Yeah it would really suck to draft guys that will protect the #1 asset the Chiefs will ever own.

Every team is injured. The Colts were battered by injuries on D.

We need better players up front, on both sides of the ball. You can’t expect Pat to keep bailing this team out of their own mess. We are thin everywhere on this roster, except WR. Getting Ty back next week will be awesome, but I’m pretty sure we’re going to keep dealing with Pat’s injured ankle all year, especially given the fact that we can’t figure out a way to run a more balanced offense by running the ball. It’s criminal that Shady got zero carries tonight. He’s been our best back this year.

Veach needs to hire one of those Colts analytics guys. They would have explained the absurdity of giving up draft picks for the right to pay Frank Clark what he wanted. MLB GMs have finally figured out stuff like that.
[Reply]

Yep, and the Colts somehow plug in a bunch of nobodies on defense and still play hand us our ass.

Ballard offered to send Houston to KC for 2 firsts and a 2nd. Veach wanted to call around a bit first.
[Reply]

They'd immediately suggest we fire Veach.
[Reply]

For sure. I think Ballard's done a way better job of finding depth in the draft though. Just go look at their draft picks the last three years. Got Leonard in the 2nd round. Got Mack in the 4th round. They've had somewhere around 30 picks under Ballard and most of them are in the league playing somewhere. They've got 4th-7th round picks out there contributing. Almost their entire back 7 on defense and pretty much their whole second defensive unit are Ballard picks.

Veach is riding on his Mahomes pick success.
[Reply]

What Mahomes pick success? John Dorsey is the one who made the trade up and then selected Mahomes.

This narrative that Veach is 100% responsible for Mahomes is fucking ridiculous and is a blatant PR attempt by the Chiefs to make him look better than he actually is.
[Reply]

Three years after the Steelers playoff loss and still the run D looks like sh!t. They have acknowledged this weakness yet haven't fixed it.
I shudder to think how Veach will manage the roster after paying Mahomes.
[Reply]

This roster has been decaying under Veach.

Through 5 games the Chiefs:

Can't stop the run
Can't rush the passer
Can't cover
Can't run the ball
Can't pass protect.

Literally the only thing they've done well thus far is throw the ball and Mahomes has been banged up and a bit off and Watkins and Hill are down.

We had multiple guys in the front office that knew what they were doing, we kept the one that didn't.
[Reply]

John Dorsey, Chris Ballard & Brett Veach.

We kept Brett fucking Veach.

Great job Clark on letting Ballard walk before firing Dorsey because he challenged your outsized ego. You let plan B walk, got emotional and fired plan A and now you’ve been caught holding the bag with Plan C. Great fucking job jackass.
[Reply]

No discipline either in all three phases. I simply cannot accept that Reid is a great coach when his teams are constantly and heavily penalized.

The only way we have been winning is building up leads through the brilliance of our QB and hoping that the other team panics trying to catch up.
[Reply]

Brett Veach has had 2 offseasons and all I've really seen him do is spend a shit ton of money and draft picks for marginal return...

If he hadn't stepped into Patrick Mahomes being the QB on an already made team by John Dorsey we'd see how bad he really is at this job.

Dude might be Ryan Grigson 2.0
