Was he juicing it up also? I just looked him up and it appears he put on some muscle and strength from one year to the next. He must have totally done it on vitamins, chicken and potatoes brother.

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.

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.

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”

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.

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