DT needs more bodies.
Runningback room is a mess.
Cornerbacks look strong, linebackers could be great, safety is fine if we sign Thornhill. Interior OL is top notch and Mahomes is a top NFL QB with the right tools.
This is far from the strongest roster in the NFL. This roster is pop warner compared to Buffalo. Buffalo has a highly paid QB but has still managed to surround him with talent and a well built team. Brandon Beane is lapping Brett Veach at team building.
Agreed that this is a rebuild, but we’re look at a 2-3 year rebuild if most of the draft picks are hits.
Kelce will be 34 next year.
If we dont have a left tackle next year...well it wont look much different from this year except on the rare occasion we run under center and directly up the middle and to the left. [Reply]

If Butker doesn’t roll his ankle of the fluke of all flukes, this is a win and the general narrative is “well…we played like shit and still won a conference road game”.
Sure the issues would be apparent, but a win makes it all feel quite a bit better. [Reply]

Between you, Clay, and Dante in this thread, there's just too much sound logic for me. I prefer to just be angry because we're not allowed to lose and/or the fuck the refs and/or fuck Veach and/or fuck Bieniemy. [Reply]

Even if they win the same root problems with the roster still exist. An ugly win over a team that was shutout by Jacksonville and tied Houston doesn’t change anything. [Reply]
I've already seen two ESPN notification this morning along the lines of "Are the Chiefs in trouble?!" and then "Did the Colts provide the blueprint to beat the Chiefs?"
It's hilarious the media and people go down these rabbit holes every single year and others have to say the same old Captain Obvious things about how none of it matters at this point.
Just hang out and wait for the Chiefs/Bills playoff game in January. [Reply]

That's because ESPN is more concerned with race and only covering football/basketball. They never discuss soccer, hockey, baseball, or any other global sport. If you spend 24/7 covering two sports, you'll eventually run out of topics to discuss. Thus, you make up topics in those sports. [Reply]

The 24/7 sports media cycle killed rationalism in the media. [Reply]

Along these lines, was watching clips of Mahomes top 27 passes or some such. As Mahomes was chased out of the pocket, the announcer would say, "Mahomes is in trouble!!!" and he would throw some remarkable pass for huge gain or TD. Later in the clip the announcers would say, "Is Mahomes in trouble?" before he threw the TD. They started to realize the Mahomes on the run was not a bad situation after all. [Reply]
