NFLPA Survey: Clark rated with an F-
I don't get this.

You can think the players are entitled or whatever, but it should be pretty easy not to get an F in any of these categories. Especially when you’ve got some seriously dysfunctional franchises out there. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profoo...-team-facility This is from last year and I believe they updated their policy, but the Cardinals used to charge players for meals eaten at team facilities. They were the only team in the league to do so. Clark got rated lower than this douche owner.. and Tepper.. That sort of thing is embarrassing and not a good look. |

According to this website, SB winners earned an additional $157,000 multiply that by 53 or whatever, plus practice squad guys probably get a smaller cut. You have to factor in the cost of Super Bowl rings as well. If that much money is going out, you have to assume what comes in is insane. |

Wasn't this the same last year. I thought then that maybe it was a little more important than people suggested. Honestly don't think it's great and I think Hunt should try and rectify it.
If the team acted coddled or entitled it'd be one thing, but every one played their a$$es off. Would be good if Hunt could pay up for some decent facilities. Two years just looks like he's a tight arse. |

I don’t think it’s just practice facilities & locker rooms. The Chiefs are consistently in the Bottom 10 of the league for cash spending on the player contracts/salaries.

The facilities thing is a real issue but the cash spent thing is way overrated. People think money equals success and then you end up with MVS or $20 million guys playing RT and people complain about that. Veach built the youngest defense in the league and they just won us a Super Bowl. I didn't see the final numbers but I believe the Chiefs were still one of the 10 youngest teams in the league overall. Veach has leaned into bringing in guys in their 20s and not giving huge contracts to WRs/CBs and it paid off with 2 straight Super Bowls and being in much much better position than most of the other AFC contenders going forward.

Some confirmation of player entitlement. How the hell did Rams players give this practice facility locker room a D+? It's fantastic and brand new

The Chiefs have had a clean cap and spent UP to the cap every year. So they haven't had to use the cash spending mechanisms to bail themselves out of nasty cap situations. In many ways high cash spending isn't a sign of a good owner - it's a sign of a bad cap manager. |

KC's spending leads to sustainable winning and championships. Dallas' spending, for example, leads to disappointed fans and a franchise living in the past. |
