That’s not completely true. George snd Frank were tied at the hip last year. Every practice I attended, Frank worked with George before and after practice on a lot of the specific stuff George has vastly improved on since college.
We can not want Frank back while also acknowledging the positives he brought. [Reply]
I’m not a fan of bringing Frank back…but if we can use us signing him as a means for CJ95 to sign a reasonable market priced extension to stay innKC the next 3 years, I’d GLADLY support the re-signing of Frank Clark. [Reply]
There's no realistic chance that Veach is even considering bringing Frank back, is there? I only saw one story about it, and it was by some dumbass that wasn't even a KC sports journalist. Just some random CBS guy or something. [Reply]

We sign Clark for one year and go, "Hey Chris, look what we did!"
You think Jones is more likely to sign a long term deal if his friend who we just cut less than a calendar year ago gets to play the rest of the season with us?
Probably not. He'd probably want his buddy here for a longer term than just the remainder of this season.

Are you fine with that?
Yeah, probably. Depending on cost, of course.
If signing Frank Clark to a 2 year 5.5m deal would be the trigger for Jones to sign a 3 year 75-80m deal, sign me up and put Frank in the rotation and cut Herring. [Reply]

Both are equally ****ing stupid. I just want to know which stupid path you were walking on.
Every player in this league is responsible for making it on their own merit regardless of who is helping them. A vet isn't gonna decide whether they are good or not and Jordan Love is the perfect example of this.
Vets like Frank show rookies things that have worked for them and things they see through experience but the bottom line is George decides his fate. [Reply]

Great. Fucking fabulous. Thanks, Frank. You've done your job. It wasn't worth the price it cost to keep you last year plus the dead cap shit this year, but you at least did something.
