Chiefs fire DC Bob Sutton

It was inevitable, at least he gave Andrew Luck the 10-38 comeback, and Brady his trip to the 9th SB before he left.

I think Kris Richard would be a fantastic signing for them if they did. But if Andy Reid wants an experienced face, Marvin Lewis should be at the top of the list, more so than Rex Ryan, IMO.

Everybody is going to make this about the AFCCG, but the Chiefs have struggled on defense, especially situationally, a lot over the years.

If they did not do this, Mahomes was heading down the "lack of defensive support" road like Peyton in his early days.
