Our window will always be open with mahomes. But the window will never be as wide open as when you also have two GOATs in Reid and Kelce. There's no guarantee it'll be nearly as easy then as it is now.
Kelce could play for a while. But it's an inevitability that age will catch up to him sometime. Maybe not all at once but gradual. It doesn't help that without WR help we continue to demand heavy usage from him. We need WRs to step up so we can demand less from him and also because with every regression, the WR room needs to get that much better. We are also making a big assumption that Reid is here 5 years from now. I hope these guys are here forever but it's just a reality check.
The point isn't that we have to go all buffalo bills and desperately throw money at guys for a run before the window closes.
