Do we still get picks if his contract is up? It’s not like KC will have to release him from his contract if he gets a head coaching job. He’s a free agent. ???

Geez, Staley is a dumbshit. I hope he is there forever.

Green Bay was eliminated. You suck.

Bringing in Brandon Williams has made a noticeable difference.

He has been a drop machine lately.

Now let’s put the game away!

3 pass plays and a punt out of the back of the endzone?

Second half playcalling, right on time. Don’t run the ball with a 3 score lead.

31-24 Faiders We lose, just because. Hope I’m wrong.

Hopefully Veach has learned his lesson of first round RBs.

Don't know if this has been posted, but it is BS if this is the way they go: NFL reporter says league may not count a Chiefs game when determining playoff seeding Story by Pete Grathoff, The Kansas City Star • There was a bit of good news Wednesday morning regarding Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin. ESPN’s Coley Harvey spoke with Hamlin’s family and their friend Jordon Rooney about Hamlin, who suffered a cardiac arrest during Monday night’s game in Cincinnati. “Per Jordon and Damar’s family, doctors overnight got promising readings that they had been hoping to see by this morning,” Harvey tweeted. “Jordon couldn’t go into specifics, but progress appears to be made.” That’s the kind of news everyone around the NFL wants to hear, and hopefully Hamlin will make a full recovery. As Hamlin recovers, the NFL is moving forward, having announced Tuesday that all Week 18 games will be played as scheduled, but the Bengals-Bills game wouldn’t be resumed this week. Should that game ultimately not be played, it would have an impact on playoff seeding, and The Star’s Jesse Newell took a look at what that might mean for the Chiefs. Benjamin Allbright, an NFL reporter for KOA Radio in Colorado, said Tuesday the league is considering options for playoff seeding with the Chiefs, Bills and Bengals all in the running for the No. 1 seed. “The game from last night right now is considered suspended. And it may end up being a no-contest,” Allbright said on KOA. “That’s the idea that’s being pitched around right now as a no-contest between the two. And if a seeding issue comes into play after the Week 18 stuff is done, then they will use either a random number generator to not count a game and make it even on all sides. “At least that’s the current phrase that’s being thrown around, the current idea that’s being thrown around. Nothing has been determined officially yet but that’s the leader in the clubhouse right now, per a league office source.” The other option is to not count the Chiefs-Broncos game from Sunday when determining the seeding. “The two leaders in the house are you just don’t count that week’s Chiefs game, which would be the Denver Broncos game (Sunday), or they do a random number generator,” Allbright said. “It’s a 1 through 18 and they just don’t count one of those games, whatever game that number generates they don’t count that week’s game to make it random. Those are some of the things that are being floated right now as they try to figure out, try to settle all this.” The hosts of KOA joked the Broncos could benefit by not having the result count in Denver’s 15-game losing streak to the Chiefs. But that wouldn’t be the case. The result would stand, along with all the statistics. But when the NFL decided playoff seeding, it would not count one Chiefs game. A random number generator also could throw out, say, the Chiefs’ loss to the Colts. But using that method to determine NFL playoff seeding would be unprecedented. Other options NBC Sports’ Mike Florio looked at possible options for the NFL going forward and one included pushing the start of the AFC playoffs back one week. “Week 18 would proceed as scheduled. The following weekend, the NFC wild-card games would be played, along with Bills-Bengals,” Florio wrote. “The next weekend, the AFC wild-card games would be played. “Then, the rest of the playoffs would unfold, but without the bye week between conference championships and the Super Bowl. “This would ensure that all teams play 17 games. It would give all AFC playoff teams (except the Bills and Bengals) a week off. It would give the NFC wild-card winners a week off. And the NFC No. 1 seed would go three weeks between games.” Ben Rolfe of Pro Football Network suggested another option: a standalone game between the Bills and Bengals. “The only feasible way for the NFL to have this game played would be to have a Week 19 where just the Bills and Bengals play, pushing the Wild Card Weekend back a week, and with it, pushing back the NFL playoffs up to Conference Championship week,” he wrote. “That would mean the Bills could still play for the one seed, while if the Bengals lose to the Ravens this week, they would still be trying to clinch the AFC North. If the Chiefs lose in Week 18, the Bengals-Bills game could be for a first-round bye.” The NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport discussed that option Wednesday morning. One other idea being shared by many people is skipping the Bills-Bengals game and having the AFC Championship Game at a neutral site to avoid any controversy. The last week of the NFL season always has a number of crazy playoff scenarios, but this is a whole new level. ©2023 The Kansas City Star. Visit kansascity.com.

Yeah. I think he could be a difference maker for the playoffs. Him and Toney on the field at the same time? Could be good.

Maybe Veach repeats the scenario of drafting Fisher, letting him play his rookie year at RT, while keeping Albert at LT, giving Fish time to adjust to the NFL. They could tag OBJ again and draft the LT of the future and play them on the right for a year. They won't get a top flight LT where they pick anyway.

Seeding doesn’t matter now. My inner conspiracy theorist now predicts that there is a snowball’s chance in hell that anyone other than Buffalo wins LVII.

This is what twitterverse doctors are blaming. Take it for what it is worth, but it sounds accurate: What Is Commotio Cordis? Medically reviewed by Angela M. Bell, MD, FACP— By James Roland — Updated on August 27, 2021 Symptoms Causes Risk factors Treatment Complications Prevention Outlook Commotio cordis occurs when a person is hit in the chest and that impact triggers a dramatic change in the rhythm of their heart. The blow could come from an object, such as a baseball or hockey puck, and may not seem especially serious in the moment. However, commotio cordis is often fatal. Commotio cordis is an uncommon injury, and it most commonly affects male teen athletes. Without immediate treatment, this condition can cause unexpected cardiac death. Immediate first aid treatment with CPR and defibrillation with an automated external defibrillator (AED) may be able to restore the heart’s healthy rhythm and save a life. https://www.healthline.com/health/commotio-cordis

I remember the Hank Gathers footage. That was rough to watch.

Good lord, dude. WGAF. That kid could die. Fuck the game.

Wow. I am at work and just checked the score and saw this. Prayers up for that kid.

That’s it?

I am a Cinci fan tomorrow, though. Getting the bye might be our best shot at running the table.

Playcalling is a damned mystery. Logic. Run the ball. Run clock. Nope.
