Thanks for the link. His comments sound a touch on the bitter side, but I can’t really blame him. One thing you have to say is that feeling that way the way he is playing this season shows his professionalism. He’s put aside his upset with what he’s pretty sure will happen to him and he is playing far and away the best game of his career.

YUP! Me too. It’s a very complicated situation. You’ve got Alex playing GREAT. Mahomes waiting in the wings. Dorsey has cap cash and oodles of picks, but Dorsey is probably pished at us. And every team knows we are short on cap cash so teams that normally would want to trade for Alex are going to be VERY TEMPTED to wait and see if we just cut Alex. After all, why give up picks to get him with a $20.6 million cap hit if you think you can get him without giving any picks? VERY COMPLICATED. Here is something else to throw into the equation….I suspect Dorsey will want a new Head Coach for the Browns and I suspect the owner does too. And Nagy has been doing GREAT calling the plays. It doesn’t take a huge amount of imagination to see both Nagy and Smith going to Cleveland. Nor does it take a huge amount of imagination to see Dorsey using the #1 overall pick in the draft to get a hotshot QB but still wanting an accomplished veteran QB to be a “place-holder” for a year or two while they groom the QB they picked.

All in all it’s a MESS.

The reason why I didn’t mention Nagy, is mainly because Childress has a history with Cleveland. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Nagy get some phone calls given the success that Pederson is having in Philly, though.

MERRY CHRISTMAS CHIEFS FANS! Which one of Santa’s gifts do you want to open first? One contains back to back AFC West Championships. Another has 3 players each with over 1,000 yards from scrimmage. Yet another has a QB with over 4,000 yards passing, almost 400 yards rushing, 26 TDs and only 5 INTs and a QB rating of 104.7. There is even a gift with a cheaper than dirt kicker who is 36/40 on field goals including 4 from 50+ yards and a 90% success rate. Oh…and over there in the corner I see a gift that contains a cornerback with 5 picks and 4 forced fumbles. Have fun opening them. We must all have been very good boys because Santa has been very good to us.

I like the Christmas tree scenario. Well done CT. I really thought we were smoked a few weeks back. But we found a way to pull it together. Let’s just hope we’re not one & done.
