He’s not playing well this year but it’s always funny hearing people bring up his contract. He earned every bit of that contract for being a vital part of giving us a SB for the first time in our lives.

Even some of the scrubbiest of scrubs have had a couple good games.
Clark will be a Legend because he racked up 5 sacks in 3 playoff games, and essentially closed out every win with a sack.
He will be a Legend because he boasted about how easy it was to tackle the beast Derrick Henry, who was crushing rushing records in the playoffs, and he backed up his trash talk by helping us shut Henry down.
He will be a Legend because he was one of the major reasons why we won the SB after a 50 year drought.
Just like playoff, big game Dame will always be a Legend in Chiefs Kingdom.
Legend is different from being One of the Greatest.

I'm not sure we go 12-4 last season and earn the bye without Clark. Remember, he was the guy that generated the pressure on Brady that forced Tom to throw that last ditch pass towards Edelman in the EZ kind of falling/turning away so that it was just a bit short and kind of a duck, allowing Breeland to make that acrobatic stab at it and knock it away to secure the win.
He was also the guy that generated the pressure on Rivers at the end of the Mexico game, that again forced Rivers to throw early and allowed DD to make the pick.
Think he had another pressure in another game that affected the throw forcing a pick/turnover on downs. maybe it was the second game against the Chargers.
He also stripsacked a QB that became an INT on the scoresheet for Nnadi that turned into points for us in one of those games. I'm not even sure that Frank was awarded any kind of stat for that play. But it should've gone down as a strip-sack.
Without Clark we may well have gone just 11-5 or 10-6 last season. [Reply]

This isn’t Haglunds or Houston.
That's great. I love that he did that. But he's paid to do some of that in the regular season too. I don't see mahomes, tyreek and kelce taking the regular season off just because they can turn it on in the post season even though they got big contracts too. [Reply]

Huh? Check my history. I was talking about Clark when he was playing shitty last year. When a player is playing shitty, I comment on it. When they play well, I comment on it.
Do you think he's playing well right now?
Let me guess? I dOnT cAre AboUt ReGulAr SeaSoN.
And if you think that he's going to turn it up and play up to expectations in the post season, what do you think the deal is right now? He's not trying? [Reply]

I liked his attitude and his stats in the post season last year, but I don't remember a play he made that really was a game changer. Ended the games with a sack isnt really all that clutch considering we were up double digits and even if he doesn't make the sack we still win. [Reply]
