Ok, guys. Frank has stopped drinking and is serious about this season. I can’t stop drinking for more than 8hrs at a time so Clark’s abstinence is notable and impressive. He and Andy had a heart to heart, shared some cheeseburgers (Frank is probably now also vegan and went Impossible Burger), chugged some Mr. Pibb, and came to an understanding.
Watch his presser from today. It’s probably one of the most real and honest things I’ve seen from a player. If you’re rooting against Frank Clark after that you’re probably either repressing some demons in your life or are related to Red Dawg.
This is a safe space to celebrate Frank Clark this season. 8 sack minimum. Let’s build this guy up rather than choosing to spend the season breaking him down.
Join me on the Shark bandwagon. There’s blood in the water.
And the obligatory: keep doubting Frank fucking Clark. [Reply]

the best parts of frank clark left when he ruined both of his arms in seattle by playing with a pair of torn UCLs all season in 2018 - he hasn't had a bull rush to speak of since then
in KC he's been blowing hamstrings left and right
i'll be surprised if he's not on the injured list by the end of preseason let alone get anywhere close to having a decent season (7-8 sacks)
best case scenario, and what i think the chiefs are banking on, is he plays half the snaps, rotating with Dunlap, and gets 4-5 sacks on half the snap count he had last year, making him more valuable overall [Reply]
I kinda like the idea of having two crafty old vets on the defense so that late in the game when you got to have a stop to end the game they can get a sack or hurry or at least make the QB move around and disrupt and get it done. The 13 second game still bothers me even though the Chiefs won simply because they couldn't get a stop to save their ass in the last 20 minutes of the game [Reply]
