I was dating a girl who had Georgia tech tickets while he was there and he was the highlight of those teams. He is also apparently a very good smash brothers player 

He was also an active participant in the misinformation campaign around the attempted Kansas abortion ban back in 2022. One thing to have an opinion/support a position, another to spout the inaccurate bullshit that group was putting out there in an attempt to overturn the choice.

never forget: most of the 9/11 terrorists were engineers

I mean, Kicker might genuinely be one of our 2 or 3 strongest positions over the last few seasons as sad as that is.  We've lucked into some pretty good ones with Gonzalez/Pineiro.  I dunno how much a marginal upgrade at Kicker would've moved the needle for us.

Yeah, but it’s a prime example of how bad our organization evaluates talent and the mismanagements of the salary cap.

I really don't think it was that bad if you objectively evaluate all of the details at the time.  As someone else pointed out, it was reported that Butker struggled in camp to separate himself from Gano.  I think it makes sense why we were reluctant to just hand him the starting job right off the bat.  We signed him to our Practice Squad (didn't just outright cut him like some people claim) and the Chiefs only claimed him because their starting kicker got injured.  It's not like everyone in the league were drooling at the uber talented Harrison Butker and immediately pounced as soon as we foolishly stashed him on the Practice Squad.  So I don't even know how much credit I'm willing to give to the Chiefs' talent evaluation when they ostensibly would've kept rolling with Cairo Santos all season long if he hadn't gotten injured.  Seems much more likely that they just happened to luck into a really good kicker with Butker.

Where I do think we screwed up with Butker, was not giving him enough opportunities in the actual preseason.  We alternated Gano and Butker all preseason instead of just giving Butker all the kicks in order to give him the opportunity to win the starting job, as I believe we should've done since Gano was more-or-less a known commodity.

Can we stop with the “what could have been” and look to the future? I mean this group (forum) acts like a guy who dated a hot girl once and keeps reminiscing of the “good times”

When there is something to look to, sure. At the moment though it's all deja vu.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
