The 2021 was pretty good as well. No KC draft was better than 2022.

And it had to overcome Skyy Moore. That's how good the rest of the draft was.

He hasn't been that bad...lulz

the sneed hate is so overblown from the titans fans. i do not get what the **** the titans expected signing a lone cb1 to do when the rest of your team ****ing sucks ass

It honestly doesn't even matter what he does in that scheme. In this one, was perfect

I'm old enough to remember Chief Fan being "worried" about Jaylen Watson, as though he'd forgotten how to play corner.

It's more about the 3 and 4 guys. We got torched by some scrub named IYoshii. Shaheen caught a bomb. There's some holes back there

Or they’re scheming to stop the Chases and Higgins of the world and are fine with Iosivas beating them because bottom of the roster guys arent enough to win against the Chiefs.

I know it's fun to piss on the guy, but Cole on youtube isn't getting flamed by Chiefs fans hard enough for his idiocy this offseason.

All training camp and preseason it was, "SIGN A CORNER! TRADE FOR A CORNER! ALL OF OUR NON MCDUFFIE GUYS AREN'T GOOD ENOUGH!!! MOAR CORNERS!!!!!!" when Spags literally said it was just due to untimely offseason injuries back there and not having enough time playing together. Spags said they were behind, not incompetent, and Cole's solution was to add a player who probably wouldn't be any better and take just as long to gel with the rest of the secondary.

Kind of hilarious on the rare occasion that he delivers an actual opinion about the team's direction that he ends up looking like a stupid bald prick

I live in Nashville now so I see a lot of the Titans games. He's not what he was here. That's 100% for sure. He's not. And I love the dude, but he's been getting cooked a lot but the QB's have missed. I said this weeks ago.

AGain, glad we signed Jones and let Sneed get his bag. He was a beast when he was here but we're literally had NO drop off. If anything we're better.

it's a crazy concept to them that good players will play a lot better on good, well-coached teams.

Wharton playing out of his mind is a nice treat. Jones playing like a DPOY, Wharton getting home fast, and Karlaftis only 1 sack but a TON of heat on the QB. That helps.

Fans/talking heads are stupid and know a lot less than they think they do.

Every year, it's Veach didn't do this, he should have done that, blah, blah, blah...

and then we win the Super Bowl.

Rinse and repeat.

Oh 100%. Anytime you get the line we have the DB's will have an easier time, but I'm also saying that Sneed has also not played that well this year, esp compared to last year. Where Jones is playing at DPOY levels.

Just glad we got this one right.

It was an easy decision. I'd have preferred a way for both for one more year to gun for 3 titles but we're fine

Friendly reminder that the Titans now own the 4th overall pick, so as of today that is pick 68. Remember when people said that was basically a 4th rd pick? Yeah it’s basically a late 2nd

It’s only 4 picks after our 2nd rd pick LMAO

Turns out Burnt Peach is pretty decent at his job…..

He’s no George Paton!

In a draft that’s supposed to be barren outside the first 4 rounds.

Which means we'll either trade it to get ahead of Buffalo again, or we'll trade it to Buffalo to get the player they'll regret not taking.

"Candy Wrappers" Pee-Hole-EE would have done it different.

Sneed will be back for the fourpeat

If only we could have him and Todd Haley back.

Wonder what this was about

Until one thing goes wrong and then either a new thread about how much he sucks is made or an old one gets bumped.

At this point it's hard to argue that he is not the best GM in the NFL.

...and now we're dangerously thin at corner

The Titans now have the 2nd overall pick. Pick 66 for us. Only 2 picks after our 2nd rd pick.

Yeah it’s a late 2nd rd pick

And they gave us Deandre Hopkins for crumbs.

Amazing

But on the flipside, we're down 2 corners due to injury. Had the pick been in this previous draft, we'd have been able to derive some productivity from a player this season that could've made up for it.

That's why picks in future years are discounted in the calculus teams use.

FTFY

For those saying we should have kept Sneed…we were never going to pay Sneed $20+ million.

For those saying to trade him earlier…his market wasn’t that great. Teams sniffed around but didn’t truly make a real (fair) offer until the Titans did.

We got what we got. Watson getting hurt sucks but that’s football

There is no part of me that's complaining about the Sneed trade. But we don't need to exaggerate the compensation we got back.

It's definitely great that the Titans are terrible this year though. That's worked out beautifully.

We swapped Sneed for Hopkins and an early 3rd rounder.

Win.

Now we trade some dip to go with the chips we traded for Hopkins and get Sneed back, with the Titans footing the bill on his salary.

Mmmmm. Chips and dip are good to have while you watch real teams play football.

Can't trade for him. NFL rule.

More like early 3rd for late 4th or 5th.

poor Sneed

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GcM5lP9W...name=4096x4096

He regrets it

Given his tough upbringing, he probably has tons of family mouths to feed. He had to go for the bag.

We miss Sneed. Without Watson we're making Bo Nix look competent.

If want to stay he should have taken less money.

We’re fine without him. I’m like, not concerned at all lol.

Yes it was so awesome to see Faker and Bo lead potential game winning drives on this defense. Just really gives the warmth and fuzzies...

The whole team shat the bed at one point or another. McDuffie got cooked all day, which never happens. Sneed wouldn't have made a difference. It was just a bad game.

(Still won lol)

The defense gave up 14 points. A couple plays here and there can be highlighted as bad every single game but at the end of the day this defense is top 4 in points allowed.

If the offense could put the ball in the end zone when they get to the red zone it would go a long way to making things more comfortable. But Mahomes has been playing like ass all season for the most part. The guy is pacing for 22 TDs and 17 INTs and he's sailing wide open 15 yard TD passes into the first row.

If you look at that pass to Kelce it was that high , if Kelce jumps and extends he can get his hands on it . Sure he has played to his potential but and the Def didn’t shutout out everyone but most people in here are being a little over dramatic almost like they enjoy being miserable.

We've allowed in back to back games mediocre to poor QBs to go right down the field and almost put both games away at the end even with poor offensive weapons. That's a concern...but overall yes it's still a really good defense helped by an offense that goes on insanely long drives multiple times a game. The biggest problem with the offense is the 1 to 2 really easy TDs a game Pat is missing. I have Worthy at TEN TDs if he just completes the wide open throws he's thrown at him. That doesn't count the times he flat didn't se him open by 5 yards.

There was little drop off with Watson replacing Sneed. Unfortunately dude got hurt and that’s football. Any team losing their CB2 would be facing this problem.

Having Sneed wouldn’t change Sunday. McDuffie got torched for the first time as a Chief which was shocking.

I don’t expect that to happen very often.

Defense gives up 14 points and we are bitching about our secondary. We've won most of our games based on the strength of the Defense.

A few have pointed it out, but Pat's play this year has been a far bigger problem than anything the Defense has done. Now, part of that can be blamed that he's taking a lot of hits and I still think he's partially scarred by the Tampa super bowl.

Were not missing a highly paid corner, just a competent one. When you have Watson and Mcduffie playing the way they were there's no point in paying a 3rd guy. Especially when you have a roster that has several guys needing to get paid.

Right, if the secondary was that terrible surely they would have scored more points right?

If a defense averaged 14 points allowed per game that's probably going to be widely regarded as the best defense in the NFL

Don’t fault Sneed at all. This was his one chance to earn huge money.

Jaylen Watson may be the most underrated player on the chiefs. He was having a great year before the injury. I would try to extend him this offseason.

Yeah i don't understand it either. There were a few people I have had to.correct after the Denver game. They are doing what they are without sacks. Our pressure is abysmal without blitzing. That shit is impressive.

The real problem is tackles and Patrick needing to find his accuracy.

I’m still holding out hope that this guy will be back in January for the divisional game

That's encouraging. Still hesitant to think he can come back and pick up where he left off after a lower body break - I figure it will take a couple weeks to get the rust off and by then it's too late.

But to have that body on the roster alone is a big win for depth purposes.

Easy for most to say...Sneed wasn't a high draft pick.

He needed a bag. Can't fault him for that.

This trade ****ing sucked. Even before Watson went down Spags defense was getting absolutely gashed out of the slot and by TEs.

Chiefs defense against Slot targets this season (w/ league rank, per NextGenStats):

80/106, 883 yards, 8 TD-2 INT

.46 EPA/dropback (32nd)
65.1% success rate (32nd)
117 QB rating (32nd)

Should have just given up a bit more for lattimore.

Nazi Johnson looks like Phillip Gaines out there

Or just kept the elite CB we already had.

They chose Chris Jones over Sneed.

Defense wasn’t a problem until Watson got hurt. It sucks but that’s football

That's an idiotic assertion. You could've kept both instead of earmarking money for good/very good players like Danna, Bolton, and Smith.

Now we're stuck with a defense that's ****ing atrocious in critical situations.

Buccaneers drove for a TD and forced OT to close quarter 4.

Broncos drove for a game winning FG and special teams bailed them out.

Bills drove for a game sealing TD, twice.

Lol, no.

Ders gave up and 3rd and 4th for him.

Were really going to bump this every week now? Effin A.

You do realize Trent McDuffie is going to get paid a **** ton of money right?

He’s eligible this Spring and they are 100% paying him $20+ million APY.

They can’t pay 2 corners elite money at the same time. FFS

LMAO You absolutely can, especially the way Veach structures contracts. What in the ****?

McDuffie still has this year, his 5th year option, and a year or two of relatively low cap hits. Absolutely could've worked Sneed in and kept him.

McDuffie is currently slated to have a 12 million dollar cap hit in 2025 with the 5th year option.

So we've got 2024 on the last year of his rookie season, 2025 on the 5th year option, and whatever contract he signs for 2026 and beyond, which will almost assuredly have an incredibly low cap hit to start in at least 2026.

Turn off Madden dude. Mahomes, Kelce, Taylor, Creed, Thuney and Chris are about $186 million combined next year. That’s over 70% of the cap in just those players.

They have $23 million projected in cap space next year and Sneed’s cap hit is $24 million.

Good grief. Nobody would be saying anything if Watson didn’t get hurt. He was ****ing awesome before he got hurt. Very little drop off.

But continue bitching bc we paid Chris over Sneed

LMAO What a disingenuous little ****wit. As if Mahomes contract hasn't been designed all this time to convert the massive 2026 cap number into a signing bonus to spread it out.

Hell, Veach tried to sign Bolton and Smith in the off season, whose combined contract values would almost certainly exceed 30 million annually. But no, we can't afford Sneed because of reasons. We needed to pay an offball LB that's a liability in coverage and a very good G that is liable for a stinker or two per year.

The plan was working great until Watson got hurt, dude.

The trade was fine. Could have used a better draft pick, but whatever. We just ran into some bad luck

When one injury tanks the entire CB room, no, it wasn't a good plan.

I was one of the few that would have rather paid Sneed than Jones, but that was me thinking with my Heart and not my brain. Chris Jones' holdout stunt last year missing Game 1 and sitting with his douche agents was a real turnoff.


Regardless, I think Chris Jones hasn't really been impactful this season, and the less I hear of him, the more I want Sneed.

Well, Jaylen Watson stepped right in and we did not miss Sneed at all. Jones has been doubled, and nobody else can beat their man except for Karloftus every once in awhile.

Disagree. What team has 3 really good corners? I mean really. Dallas losing Diggs last year is all I can think of in a similar situation.

You could argue that the most missed departed defensive player from last year is Willie Gay, especially before the Watson injury.

The Chiefs LB's struggles to cover TE's, and struggling to stop Lamar and Josh Allen from scrambling (Gay was used a spy when the Chiefs played both QB's).

When half your team is injured you're gonna have problems.

You mean the same CB who……checks notes…….has played five games all season and did not play yesterday?

Been sitting out for a month with a quad the team hoped he'd already be back from. Gonna guess he's not as keen to play hurt there as he would've been here since they're the dregs of the league.
