Do you hear that? That’s the collective sound of Kansas City Chiefs fans singing something along the lines of “Ding-dong, the witch is dead. Which old witch? The Wicked Witch. Ding-dong. The Wicked Witch is dead.” The reason for their celebration? Carl Peterson has resigned.
The last few seasons haven’t been the most pleasant for the general manager and now the Chiefs are in rebuilding mode because of that. As you can imagine, the fallout in this part of the country is going to be considerable. Peterson’s resignation comes on the heels of Kansas City’s collapse against San Diego.
Peterson has been with the Chiefs since 1989 and during his tenure, he oversaw one of the more explosive offenses the league has seen. Unfortunately for him, that did not translate to postseason success.
