I mean - Clark was here for 4 years with the understanding that it was 'his' defense. Then he got cut and let walk for a relative pittance of a deal. So it's not even entirely about role on the field - he has to be understanding of his role in this lockerroom. This isn't his defense anymore and coming back here isn't going to change that. Can he accept being a journeyman the way Dunlap did? That's an open question. He clearly didn't take to it in Denver...

That's basic organizational harmony stuff. There isn't a power vacuum in the Chiefs defense. They've done quite well in his absence. Him coming in and trying his standard Frank Clark brand of faux dawg tough guy leadership isn't going to be beneficial to a unit that's already established its identity while he was in Denver stealing paychecks. He was the leader of a defense that was never anywhere close to as good as the unit he'd be coming back to. His job is no longer to BE a leader. It's to be a role-player who knows when its time to follow. When it's time to keep his head down and play hard when he's on the field as opposed to strut around like his shit doesn't stink before taking 80% of his time in uniform off. The problem is that Clark almost certainly has the same shit-for-brains understanding of this as you seem to have.

If Chris Jones showed up in the postseason like The Shark does, maybe some wouldn’t feel that way.

It'd be one thing if he were this reliable veteran who made the right read and the right play every time, even if he came up short. I didn't see that last year. He makes mistakes. All the time. If I'm going to play a guy who makes mistakes, let it be a young player who will learn. |

They jerk off to this 'blood in the water' horseshit. It's not about his performance - nobody really tries to defend that anymore. They just swoon over the swagger and act like it's instrumental to building a defense. Nevermind that the defense has been better this year than it ever was with him or that it was improving last season as he was phased out.

Absolutely. Pretty sure Dunlap is basically done and just hasn't formally announced his retirement, but if he's not and he's only waiting for the right price to be offered, I'd rather take him at last year's contract than sign Shart for vet minimum.
