Kansas City Chiefs acquiring Kenneth Walker was a fantastic signing, he is an elite player. However, in terms of the Chiefs overall success long term he represents wall paper being put over a moldy wall. This is not a Monday after a loss overreaction. I think of people are honest they knew 5-0 start was fools gold. Very bad opponents and K9’s brilliance shielded the truth. They have not meaningfully updated the scheme or talent around Patrick. I am dismayed that once again, and after a 6-11 season, that the staff and front office failed to understand how deep their issues were and still are. By bringing back an old face at offensive coordinator instead of a younger voice from outside the tree to over haul the scheme entirely. By signing older and less capable players based on comfort level with the staff and scheme and then giving those players meaningful snaps over younger and more athletically explosive players. By drafting a cornerback and a nose tackle in round one and two. By allocating huge portions of cap space to again and under performing cogs from prior championship years. I believe this is likely an 11-6 or 10-7 team Many will blame it on “luck” and point to the Thornton injury (no serious team relies their success on a non elite player like Thornton) or point to Rice (he has been injured and otherwise unavailable his entire career) or point to Simmons (a risk they knowingly took) and will continue to use outcomes as shallow copes versus looking at the process and philosophies that have gotten us here, under performing with Patrick Mahomes on his prime The oldest staff in the NFL: - Refusal to move on from outdated scheme - Refusal to underperforming coaches (Toub) - Refusal to move on from aging players and to play younger players - Perpetual mis-allocation of draft resources at the top of draft (FAU, Worthy, Simmons, Clyde, Skyy, Breeland Speaks, Woods??)
