Let’s take a miserable trip down memory lane by building a roster of the worst possible Chiefs team using players from the last decade.

There is plenty of optimism surrounding the Kansas City Chiefs and their future.

With the addition of Sammy Watkins and the development of Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs fans are looking for a swell in offensive production, even after an impressive year last season on the offensive side of the football. The Chiefs have also made it clear that they wish to reshape and rebuild the defense with younger and faster players. There is so much to hope for and there is so much reason for optimism this season and the seasons after it.

That being said, I have watched the Chiefs for as long as my brain could comprehend football. I am a 22-year-old and in that relatively short time, I have seen a plethora of disappointment. Because it is the offseason and we won’t have a ton to talk about until training camp, I am going to break down the worst group of starters that the Chiefs have had in the past decade.

This is fun for me to write about, but for you it may bring back painful memories. I am fully aware that this is a process that requires subjectivity and that readers may disagree. Nevertheless, this is an awful, yet merry trip down memory lane. So, let’s get started.

To begin with, let’s make it clear that the players on this list had to receive considerable playing time throughout a season and had to be a starter in at least two games. Alright, we are off and running. Let’s start where everyone starts: The Quarterback.
