Wilson has won one playoff game in the last 5 seasons...and their QB was knocked out in the first quarter.
Your ceiling is something similar to the Raiders last year...maybe sneak into the playoffs in the final week...then lose. Keep pretending Wilson is some force in the post-season...he hasnt done shit in a long time.
Remember when you guys signed Keesum...and I tried to tell you he is what he is...and you all were starry eyed with visions of just needing a QB? He ended up being exactly what he already was... Wilson needs a quality team to succeed beyond a WC birth....he's a still a good QB but was a good QB in Seattle...a new logo on his helmet isnt going to transport him back to 2013. [Reply]

Not the locker room douche? Wilson made it known he wanted out for two years and demanded a trade. And he publicly bitched and moaned about his offensive line, even though he’s at least as responsible for getting sacked a lot.
He’s a little douche. Mahomes would never do that. [Reply]

Well...he's going to LOVE playing behind the Donks line. They have got the starting QB hurt every year going back to Manning...who is their RT again? I'm not even sure they know... [Reply]

If they miss the post-season...do they sign off on $50 million a year deal? He'll be 35 before they get their draft back...and so expensive by that point, their FA hands will be tied. Losing the players/draft capital was a killer...coupled with his financial hit. They are stagnant...
I dont feel sorry for them...they had their chances for Herbert and Allen...hell, even Mahomes. They could have had Mac Jones...who took his team to the playoffs.
I just dont see a realistic path for them to become true contenders...Herbert, Burrow, Jackson, Mahomes, Allen...all with better rosters....who knows how the Watson scenario plays out....all of the NFL QB talent is in the AFC. [Reply]

Now imagine Russack Wilson playing with worse offensive weapons, a mediocre OL, with a first time HC who has never called plays before. Sounds like a recipe for disaster, and I love it!!

KC got a top 10ish player per PFF and a projected starter. No excuses needed.
What’s funny is that everyone but Denver fans can see that KC killed it across the board in this draft. Then again, your fanbase is consistently wrong. If you were predicting greatness for our draft, then we’d know that Veach blew it.
Denver took 3 pass rushers, and all but one (the project DT/DE taken in the 6th) outproduced Karlaftis in actual games. I think that in 5 years most Chiefs fans will be looking forward to replacing him.
I think that KC did have a good draft, but that's pretty easy when you trade your second best player for extra draft picks. [Reply]

15 straight incoming....
Donks had zero pro-bowlers last year...but according to our resident homer are littered with superstars.
Nothing about this deal really makes football sense other than the Donks franchise being on the market...having a name brand QB would help drive tickets sales and thus the asking the price. Not a good selling point to inform prospective buyers that you've lost to KC 13 straight times, fans are frustrated, have the 2nd longest active post-season drought, dont have a QB or HC...and the national media has all but forgotten about them.
This was a business move more than a football one...the past ownership wont be on the hook for Wilson...they'll walk away with their bags of cash. [Reply]

By “outproduced” you simply mean sacks, and it’s been explained over and over that this was the only season in which Karlaftis didn’t have a good sack total. Either way, he’s been extremely productive in terms of creating pressure throughout his young career.
Nik Bonnito is a one trick pony who will be 23 years old by the start of the season. Karlaftis just turned 21.
There’s a reason that not a single person had Bonnito over Karlaftis, but keep pretending that he’s better simply because he has more sacks. Just makes you look like a lazy dumbass homer. [Reply]
