Mark my words, the KC Chiefs will be the favorites to win the SB in 21 and I’m going to go so far as to say they will win it 2021-if we’re talking about the SB next next year. [Reply]

Yea but you're missing in there that we need to improve LB the worst. [Reply]
The only critique I’ll give Dirty Dan (and it’s not really one) is that it suits the D best when the team has someone like Thornhill in front of him. Dirty Dan is great in small doses and in what he does best, but I think he was overexposed a bit in the SB and the 49ers made consistent efforts to target him and did a good job exploiting him until Spags adjusted in the 4th.
Dan has been nails in the last two postseasons, though. No issue bringing him back next year. [Reply]
One position that some believe would be worth even more investment on offense for the Chiefs would be running back. A pairing that seems to make sense is Ohio State’s J.K. Dobbins if he’s available at pick 32. He’s a player they’ve FaceTimed with. One of the draft’s top backs.
I've talked so much shit on Dirty Dan over the years. I swore after this run I was gonna shut the fuck up about him forever. He's important for whatever reason and that's good enough. [Reply]

He's not a terrible coverage backer. He's no safety, though. [Reply]

No we don't use him in that way, but he definitely made some enormous plays for us. And he fits the new, nasty mold of this defense even if just in mindset very well so I'm done with trashing him. [Reply]

I’d let Dobbins play all regular season then come playoff time sit his ass and have D Will come in because if we based his career on just the playoffs he would be a hall of famer [Reply]
This is a very smart move by the Chiefs. If you've watched Brady for the past 20 years, you've learned one thing: a lack of WR weapons means a lack of success. He made chicken salad from chicken shit most of the time but, whenever a receiver went down, it hurt the offense immensely. Now, with Hill, Hardman, and Watkins all returning, if one of them is dinged up (which, given the nature of the NFL, is almost a certainty every week of the season), you'll still field two quality wideouts. Lucky fucks. [Reply]
Sorenson is actually better nearer the LoS. The farther away from the ball he plays, the less effective he is. But within his niche, he was great, especially in the playoffs. And he got better as the season went on. Not to mention the fact that he played every defensive and ST snap throughout the playoffs. That averaged 65-75 snaps a game three games in a row. That's ironman shit right there. I'd love to keep him another year at least. [Reply]
