West

I am a fan of Lamar as long as he is not playing KC.... He is a great player....but given a choice...I take Patrick every time. w

Suggs a choice....He could walk away...or get a ring. w

Its just silliness....These guys are pro's...It is their Career.... anyway....cracks me up. w

Reese!! You bumped this.... LMAO... w

I wish I had a nickle for every player that shows up saying, "this is going to be different....I am going to give all I got for the Chiefs....." w

Agree Xen.... Mahomes (like other great players in other sports) knows true GREATNESS is measured in Championships. He also has really good advisors to include his dad, Derek Jeter and his agent. While the agent is all about the green, I think his father and Jeter will be solid advisors. Pat Mahomes likes to win and he likes to win Super Bowls.... Also, like Suggs...players will come to KC for the opportunity to WIN and for the high quality organization and great Coaches.... Reid and Veech have built the right formula to date, keeping Pat Mahomes as a Chief is not an ingredient in the recipe....Its the Oven that enables a real product to be brought to consumers every game day.... w

Like in the past, Reid and Veach get the benefit of the doubt..... w

Just glad to see people are now giving Veach some credit.....That thread from October sure left a mark on quite a few here... w

I just read this thread and it is funny to say the least.... I remember seeing it back in October, and I just stayed away..... Quite a bit of negative nellie stuff in there...... w

Damn, what a great kid... w

Didn't these O-Line Chumps just win us a Super Bowl? Guys, Reid is an ex O-lineman. He sees the middle of the line as area that he can swap at the drop of a hat and has done so forever. Just sayin....

GREAT! Thanks OT.

I still have my red #16 seat signed by DJ.....I really wanted his autographed game worn spikes but EVAD got them... w

Chiefs preparing for a 'track meet' against AFC West rivals Adam Teicher ESPN Staff Writer AFC West rivals geared up for an offensive arms race during the 2020 NFL draft, and the Kansas City Chiefs took notice. The Los Angeles Chargers drafted quarterback Justin Herbert. The Las Vegas Raiders selected wide receiver Henry Ruggs, who at 4.27 ran the fastest 40 time of any player at this year's scouting combine. The Denver Broncos added wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, who ran a 4.45 40, and picked up wideout KJ Hamler, who might have beaten Ruggs' time had he run at the combine. The Chiefs' reaction was essentially, "Bring it on." "I think teams certainly, they have to score some points against us," general manager Brett Veach said. "I think even if you have a really good defense, it's hard to stop our offense. So I think teams are certainly ready for a track meet when they play the Chiefs. "It's going to be an exciting time for our division, certainly some great players were drafted by the Chargers, the Raiders and the Broncos. Our division is always tough and competitive, and I think talent added to those teams will make this even more exciting for our fans.” The Chiefs' death grip on the AFC West has finally drawn some serious responses from their rivals. Since 2016, the Chiefs have won each of the four division titles. Since 2015, they are 27-3 in the division with two losses coming by one point and the other on a last-minute touchdown. The Chiefs were 6-0 in AFC West games last season and outscored opponents 176-66, or an average of 29-11. "Let's be honest, the entire league is chasing the Kansas City Chiefs,” Raiders general manager Mike Mayock said. "But we're in the same division. They keep getting faster and more athletic, more dynamic every time you turn around. Other teams have to do the same.” In the AFC West, rivals have determined it's better to counter the Chiefs' brand of bullying by trying to score with them rather than hold down the Kansas City offense, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs were fifth in the league in scoring last season while the Chargers, Raiders and Broncos were 21st or below. "I think it's going to be exciting," Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu said. "I'm a football player. I love to play football. I love the competition. I love that part of it. I think any time opposing teams can have exciting players on the other side, I think it's going to lift us naturally. "I think we understand what teams are trying to do, what style of play they're going for. I think if we're able to see that writing on the wall, if we're able to accept it and then not as much understand them, more so just embrace ourselves. Just stay confident and understand that teams are doing certain things for a reason and I think we've got a little bit to do with that.” The Chiefs made draft moves of their own to counter their rivals. They selected a running back, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, in the first round. The Chiefs were 23rd in rushing last season and 25th in yards per catch from their running backs. "We've seen what the other teams in our division have been doing and we understand they're trying to come out there and compete against us and try to take the crown from us," Mahomes said. "So it's about us getting better within ourselves so we can go out there and play our best football. "For us, it's just kind of coming in with that mindset of being prepared for everything, making sure you really go into detail on the scouting reports and everything like that because you know you're going to get the best effort and the best changeup of every single team." In an indication they're preparing to face faster opponents, the Chiefs later selected two of the fastest defensive players available in the draft. One, Willie Gay, ran the fastest 40 time (4.46) for any linebacker at the combine. The other, L'Jarius Sneed, ran the second fastest time for a defensive back (4.37). "Every player we add to the team, we really analyze that player in the context of what he brings to our championship squad," Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt said. "When you have Patrick Mahomes as your quarterback it's a very comforting feeling knowing that you're bringing in players that can help this offense be better or help the defense put the team in a better situation. "It's obviously what we've worked for five decades to do is to get back to the top and to be the best team in the National Football League, to be the team that other teams and their fans aspire to be. It's a great feeling."

Jet, You never had a teacher grade your outline as the final paper... Its way too soon to say... w

I think the pick is interesting and a reach. But Veach and Reid have done pretty well coaching guys up. Wasn't too long ago people were telling us that Fisher was a bust, KPass was a bust... He will be a fun guy to follow this year. w

He needs lots of work on being in NFL Shape. Chiefs training staff will be all over him. Potential is there for sure.

Agree with you Xen.... raw talent.... w

....wow....where are you going? with that? w

The worst thing that happened to KC was Philip Rivers leaving the AFC West...They have owned his ass for years. w

Meh, I am not sure if the Raiders, Chargers or Broncos can beat 8-8... w

I really enjoyed the video in the thread where the Chiefs Brass interviewed Clyde. First, the kid is a complete gentleman. 2nd, the Chiefs knew that he was their man for quite some time. Veach did ask Pat Mahomes "who do you want, just give me a name, your gut feel?" Pat, "Clyde.." I think I trust Veach, Reid and pat. Great Pick. w

I like this "Under the Radar"

I watched the Chris Simms complimentary one more time....great stuff. w

Thanks Reese....Great read.
