    And he was the biggest bust of that first round that included Marino/Elway/Kelly/O'Brien/Eason. Too bad because by all appearances it seemed he would have made a hell of a QB. It just didn't happen.

    Yeah, and i didn't go beyond that to see what year they actually drafted a decent qb.

    After a look the only QB the cheifs have ever taken through the draft to make the probowl in the second round or higher was,, mike livingston, 2nd round 48th overall in the 1968 draft. and the other one was Bill kenney in the 1978 draft 12th round 333 overall.

    their all time passing leader was Len Dawson 28,507 yds drafted by the steelers in 57.

    I guess I do have a question: How is it that the worst team in the entire league get 3 of their linebackers into the Pro Bowl? In fact, they got 6 players placed on the team:

    Tamba Hali OLB

    Justin Houston OLB

    Derrick Johnson ILB

    Eric Berry SS

    Jamal Charles RB

    Dustin Colquitt P

    This, from a what? 2-14/3-13 team?

    They got more players in that the Bengals/Colts/Steelers/Falcons/Bears/Redskins/Packers/Saints/Giants/Cowboys among others.

    Maybe Em Diggy is right. The Chiefs may be a playoff ready team...if they could get a decent coach and quarterback.

    I saw this too and wondered the same thing. The sum or the parts doesn't equal the whole here. It reminds me of the past redskins team or even the eagles dream team. Sometimes having all the good players doesn't produce the results we all think they should.

    Or it could be that offense wins championships...

    Well, they obviously need a coach and a QB. Andy Reid will surely be an upgrade from Romeo...and I suspect they would be major players in the Alex Smith Derby.

    A lot of mocks have them taking Geno Smith #1 overall.

    Who knows? Others say that Geno is nowhere near the potential of an Andrew Luck or RGIII. Hard to say. Is he the potential of a Russell Wilson?
