John Dorsey Fired...

[Fountain City Blues]

Was 43-21 as a GM after taking over a 2-14 team.

Welp.

If I owned the Texans, Dorsey would be on his way to Houston in a private jet and Rick Smith would be on a Greyhound getting the hell outta Houston!

Just extended Andy Reid and fired John Dorsey in one day? hmmmm... little behind the scenes action going on between the two maybe?

The owner appears to be involved potentially as well with somewhat conflicting reports to muddy the waters further.

Is Andy throwing his weight around.

egad, I hope not

I've seen this movie before... Good luck, K.C.

 

[packerzrule]

pretty shocking considering their success since he took over the GM reins

must be more to it than meets the eye

Something tells me we're never going to know. Maybe it was Maclin dropped. Maybe it was money.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

And the hits keep on coming...

Am I crazy in not being blindsided by this very much?

The Chiefs went after a QB one season too early and signed Eric Berry one year too late and they got some blowback from the Maclin thing.

Its hard to rebuild and compete for the Super Bowl at the same time

Like many Chiefs fans, I wanted a QBotF but not at the cost of 2 1sts

It almost seems like KC is intentionally sabotaging their season lol

I think it'd be hilarious if they still hog up a playoff spot. Entirely possible- maybe even likely depending on one's outlook.

I've still got them winning the division . Weird move though

Obviously with a track record like his, there was some back room, power struggle dealing going on and Dorsey came up on the short end of the stick. Reid was noted to want personnel power in PHI, there had to be people in the building that did not like the move to get Mahommes...maybe not so much the player but the route they took....maybe Mr Hunt was one of those people.

I think they went full rebuild this offseason while maybe the players and owner thought they were going to go all in with the current group to win a Super Bowl.

Stupid as fuck.

Though call on the DIV at this point...I do see OAK coming back to the pack, but I also see KC coming back to the pack, talking about from 12 win seasons. Then DEN maybe picking up a game over LY...the AFCW looks lke a dog fight.

My general concern if the schedule but I'm also concerned with depth.

There is a big difference between the Chiefs team that played the Steelers early last season and late last season. If the roster thats there late last season (minus Maclin, new NT, plus draft picks, plus Derrick Johnson) is able to actually play a season mostly healthy then they could win the division. If anything resembling the secondary issues from the pre Terrance Mitchell games shows up then they could easily finish 3rd or 4th in the division.

It's tight. I think the same could be said for OAK...one or two injuries can take a 10 win squad down to 8 or 9.
