Hey, Chiefs, where is our Miles Austin?

Following the Chiefs is an education in the consequences of bad management.

Yesterday an undrafted receiver from Monmouth College torched the Chiefs’ secondary for 250 yards and two scores. Miles Austin‘s performance begs a question: When was the last time the Chiefs’ front office found such a diamond in the rough? Has there been anyone since Brian Waters? Golly, that was nine years ago.

Fans not done with the pain from yesterday loss should click to today’s widely read Monday Morning Quarterback column at SI.com. There Peter King does a back-of-the-envelope analysis of the Carl Peterson-authored trade that sent defensive end Jared Allen to Minnesota.

Allen’s been making a bunch of plays for the Vikings. But what Chiefs fans may not know is that the Vikings also received a sixth-round pick in the deal.

Minnesota used the pick to select a center. Who starts. On a 5-0 team.
