Chiefs La Canfora-Peters trade was mandated by Clark Hunt - Page 17

Keep in mind that La Canfora had the Peters news days before anyone else did.

I believe him

People jumped all over Tamba Hali last offseason when he questioned the leadership, or lack of leadership, on this team. He was 100% correct.

The team lacks discipline. They committed way too many penalties last year and were soft. How many third down plays were called back for a dumb penalty? Where was the defensive leadership when the team needed a stop on 3rd down?

Andy let Kelce and Peters get away with way too much until it eventually boiled over for Peters against the Jets. I'm not saying Peters is a saint or blameless. I was disgusted by his sitting during the anthem after the Vegas shooting. I'm sure he was a headache during the week. But if you have a strong coaching and locker room presence, I don't think things get out of hand like they did.

This thread is solid proof that a good number of fans were never going to accept Peters again for kneeling or sitting during the anthem, and that race is in an undercurrent in these events.

KC is a team that can keep negotiations a secret when they want, but they went out of their way to leak as much dirt (and who really knows what is true) on Peters as humanly possible. It's not a good look. At the end of the day Peters does not have any off field arrests or investigations. No suspensions or drug use. He was never fined for skipping meetings or conduct detrimental to the team, or anything like that.

For fans to now claim he sucks and wasn't that good, is just an absolute joke. He pretty much shut down his side of the field and his turnover numbers are crazy. For people to be offended that Peters thought Smith got a raw deal is funny and just strengthens the whole perception of the midwest sports having an inferiority complex.

At the end of the day I still don't understand the need to trade Peters immediately for a very poor return. It sure seems like ownership had a role in the decision. In any event Peters gets out of a team that ended up being a bad fit for him and finds himself on an ascending team on the west coast closer to home. KC is left trying to fill his shoes on Sunday but saves on some aspirin for its headache during the week. The team also knows that its loyal and conservative fan base will buy it's sales pitch hook, line and sinker and end up rationalizing the decision. Season tickets are on sale.

Here is part of a post I made in #162.

It is worth a shot for McVay/Kroenke if they can pull off a SB in the next 2yrs preferably next year because IF they can, then they can say "adios Marcus, because we don't trust you with a big contract, living in LA close to your homies with your immature ego that now more than likely will only be exacerbated and your play on the field will likely disappear screwing our cap up as well".

Anyone who thinks the Rams will automatically give this guy a BIG CONTRACT 'even IF" MP is a choirboy these next 2yrs(in order to get paid) with decent production is very naive. They know he is Lawrence Phillips of the CBs no doubt !!

I saw that interview on NFLN and obviously the Rams did as well. This kid hasn't changed a bit and the Rams know it as well and who they are getting.

you can disagree all you want, but you are wrong! lol Just look at say hot actresses, they go through so many dudes for the most part.

you will see an insane contract peters is given when its time for his contract to be signed.

The moment Marcus cursed out fans and it went viral was the moment Clark started disliking this guy.

And I don’t blame him. It’s bad business for your star players doing that to your customers.

And posts like this are why he got traded, and if you are in this belief that you're happy he's gone, don't bitch when the team sucks. Because it's obvious you value the team being other things over being a winner because they made a move that does not help them win games here.

tmax63 · 02-27-2018, 07:46 AM

You don't have to like it but everyone else now knows that no one is above the rules in the Chiefs locker room. And apparently the Chiefs accept a fairly high level of horseshit in the locker room because when MP got his butt traded no one else save the Rams was very interested. The Rams think he'll help them win a SB in the year or two while he's on good behavior trying to get his big payday. I "pity the fool" to quote Mr. T that gives Peters anything close to the payday his play has earned.

I’m telling you guys, he was almost RELEASED in the middle of last season. I posted that st the time, and know this to be fact.

Post 246 by doomy3 in the first thread
Also during the game. Also, Peters knew he wasn’t kicked out and was told to go on field. He proceeded to strip down and get in the shower. They piled him out with soap on him. That’s why he didn’t have socks on.

He’s a mess.

This was more or less confirmed by Peters himself on NFLN last night. If doomy3 was just guessing then he's a Goddamn sightseer.

The entitlement of chiefs fans is ****ing unbelievable... that being said. Clark Hunt is a joke now.

There’s POS fans on every team in every stadium. Dude just gave up a 50 something yard TD and fans heckled him. So what? That’s going to happen. Hell it happened to Alex for 5 years.

Marcus is a loose cannon with his emotions. The moment the Rams start having serious adversity he'll become a problem.

These types of guys never change.

Some of you lack any sort of critical thinking skills if you truly beilieve this is all about Clark and the national anthem.

Good grief.

A responsible owner looks at the situation and the compensation offered and says "that's a shitty deal." Tell your coaches to make it ****ing work for one more season while the CB depth is acquired and developed.

He doesn't just draw a line in the sand and say "he has to go. Get rid of him." If it were about principles, Clark would have cut him on the ****ing spot

Forgive me for not giving a franchise that is one of the leagues biggest losers the benefit of the doubt that they have in no way shape or form earned.

If it was about principles there are several guys on this team that wouldn't be on this team, this is about Clarks personal views and his pocket book.

doomy3 straight up said he almost was cut after the game, and he's been dead on accurate about parts of the situation.
