I’m thinking 2 more great years from Jones with a couple years of decline and 1 more Super Bowl during his deal.

It’s all about the winning for me. Idc if Chris ever has another 15 sack season. Does he continue to show up and win games in the playoffs, big regular season matchups for seeding/division, etc.?
Cause now that Veach is already having to do things like trade Sneed to offset a monster contract like this, so much of the pressure is shifted to the front office to make the right player acquisitions around Chris, Patrick, Kelce.
Those guys are the pillars you don’t win it all without, but they can’t win it on their own.
As long as we keep building a beast and win a championship in the next three years, hopefully multiple, it’ll be a success for sure.
And that’s the thing about the alternate reality of losing Chris this year — we just have no idea how long it would have taken to overcome it. It very well may have sank our chances in 2024 specifically because with Omenihu’s injury, it was gonna be damn hard to add the necessary pass rushers to compete at the highest level in 2024.
