Hot take. The Chiefs fan base is what is wrong with this team.
Pressure from media and fan base is why we don't have Marcus Peters, Kareem Hunt and almost lost Tyreek hill. Pressure from the media led fan base is why we again have to completely start over from a 3-4 to 4-3 defense and got rid of Dee Ford and multiple draft picks and paid Frank Clark the money we should of paid Chris Jones. We were only a good corner and linebacker away from having an improved the defense from last year. We molly wopped the Colts in the divisional round and was only one play from the superbowl the next game. We could of just changed the d coordinator and added a player or two not changed the whole freakin scheme. We have changed head coaches, gms, coordinators, players 20 plus times since the 70s only constant is ownership and the fickle,impatient, intolerant fanbase it caters too that always wants some one fired [Reply]

How about when we ran Vermeil out of town after the no punt playoff against the colts? Could he have done better the next year? Im already hearing fire Andy, someone has to be accountable. Why cant we hold ourselves the fan base and media accountable for the pressure we apply to make rash decisions from year to year?
we didn't run Vermeil out of town. he was back for two more seasons. :-) [Reply]

**** him. So glad he's gone. Hate his wanna-be-thug-thug guts.
We win the afc last year with Peters on this team. Ill take his bullshit for another year under that rookie contract for one freakin super bowl in my life time. By the way would have the Patriots got rid of peters to pacifying the fan base? [Reply]

The only real pressure that the fans can apply is by not buying tickets. Whining and crying (something that Chiefs fans seem to enjoy) on social media isn't going to do anything. Kareem Hunt was let go because he lied to the team, the fans wouldn't have cared it the Chiefs kept him. I block what Tyreek Hill did out of my mind on Sundays.
It's all about the dollar signs... $$$$$$$ talks.
Already? Reid has been here eight years now. He has his own people in place at GM, coaching staff, etc. The team has no depth. [Reply]

Your right. They went 10 and 6 then he retired cause he didnt make the playoffs and the narrative was that his message had worn thin and he couldn't coach defensive just like Andy. So we started over again with who and why? [Reply]
Maybe this place really is slipping. OP should be getting crushed like the Chiefs D line. This is possibly the dumbest take I’ve ever read on CP and that includes all Ubeja threads. [Reply]

So fans have no power? Its a dumb thread because people around here i.e. the fan base love laying blame and not accepting any. [Reply]
