What better way to showcase ones talents than on a contending team.
If Law truly believes that he one of the top talents, he signs with the Chiefs for a one year deal, proves himself on the field to be in top form and then goes for the big contract the following year.

If Law wants to showcase his talents on a contending team, He'd probably look to Jacksonville before KC.

WOW!!!! You'de think a player the caliber of Law would drool at the thought of playing defense opposite Surtain. Imagine the numbwer of balls that'll come his way in comparison to previous seasons. The two of them could practically shut down the passing game. Thus, allowing D. Johnson and Bell to make the QB's head ring. On top of that, our offense is loaded with talent to make up for an occasional mistake or two.

If the Chiefs sign Law, I'de have to say the Chiefs are a favorite to win it all this season.

Maybe he would like the chance to play opposite Surtain. But maybe he'd be concerned about the rest of the defense.

Looking at it from an objective viewpoint, I'd say Jax might be more likely to be the "contender" from his point of view. For a number of reasons.

1. They were better than us last year, and have done nothing to get worse. There's no reason to think they can't repeat what they did last year.

2. They have a better defense. KC has added a lot of pieces, but we still don't know what the puzzle will look like. Meanwhile, Jax had a very good, aggressive D, and their only weak spot was CB.

3. They play in a weaker conference. The only real competition is Indy, and they can beat Indy.

I think KC has a very good chance at being a very good team, but we need the defense to come together. Jacksonville is already a very good team, where Law could be the final tweak that makes them a great team. I just think if "I want to play for a winner" is really a factor, Jacksonville looks more like a winner than KC at this point.

But honestly, I don't think that has anything to do with it. I think it's all about the money. I also think we won't get him because of that. Personally, I won't be happy if we spend a lot of money on him unless it's a one year deal.
