It’s been this way for 30 years. That tends to happen when apologists defend every move and hate on everyone who points out the obvious, that this team from top to bottom is run by buffoons. Rinse and repeat, substitute this drafted player for that, doesn’t matter. Same very vocal guys spend years defending players and coaches until they’re gone. This despite overwhelming evidence Grier and everything he touches is a fail. You’d think they’d eventually learn but nope
I understand the tone of this post. As an out of market fan, I see how the KC Chiefs fans react when they arnt making the playoffs.
They stop going to games, they stop wearing their gear, the local media openly complains on a daily basis and the fans stand by the negativity and really show their frustrations.
After last years SB loss the entire community was pissed bc they didn't have all pros along the offensive line.
What did the Chiefs do? they rebuilt the oline in one offseason signing, drafting and trading for olinemen. And the fans here are still pissed they armt the best unit in the league, even though they are significantly improved from last year. They have an all world QB and have been to the playoffs like 15 out of the last 20 years.
Our fanbase just regurgitates the same old "look at the positives from this loss" & "Were still in the rebuilding process" "I will still go to the games and won't complain because maybe one season we might sniff playoff contention."
Our fanbase has 100% enabled this team to be bad. If we actually hit them where it hurts; Ross's pocket, we would see changes. But it won't change, we will blindly support this team because that's what we do. Its like we're in an abusive relationship and don't to anything to fix this relationship. We just take the beating, cower in the corner and keep buying jerseys and going to games.
We need to focus our displeasure and start forcing change.
