and another drop lol. Chiefs really blowing their elite D by not giving Mahomes a single weapon. They definitely should've traded for a WR at the deadline, plenty of futures they could've traded. Also Kelce has not been the same player this year, whether that's because of his girlfriend or injuries piling up, idk, but definitely a concern for the Chiefs. Would be much less of one if they didn't have WRs as bad as ours.

Kelce is 34. It's normal.

I really don't understand how KC didn't find a way to keep Tyreek and pay him. If you can pair Mahomes and Tyreek for the foreseeable future you do it. Because if Kelce retires what do they have for weapons? Rice looks like something to work with for the future but what else?

I just saw where this one was headed when KC was absolutely dominating the game but only up 17-7. It felt like they should've been up by three TDs. Seems like that often comes back to bite you in the ass and it but then tonight.

That stat they showed were KC has scored the fewest 2nd half points of everyone in the league, 53, was crazy to see. Teams are eating Kelce alive in the 2nd half of games and challenging the other receivers to beat them, and they can't. Reid also still falls back on his tendency to abandon the run game, which is not a great plan this season.

Their wrs and running backs are bottom of the league. I'd honestly take our groups over theirs and ours suck

Eventually QB's will learn the lesson Brady tried to teach them.  If you want to win multiple championships, you have to take less money so the team can surround you with weapons.  As great as Mahomes is - and he's a far more talented QB that Brady - he can't do it alone.

Brady had a wife far outpacing his earnings anyway so it didn't matter. Maybe kelci can take a pay cut next year but I don't think Mahomes wife can offset his lack of income

You missed the point.  Brady could be single and never work another day in his life.  His wife's earning potential was irrelevant.  Brady wanted to win championships.  He took less money to facilitate that.

We hear players talk all the time about how they want to win championships, compete at the highest level, etc.  All the talking points you expect.  The difference is that most of them don't really mean it.

Nah he ain't doing that without his wife having a damn near billion in the bank

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
