So there's an article on NFL network saying that Orlando Brown is expected to sign for 6 years $145 mil.
That comes to $24.16 mil/yr and makes him the highest paid offensive lineman in football. It also would give him the 19th highest salary per year in the NFL
How would you feel if that is the contract he ended up signing?
I'm fine with it. He is a top 5 LT and he's only 26 next season. A young great LT is a guy you can't let leave. [Reply]

At least put Brown and Wylie on the bench one series to make a point they need to play better.
What, are you trying to get Mahomes killed? There are other ways to drive the point home without that. [Reply]

Brown and Wylie should be on the ****ing bench right now-period. They have been horrendous this year. Seeing Mahomes limping around after Brown whiffed for the 20th time in the game is unacceptable. Will Andy make any changes-nope.
:-) Who are you going to play in their stead? [Reply]

Dude, this isn't pee wee league football.
These are grown men.
If you're going to bench them, they stay benched. And you have to live with whatever happens next.
You and I may be frustrated enough to so, but we don't watch practice. We don't know what the back-ups look like. [Reply]

These guys are terrible almost every week.
So you think that benching the best 2 OT that we have to teach them a lesson is not more apt to get Mahomes injured? That would be putting Mahomes at more risk.
Since we have all watched these turds for far to long now how could anymore think their backups would not be worse and that they opposing team would not try and take advantage of that situation. [Reply]
