Posting this as a repository for random training camp content. Glad to see Andy moving around today without the cane.

It wouldn't be PUP it would be IR, you cant go on PUP once you have participated in a single practice.

I also want to see Gore make this team, as I think he’s at least as good as Williams and younger/cheaper.

Also give me Fountain over Kemp and Fortson over Bell.

I want Tim ward to make it, because it was really nice seeing a huge dude in #92 actually produce. Like if Kpass was actually talented.

Ward isn't going anywhere. They cut Taco. Ward's going to play.

Ward kind of looked like a badass so far. I'm optimistic

QB: Mahomes, Henne
RB: CEH, Williams, McKinnon, Gore
FB: Burton
TE: Kelce, Bell, Gray, Fortson
T: Brown, Niang, Remmers, Wylie
C/G: Humphrey, Blythe, Thuney, Smith, Allegretti,
WR: Hill, Hardman, Pringle, Robinson, Kemp, Fountain

DE: Jones, Okafor, Kaindoh, Clark, Danna, Ward
DT: Reed, Wharton, Nnadi, Saunders
LB: Hitchens, Gay, Bolton, Neiman, DoD
CB: Ward, Sneed, Hughes, Fenton, Baker
S:Mathieu, Sorenson, Thornhill, Watts

Offense: 26
Defense: 24

The players i considered for the final roster spot: Bell, LDT, Key.

I went with Bell ultimately because he's a special teamer who has a couple of years in the offense. I understand that cutting LDT doesn't make salary
cap sense, but i think the Chiefs care more about the best roster than what makes salary cap sense. LDT missed a year of football and was running with the 3rd team, mostly, before getting hurt.

I would replace Wylie with PTW

Wanogho isn't going anywhere either.

I would be shocked if Kemp and Bell were cut...that doesn't mean that Fountain or Fortson will be cut though... tough decisions to come.

We're not going undefeated, dude.

Henne only proved that he could make a couple big plays. From the moment he came in the game until the clock expired, the Browns scored more points than we did. If Henne starts that one, we lose.

Thankfully we don't play a team the caliber of the Browns every week of the season.

And we’re not the same team we were last year.

I'd put the Ravens, Bills, Packers, and Titans on or near the same level. Not to mention a few tough divisional games against LV and LA.

What he said all around just isn't going to happen. We won't go undefeated and Henne didn't prove that he can beat anyone.

Of course odds are against it... but we had a makeshift shitty offensive line most of last year and we really lost one regular season game, and then we got beat up worse and lost the Superbowl. If we stay healthy we should be favored in every game... so yes, there's a chance.

Yes, we are a really good team with an amazing QB and top-notch coaching.. we still ain't going undefeated.

The chances of making it through the season without losing major contributors to injury or COVID are just too low. Plus we are always good for at least one game a season in which we suck ass. We lost to the ****ing Raiders last year.

We need a Kicker, Punter & Longsnapper this year my dude!

Still frustrated the roster sizes haven't increased to 55 or 56, with all the injuries that happen in a given year and now the additional game.

again, the odds are against it happening, meaning less than 50%, probably much less, but if healthy, we will be favored in every game.

Yea we aren’t going undefeated.

Nor should we want that. I’d much rather win 14 games and win the SB. I don’t care about going undefeated in the regular season. That just means they might be burnt out and due for a loss when it matters most.
