My worry is that if Jones doesn't agree to Veach's offer, that Veach will still spend that money on another, albeit lesser, DT.

I HAVE POSTED UP IN THE DELI SECTION OF THE PRARIE VILLAGE HYVEE! DISGUISED AS A KUMQUAT. WILL REPORT ANY UNUSUAL CHRIS JONES-RELATED ACTIVITY.

We absolutely did not have the toughest schedule in football last year. We did have the projected toughest schedule, but it didn't materialize that way because Arizona, Denver, LA, and LV were all ass.

We drafted pass rushers the last two years in Karlaftis,RD1, Uzomah, RD 1 , and Thompson RD 5. Veach has his plan. He's one step ahead

Well plus we handed a lot of losses out to them.

While all you say is true, it's looking like the defense THIS year just may be leaps and bounds better than anything we've put on the field since Pat arrived.

I agree with all of that. I love our LBers and secondary. They both have a chance to be top-10 units. The only part of our defense I have any worries about is the DL, and a large part of that is Jones not getting a full training camp and Omenihu’s suspension.

I’m really excited to see our defense when we’re at full strength.

Well sure, in a small sample size our wins distort SoS, but I think we can all agree that those teams were significantly worse than expected and that was more than a third of our games.

While we are better with CJ than without I think Veachs next step in his plan is replacing CJ after this year. Betting he has his eye on a certain college player right now , plus a couple fA's coming up. He needs a better draft position than 32 so how does he get there

Jones is still an elite pass rusher at the DT position. He commands more attention on the DLine than anyone else on this team. How much longer can he do it? Not a clue, but that is not easy to replace, and it's even harder where the Chiefs draft.

We don't know, but this whole "If Jones doesn't sack Burrow on 3rd and 8 we don't win" is pure speculation and horseshit. Burrow had already thrown multiple picks and bad incompletions, and just converted a huge 3rd and 16 deep in his own territory.

FYP

Does anyone other than the Simply Red stooges find these posts funny?

No.
They've gotten ridiculously out of hand. It's to the point where it's 20% of the posts in some threads.
