Make.

It.

Happen.

You guys told me it was a transition year. 2019 (next season) is the year to go for the SB.

Everybody THOUGHT it was a transition year.

It's obvious now that Mahomes is WAY ahead of schedule.

Mahomes has matured faster than expected.

Consider it family-time you selfish bastard!

Update? :D

Seattle isn't trading him

It's on the Dlow for now.

God what a douchebag, why do you care about it so much? Why do you have to come here and kill the fun?

The time is now, and unfortunately the Chiefs are going to have to look elsewhere for a safety. ET wants top safety money and when Eric Berry is healthy again he will want the same if not more, and neither one of them wants to lose their number's on their back. The only way I see this happening is if we have plans to trade Berry because he's not the same player after injury, which isn't happening btw. Basically, this is all a ploy to get ET top dollar from Seattle, not to say he won't take it from some other team provided the Seachickens trade his rights away. It just won't be here, they most likely want a first round pick, second rounds have been offered by now and yet he still remains on the team. Also, just because he was paid top dollar at safety with his current contract, don't think for a second he's going to except a chicken scrap extension here and be happy about it. I know Seth thinks we can afford him long term, but Tyreek will want top dollar too, Fuller won't be cheap, neither will Jones, he also failed to mention Dee Ford as well... nor is Houston restructuring his contract. Just saying get used too the idea of Parker/Sorenson this year unless something else pops up, but we've let Reid and Breeland slip through our fingers, don't be surprised when ET slips too.

Wat.

I'M sorry that reality is a bitch.

Because you can tell the future, right?

Seriously, you're just being mean, not realistic.

Not really. I hear stuff, so take it as you will...

Like Andy Reid going to be HC for KC or the Chiefs drafting a 1st round QB.

That shit will never happen.

Yeah, now that the Berry news is out, Seattle has carte blanche to **** us in the ass in terms of compensation. Good job handling Berry, you ****ing mongoloids.

You have ears in the Seattle front office?

They could have done the deal already and been ahead of it.

Too late now. **** bringing in a safety that old, anyway. He'll get some bizzare deformity or injury and we'll misdiagnose it so badly it'll effectively ruin his career.

The Berry news has no bearing. They were going to **** us in the ass regardless. They weren’t letting go for a song.

ROFL

If that's what you believe then we might as well just lock up Arrowhead and send everybody home because you believe in voodoo and curses.

No, I'm being serious right now. I have absolutely no confidence in this staff anymore to properly treat these athletes. Bringing in an undersized safety who is going to be on the wrong side of 30 soon sounds like a recipe to throw more cap space into the bonfire.

Berry can play through the pain this year, but he would better off if he did the surgery on his heel now vs the off-season.

I'll take my carte Blanche with sprinkles please

I love this idea that the Chiefs employ a bunch of incompetent doctors.

Earl Thomas isn't undersized nor is he on the wrong side of 30. :facepalm:

It’s ****ing reeruned.

What old guys have we gotten burned by? Berry didn't just start magically breaking down, neither did Justin Houston. Their problems started when they were still young. So which "old" guys actually hurt us recently?

The best example I can think of is Alex Smith and that dude was never hurt.

And we got one on the team!

They've had a hand in ****ing up both of our highest paid players on defense. It's quite concerning.

I heard he would have been a multiple time all pro and have a ring if he wasn't undersized. Sadly he'll never be a good safety at the size he is.

You realize injuries are frequent like this in football RIGHT? This isn't a Chiefs issue...

He's a fantastic football player. Don't think I've ever said otherwise.

Yep. And sometimes guys just have it bad. Berry is obviously snakebit. It sucks because he's one of my favorite all-time Chiefs...

What exactly did they do wrong? Please explain in full detail without making assumptions if possible.

lol undersized..

You know who else is undersized? Aaron Donald. Antonio Brown. Tyreek Hill. Tarik Cohen. Russell Wilson. Drew Brees.

“I didn’t have all my strength in that leg,” Houston said. “I was out there pretty much on one leg, but no excuses—I was out there, so I had to do my job.”

Justin Houston on playing during the 2016 and 2017 seasons. Good job, Chiefs doctors.

Eric Berry has a sore heel last year that leads to him overcompensating and blowing out his Achilles in the other foot.

The heel in question is sore again and it turns out theres a bone spur that would make playing extremely painful for the rest of his career. Already 3 weeks into the regular season and he hasn't had surgery to fix it yet. Good job, Chiefs doctors.

Sign him.

Lol what? He's a Seahawk

This Berry thing raises a lot of questions. Interesting - hoping something is close with ET.

The new Berry news just put jet fuel in this threads burst

No more jacking around, Brett Veach... its now time to GO GET this dude

He's a multiple time all pro but lets discuss his size, and he isn't really little either.

5'10 210-215

Yeah, not worried about his size

This isnt the 'let Mahomes get his feet wet' year most of us envisioned, Money is clearly ready enough to make a legit run at the SB... with just an average defense, we're a straight up contender

I was actually against this move the first few days after the rumors started flying

They want too much!

We have 10-15 years of Mahomes!

Dont mortgage the farm for an old safety!

But reality soon slapped me upside the head and said... THE FUTURE IS RIGHT NOW

:clap::clap::clap:

The thing is - we make it happen and worry about manipulation later on. We have a quick closing window here and now and next yr.

:clap::clap::clap:

Ok. Have the 2 highest paid safeties in the NFL on your team. When they're both going to be 30 years old next season. Sounds good to me.

Dude, I'm so glad you're finally on board!!!!

Gang, it WILL happen now

Does next season matter when they could win the Super Bowl THIS SEASON? :rolleyes:

People act like it's their money. It's silly.

I didn't know Earl Thomas had magic powers that guarantee us a Super Bowl.

It's not like the Chiefs won't be moving on from other highly paid guys really quickly...also everyone thought Marcus Peters was going to get a huge deal here so what's wrong with giving that money to Thomas?

Even if he ends up playing some this year, contract or not... you have to separate yourself from the idea of Berry being a safety on this team

His body is just rapidly breaking down, he isnt long for the NFL IMO

Let Veach and Clark worry about the money, we need a new safety

Then drop any talks about Earl Thomas and get Eric Berry the **** off this team first.

You're not being reasonable

What are they supposed to do with him right now, just summarily release him?

That wouldnt play well in the locker room, or anywhere else

Who said anything about a guarantee? This team is a top contender right now. A healthy Berry probably puts them over the top. Unfortunately Berry isn't healthy.

In what way would the Berry news impact anything?

Seriously man, what are you afraid of? Winning a few playoff games?

Come to an injury settlement and get him the **** out of here. If he won't do that then NFI him and be done with it. My sympathy for brokedicks on the Chiefs is gone.

Especially since the Chiefs have been lying about Berry's status for weeks...

A team source on Monday told NFL.com's Jeffri Chadiha that the Chiefs continue to inquire about a trade for Thomas but admits it would be difficult pull off. The source said the interest in Thomas is not related to any concerns over the health of Eric Berry.

Berry has dealt with a heel injury that has prevented him from practicing since early August and he's also returning from a ruptured Achilles tendon he suffered in the 2017 regular-season opener.


Bull. ****ing. Shit.

How is this injury a NFI?

You didn't answer the question. How does the news impact the trade?

It's a pain management issue and Berry will play later in the year and in the playoffs. I really think some of you guys didn't even read the article that was posted.
Posted via Mobile Device

This isn't a career ending surgery, if he has the surgery now he can come back next year ready to play. Or simply tough it out, risk damaging the Achilles, and get it done in the off-season.

As my last sarcastic post indicated, the Chiefs have been lying about Berry's "day to day" status for months. Which means they've known all along that Berry was in this situation and also means they've been pursuing Earl Thomas knowing this as well.

This latest thing has zero impact on anybody that's on the inside of this deal. They all already know what's going on with Berry and have for a while. Unless of course, the Chiefs didn't really know and people are accusing them of lying for, you know, a reason to bitch and moan.

All indications are that there's not much risk to the Achilles. It's a pain issue mostly.

Great. So they either lied once again about a player being injured or are so grossly incompetent that they can't diagnose a bone spur.

Then lock the doors of Arrowhead and forfeit the rest of the games. These guys can't be trusted!

Pain management for a player making 78 million dollars? Get the **** out of here. Shoot some morphine into that shit and get him out there right ****ing now.

Getting the best safety in football would help this team A LOT.

Why not go for it, especially if it only cost a 2nd?

One thousand seven hundred and twenty one posts to go gang.

If it costs a 2nd I'd be ecstatic. The Seahawks have already turned that down from the Cowboys so I'm guessing their sights are aimed higher.
