I don't blame Clark Hunt if his directive is to win games ASAP, even if you're not a real Super Bowl team. What matters is if we stubbornly stick to this team and say a playoff win or two is good enough. Alex Smith was the best safe option out there. He can definitely lead us to a playoff win. To win super bowls, we need to do better. I'll give this front office a year or 2 to figure that out.

Did you see the Ravens game in 2010? We couldn't even ****ing fill Arrowhead for a goddamn playoff game.
Arrowhead is probably permanently deflated, and I think it has to do with the fact that there aren't enough people in KC rich enough to blow that much money on attending a game in an era when you can watch that shit nearly ANYWHERE. You don't even need cable TV to do it.
I'm not from Kansas City. I haven't been to a game in Arrowhead since 2003. Clark Hunt may worry about filling the stadium, but what REALLY matters is growing out your product.
People become fans of teams when they have STARS. That's how the Packers are able to make it in tiny ass Green Bay, WI. They have stars. They invest in those stars. And when their stars get old, they go out and get MORE stars.
Alex Smith is not a star. He's an insult. And that's why nobody will ever give a shit about the Chiefs, which DRAMATICALLY affects the dollars and cents.
