LNBS: Why were the Chiefs bad in the 1980s?
Looking at the roster they had a good secondary (Albert Lewis, Deron Cherry, Kevin Ross, Lloyd Burress) and the receiving corps seemed pretty nice (Stephon Paige, Carlos Carson, Henry Marshall).

I know they never had a great quarterback but I feel like I’m missing something. For the fans who remember, why did they suck?

Top of the list for Chiefs draft busts. The guy is a poser. These days I turn the channel when he is in the booth. If there was one guy I could kick in the teeth it would be him.

Why blame him though? 83 was before my sports memory started, but my dad always says he hated the draft pick at the time because Penn State was not known as a passing team so he didn't get why you want their QB? Seems like you should be mad at the GM.

I first switched from being a Cowboys fan (like my stepdad) to a Chiefs fan in 1982 when we started 6-2 under Marv Levy and even my stepdad thought we would make the playoffs for the first time in my sentient life. We didn't. And we stupidly let Levy go. But I was hooked.

In 1986, I was the only one in my family who thought we had a chance to make the playoffs. We did and my whole extended family got together for the game. I was like, "Ohhh this is what rooting for a winning team is like. This is fun!"

We lost badly and fired the head coach in favor of the special teams coach. It did not go well.

That's basically all I remember from the 80s until 1989, when Marty arrived to introduce us to a whole new kind of pain.

You can bugger right off. You are not the first to use reason and logic to take my hate away. Blacksludge had no interest in putting in the work to play in the NFL. He was a grifter. And don't get me started on Joe Pa and Puss State.

Here's some NFL education from 1983

The quarterbacks drafted after Todd Blackledge in the 1983 NFL Draft were:
Jim Kelly: Selected 14th by the Buffalo Bills
Tony Eason: Selected 15th by the New England Patriots
Ken O'Brien: Selected 24th by the New York Jets
Dan Marino: Selected 27th by the Miami Dolphins

firing your coach after having made the playoffs didn't help things. who knows what they would have been like had they kept makovich as coach?
