Beane looks like a genius now.
maybe if he had drafted mcconkey instead of coleman.

the full updated statement from worthy attorney (different from the first statement w/ more details):
-
As Rashee Rice will soon find out, Worthy committed this crime in the worst state of the 50 states. In New York, this would be a slap on the wrist Class A midsemeanor. In Texas, it's a third-degree felony. Also, the family member can't simply drop charges, and especially not if it's a woman. It will be up to the state. He has a very long offseason ahead and I'd say a certain suspension.
The Chiefs will be without Worthy and Rice week 1, in all likelihood. Hollywood is unsigned. Smith-Schuster is unsigned. Justin Watson is unsigned. Mecole Hardman is unsigned.
That means the Chiefs Week 1 offense, as it stands currently, could consist of:
QB - Mahomes
Left tackle - Empty Hole
Left guard - Empty hole (All Pro Thuney out, likely 2nd year draft bust steps in)
Center - Creed Humphrey (elite)
Right guard - Trey Smith (very good)
Right Tackle - Jawaan Taylor (terrible)
RB - Isaiah Pacheco (has fallen off a cliff, always injured)
WR - Skyy Moore (draft bust, sat out most of 2024)
WR - Niko Remigio (special teams player)
WR - Justyn Ross (practice squad)
WR - Tyquan Thornton (who?)
TE - Travis Kelce (washed)

Out of all the Chiefs players, he would have been the last person I thought capable of doing this. Seemed like the nicest guy. Which in fairness, in a locker room consisting of Kareem Hunt and Rashee Rice, and Charles Omenihu, he still might be, at least comparatively speaking.

I would bet a lot of money that Josh Allen and Buffalo's offense will outperform Mahomes and the Chiefs' offense the next two years and potentially the next three years.
Reason: Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown at tackle for Buffalo; while the Chiefs counter with an empty space and Jawaan Taylor, who is dog poop. Having two elite tackles is a cheat code. The Chiefs are learning that the hard way. In 2022, when the Chiefs signed Orlando Brown (and got a good season out of him), and had very solid Andrew Wylie at right tackle, Mahomes put up an MVP season and 5000 yards without Tyreek and crap receivers.
The last two years, with endless rotation of scrubs at left tackle and Turnstile Taylor at right tackle, the Chiefs offense has been good but nothing anywhere close to their level from 2018-2022. Unless something crazy happens, the KC offensive line gets worse, not better, in 2025.
-
Anybody have the data that's informing these decisions? Why the 30? Why the 35? Why not, say, the 32 yard line? Because that would look weird? This all seems so completely random to me. To think you could score a go-ahead TD, kick off wrong (touchback = 35 yard line, non landing zone = 40 yard line) and have the opposing team such as the Chiefs (with Butker's leg) be 15-20 yards away from realistic field goal range is crazy to me.

I do think people (me included) are a little unfair to Beane. He has hit on a lot of great draft picks, including early round ones. We just tend to dwell on the not-so-good picks.
Allen, Tre, Edmunds, Dion, Oliver, Rousseau, AJE. All first and second round picks who I think panned out very well.
The Bills have predominantly picked at the end of rounds also which is always dismissed/overlooked. The Chiefs always get unanimous praise for their drafting (particularly the 2022 draft), but they've had some whiffs too. Clyde Edwards was a late 1st rounder. FAU the DE was a late 1st rounder. Skyy Moore 2nd round. Their left tackle from BYU (2nd round) looks like a bust.
When you're picking #30-#32 every year, your first rounders are really early 2nd rounders and your second rounders are basically early 3rd rounders. Degree of difficulty much higher picking in the 1st round a guy that everyone else in the entire league passed on.

Umm, yeah this isn’t true. Double check wherever you’re getting your information from.
Yup, and Marty was with the Chiefs for 10 years.

Monos was director of personnel for the Bills 2013-2017. Pretty good listen for those interested (this podcast is non paywall): https://www.golongtd.com/p/pod-state-of-the-buffalo-bills-with
-Monos criticizes Beane/McDermott for the 1st and 2nd round selections they've made. Says they've done much better in the mid-rounds but says the 1st and 2nd rounds are the GM and the coach picking, and they simply haven't been good enough there. He thinks Beane needs to defer to someone else if need be to make those picks if he must and says self reflection needed.
-Monos: "Brandon Beane was never a scout, he was a salary cap operations type. He knows how to organize. I'm not saying they shouldn't have their jobs...the goal is for sustained success...and that's what the Bills have...I think the Bills need to understand, who is the trusted talent evaluator in that building? Who is making these calls in the first and second round? Where are the big physical freaks?"
-Monos on Buffalo's potential interest in a Myles Garrett trade: "You should want Myles Garrett. Go get him. It might help you win the Super Bowl. But that's lazy GM'ing. That's a lazy GM in my opinion. That's an easy one. The hard GM's are finding those first round." There was a discussion about NFL teams likely trying to replicate Philly's defensive approach after the Super Bowl by loading up on DL. But he says it's not like teams don't already try to do that. Buffalo has tried. They've drafted D-Line, and they took a big swing via free agency for Von Miller hoping it'd put them over the top and it backfired.
-Monos criticizes Beane/McDermott for bringing up the refs/officials before the Chiefs game and again afterward. He says it's loser talk. Dunne questions why they would even plant the seed of doubt in players' minds ahead of the game. Why let your players play the victim role? (Monos agreed.)
-Monos criticizes the Bills' poor safeties, calling Bishop "a linebacker."
-Monos doesn't seem high on the Coleman pick and returned to his talking point about Buffalo not getting enough true difference makers at the top of the draft. "Guys that run 4.2's, they don't exist later in the draft. Coleman types exist later in the draft. You can get big jumpball wideouts that can't run. That's what the fourth round is for."
-Dunne noted that McDermott is entering his 9th year and only three coaches ever - Tom Landry, Hank Stram, Bill Cowher - have ever won Super Bowls that deep into their tenure with an organization. "Even Andy Reid had to leave Philly and draft Mahomes before he got his first ring."
-Monos wonders if McDermott wrestles control of defensive play calling in playoff games. "I'd like to ask somebody on that staff if Sean does call any defenses in playoff games? I have a feeling there might be some...which is fine, that's your right to do whatever you want."
-Dunne: "I think the GM understands everything should revolve around Josh Allen. I don't know if I can say the same about McDermott....he says complimentary things about him. When it comes to managing the game, what kind of game it's going to be, how the roster should be constructed, I'm not sure he sees it the same way as the GM. Gut feeling."
-Monos says he wouldn't pay Cook what he wants.

IMO the issue is the Chiefs aren't used to adversity.
Same thing happened in the Tampa Super Bowl. As lopsided as that game became, early on Mahomes was under tremendous pressure, but when he did make throws then guys dropped the ball or didn't make a play when there were opportunities.
Suddenly instead of 1st and 10 they're punting and it snowballs.
When your offense is only getting 3 plays a drive you aren't going to get anything done and the DL is going to eat. WR and TW need to make the catch when the QB gets it out but that didn't happen in either SB loss for them.
In the Tampa SB you had the play where Mahomes was horizontal in mid air, throwing a perfect pass into the endzone for what should have been a TD and the WR dropped it.
That's what happens when you really pressure KC. They crumble under it (IMO) because they are not accustomed to needing to battle to move the ball.
The other issue is that THAT was their chance and they didn't convert. They get tight. Once the Philly game was over they all of a sudden start throwing it deep, whereas Mahomes passed up the deep throws when they were possible when it still a game.
They've rallied from 10-point deficits to win three previous Super Bowls and overcame a 24-0 deficit to win a playoff game. They've rallied from 14-0 down at half in an AFC title game to force OT at 31-31. They've won despite trailing with 13 seconds left. This exact core, and this exact coaching staff. It's okay to simply get your ass beat from time to time. The better team won.

By what metric? These metrics propped up by these corporations to get headlines and clout is just like Beyonce winning a Grammy.
It costs $8 million to air a 30 second Super Bowl commercial. I don't think these advertisers are getting duped with false numbers.

The number would have been a good bit higher if the game wasn't terrible, so it's an impressive number. That being said, it gets easier to set new ratings records every year w the various simulcast/streaming options. Without knowing next year's matchup, I'd predict it will be record setting. Same with the year after that and probably the year after that.

Teams CANNOT be in a close game with the Chiefs because they will NEVER get the benefit of the doubt from the officials.
The single highest-impact penalty on win probability over the past 10 postseasons—a defensive holding on cornerback Trent McDuffie that extended a 49ers field-goal drive in overtime of Super Bowl LVIII—went against Kansas City. The penalty made the Chiefs 20% less likely to win.

Andy Reid said last week that Mike Holmgren taught him early in his career to "always keep a few bullets in the holster." He was referring to the idea of saving/preserving your best plays for when it matters most. It has long been theorized that the Chiefs save their best plays for when it counts and go out of their way to not use them during the regular season.
It's unknowable, but let's assume for argument's sake that every team has 50 amazing plays that they bring into the regular season: short-yardage plays, goal line plays, 2-pt plays, 4th-and-desperate plays, whatever it might be. Let's just say there's 50 of them. Lots of teams have to use these plays week by week for pure survival. Maybe you're down 5 points Week 1, facing 4th-and-goal with 5 seconds left...that seems like a good time to use one of your great plays. Later in the year, as you pursue the playoffs or a better seed and face critical situations in critical games, you might have to tap further into your 'great play' reserves.
I'd love to know how many 'great plays' the Bills used in their regular season matchup vs the Chiefs, for example; and how many the Chiefs used in the same game (they were trailing, and were unbeaten, and the game was important in the grand scheme of things.) And I'd love to know how many 'great plays' each team had left in their holster by the time the AFC championship game came around.

Elam… what a terrible bust v.s. Mcduffie!
Worthy… surely a SB bound star v.s.a very questionable Coleman.
EVERYBODY whiffed on Mahomes. The thing about him, which Reid knew, but NOBODY else did is that he was a HS Pitcher… with a NO HITTER! So, only someone who did zero due diligence investigation- hello OBD, would not have known he had pinpoint accuracy.
AND of course, he was the son of a very good MLB Pitcher! A terrible miss.
Beane whiffs on way too many and this year- he can’t!
terry pegula didnt whiff on mahomes.

the best article written on chiefs/refs so far. a little something for everyone here.

Regular season losses are not heartbreaking. It would have to be 2018 AFCCG against Brady and the Pats. The one where Mahomes didn’t get the ball in OT. It was Mahomes first year as a starter.The one where the Chiefs got screwed over by the refs repeatedly. But instead of pout about it or claim some grand conspiracy, they came back the next year and won the Super Bowl.

Just now, GoBills808 said:
yes and two of them are against us
you have proven his point
The Bills defense performs just fine against non Chiefs offenses. They had a poor game in the snow vs the Bengals (but the Bills offense performed even worse, scoring just 10 points.)
Bills points allowed in playoffs vs non chiefs teams:
jaguars 10
texans 19
colts 24
ravens 3
patriots 17 (7 in garbage time, really 10)
dolphins 31 (mia def TD, really 24)
bengals 27
steelers 17
broncos 7
ravens 25
18 pts per game allowed vs non chiefs teams
Bills points allowed in playoffs vs chiefs:
chiefs 27
chiefs 36 (excludes OT)
chiefs 38
chiefs 32
33.3 pts per game allowed vs chiefs

If this happens against the Eagles dominating front, there is a serious issue. There is no way they can protect Mahomes all game long and not hold.
The Commanders ran 74 plays (48 passes) without an offensive holding penalty vs the Eagles in the NFC Championship game.
It can be done.

People are either sick of the Chiefs or hate the Chiefs due to officiating. Not the same as the hate for Brady/Pats/Evil Empire, which was more based on the Jordan-esque ability of Brady.
Eagles, despite having known players, don't really move the needle because Jalen Hurts isn't a QB draw.
Obviously it will still do well ratings wise, but you can tell the NFL fanbase as a whole feels a type of way about the league right now.
Chiefs-Texans delivered ESPN's highest ever rating.
Chiefs-Bills delivered CBS's best ever rating for an AFC title game.
Chiefs-49ers Super Bowl rematch was the highest rated telecast in TV history.
Conspiratorial morons on Twitter who think the league is scripted and that it's all rigged (as if a rigged league wouldn't have preferred the Lions this year or last year) do not represent the whole of America. This will be a highly rated Super Bowl and I'd bet almost anything Buffalo will not only tune in, but also be a top-10 market in terms of viewership.

Last year’s Chiefs-49ers Super Bowl, the local KC market had the highest TV rating.
Second highest: San Francisco. Just kidding, they didn’t crack the top 10.
Second highest: Buffalo.
