Imagine allowing Chris Jones to "juice" and pitting him against 70's NFL players with their prehistoric levels of strength and conditioning. People literally would die.

Things are absolutely looking good.
Things to worry about. LT is a question mark. Injuries are always a concern and Kelce, while still bringing it, certainly looked old at times. In the NFL, it seems you can always be blindsided by something. Could use some depth at DT and RB. |

I'm not trying to be a party pooper, I like to think of myself more on the optimistic spectrum here, but more even keel about things and more realistic about the chaos that is an NFL season. |

Sigh. I’m jacked up for this roster. I might put money down on an undefeated season, after seeing what we did and seeing what our rivals didn’t do.
What are the current Vegas odds? |

Minimum, 5,000 yards and 45 TD. I'll be shocked if he doesn't hit 50 TD. If it happens, it's because the Chiefs are killing clock and grinding down defeated defenses. He already did this in 2022, but even that season, it was HARD for him, every week. If no one gets hurt, this is going to be easy. Laughably easy. Teams are going to be giving us yards every snap. |

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 just looked it up and Buck Buchanan was 6’7” 269. He was basically Kelce’s size playing DT lol The 69 center was 236 and he was 6’4”. That dude was barely bigger than Kam Chancellor and he’d have to go up against Chris Jones for 60 minutes. That would be a legitimate rape. Plus Lenny himself was only 6’ 190. Idk how tough the dude was but it’d be put to the test that day. |

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. |

Best interior line in the league. Best left guard best center & best right guard.
