I would be thrilled if Mahomes can get 2 more rings, which would undeniably put him above Joe Montana. Getting 5 rings in the salary cap era is a big damn deal. Montana didn't have to watch his best players walk out the door, which already happened to Mahomes with Tyreek and it's gonna happen some more with the likes of Chris Jones or LJ Sneed, Willie Gay, and so forth. |

I know we can’t look into other timelines and we’ve had some really unfortunate stuff besides D Ford. Our Offensive line in SB 55 decided the game and we totally had that Bengals games. If we beat the Bengals we might be celebrating a 3 peat right now! But…… you can’t really look at it that way imo. Maybe if we beat the Rams we keep Tyreek because of some weird butterfly effect shit lol And then we don’t have our amazing D and the new number 10. Mahomes will definitely have to change his style of play if he can play as long as Tom. I’m just hoping we can build the perfect team around him to allow a crazy run in his 30’s |

Before the playoffs/SB, I was convinced the Chiefs would extend Sneed and let Jones walk.
Now I think they do the opposite. |

Not holding my breath but really hope Jones takes something lower just to be a Chief. But Sneed has got to get a big pay day. I can’t blame the dude. I think whoever wins the SB should be exempt form the salary cap for one year in my unbiased opinion |

Did we have to have a great WR when Hill left? Embrace change.

That said, I think Bolton can fill that role if Jones leaves. Leadership is a skill that I believe can be taught to the right individual and I think Bolton has that ability. He may even be better at it than Jones is, as Jones comes off as a bit of a clown at times. Quote:
So while Mahomes is better I don't think the gap is huge and we will see how Mahomes adapts as he gets older and loses some of the speed he has. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 02-17-2024 at 02:59 AM.. |

It's where can you get the best ROI. Trying to sustain the first or second best D probably isn't where it's at. Especially if it means a big third contract. Maybe Veach and Jones will reach a deal. I'm not rooting against it. It would be great if Jones took a deal Veach was comfortable with. I just think other teams will be willing to offer more and Jones is going to end up leaving.

Joe Montana had the Bill Walsh offense which was about 40 years ahead of everyone else in the league at the time. George Seifert consistently put a Top 3 defense on the field for the entire decade of the 1980's into the 1990's. I think Mahomes would have done extremely well in those circumstances. Probably would have won more than the 4 rings Montana did if you handed Patrick the exact same coaches/roster and competition of the 1980's NFL. No salary cap to kill the team, etc. |

Jones is one of 3 left from the 1st SB. He's earned the right to hit FA. No way we can pay him and Sneed what they want.

You have to remember these guys are the elite of the elite. You don't get to the mountain Mahomes, Brady, and Montana have reached by not being amazing at what they do. Quote:
It will be interesting to see what happens though. Last edited by PAChiefsGuy; 02-17-2024 at 07:21 AM.. |

We didn’t have a WR the caliber of Hill when he left, that is correct. But we had Mahomes. We have no Mahomes caliber player of defense to offset a loss of Jones.
