Easily overlooked is the team of assistant coaches, position coaches, player-personnel guys, and scouts that Veech has put together....and an environment focused on winning, not egos.

Good point.
I still want Pacheco insurance and another WR to do some of the Rashee Rice stuff.
Because the way he was used last year isn't great over a lot of games for health. [Reply]
Bring back McKinnon and Donovan Smith and sign a veteran corner and we are in business. I think Reid and Mahomes are hungry to get this offense cranking again. It was a struggle to score 20+ last year. Would not surprise me whatsoever if they finish the year with the #1 offense. So much damn firepower. [Reply]

Proven depth at RB is terrible ATM, and I expect Veach to sign a veteran FA, trade, or even sign roster cuts out of preseason.
As it stands right now, LT and RB2 are this rosters biggest concerns.
I like some of the undrafted FAs we picked up.
I do feel like we’ll shy away from the run more and utilize more jet sweeps. However, I wouldn’t mind bringing back Damien Harris. He’s 4 years younger than McKinnon and already knows the system. Plug and play [Reply]

Interesting thought experiment. Two game series. 1970 SB winning Chiefs (magically restored to youth, or resurrected if necessary) iv 2024 Chiefs squad.
Game one 1970 rules, uniforms and officials. No replay. Each member of 2023 squad must smoke two cigarettes during half time. Injured player can ‘juice up” as needed if injured.
Game two, 2023 rules , uniforms, officiating. No smoking in the locker rooms. No drugs. [Reply]

Honestly I think they’d have to call both games at half. Chris Jones would literally kill multiple lineman from the 60’s/70’s. [Reply]
