In order to prevent us wasting precious years of Patrick Mahomes' career, Veach needs to work some magic this offseason. What's your advice for him? [Reply]

Possible Hill extension before the cap explodes would add to our 2021 cap space.
Kelces roster bonus
Jones bonus
Lots of ways to clear major cap space if Veach thinks it would be wise to make some moves during an advantageous offseason before the cap goes up and while nobody has much to spend and FA is filled with bargains.
If they decide to restructure Clark, I'm fine with it. It's not the end of the world.
That being said, I'd love to just part ways after this coming season and be done with it. [Reply]

I am STILL reading posts about how the Chiefs won’t have an offensive line to protect Mahomes as a result of losing Fisher, Schwartz, and Reiter.
And I would bet the farm that the week 1 offensive line looks better at those 3 spots than it did for about every game in the 2020 season.
Niang is going to be as good or better than Remmers, probably.
The center is going to be better, or they will kick Allegretti in there and upgrade the LG spot.
And I’m pretty confident LT is about to upgraded too.
And potentially having an offensive line that is capable of really taking advantage of light boxes the Chiefs so often see? That is going to be the rest of the league’s worst nightmare. [Reply]

It’s the counterpunch to the game plan that’s worked against us, for sure. [Reply]

People like that obviously don't know that Veach didn't make these drastic moves, without having an equally drastic replacement plan in place... we're about to have the best O line of Reids tenure in 2021 [Reply]

The same thing happened after Veach blew up the Defense by cutting Berry and Houston and trading Dee Ford. Same exact reaction.
