Our thoughts and prayers are with the Chiefs fans

Being fans of the team that had to go thru something similar and survived, our thoughts are with the you

That is all.

Forget football and trash talk. This is the best and classiest fan message board and will act like it.

I just have trouble trying to understand the choice Belcher made. You have an amazing life. Was something that happened to him or between him and his gf so bad that he had to commit murder and suicide? Just doesn't make any sense to me...

Thoughts to the young lady's family/friends and to Chief nation.

Very sad...

the simplest answer, he wasn't in a right frame of mind.

not at all justifying anything. not trying to explain the inexplicable and, honestly, despicable actions that guy took this morning, but the simple and easy answer was for some reason he was presented with a situation that sent him into a tailspin that he couldn't get out of and went out of control, killing his girlfriend. he could have walked away, but he didn't. he could have chosen any of a hundred alternatives, but he allowed himself to get lost in the moment.

probably realizing the magnitude of what he did, he allowed himself to get lost again in the moment and did what he thought would bring the proper conclusion to the matter.

i hate it, but i know it's a part of life and it's always been there in pretty much every culture. doesn't really matter what people think of belcher. the only thing that matters now is that not only is there a team and a fanbase lost, angry, hurting, saddened, and confused, but there are now two families having to deal with this horrible tragedy. one probably feeling guilty for what their son/grandson/brother did...although they shouldn't...and wishing that there was something that they could have done to stop it. the other lost a daughter/grandaughter/sister to a senseless act.

the real victim and the thing that makes this the most saddening aspect is that now there is a daughter left to grow up without her mom and dad sharing her life with her.

My thoughts go out to both families. His as well as hers. You don't do something like this unless you are a seriously troubled individual, and he most likely suffered from clinical depression.

And wow, this had to have been really tough for Romeo and Pioli.

Hopefully the victim's mom is able to care for the baby. Just a tragedy all the way around.

    • This fan base and being cool with mediocrity is infuriating. Making excuses for billionaires who had no business imploding a franchise and making us the Browns of the South.  Good on you man being a glass half full kind of person, I am not. I have zero faith in Tepper "evolving" and quoting Morgan in saying they been easy to work with is not any evidence of that actually happening. I'm sure if I go back and watch Fitt, Rhule and Reich pressers they said the same b.s. towing the line jargon to appease their boss. Stuff like, O they've been great, such great collaboration or some crap. Give me wins that is the ONLY analysis I need to judge are clown of an owner.....  
    • You're equating wins with evolving, but It's a little more complex than that. This will be the new managment's third season. It will also be the third season where the Teppers have taken a step back. If you think that the only way to measure improvements due to seeming changes for the better is wins and losses after only two years--one being a playoff berth, "limping" in there or not, then perhaps you're being more emotional. By most analysts' measure, Dan Morgan has the Panthers moving in the right direction. He can only get us to where we need to be with the blessing and cooperation from the owners. He has said several times now, that they are easy to work with. Rhule, Reich and Fitterer did not say that. In fact, you could literally see the pressure put upon them by their countenance.  Bottom line: it has been reported that they have changed and everything that we've seen (and not seen) is indicative of that belief. We were a playoff team, and we had a good showing. With the moves that have been made this offseason, and last offseason to be honest, NFL types are expecting the Panthers to compete for the division the upcoming season, and that's even before the draft. This is all with a QB that is still a question mark.  Rome wasn't built in a day. David Tepper has seemed to internalize that, and now many fans need to appreciate the same. It could be argued that we didn't have any business winning the games we did in '24 or '25, much less make the playoffs this past season. A positive transition appears to be afoot. We are close to becoming a perennial contender, and that's thanks to a developing culture change that is being allowed to happen. This was not the case when the Teppers, particularly David, were fumbling around trying to figure out how to run an NFL franchise.   
    • Dude is a beast on ST. I like the emphasis on special teams with him and Simmons.
