I think it’s bad for a couple of the reasons I listed above

I think just about every good HC in the nfl is an alpha. Within the category of “aloha” there are different levels. I don’t see how a beta would make a good HC.

I just said it was a bad list. Are you always this sensitive?

I’ll make sure to make my own lamp post. I wouldn’t want to waste it in this thread 😘 Agreed, but there should be more options @ WR than addison, rice and Hyatt. Flowers, jsn should be included. Mauch the only OR? No wright? O’Torrance as the only og? just a weird list.

Sure, it could be the case, I don’t believe Frazier is taking a year off because he needs a break. I also don’t believe he’ll be back after next season. I think it’s in mcdermotts best interest to run and call the defense if he wants to remain the HC of Josh Allen. He now has HC experience under his belt and might be able to handle both and achieve better results on D than Frazier. I think mcdermott is hungry and always looking to improve. He’s an alpha and alphas often want as much power as they can handle. He’s about to find out if he can handle it. If he can’t, that leaves the door open for Leslie to return. I just don’t think it’ll happen. sure, it could be far fetched- but it also makes a lot of sense for a hungry individual

Just a bad list

I think you went a bit far on this one. Frazier was much more than a warm body. A warm body doesn’t call plays. Whomever takes the role of DC this year, now that’s a different story. That person will most likely just be a warm body as I hope/expect McD to call plays on defense this year. In 2023, I think we’ll see a 💯 McD defense. That is the purpose of Frazier stepping away. McD is going all in on himself and his defense. For this, I’m excited to see. I think we’ll see a more aggressive defense this year. It’s now his turn to morph into the defensive version of Andy Reid. It’s what we need if McD is going to become a championship coach imo.

I do too…. Knowing this is more reason to draft 1 OL in the first 3 rds and another 1 or 2 later in the draft. Also adding 1-2 experienced FAs. I wouldn’t count on 2 OLs drafted in the first 3 rounds to play and help for a year or two.

You don’t say!! I would too. 😉 too bad we’ll have to trade up for him

I’ll take him for 1-2M aav

Beane really needs to pull 2 more rabbits out of the hat like he did with daryl Williams (albeit success for only for 1 season) I’ll be sad if AT Perry is the only WR we draft and if he’s our pick in rd 3. I really about this guy getting any type of separation in the nfl Yeah I could see this. He’s a helluva player and could be BPA. I’d love the player while hating the pick

Too late- he’s the SF dC

Great timing-

The moment Joe Cribbs picked me up a 7 year old me, put me on his shoulders and walked around signing autographs for 30 minutes while at Fredonia training camp That’s the play that had me hooked for life.

And you can continue to put words in my mouth. Per usual. Bye again

Would you be happy if we go with Diggs-Davis- shakir and drafted another slot WR in rd 3 to push Shakir?

It can as long as we don’t draft cody ford in rd 2, Spencer brown rd 3 and Tommy Doyle rd 3. Beane has done nothing in the draft to suggest he can fix the line in rd 2-4.

I’d really like to have him back too. He’s my favorite player on the defense since we signed him. loved watching him play at oregon state. Just not sure he’ll come back at a discount. He’s made a good amount of money for an everyday Joe, but not for an NFL all pro. I just think he’ll chase the biggest bag or join a rival that offers more than us. I hope I’m wrong

Agreed. He’s super butt hurt and Would love to stick it to us if we won’t pay him. And that would be terrible. That Miami D is gonna be legit next year Imo

Or with the last pick in the first round. Wright to KC is my prediction. Makes too much sense.

My MVS comment has nothing to do with being and “elite” talent. You said that the talent divide isn’t as much as people say. I mentioned their WRs to compare them to ours. Their playmakers are clearly better and their OL is one of the best in the league and includes elite talent. Our OL was one of the worst. There are statistics to be found to prove almost any point someone is trying to make, regardless of how off base it is. The stats that you posted try to minimize the effectiveness of the Philly pass rush is proof of that. Reddick, Graham and Hargrave were all top 15 in pass rush grades. Josh sweat was 8th in the league among edge rushers with 13 sacks, his pff grade was an elite 86. You can find stats to show that their pass rush was overrated…..just as easily as I found stats to the contrary. the comment about us winning the SB if we had Reid in co, could be…..but our OL wasn’t much better than the OL Reid had vs TB when Mahomes was eaten alive.

Right. Elite talen— we have Diggs. That’s all. the entire KC OL minus their RT is going to or already is getting paid mega millions. They have some elite talent on offense line ….because they paid for it (thuney + Orlando) and drafted it (creed). Smith is very good (but not elite atm, but he’ll get paid like it). We have 1 WR. That’s it. Kelce and Diggs are a wash- juju+ MVS + toney >> Knox, Davis and anyone else we found on the street. They have better weapons- they have a MUCH better OL regardless of any stats you want to find Put their OL in front of Josh, with KC weapons and Andy Reid calling plays— instead of a rookie play caller. Spags instead of one of the most passive DCs I can remember….. You likely win super bowls. where did I say our OL is the worst in league history? You’re not supposed to say anything to that….:because I didn’t say that. Maybe this is one of the problems with your posts and why I had you on ignore most of the season. Idk….talent around him = supporting cast imo. No big deal, I hear ya

He didn’t mention weaponry in the post you quoted. Maybe he did elsewhere and if so, apologies. He said talent level. i agree that Dorsey (and Allen’s injury) contributed to the offensive decline in the 2nd half of the season……but I think that we would’ve steamrolled some teams if we had KCs OL. The talent differential along the OL was massive. KC and Philly had 2 of the 3 best OLs in the league (Detroit being the other in the mix) if not the top 2.

Did you watch the KC OLine play against the Philly D that had 70 sacks this year? LT, LG, C and RG are all better than every player not named Diggs. We have one of the worst OLs in the league they have one of the best. Then add Kelce - then add Andy Reid. Mahomes was working with a LOT more than allen. That is a fact. “Elite playmakers”? Not so much. “Elite supporting cast”? absofrickinlutely. There’s a wide talent divide when you take away- von, Hyde, daquan Jones, Hamlin, crowder and a close to useless Poyer. Injuries are part of the game, but some teams can’t overcome them. How many all pros were the chiefs missing? McD- Dorsey- Frazier Vs Reid- Bienemy- Spags? Our coaches were totally outclassed by Taylor and Anarumo

Paris Johnson or Skoronski. I still haven’t watched much of the OL, not sure which one is better but Johnson looks to have the higher upside. I’d go with him.
