Two different things.

What he's saying is 100% true and accurate. It's been verified by independent entities.

The Chiefs' cap number is somewhere between 15-20M under the cap. However, in cold, hard cash, they're like 7th in the league in spending.
I've read 3rd in the league in overall cash spending.

So what's the difference or why doesn't cold hard cash apply to the league salary cap?

Fortunately, the Spin Doctor finds himself spinning these days.

The fans don't buy it any longer.
The smart fans. Your average Joe just wants to see them win. It's going to be hard to get Pioli out. He has Clark's ear and I think Clark's expectations are low.

I think it is like bonus money but I don't know?

This.

I think we've over reacted quite a bit, and rightly so.

But if we clear our heads and look at it as football people and not as emotional fans, we can see that this team does in fact have the talent to right the ship.

We've seen them do it. We've seen DJ hit his correct assignments. We've seen the D-line hold up against the run. We know what Charles and Bowe are capable of.

It's a matter of WILL they do it?

We know these players are CAPABLE of doing it.

It's just a matter of whether they'll get it done or not, and whether RaC has the ability to get a high level of play out of them.

Um, Matt Cassel.

Because it doesn't have to. The "cap minimum" is spending vs. the cap.

They're already satisfying the criteria going into effect.

They could literally not change a thing and be fine, at least that's the way I understand it. I'm not really cap guru, either.

Unfortunately for the Chiefs, they don't have a nice string of shitty teams lined up on the schedule like previous seasons... until possibly December (after Luck has 14 games under his belt). OTOH, they could go on a nice little winning streak to end the season and spin it all offseason...

I guess i need to define "Right the ship".

By "right the ship" i mean become competitive and able to carry Matt Cassel, not become the Falcons.

That is possibly even more pathetic.

Does the cash spending include coaches salaries and executive golf memberships?

Thanks... Hopefully there will be some in depth articles about this going into next year.

You can't underestimate guys like Pioli imo... He's a master manipulator. Not just some used car salesman.
