Mahomes Magic and other are insisting we suck and screwed up because we didn't replace JuJu. Well, who would they have signed if they were GM. This same crowd is insufferable miserable twats because we aren't a top 3 offense even though we are the #1 seed and have the best record in the AFC. They can't enjoy the Chiefs without constant negative complaining. Those of us who think it's more than "the wide receivers suck" are fairly content, happy and optimistic that we will be better and hitting on all cylinders in Jan. if we avoid the injury bug. There is a vast difference between the two camps.

But you are glamorizing that stance while in order to convince yourselves that WRs are fine putting a ton of the blame on mahomes and Reid, and even hitting the point where we're throwing nagy under the bus and glorifying EB. Btw... That's carried into public spaces where the Mahomes is overrated crowd rears their ugly head. And our fans who normally pounce on this are reluctant bc god forbid it implicates our WRs. It isn’t hate, but it’s been casual indifference to a guy we worked so hard to put up on his pedestal.
The "anti WR" crowd isn't anti chiefs. We are relentlessly pro reid and mahomes. And it bothers the hell out of us if we can't meet a bare minimum of talent that even two HOFers can't yet figure out what to do with them. And we believe they are more than efficient game managers who can take what our defense gives them. Most of us believe it is a few small fixes but it begins with the belief that these guys drive the teams success versus using their greatness to carry their immediate supporting casts limitations
