But it’s over. He is not a serious threat any longer and he’s not getting back to his old self; once you go physically soft as a player- you don’t get hard again. I hope he makes the right decision and hangs it up.

Pruning helps trees grow, and his retirement will hurt in the short term- but will force the offense to develop new plays and players, and broaden Mahomes’ vision.

Yep, dude is simply not worth the cap hit anymore. He's not inspiring anyone either, that much is clear.

If he doesn't hang it up, the Chiefs need to add some void years to his deal and just be willing to kick the can down the road to lower his cap hit, because you're not winning shit with him taking up ~$20 million of your cap for 5 catches and 35 yards a game.

I personally would like to thank him for the many many years of being awesome, but I agree that at this point he has a tough decision to make. I support him either way, but if he stays "for the love of the game" I pray he loves the game enough to restructure his contract to allow for the team to fix all the things that made last night what it was.

Dream scenario: Taylor pays millions to pay for anti aging treatments for her boyfriend. Stem cells, cyborg implants etc. He plays for three more years and we get the three peat.

Sorry I meant to thumbs up

Jared Allen and Travis would have make a great dynamic duo had their paths intercepted.

Travis has been domesticated and it's not hard to see to an observing eye.

He was underpaid for a long time which helped Veach spend more on other areas of the roster. I'm cool with him coming back one more year and getting the $20 million even if he be more of a role player.
