Finally, Clark Hunt makes the long-desired move of thousands of fans who bleed red. Okay, so everyone bleeds red, but for some, there’s a strong gold tint to it.
Yes, there were some good years under Carl Peterson. Unfortunately for Chiefs fans, success in the NFL is about Super Bowls… the Chiefs have not appeared in one under Peterson. Not one in his twenty years. With such a tremendous record of wins-losses in the Peterson era, the Chiefs are either the unluckiest team in football or the GM has failed to put together the personnel to even get to the big game.
His biggest flaw has been his choice of coaches. With the exception of Dick Vermeil, not a single coach who has headed up the Chiefs under Peterson has ever been part of the Super Bowl. Vermeil had the best chance of getting there, but he also failed to put together a complete team.
As a Chiefs fan for the entire Peterson era, all I can say today is, “Hallelujah!”
