What I don’t know is how well the Chiefs can execute it.
But what I do know is the signs are everywhere that they have a path to the Super Bowl.
Assuming they are right about Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs have the most valuable thing in the NFL, which is a good quarterback on a rookie contract. Two of this year’s four semifinalists had that setup, and a third, the Vikings, landed on a quarterback who made less than $2 million in 2017.
We’re all guilty of this to some degree, but the NFL is just not as simple as Hire Great Quarterback, Win Games.
