No Stanley.  No mads.

Minter was coy; several players dealing with illness and injury, but all are in the building.

I heard his audio.  It sounded like cya.

[tsylvester]

Typical coach speak, showing he has the player's backs

[papasmurfbell]

Always heard the same bs out of harbs.  A sounds like short term thing takes a month and a half.

I'm not concerned. At this point. While some didn't practice, everybody showed up and was there.

Well, it took time to learn Harbs was not truthful, I will give Minter the same

Good night Irene! $500 mil!?!

The Chiefs are adding two years to Patrick Mahomes' contract in a reworked contract that ties him to Kansas City through 2033 at a value of $504.75 million, sources told ESPN, a value that makes it the first NFL deal valued at over half a billion dollars.

Equity Sports CEO Chris Cabott and Chiefs general manager Brett Veach and his staff put the finishing touches on the landmark agreement Wednesday.

The new money on the deal is worth $239.05 million, with the total value now at $504.75 million from 2026 through 2033, with the first four years being guaranteed at signing. All $504.75 million becomes guaranteed through contract mechanisms

Hmmm...I think we have now reached the point of insanity. There are no NFL players worth anywhere near that especially given the risk of injury that exists.

[tsylvester]

Worst part is, Lamar is do for an extension.........granted, Mahomes has win a few super bowls

 

Oh, while Mahomes's cap hit is relatively easy this coming season, it

Thanks to a massive 2026 salary conversion and restructure, his immediate cap hit for 2026 is $34.65 million, while his 2027 cap hit will exceed $85 million.

2027 Cap Number: Projected to jump to $85.25+ million as a result of the front-loaded bonus proration.Extension Value: The new years add $504.75 million in total value to the contract, with an average annual value (AAV) exceeding $64 million beginning in 2027.

I expect Lamar has a subpar season like last yr.   At that point the team extricates themselves from him.
