to create a turnover? So much already gets a look. If not throwing it then, there’s only so many places you will.

Plus it was third down. So stopping a drive. If first down and they have two more shots, maybe not that valuable. A 30 yarder on 3rd and long is essentially creating a turnover. can really set a tone.

kind of? It seemed the refs had accurate time and fixed the stadium clock. terrible optics but on a practical level I don’t think much there this I’ll agree with. But was at least a close-ish call. But a miss that hurt.

but also that flag should come out 100% even if visiting team issues they are going to rush to the line. You don’t get 40 seconds to analyze a reply. You just have to trust that it’s a big win or small loss

Cooks, Shakir and Palmer are your top 3 pass catchers shavers, Gabe your top two blockers keon and Hardman back fill injuries at this point

I think that plays exactly it- right? ty had a crease. It could’ve worked. But what a frustrating one when it doesn’t. of the first half coaching issues, he wasn’t tops. Cooks catches that ball clean and you are talking about like 2(?) stalled drives total?

Honestly, if not for the first drive “catch” it would’ve been 2 quick stops to start

Nah, he can’t sit 13 months plus another offseason after. He will play just to have some faith in the healing process and annual schedule

yea I think you chalk September as unlikely to be real. Even if he plays a week or two likely still ramping up. October probably sees the field and can play from the pocket but may be missing some magic. back to normalish back half of the season wont be shocked if Reid uses this as an excuse to put some beef on the line and get a solid back to take pressure off the passing game but we will see

I guess fair. ultimately, he played well today. His contract did not work out unfortunately, and to your point that’s largely sunk cost at this point so I guess may as well just enjoy the highs when they are here.

It’s a discussion about a players trajectory and not just a players day glad he’s playing well. Unfortunately also at a strange crossroads.

they still have a tremendous team

Vonn wouldve been 6 years 150m by comparison

yea, I might not be as vocal on it but I think some of the chiefs class act narrative is media construction and not reality. that said, still hugely talented

that’s how you got him short term for cheap
