 starters out of each draft which is a pretty good rate for a team that is picking in the bottom 5 each year.

          Veach has been great at drafting defensive players and OL (and QB per the narrative that he was the guy pounding the table for Mahomes throughout 2016 and 2017), but man, his miss rate on offensive skill players is his biggest weakness. Hardman has been only ever mediocre, Skyy Moore is looking like a bust, and let’s not talk about Clyde. Pacheco is his only real hit, and unfortunately he’s in a low-impact position.

            Rice at least looks like he could be pretty good if you guys would utilize him correctly. not Tyreek by any means, but who is really

      Eh It’s more like they’re draft picks haven’t been too stellar and their defense is just constantly injured. Combine that with the fact that Allen just wants to make the flashy play/ be the hero and it’s not exactly a winning recipe to say the least.

        Allen just wants to make the flashy play/ be the hero

        Or he feels he has to because of the draft picks not panning out and the defense being injured

          It’s just a shit piece written by someone who is trying too hard to make a connection that doesn’t exist. Don’t try to make sense of the senseless.
