Did he step out of the way on the 3rd and short in the Saturday game against the Chargers? Nope. Who made the tackle and almost had the strip to win the Titans game? Peters did.

Kelce has cost KC in big time games...and has ACTUALLY been ejected. Peters never has...I'm on his side for throwing that flag. It was a previous BS call that cost KC points and ultimately the game...

Fans took a dump on him for sitting through the anthem...which was always a staged event paid for by the DOD that the owners used as an additional cash stream. It wasn't even a protest against the military...football fans are stupid and think they are veiling their racism....they probably arent introspective enough to even realize they are doing it.

There has been video of Brady screaming at his OC...but it's all good.

This whole thing reeks of Hunt wanting (threatening with an ultimatum) to force his players to stand during the anthem....while he rips off tax payers in new Mexico. The hypocrisy is rich...

People - especially NFL fans - always underestimate the value of consistency. Coaches prefer guys they can count on vs. guys who may be shit but also may be incredible You can't scheme around "potentially might be shit, but also might be all-world. We'll see when it actually happens."

NFL schemes are based on everyone working in concert to serve the whole. Even guys like Favre, Roethlesberger, and Mahomes - guys who can make magic happen by improvisation - are coached to reign it in and play within the system.

Saying that Peters "stepped it up when it mattered" is disingenuous, because it presupposes that regular plays do not matter. If you "step up" on 2nd and four in the start of the third quarter, you might not need to step up on 3rd and short with 2 minutes left in the game.

All the plays matter to coaches.

Peters tackled. How many first downs or touchdowns did he allow from "not tackling"

Know one in 2 seconds just off the top of my head. Raiders game on Oakland on drive he got personal foul on Carr. Could have lit up Patterson on a low throw on 3rd down but chose not to even touch him. Things about MP can be defended to a degree, but his tackling last year was not one of those.

I've dealt with people like peters at work. I run a run a group of welders at a manufacturing facility. I had one guy who occasionally displayed his full potential as a high quality welder at a fast rate. When first hired, he was "hungry" to prove his worth and convinced me to bump him up in pay. After a while, it was obvious why a talented welder was unemployed in the first place. His life outside work (drugs and alcohol), directly affected his work ethics and just general attitude toward leadership and coworkers. Over time, we were forced to let him go for the better of the line as a whole.

Although an entirely different scenario, this kind of related to Peters and the Chiefs organization. While Peters excels at his skilled profession, his attitude is detrimental to the team as a whole.

Confrontation with his mom? I could google it, but do you have any clues on where to find something on it? I hadn't heard about that.

When it was needed, Peters made the tackle. He’s not ****ing Antoine Winfield
