For clarification, im not blaming the players. Its nobody's fault that they were injured. But dropping that much money on one player, is a gamble.
When you gamble, you are going to lose at one point or another.
Injuries are a major aspect of pro football. Its not a matter of IF you are going to be injured, its WHEN, and for HOW LONG.
If Veach is comfortable letting 200 million ride on two trench players, where violent contact is experienced every single play, then okay.
Its simply not a gamble that has paid off for the Chiefs.
Name any Chief (aside from Frank Clark who has played one season on his) given a monster contract that worked out, and was worth the money.
