So, I'd say those people who just urged patience from the start have by and large seen some validation. Is it complete? Absolutely not. They're still working through stuff and this team very well might not win the SB. In fact, they probably won't.
For me it's always been about the process that Veach undertook. Did it make sense what he was trying to accomplish while balancing resource constraints? And I've always felt that even if this WR corps didn't work this year, I knew what he was attempting to do, and I could absolutely see the logic in it.
6-1 with this team playing well in all three phases feels amazing.

Yes But the bandaid crowd has validation too. I know people are dancing around our initial wr unit not looking great but I just don’t think they have been. Hence why we’re making these adjustments. I think we learned not to take either kelce or mahomes for granted and I’m thrilled that we’ve learned we can’t just throw anyone out there and try to make it work. I think wr was a position very much taken for granted and it isn’t anymore, even for people who’d prefer to use the draft instead of spending money.
It’s a philosophical difference but $10m to me isn’t crippling. And we could have taken a small hit today and offset it by getting rid of Mvs next year.
