So you admit it's NOT just a made up thing?
Because players, if healthy, generally do play better during a contract yr.
Ford just can't stay healthy ever. And that also matters. Chiefs have been recent repeat victims of contract extensions = players ridin' the pine.
Make Ford do it again under the tag, get another good season out of him. Maybe by some miracle act of God, Speaks will have dropped a shit load of weight by then, gains strength/muscle, and gains the much needed quickness in his game so that letting Ford walk in 2020 won't be such a hard pill to swallow with 2 seasons/offseasons under his belt. Wishful thinking...
I do not think Ford, Berry, AND Houston will all 3 be Chiefs next season. 1 of those players will be gone. Personally I think its Berry. I think the Chiefs go after Collins in FA and Berry ends up being a post June 1 cut.
