At the time, Smith was perfect for what the Chiefs needed.
He brought them to the POs after his first season.
EJ Manuel was the first QB drafted in 2013, for reference.
The fanbase would not have accepted a rebuild and you know that. There were and are talented pieces remaining from the previous two regimes from when Reid and Dorsey were hired. Pioli ****ed everything up by promoting Crennel as his lap dog and not upgrading over Cassel when it became apparent that Cassel was not starter quality. Haley COULD have had a much longer tenure in KC if his relationship with Pioli wasn't so bad.
