    I think I just go more “Stupider” reading the title. 😆

    The worst move the Chiefs made is letting Marty get away…hiring Herm Edwards…trading Jared Allen away…and not trying harder to keep Gonzalez..oh and letting T-rich go as well.

    But good things have happened from those occurrences so I can’t say I regret them too much. We got Flowers and Charles from Jared Allen..and Arenas from the TG trade.

    Just remember that what hadn’t happen, the future would have been drastically different.

    1. Not drafting any O-Lineman in the top 3 rounds except Albert and Asamoah over the last 10 years.

    2. Should’ve traded down from #5 in 2010 draft if they wanted a Safety as they could have got extra picks and still landed Earl Thomas, who is just as good of a Safety as Berry is, if not better.

    i agree.

    i wouldve loved to have seen both Pollard and Berry at the Safeties.( But our pass D at safety might suck tho:D)

    How about
    #1 Letting Herm go!
    #2 Letting King Carl go!

    Stupidest means the best thing right?

    Trading for Herm Edwards.

    And keeping Herm Edwards for three years.

    I will argue the Allen Trade was horrible. We did get a adequat LT in Brandon Albert and a good running back in J. Charles.

    Cutting Pollard lit a spark under him which motivated him to work harder. If he was not cut, I am not sure he would be the same safety for the Chiefs as he is for Houston. It is one thing to disagree with the Coach but from what I have heard he did in the locker room (and that is only rumors) He deserved to go. Any one of us would have been fired if the rumors were true.

    Berry will get better. He’s only 21, and was one of the best coverage safeties college football has seen in years, just adjusting to the pro game still. His run support has been a nice surprise.

    I will assume by recent you mean the last 10 years or so.

    Outside the obvious stated above:

    Getting rid of Tyler Thigpen, I really liked him and thought he could be an effective starting quarterback.

    Signing Larry Johnson to a new contract in 2007.

    In recent years….Hiring Herm Edwards.

    But if you go back, my vote would be for letting Hank Stram go, letting Schaaf/Steadman run the show, and the cruddy fifteen seasons or so that followed.

    Either way…:beat_DeadHorse:

    GO KC!! BEAT INDY!!

    I agree … especially trading picks for an unproven coach.

    Although I still think Pollard could have been a good player for us.

    Just for the sake of playing along:

    1) Keeping CP for too many seasons
    2) Keeping CP for too many seasons

    The two above, one in the same, are the birth mother of all other stupidies.

    That said, the past is the past, don’t understand the point of returning, other than general conversation. We have one of the brightest futures ahead than we’ve had in a decade, both offensively & defensely. That’s all that matter’s really.
