Kansas City Chiefs fans, today was a good day

The KC Chiefs made their fans happy by delivering in a big way at the franchise tag deadline. Dwayne Bowe and Dustin Colquitt each got shiny new 5-year deals and Branden Albert was tagged, which will keep him in Kansas City next season. Read all about Red Monday here. It was a good day to be a Chiefs fan.

A very good day.

@dwaynebowe82 (from October, and not today, unfortunately)

#Chiefs tagging Albert means Joekel is out, which is great. Also, signing Bowe is pretty impressive. Well done, Dorsey.

VERY happy the #Chiefs locked up Bowe and Colquitt and tagged Albert. We have good players already in Red, we needed to keep them. #Done

You should go back 8 weeks and look at your Chiefs-related tweets. It's amazing what Dorsey and Reid have done (off-the-field) for psyche.

I'm just picturing Dorsey and Reid reading twitter, laughing hysterically. #Chiefs

All those moves have already made Dorsey/Reid better than Pioli ever was. So glad we got solid management. I bet we trade down in the draft.

You don't build a franchise by letting your talent get away, way to go #Chiefs giving us all the picture perfect offseason we wanted so far

This is why year in and year out I stick by my Chiefs. We have such loyal fans and we deserved what we got today. Thank you John Dorsey!
