Ho hum. Yeah, I said it. This team ho hums itself to 14 wins. It’s not even hard anymore. This offseason isn’t moving the needle at all, if anything the Chiefs D has gotten drastically better and the offense will be fine because Superman wears #15, and we also have Lex Luthor as our HC. How does anyone really stand a chance?

I do think everybody may be sleeping on the fact that Mahomes is probably entering his prime this year. I know he’s regarded as the best, but I think we’re about to see exactly how much better he is than everybody else.
Veach is going to notch more weapons for him, now, during the draft, and like you said, we’ll after the draft. He’s going to add tackle depth. And he’s going to have the resources left over to add a promising pass rusher (or two) and stock the cabinet at DT.
Riddick and Mahomes both told us one way or another that a party was coming. I truly believe it is.
What if the Chiefs make zero major additions at this point and have even an average draft? They’re probably 12-5 with a Top 2 seed in the AFC. But with what Veach can do, I agree with a 14 win prediction.
And this is just all general talent level. But it’s not going to matter, because when January rolls around, I simply don’t think you can ever pick against Mahomes again so long as he’s reasonably healthy.
If Veach follows through, there is a legit chance at a threepeat. They just won the Super Bowl in a retooling year with a one legged Mahomes!
