Listen to that Reid interview with Eisen (I believe). That third down play in OT that caused SF to kick a FG was epic. He was exhausted and gave all that he had left and the rest was history. He is a huge reason why KC has three Lombardis in five years and that will get him in the Ring of Honor and cheers when he comes back for that ceremony.

Gonzalez didn't go to the Raiders or the Broncos...so most everyone gave him a bye...except when there was a quote that he would go to the Hall of Fame as a Falcon...
Neil Smith went to the hated Broncos so he lost some luster to me....Rodney Hudson left the Chiefs and went to the hated Raiders and everyone despised him.
If Jones leaves and goes to any where but Denver or Las Vegas I will wish him the best and look forward to seeing him shine save for any time he faces the Chiefs.
If he goes to the Broncos or Raiders he will get my Neil Smith treatment.
