49ers must genuinely think they have a shot at winning it all this year with this move. If they can get healthy, they may be right. They have an elite D and CMC gives them a real threat out of the backfield. I'm not saying they are better than our Bills, but I think their front office thinks this is a piece of the puzzle they need. Frankly, I'm glad the Bills didn't try to pull the trigger on a deal like this with that many picks, but I'm going to predict we get a bunch of "I told you so" speeches if the Bills don't win the SB and how we would've if we signed CMC. 😄

We have elite talent and if it means giving up high draft picks to get more, we don't want it.

We barely give the Rookie we drafted any playing time. We don't need to be dropping first round picks on 1/2 season rental RBs. And clearly the bigger need and as the season has progressed, that became even more evident with the injuries in the secondary.

Ok, you keep splitting hairs. They played like crap and lost to some teams they should've beaten, but let's keep acting like a loss isn't still a loss like you apparently want to do and also act like those losses didn't cost them homefield advantage, which they most certainly did.

To say they were "ready" given the errors they were making is a tough sell, chief.

I question his ability to contribute this season coming off that injury, never mind next. That's why I'm hesitant for us to bring him in. I also worry about the media circus that would ensue if we did and it becoming a distraction at the worst possible time to have one late in the year.

They need to stop the cutesy plays down near the goal line. Either run it right at them repeatedly, run PA, or bootleg JA.

Given a couple of their losses last year against teams they should've beaten, I wouldn't call that entirely accurate. Those losses cost them homefield.

Not sure, but it should be common sense that Von isn't doing this himself. Without the push up the middle, Von could easily be double teamed and essentially be taken out of the equation.

Did you not listen to Von after the game? He literally gave credit to those guys and said they all make each other better and allow him to do what he does.

42 yards and a TD of Mahomes stats was Schuster's short catch and busted play. That was on us. Nothing special the Chiefs did.

Can't jam someone if you don't even try.

Only a couple times did they jam him. Just like the 13 seconds drive and the 62 yd field goal drive, usually free release off the line. No jam. Makes no sense. Jamming messes up timing and doesn't allow him to get downfield and find holes in the zone as quickly.

Jamming him at the line would be a good start instead of allowing him to freely release to quickly get downfield and find the holes in our zone.

Possibly, but it's easier said than done. If a team can't get pressure with the front four or three and a spy, it's not going to work very well.

Sucks to suck.

Unless the capacity of Raymond-James Stadium is being reported incorrectly (65,890), Tampa shouldn't be able to host a Super Bowl. Obviously, they have. They are adding temp seating to bring the capacity closer to near 70K now, but the season before last, they hosted the SB. https://www.buccaneers.com/news/krewes-nest-end-zone-seating-fifth-third-bank-gate-fast-lane-upgraded-food

And the new stadium is open-air. If it was a dome or retractable roof, it would be a completely different design, so we don't know how many it would theoretically seat.

Hopefully the latter, lol.

That's the open-air stadium that's getting built. A retractable roof or dome would be a completely different design.

You have no way of knowing that.

Teams like that typically tend to fall into the dangerous category in my experience. They will beat teams throughout the year they weren't supposed to.

I'm not saying I don't think we won't beat them. All I'm saying is I don't think neither the team nor the fans should underestimate them.

Not sure it's as easy as we initially thought. Both the Pats and Jets have exceeded expectations by a lot up to this point.

Oh, well. Nothing we can do to stop it if that's the case except play football better than they do. The Chiefs lack a receiver that can stretch the field. CMC doesn't fix that for them.
