Fastest TE in history to get 450 receptions and 6,000 yards. Needs 167 more to get 1,000 yards and become the first TE in history to get 1,000 receiving yards in 4 straight years. [Reply]

It's interesting, but just looking back in threads I was involved in, there was a consensus building as early as pre-season 2015 that Travis Kelce may be the most important offensive weapon on the team.
He'd played for 1 year at that point. He hadn't even broken out yet.
Sometimes CP knows our shit. That fascinates the hell out of me. [Reply]
It may have been mentioned earlier but as far as blocking goes, at this point I don't want Kelce sacrificing his body to block much these days, he is way too valuable to burn those snaps. Kelce already takes a ton of hits catching the ball. He is a tough son of a bitch but no need to push the luck having him block DE's on run plays. [Reply]
I've noticed Kelce does a good job of protecting himself while blocking. You don't see him sacrificing his every fiber going up against a DE very often like that dipshit caveman Kittle. I say that with respect 'cause Kittle's a dawg, but he would contribute so much more if he didn't revel in contact in the trenches so much.
It seems Kelce has noted that and we're better for it. [Reply]
They broke the mold when they made this cat. We are truly blessed to have him on our side. One of the best NFL players in the history of the league, and seemingly an even better dude. [Reply]
Been really cool to watch him mature over the years. I remember him getting tons of dumb ass unsportsmanlike penalties, and his fumbling problems early on. He was still great then, just even greater now. [Reply]
This guy is my hero. I was ahead by 25 in my game tonight and I was going against Carr and Jacobs but I still had one ace in my sleeve and that was Travis Kelce. I ended up winning by 1 point. I needed every one of those 4 TDs to survive Carr plus Jacobs having a career fucking night. [Reply]
It's so incredible that we had Tony G (ex-GOAT TE) for so many years and it only took us a few years after he left to find us a guy that's taken his place as GOAT TE.
That means the Chiefs have had the GOAT TE on their roster for 22 out of the last 26 years. That's pretty incredible. [Reply]

Going from Priest to LJ to Charles was also pretty incredible.
Going all the way back to the KC Star Board and the King Carl days, there were two camps of Chiefs fans. There was the '3 yards and a cloud of dust, win with defense, a running game and a safe QB' crowd and the 'Carl needs to get us a franchise QB or it's all for naught' crowd.
I'd say it's fairly clear who had the correct answer at this point. There were some truly incredible careers in KC (Shields and DT also in this group) that were just wasted by bad organizational philosophy.
G'damn Andy Reid did a lot for this franchise. [Reply]

Is there anywhere I can find Andy's salary? I have looked around and can't really find anything solid on it.
It's gotta be one of the top 2 or 3 highest paid right? I mean, it's obviously worth it. [Reply]
