His wife and family are embedded in Kansas City.

This just doesn't make since to me other than John Dorsey and Clark Hunt didn't see eye to eye and Clark wanted it his way. They must have disputed more than once and you just don't cross the boss.

Could be possible, but if Clark is only willing to work with "yes men," then he's a terrible ****ing boss to begin with. Most owners I know would rather someone in a high-ranking position that is willing to say "no" and offer legitimate rebuttal, than someone that kisses their feet. It's a counter-balance for the stupidity of trying to run a large company solo.

This entire move smells, and I really don't think that the reasoning behind it could be legitimized. The conjectures that make the most sense are all terrible reasons to fire one of the best GMs in the league. Moves like this just aren't made, especially now.

The Chiefs aren't in cap hell, so I dispel that theory. They may have mismanaged contract negotiations, but that position was addressed a month ago. They can cut some fat on the roster with Smith, Hali, Johnson, and so forth next season and be in prime shape cap-wise.

Dorsey and Reid have a friendship that extends decades longer than Reid's closeness to Maclin, so I dispel the theory that Maclin's cutting enraged Reid to the extent he'd ask for his buddy's firing.

We'll never know.. Point is he is gone and it should not have happened. But regardless we have to move on and get ready for the season.

If these two conspired to get him fired..then **** them. They both got stellar contracts well beyond what they have delivered.

I'd go so far as to say Dorsey could have used their money to make the team better...ungrateful brats.

Yeah, if they're going to be that big of prima donnas, when they aren't even on the right side of the ball to be 'the most important position in all of sporting endeavor,' forget dragging Alex to anything, they better perform well enough to drag JaFatass Russell at QB and Hurtis Penis at RB to the SB.

I have a lot of problems the past x0 years that make it hard to move on from shit like this. I mean, you finally have a solid coach and a really good GM, and you **** it for what exactly? There's literally no logical connection to hang your hat on. If Clark hires Veach, I might have some hope. If he doesn't, I'll be quite hesitant to have any.

The plot is getting progressively more thick...you have two veteran "superstar" locker-room leaders, who both got massive contracts, not showing up for practice, Reid being pissy.. Maclin being a surprise cut and Charles disgruntled...then the stellar GM is fired out of nowhere.

I guess these two liked being 2-14....idiots. What do they care..they got payed.

Shit is getting ****ed-up in Chiefland. Sounds like Hunt was trying to hold the locker room together...and Dorsey got fired for being a great GM. Belichick can get away with impersonal roster decisions because he has the trophies..and the owner has his back. In KC it's all about the "feels" and mediocrity.

The players now dictate who makes the decisions...Hunt is a rich-kid pussy. Dorsey was 22-4 over the last 26...how does that get you fired? You should be untouchable. This is a blackeye...spineless ownership.

Dorsey's job was to look after/protect his TEAM...not just a marketable cancer survivor. How is he supposed to know if the cancer will reemerge? Give him a shitload of guaranteed money only to have him vanish again? He looks like a fool in that situation..thats the type of shit that gets you fired (ironically).

This cant be true..can it? Berry still pouting and missing practice after the contract they just gave him?

Dorsey took a 2-14 team and flipped it into a 12-4 record with serious injuries to their star players. Props...his depth made that happen. Reid too but there was SB caliber chemistry there.

This was a terrible scenario...Hunt's going to regret it.

This likely came down to money or loyalty going forward (as in potentially leaving for GB), and I doubt anything else.

Good to see some spine showing up in here.

Eventually, all of the details are going to come out. And when they do, I doubt we'll find Hunt on the right side of history.
Why?
Because typical Chief is typical. And, as you have already pointed out, the whole thing is beyond all logical possibilities and it smells to high hell.

Honest to God I'd rather have John Dorsey as GM than Andy Reid as HC and let Dorsey pick our next HC and continue drafting for our future.

I loved Dorsey as much as the next guy. But to think we're just going to become irrelevant is nonsense. He wasn't a one man show.. outside of Ballard we have the same personnel and scouting guys. They wouldn't have let Dorsey go if they didn't have someone ready to replace him

[Red Dawg]

I feel like we are missing a key piece to the mystery that we may never get. There we no signals of this happening, all information pointed to an extension. It feels like Clark wanted assurances that he wouldn't bail for GB in a few years and maybe Dorsey wasn't willing to sign a deal that guaranteed it.

I don't like the move but the HC is more important in my book. Players are not drawn to a GM like they are an HC. Veech will do fine and surely will get the job.

Is it like pulling teeth to get information out of him?

I love how people miss that Clark was the guy who hired Dorsey, he has the ability to hire another top notch GM.

Dorsey was good, he wasn't the best and there are numerous examples of bad contracts.

He was good, he isn't irreplaceable.

It was a copy and paste from a post from RunKc in this thread who knows someone who works at Arrowhead.

Clay tweeted it and has been spreading it everywhere as Gospel.
