The Bills pushed 36,000,000 into the future to field this juggernaut.
Can you imagine what the Chiefs would look like if we just pushed 12 or 15? We would not lose a game. |

Teams that operate with limited windows have that luxury. We have a 10+ year window constantly open. Not very responsible to operate like that

still think the chiefs should have been more aggressive because kelce isn't going to be around forever
if this isn't his last year, next year is |

I also disagree that our window is ten years. There will be ups and downs. Tom Brady went a decade going nowhere with BB. Andy Reid probably won’t be here 10 years. Chris Jones and Kelce won’t be either. We will have a few dud drafts and our young guys we stacked will leave. We need to win now. |

They also have only 5 draft picks and Tranquil, Gay, Sneed, Danna, Edwards and Chris alone are FA's. That's half of your starters on defense and a very good role player. They need draft picks to keep this thing going. The Chiefs are the 1 seed currently. They're gonna be 13-4 at worst. No need to go for broke. That's what messes up teams like ours |

2005, 10-6 after winning 3 SBs in 4 years (boo ****ing hoo) 2006, lost by 4 in the AFCCG 2007, lost in the SB after starting 18-0 2008, 11-5 and didn't make the playoffs 2009, WC round loss 2010, 14-2, divisional loss Then they lost in the SB again and lost in the next two AFCCGs. At most, that's a 2 year stretch where I guess you could say they were on the struggle bus a bit. Their window was pretty much Brady's entire time there though, just like the Chiefs' window will be open until Mahomes retires. Anything beyond that is just nitpicking... like you said, there will be ups and downs, and there's of course a chance they could **** it up. Hell, another Mahomes could come along. There's always shit to worry about, but still have to plan with an eye on achieving greatness, which for Mahomes is chasing Brady. |

When did the Bill promise to pay other members of AFC teams way to the Super Bowl? That's mighty nice of them since they'll be on vacation at the time.

Point is they were not real serious contenders every year. 2007 yes absolutely they were but many years they were not a real SB contender. Same will happen here. Part of the reason we are a bit spoiled too is Mahomes started off so fast on his rookie contract. Every year of prime Mahomes on a rookie contract was a SB contending year. Now that we are paying him there will be actual lulls here and there. The best GMs miss drafts, Veach will have a a few more Speaks led drafts. Right now is a prime opportunity we should want to cash in. |

They had the 08-09 years where they weren't, when Tom was coming off an ACL tear.
Other than that, they were one of the best teams in the league. |

We will have years where we are "one of the best teams" but not a real SB contender. My Packers friend can tell you all about what that looks like.
