"All" is one of those 'leading with your chin' words I was referring to.

Hard to maneuver around that one. All, always, never, only, etc... - all words that pretty much lock you in and make any argument incredibly easy to defeat.

If you say it "Only happens when..." and someone can demonstrate 1 time out of 10,000 when that wasn't the case, then technically you're just wrong. You led with your chin and got punched in the jaw.

Get your gloves up. "It's primarily because of our success" or "It's largely..." or even "almost entirely" or predominantly or any other $10 word you want. Gives you an actual basis of debate.

But when you start saying all and only, you're probably a dead man walking.

Because there are CHIEFS fans that wanted the guy vivisected. And they certainly don't begrudge the chiefs for their success. So it's clearly not all because of the Chiefs success.

Its a large and, IMO, the primary reason for it. But it isn't the only reason.
