You really need to share the crack you have been smoking.

That's how i read it.

I hadn't really considered that, but if that's the case, not a good look for JuJu. On the flipside, would he really need this kind of incentive to realize he needs to have a big year for his own future earnings?

Ah yes. More money. The only known cure for hobo spirit.

I find it hard to beleive that JuJu needs any more motivation to play every game when he's in his 2nd consecutive contract year, and probably his last real opportunity to earn a big contract.

::clap:

Ju Ju was catching passes from Mahomes before the game- he fine!

heard on radio today that juju still isn't 100%

Meh. No game for several days.

If he can't go I guess we need to scoop some broke dick like Cole Beasley

Unsubstantiated rumor.

Gameday routine

San Diego has a good defense Staley is one of the better defensive guys in the league. They shut Kelce down too

This dude ****in suck or nah?

Nah. He's gonna be our leading receiver with over 1k yards this season.

Put some respect on his name.

I think he plays wide receiver for the KC Chiefs. Imo.

Chiefs wanted him last year and we got him this year, they obviously know he’s good lol.

Skyy Moore dynasty cannot happen if he continues to get only 2 offensive snaps a game.

JuJu is a brokedick so far

He’s on pace for 800 yards, hoss.

Gotta let you in on a secret, Tits. They left Sandy Eggo years ago.

Last night I kept saying San Diego. My son kept reminding me they were from Las Vegas. I realized no one really gives a shit where they are from.

I hope Skyy starts taking some of MVS's snaps.

no he is not but I hope im wrong here

I think he musta ****ed Gracie. And Mr Clark, I mean Hunt, is mad.

45 yards a game with no td s will get you to 800, i guess Ben Chartright

You know, it's almost like he is a rookie WR in an Andy Reid offense.

Almost.

Has Juju drawn any double teams in the first two games?

Can you Belize it?

I definitely Belize it!

Yes, but every receiver has.

The first week he was targeted 20% of the time. He had one more target than reception. This week he was targeted 8% and had 3 reception on 3 targets.

I think every thing is going exactly like Patrick said it was. Beyond Kelce, there is going to be a different guy every week. Seems like to me that Mahomes is not locking on any WR at the moment. That is a good thing IMO.

Juju isn’t a wr1 nor should he be expected to be. He will be fine. But some other wr needs to step up. At this point Mecole is vulturing snaps from skyy moore. Moores success will feed into JuJus. If teams are gonna throw blitzes at us we need WRs who will punish with quick hitters. I’ve always seen juju as a guy who can kill you underneath but that becomes less useful if teams stopped respecting our deep pass.

Game 1 was all man and lots of blitz. Patrick threw to the guys that beat their man.

Game 2 was mostly zone and little blitzing because SD front 4 we’re getting insane pressure, They boxed Kelce and juJu almost all the time. Hardman was clearly the plan this week. It’s all good

Four receivers for the Chiefs had between 44 and 51 yards. That tells me PMII was throwing it to whoever was open and where he could get him the ball. Sucks for you fantasy players but it worked Thursday.

Yep.

There is no 'WR1', there are 'WRs'. And sometimes, depending on the play, that might include the actual WRs, Kelce, Fortson, Gray, or CEH split either out wide or in the slot.

And on any given play, the match-up advantage will get the ball.

Depending on the opponent and their scheme, different skill-sets from the cast of receivers will prove more useful so their numbers will be higher in that game. Rinse and repeat all season long.

The problem is I think mvs and mecole bring similar things to the table. What we needed vs lac was skyy moore. A guy who can run sharp routes, then catch and run even without very much space. It doesn’t do is good to have 2 burners when your qb barely has time to get rid of the ball. I know Andy eases WRs along but in games like this he has got to get skyy moore involved. I hate agreeing with Richard Sherman but he’s absolutely right that the chargers played us as if they have zero respect for our WRs. It’s not so much about having a WR1 to laser in on, it’s about having some guy out of that group defenses will actually account for.

You want the ball then get open. No more force feeding double coverage. This is Mahomes becoming great.

Gonna guess Reid's offense is complicated and they arent fully comfortable rolling him out yet

This...

Juju and mvs and watson all rookies to andy reid offense. Did Watson even make it down to Mahomes place in Texas over the offseason?

Last super bowl champ who didnt have a bonafide #1 wr? Its been a minute

Rookie on a short week, no time to actually do a game plan. I guess that's why no Sky plays/reps.

JJSS had a pretty key block (so did Kelce) on the long CEH run in the 4th.

Quite a few of those Patriots teams didn't have a star WR

It doesn't really matter who is a rookie or not because they've all had the same reps with the new offense.

For some reason the coaching staff is not as high in skyy as many of we are. He looks the part for a great slot wr who can occasionally make then pay deep but hard to know what we have at this point.

How many of the teams with a bonafide #1 WR have a Kelce?

On the other hand, Tyreek Hill did have 61 receptions as a rookie despite being new to the WR position.

FYP just a little.

I mean, kelce could be argued to be that #1 WR and then some.

Hard to choose between kelce and jamar chase or kelce and Justin Jefferson when you get asked the question

Thats a good point. Chiefs definitely have that going for them similar to the Pats Gronk years.

2018 Patriots?

2016 Patriots didn’t even have Gronk for most of the year. He missed the SB

The last non-Patriots team (without an elite defense, so no Seattle) to win without a #1 WR is probably the 2012 Ravens. Anquan Boldin could be a beast though

Should we go ahead and extend him during the bye week?

Offense is coming together. Our wr s are getting with the Mahomes program and he is trusting them more.

Go ahead and extend this guy Veach. He’s the best big receiver we’ve had since Sammy Watkins. Just like Sammy he’s fast, strong and breaks tackles. But Juju isn’t a broke dick.

The MVS and Juju additions have paid serious dividends for us

Looked really good. I've been sh***ing on him and thinking he's washed as much as anyone here so I'll happily take the lumps. If he keeps playing like this he'll have been a big success. If we can give Pat time he really is going to give these guys crazy numbers.

The last couple of weeks he's demonstrated the physicality people were wanting to see from him.

That early season pick where he didn't fight for the ball (Colts game-ender, IIRC) annoyed me quite a bit because dammit, that's why he's here...or so I thought.

But the last couple of weeks he's had catch and runs where he's powered through guys after he caught it. So maybe this isn't a contested catch thing where he's going to fight through contact for the football. Maybe it's a Sammy Watkins, YAC thing where we'll get him the ball quickly and with some room and then he fights through contact for additional yards.

That's probably the best way to utilize his strength. Not this 'he knows where the holes in the zone are' stuff or the 'he'll battle for the ball and be a 3rd down/red zone weapon' kind of Dwayne Bowe stuff.

But rather than he'll be a quasi-RB after the catch like Watkins was when he was healthy.

he's made several contested catches this year that i don't think tyreek brings in

Re-sign that man!

My posts appear to have motivated him.

On top of the production, him and MVS have sold that KC is the place for WR's to go to rebuild value.

Extend Juju and let Hardman walk.

MVS
Juju
Moore
Watson

Draft another guy next year. Preferably someone who can return kicks/punts.

Is re sign him during the bye week 5/90 seems about right

Hardman is only coming back if he signs for nothing. JuJu may price himself out of coming back if he continues putting up numbers.

Similar to the chiefs Gonzales years.

Seriously doubt that.

I wonder if he won't want to focus on more of a 2 year deal to try to hit FA again one more time before he gets to 30.

Because a 5 year deal is really just a 3 year deal with some chaff at the back end. So with that in place, he'd hit FA after his age 29 season and that is often a red flag number for some teams.

I wouldn't be open to giving JuJu 14+ mill a year, he could probably get that on the market.

No way he's getting 14. Maybe 10.

I'm not convinced he will get 14M+

If he comes out of the year with 1100-1200 yards he's going to get more than 10.

MVS is getting 10 now and Juju is better. He's getting at 12-16M.

Take your comp pick and go find the next value vet FA WR looking to have a big year to cash in.

He basically makes 10 right now...

The elite guys after Tyreek and Adams got in the $24/25 million range.

Juju isn’t at that level but a bump up from $10 million seems fair. No problem with him getting $15 million avg.

He’s worth that IMO

After the SF game, they interviewed JuJu and he was, apparently, wearing a harness that I assume kept his shoulder stabilized. Anyone know if he was having shoulder issues?

Saw a post he got like shocked therapy the next day.

He had a shoulder injury last year that required surgery. I would assume it is to help him not reinjure is again.

As far as salary goes at his present pace, I could see Juju commanding in the 15-18m/yr range. The Chiefs were paying on average Hammy Watkins about 14 million per season for his time here.

If you aren't willing to pay Juju at least 1 million more per year than you did for Mr.PerpetuallyInjured for twice the production, we are in a world of hurt.

You guys that don't think Juju is getting $14m per have not been paying attention.

I’d wait till OBJ signs wherever before thinking of extending Juju

I really want to re-sign Juju. Love his game here.
