That is the weirdest QB room on the planet I have to give Mike Tomlin credit he literally has been picking up quarterbacks like he’s sniffing magic markers
I think Omar Kahn is spreading his wings. It's not like the 2023 room was uber talented.

This is definitely true with all the other cuts. Morse is the only real surprise especially after trading Bates. There were plenty of teams that would have killed for offensive line depth last year and putting someone in with very little experience at center is very risky.
I'm thinking they didn't promise Bates the starting center job, so he had enough of being a backup. Someone start looking for second round centers, stat!

How much "cap" on this?
Those 11 draft picks will have a chance to make the roster.
Almost like there was a plan

It may be the prudent move to let Douglas walk considering his age.
I just don’t know what our CB room is going to be like without him?
Tre coming off 2 ACL injuries, Benford who is often injured, and Elam?
Yikes.
So you're saying we could draft more corners than wr's? 😄

Same but I do think the chances are very high he's played his last game as a Chief because he's made it clear he wants to be the highest paid defensive player in NFL history and he's turning 30 in the offseason so this is his one and only big shot and grabbing the bag so to speak. And quite frankly he's not just another name, he has the resume and showed up big time this year and in the playoffs when it mattered most.
Chiefs would have to franchise him to stay which means Jones could just sit out and then do nothing when he finally is forced to play out the rest of the season so he can be an UFA again in 2025. I don't think he has any interest in making history with a 3peat and all that.
I think the Bears need someone to keep blockers off of Edmunds, and they have some space. Git 'er done Buddy!

If you really want to, blame Goodell and the NFL. The cost driving the money grabbing originates from the huge contracts these guys negotiate and that in the end just comes out of our pockets. The only thing you can do is not pay for it and/or don't support the advertisers. Not many people are going to do that.

id take ridley at 10 for next year over a long term 22+ a year deal for higgins.
I'm out on Ridley. Just seemed to disappear when things were set up for him to show up. Seemed on the wrong page with Lawrence at times - just reminded me of Gabe.

There isn't a tackle in the league who can consistently stone Chris Jones without help. And Dawkins, while good, is certainly not elite while Jones is first team all Pro.
Josh can't quarterback in fear. He has to trust his guys to do the blocking or he would never get through reads.
Jones wasn't the same at DE, tackles had arm length advantages over him, that's why he has mostly played at DT since the experiment KC tried last year.

No it wouldn't have. He didn't have to wait until an all Pro pass rusher has pushed the LT into his lap to slide into the pocket. It was poor pocket management.
Throwing it to Shakir was the correct play. Throwing it to Diggs would have also been a perfectly reasonable decision. Standing still while an elite pass rusher wrecks the play was the issue.
Disagree. I think as a qb that's tough to determine where the pass rush is while going through your reads. It didn't help that it was a bull rush so Josh didn't have the advantage of seeing the jersey color in his peripheral vision. By the time he felt the pressure it was time to throw the ball.
Dawkins has had problems anchoring on the past, just unfortunate he could not hold up for another 1/2 second.

This discussion completely misses the point. The decision was 100% correct. It was Josh's execution that was poor. Had he simply slid into the massive pocket to his right, that's a TD.
As talented as he is, Josh still has room for improvement when it comes to the subtleties of QB play. There's no way Brady or Manning stands still and lets himself get bumped by his LT when there's a perfect pocket to be had.
Unfortunately that slide probably throws the timing off, so Shakir is not in the window at that time.

I'd take a shot on DJ Chark and draft a wr fourth round and after. Do folks realize we've spent two 1st's on pass catchers already?
Now if they move on from Diggs it's a different story. But with Kincaid and Shakir emerging, someone like Chark who is just an outside guy is missing from the offense. I'd rather get an interior lineman with some versatility at 28 than a wr. It's probably going to be a dl though, maybe that safety from Iowa.
-
I didn't think so before this, but I think now we need a wr that can win on the outside. I don't think we have that player now, someone like Hopkins would do it. Don't need any more than that at wr, because we will need d line and safeties next year.

Nice call by Brady

Bills held the ball 19 minutes
Chiefs 11
Both teams held the ball 4 times.
If we keep running the ball it will win us the game. We cannot stop running.
They're going to get softer as we go, got to keep hammering them. I've already seen some tired looks

My word this is stressful.
Set up a table, light it on fire and jump on it off a vehicle. Takes the edge off.

Maybe, it’s just a player who suddenly can’t catch the football when they did in college worries me. I’d have more faith if he were a great runner with bad hands in college. I’d give him the benefit that he could improve. I hope you’re right.
You also have the Josh factor, that ball is coming at you fast sometimes

You didn't hear? That's just a fine after the game now.

The problem I have with Cook is that he was supposed to be a receiving back coming out of Georgia. That was his specialty.
I think he'll get there

Cook's concentration on those drops has to improve. It is like in the endzone he thinks touchdown before he secures the ball. His hands elsewhere are not bad.
I'm assuming it will be a point of emphasis for him this off season.

The unsexy, unexciting first round pick

I wouldn't mind an OT at all. Put your best 5 out there, and if Dawkins moves to guard so be it. I would rather have Josh more comfortable in the pocket at this point in his career. I think that's our best bet to win the superbowl. We have enough guys that can catch the ball now. I could get behind IOL in the second too, let McBeane figure out what to do with the leftovers if things get complicated.
