Im sorry, but are you comparing an organization ignoring their history of being burned and just throwing big contracts out and hoping it doesnt blow up in their face to Andy Reid telling the best ****ing qb on the planet its okay to keep throwing?

Again, the level of fail here is staggering.

One is a coin flip. Its either gonna work, or it isnt.

Putting the football in Patrick Mahomes hands and removing his leash is hardly gambling bro. Thats the ****ing safe play.

Oh Andy Reid, that gambler! Putting the ball in Mahomes hands with the biggest game on the line! What coach has the guts to do that?!!

I want to resign Jones but would give him 19M per season. Maybe just maybe 20M.

No to anything more than that. And yes to a trade if he plays hardball.

We should have learned our lesson with Berry and Houston. There is no point to handing out those massive deals and end up having to throw away those players because their play unsurprisingly take a dip.

Give Jones a reasonable deal and at least you can somewhat manage if his play falls off a bit which is very possible.

John Randle, and the dude was only 6'1 245lbs. Guy was a ****ing beast. 137.5 sacks playing DT. 9 of 14 seasons double digit sack totals, half sack away from being 10 out of 14. Trash talk second to none. Eyeblack second to none.

Circa '99-'00 Warren Sapp was pretty God damn terrifying also.


Im sure there are others, but Randle and Sapp immediately come to mind when you talk qb killing DTs.

Reggie White played and rotated to RDE ,DT, and LDE positions on the line for the Packers when he was called upon to do so

Give it up. No chance he will play here unless he signs the tag. Even if he does probably traded. We need more picks with only 5.

Are you going to add anything of substance or are you just going to keep repeating the same thing over and over.

Really? How so?

Awww, who's a cute little noob? You are! Yes you are...:D

He's been posting almost that same exact thing all over this thread. Multiple times a day.

Ah. This one has yet to partake of the delicious antifreeze while perishing atop the burning AIDS tree before being pulled down with nuthooks.

Letter and lot of numbers guy, this will end badly for you.

No.

You take calculated risks. But no one on here wants to do... you know... the calculating.

“Big,” “calculated,” we’re arguing semantics at this point. The point is that you have to roll the dice sometimes.

Funny how everybody talks about Houston and Berry, but what about guys like Clark and Mathieu? Yea they weren’t Chiefs before, but they’re still guys you gave a 2nd contract to. There’s no difference.

Yes you do have to roll the dice and to decrease the chances of a bad contract you have to calculate the risks. You do that by taking these factors into account;

Age - is the player at the end of his prime?

Chris Jones is just now getting into his prime. This was the first year where he looked like an absolute stud and took games over. He's just gonna get better and you don't just get rid of that type of game changing ability

Injury history - Football is extremely physical and most players get hurt and miss games, but has the player missed multiple games every season and constantly has nagging injuries that keep him at less than 100% when he actually does play?

This was the first year CJ has had injury problems. He has been very healthy his whole career and isnt constantly on the injury report.

Loves the game - Does the player love to play football or is he just looking for his big pay day?

Chris Jones is very vocal about his love of the game and is constantly trying to get better.

Does the player want to be here? Does he love the city, fans, and most importantly loves his teammates?

This is another thing that Jones has been very vocal about. He loves everything about Kansas City and the Chiefs.

So if someonw wants to spew off about calculating the risk and how Chris Jones is a risky signing Id love to see their reasons why. This whole Berry and Houston got hurt bullshit isnt a reason. Give me a legit reason that signing him long term would br bad. Give me some of the negatives when calculating the risk. The money isnt a reason either because you can keep his cap bit low until the cap is crazy high.

People will say Clark and Mathiue can still get hurt. That douche bag wallcrawler was one of those idiots.
