This is another in a season-long series on the Kansas City Chiefs search for a franchise quarterback. It appears weekly on Thursdays throughout the 2015 season. Steve DeBerg had taken the Chiefs as far as he could, and it had been a pretty long trip given from where they had come. They were a contending team, only a quarterback away, more than one pundit had said. The future had arrived, it not accompanied by a “quarterback of the future.” DeBerg had never been bashful insisting he was a “system quarterback” and once he got the hang of Schottenheimer’s system the Chiefs were in reasonably good hands, big hands, as it turned out, really big hands, since his were among the largest in the NFL for a quarterback.
