We're in the era of paying Mahomes now. Things are different. The Bills and Bengals will be entering their own eras of paying their guys this offseason and next. You'll see.
Mahomes+Best 52 is what puts you in the SB hunt every season for the next 10-15 years. This is the way.
Do not overpay anywhere. We are not 'ONE GUY AWAY' ever. We are right there, with as good of a shot as anyone anytime we line up with #15. If KC shows up focused and on it, nobody beats them. They do occasionally just beat themselves, but it must be a herculean task to be laser focused at all times, 20 games a season, year in and year out.
Draft well. Spend carefully in free agency. Do not mortgage your future at any time. Mahomes+Best 52,

Well tell that to the people who want to give huge contracts to both lines. Do you realize how expensive that is? They want an all world OL. And 3 studs on the DL. And a top 5 defense. With an explosive offense you need those things less and less, and I think people are way too complacent with how we've looked the second half of the season. We've been just efficient enough on offense. I like where we are heading but without a shadow of a doubt our WRs have struggled the second half of the season.
Me? I don't want to design this offense around Alex Smith. Where more and more and more of our offense centers around our non-kelce TEs and Rbs in the screen game. That is taking away mahomes, not supporting him
And people seem strangely reactive to paying one WR big money... But sure let's pay juju WR1 money to not be a WR1. And mvs $10m to disappear 90% of the time. And extend hardman. And despite what everyone is selling we don't have to pay obscene money to get that WR1.
