Chiefs cornerback Marcus Peters’ frustration following the Chiefs’ 38-31 loss to the New York Jets didn’t end immediately after the game, it appears.
According to a report by NFL Network’s Mike Garafalo, Peters also had a verbal altercation with an assistant coach on the bus during the team’s ride to airport following the game. The assistant coach was not named.
The Star reported Thursday that Peters’ suspension was related to his decision to leave the field prematurely following the flag toss. The club viewed that as a team issue, as opposed to the penalty flag toss, which it deemed a league issue that Peters was ultimately fined $24,409 for on Friday.
The NFL Network report cited Peters’ decision to leave the field as a reason for the one-game suspension coach Andy Reid levied on him earlier this week, with the verbal altercation also being a contributing factor.
The Chiefs still had a little over two minutes left to tie the game, and Peters returned to the sideline –– albeit with no socks –– as the offense made its last-gasp attempt. But the drive stalled out, and the Chiefs lost for the sixth time in seven games.
Peters’ suspension means the Oakland native will miss the Chiefs’ showdown Sunday against his hometown Raiders. He was not allowed to practice this week and will forfeit a game check. [Reply]

I'm hoping the Chiefs don't take a chance that a 1st round pick is better than everyone else in the league (except MP) over the last three years.
Valid point but he isn't graded out as #1 CB in the NFL as this would indicate. Yes, I agree it would be a major loss that needs to be avoided if possible but if not then minimize losses. [Reply]
The Chiefs will never get equal value in a trade for a player like Marcus Peters. They'll always be the loser of that trade. Although the team has been a loser for almost 50 years at this point so I guess that's why some fans like you are OK with that. You're used to it by now and don't know any better.
Having a HOF caliber CB for 5 years for peanuts is better value than any other team could get if he leaves.
It’s pretty simple math. If Peters doesn’t want to sign with us you franchise tag him after his 5th year and get value. High 2nd rd (at worst)>>>>3rd rd comp pick.
You dummies tend to forget that if Peters is leaving, we might as well get capitol to try to either replace him or build other parts of the team since at that point, Mahomes will get paid a shit load of money and we will need cheap talent on rookie deals.
The difference between a high 2nd/1st compared to a comp pick is huge. Chris Jones was an early 2nd rd pick and Steven Nelson was a 3rd rd comp. [Reply]

If he’s leaving sure, try and get something for him.

Here is how we know...
She had been posting regularly for a good 2-3 weeks, repeatedly intimating that she knew him very well, like close friend or relative well... when pressed, she wouldnt say exactly what capacity, only that she knew the young man very well
Then our West Point cadet poster 'Pointer' posted a thread about an upcoming room inspection he had, and how he was allowed one personal item in his closet so he chose a Chiefs jersey to play a joke on the Broncos loving guy who would be inspecting his room
She posted in that thread something to the effect of '24 year Air Force veteran here, your room looks great, good luck!' or something like that
So I decided to take that bit of info and get nosy with it, I googled 'Philip Gaines military upbringing' and instantly came across this from Chiefs Digest
Lo and behold, both his mother and father were... 24 year Air Force veterans
Not only did she subsequently admit she was his mother to the board, but we have traded numerous PMs over the last few months that prove to me without question, she is exactly who she says she is [Reply]

Sweet.....was not aware of all of that. The only thing I knew was the back and forth that happened between her and George. [Reply]

"Now that this has happened I'm good with it and actually feel better, like getting rid of an ex-girlfriend that was dynamite in bed but overall just a horrible person"
