Any team that goes 3-3 in that division, maybe even 2-4, has a chance at the playoffs.

If the rest of the AFC was a dumpster fire, maybe.  But it isn't.  The AFC is as loaded as it has ever been with super star talent on great teams.

To me, no move this offseason was more fascinating than this Tyreke trade. I can understand why KC did it, but I would have waited until next off season (even if it meant I got a little less in return). I don't know if this will make sense, but as good a player as Hill is, to me he's 1.5x better because he's on KC and playing with Mahomes. The Chiefs offense isn't perfect, but with Hill & Kelce on the field at the same time, it's such a difficult time to game plan against them.

The Chiefs got a haul, and would have had a very difficult decision next year on what to do with Hill (I'd have franchised him for one year). I don't think Hill will be as durable as say Adams long term, and once Hill starts to slow down, that'll be the beginning of the end.

If I'm in the AFC West, I'm ecstatic right now. The Chiefs could draft a very good WR in the first round, but that rookie probably won't fit like Hill did (at least immediately) in that offense.

I'm really curious if the Packers had conversations with the Jets/Dolphins on Adams. Really curious.


The bolded is likely why they traded him now versus next year.

They traded him now because he told the Chiefs he didn't want to play another game with them.

MVS to Chiefs - not a big surprise after losing Hill. They rely on speed with their WRs.

I think its both.  Players say stuff like that all the time.  Like Dish said, the Chiefs knew they had an interesting choice coming up.  If they didn't get a big haul like they did, or if they had a more concrete plan for next year (say 1 more year and then the franchise tag), it would have been brushed off and things carry on.  As it happens, it all worked out so thats why they traded him

Makes sense. Seattle is a last place team with almost a 0% chance for the Playoffs - they need draft picks to re-build. Metcalf may get them a 1st. I don't think Lockett will.

Hard to believe this will work out for the Dolphins. How often does brokering this much of the future for a single wideout work out? I'm prepared to say never.

Look at this list https://www.pro-football-reference.com/play-index/share.fcgi?id=JDI5G of every WR trade involving a 1st round pick since 2000. Were any of those 10 trades worth it for the team giving away that much? Maybe arguably Keyshawn, but I'd say not a single one. 

Are the Fish going to be the first? Hah. No-brainer for the Chiefs, on the other hand.

Article  by Silverstein today that Adams let them know he wanted a trade to LV right after the season ended and they did their best to achieve that

Another interesting thing in that article is apparently you can't sign and trade franchise players for other players, which I did not know. Helps contextualize the haul

NFL changes OT rule for the playoffs, ensuring that each team will get the ball on offense once. Rule stays the same as it had been for the regular season - TD wins the game, FG or less gives the other team a chance to tie or win.

I would have been fine had they not made the change because the defense has the right to make a stop, but I'm also fine with the change. At the very least, it will remove a ready-made excuse for teams that lose.

My guess is a lot of teams ,who win the coin toss in the Playoff OT, will elect to defend.

WOW.  That will be a change.  Hope it goes better than Bowles last go around.  He doesn’t have a roster excuse this time

Article with details on Arians thought process. Essentially he wanted to turn over a good team to Todd Bowles, giving him a better chance at success than with a crappy team that might have hired him at some point.

Obviously , Brady drove the process

The good news on this deal for The Bucs is they may now have a stronger position to sign The Honey Badger ( he is engaged to Bowles Step daughter )

Big Time signing for the Rams

5 years $50m for a 31 year old former All-Pro who hasn't been hurt a ton seems reasonable.  Let's see how it works out.

Panthers coach joins Flores’ lawsuit against the NFL alleging racial discrimination

https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article260202455.html?ac_cid=DM631287&ac_bid=-505163832

Steve Wilks, the Panthers’ secondary coach and defensive passing game coordinator, is joining Brian Flores’ lawsuit against the NFL alleging racial discrimination in its hiring practices.

Wilks alleges that the Arizona Cardinals discriminated against him when they fired him in 2018 after one season as head coach.

“Mr. Wilks was hired as a ‘bridge coach’ and was not given any meaningful chance to succeed,” the complaint states. “He was unfairly and discriminatorily fired after just one season.”

The Cardinals hired Wilks in 2018 after he spent a season as the Panthers’ defensive coordinator under Ron Rivera. The Cardinals finished the 2018 season 3-13, setting them up for the No. 1 pick in the draft.

Coaches are rarely fired after one season unless their lone seasons are mired with controversy, similar to Urban Meyer in Jacksonville. Wilks’ time wasn’t.

The lawsuit alleges that Cardinals general manager Steve Keim, who is white, made poor personnel decisions and was convicted for a DUI that offseason, yet was still given a contract extension, while Wilks was fired.

“Mr. Wilks was replaced by a white coach, Kliff Kingsbury, who had no prior NFL coaching experience and was coming off of multiple losing seasons as a Head Coach at Texas Tech,” the lawsuit states. “Mr. Kingsbury, armed with quarterback Kyler Murray, has been given a much longer leash than Mr. Wilks and, to his credit, has succeeded. That said, Mr. Wilks, given the same opportunity afforded to Mr. Kingsbury, surely would have succeeded as well.”

At the time Wilks was hired, the Cardinals didn’t have a franchise quarterback. Wilks alleges in the lawsuit that before the 2018 NFL draft, he urged Cardinals general manager Steve Keim to trade up to the seventh spot to draft quarterback Josh Allen, who is now considered one of the top quarterbacks in the league.
