I hear what you’re saying regarding production, but I wonder how much he actually impacted wins and losses (again, see: Any Broncos game).
Chiefs were, what, 9-1 with Hunt? How about without him?
It clearly wouldn’t have mattered last year, because he was out either way. I simply hope it doesn’t matter this year, either. [Reply]

The loss of Watkins impacted the team more than the loss of Hunt. [Reply]
Let's see how this year goes. If he balls out then keep him one more year. If not let him go or maybe he takes a pay cut.
Chiefs are in the driver's seat - good contract.
Oh do you mean after the 2020 season - if he keeps balling out? No, I'd assume we let him go at that point unless he's stayed healthy for 2 full seasons and Tyreek hasn't been extended for some reason. [Reply]

Pretty much this. It doesn't seem that the Chiefs have ever viewed KC as a long-term home for Watkins. And if they can continue to develop cheap, young, high-quality talent, then what's the point? [Reply]

I think the point is, if he, alone, is what caused us to slip to 3-3, we, evidently, need him. [Reply]

Would agree. But the loss of Hunt did have an impact. Hunt was almost like a wr in the spread formation. Also has a little more power then Williams. [Reply]

Kareem Hunt did not have anywhere near the impact of the Broncos game that Mahomes did.
Left handed 3rd down conversion, cross field pass to Kelce, running TD. Did you watch that game? Pat converted 2nd and 30. Second and motherfucking THIRTY!
Hunt had some nice receiving gains, but Williams and Thompson can replicate that.
Pat won us that game. Hunt didn’t have that much to do with it [Reply]
