Whatever. I'm wearing my Mahomes headband and I'm along for the ride.
I just told a friend who’s a Colts fan, I don’t think half our defensive starters from last year will be starting next year. And I’m ok with that. I love that they finally have balls to gut the whole defense.
I love this signing. Was a fan of his coming out of college. Looks like a young EB

They will kill a poisonous snake or an animal 10 times their size and then play golf with their victim's freaking spinal cord.

Sweet Daddy is hoping Honey Badger decapitates Dee Ford and beats Eric Berry to death with his skull. That's the resourcefulness some Chiefs fans think this team needs.

It's like that game where you stack the blocks and try to remove one without tipping the whole damn thing over so you lose control over your fragile emotions and start hurling blocks at your beautiful wife in a disproportionate rage. It's like that.

I think Honey Badger could decapitate Ford in SF or GB, run back to the overpass to beat EB's ass with the skull and spinal column, then hustle back to the huddle in time for the next play, yes.
On one hand, TM is an outstanding Safety and he plays the position we have the greatest need at. I'm not gonna be mad at elite talent being added to the team.
On the other hand, holy shit did we overpay for him. Not just a little... a LOT when you consider that his contract is little more than a stopgap with an exit after two seasons. If KC was looking for a stopgap solution... why not go harder on Weddle who signed a 2 year deal for $10.5? Sure, Weddle is 34 and the Honey Badger is 26 but is he really worth an extra 9 million per season?
I sure would have loved to see that $9m go towards another FA like Za'Darius Smith who can rush the QB from the outside... especially with Houston now gone.

If you haven’t noticed early free agency is over paying. Just part of it. Weddle is from the west coast, he wanted to go there
