LT is the only short term concern. Wanya having to start could be ugly.

I still think we should bring back Donovan Smith as insurance.

I think it's hard to predict before a regular season snap has been played with the current roster, but I imagine it's better than last years super bowl winning team minus Sneed.

People around here and in the league just don't appreciate the talent that was on the '69 Chiefs team.
6 Hall of Famers on defense. The other 5 were really good players in their own right. Greatest defense in NFL history. The offense had Len Dawson, Otis Taylor, Mike Garrett, and Frank Pitts plus a really, really good offensive line. Jan Stenerud, Jerrel Wilson, and Noland Smith on special teams. Stenerud is in the HOF. Wilson was one of the two best punters in the league and Smith was a great returner. That team was loaded at every position. 8 total Hall of Famers. It should be considered one of the five greatest teams in NFL history. |

I used to think those 2019/2020 squads were loaded but in retrospect they were extremely too heavy with a lot of mid and garbage players on the bottom of the roster.
We have weaknesses now but fewer Scandricks, Sorensons, or Rieters. |

A threepeat, in the salary cap era? Man. It's hard to believe there's even a chance. If there's a team that ever could, this is it.

Conversely, if the new rules give inferior opponents cheap BS kickoff touchdowns, that just presents more opportunities for Mahomes to reach the 5K/50TD plateau again.....

It's been a lot of fun watching teams trying to draft (and ultimately come up short) with the sole intention of taking Mahomes down, and now we're watching the league (arguably) implement new rules to give lesser teams a fighting chance against franchises with Mahomes-ian level talent (and there's only one of those). Mahomes and the Chiefs are re-writing the standards of the NFL. |

In another post about what is the greatest dynasty ever I pointed out that the 1950s Montréal Canadiens were essentially so unbeatable, and especially on their power that the national hockey league change the power-play rules so that after you scored a goal, the penalized player came back on. That was a clear example of a league changing rules to handicap a team that Nobody else matched. Is that the same situation here? If so, I’d like to understand it better. |

Montana got hurt in the NFCCG. Erik Williams had a horrendous car crash in 1994 for Dallas. Ken Norton was lost to free agency. Jimmy Johnson left (yeah that seems kinda huge lmao). Teddy Bruschi got a STROKE. Richard Seymour missed 4 games. Ty Law was lost to free agency. Both coordinators left. No one has had a better chance since 1990.
