I think their HC is a choker in the Andy Reid vein prior to Mahomes and Kelce. And I think he’s on the verge of losing the team and the fan base if he doesn’t get it done now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bostonlager 2,635 Posted August 28, 2023 Similar to the Phillip Rivers Chargers era. Playoffs every year, a deep run or two, but nothing more. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC, Cincinnati, San Diego, Jets, could all be elite. The Patriots still have Belichick. Kenny Pickett might be the real deal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point I think their best chance has passed them by, Yes like other posters mentioned they will always have a chance with Allen but think it gets harder for them now.

IGotWorms 3,759 Posted August 29, 2023 They need their offense to be more than Josh Allen and Stefan Diggs. Not that those two aren’t great, but they lack that third and fourth weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLCKAA 459 Posted August 29, 2023 They should definitely trade for an injured RB who wants to be the highest paid in the league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was dealing with a nagging injury all year so maybe that had something to do with it. We shall see. I'm excited to see how they fit Kincaid into the offense. Dude is never gonna be Kelce but if he could resemble something close to him the offense could be lethal. This is all predicated on the o-line doing their job this year which is a major, major question mark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
listen2me 23 1,670 Posted August 29, 2023 I think Beane is a solid GM but gets overrated by the fanbase. Took Ed Oliver at like 9 and first DT off the board. Later in the first you had Jeff Simmons Christian Wilkins and Dex Lawrence. All much better than Oliver. Oliver to me is just a guy and they decided to pay him recently. Elam the corner they picked in the first last year is having a hard time earning the 2 spot over guys like Duke Johnson or Benford. I see no reason why their window is closing at the moment. Allen is still Allen and if anything he is maturing and learning how to win games and manage games. People saw them take Kincaid and wonder why they would take a TE. But he is basically going to be their slot reciever. Really interesting pick there, looks safe to be at least good. Their defense is consistently one of the top units in the league. They play good team defense even if they choked in thr 13 seconds with the Chiefs. They actually added to the defense in my opinion with Poona Ford and Leonard Floyd. Getting Hyde and Von back is basically like picking up FAs compared to last seasons injuries. Edmunds who went to the Bears is wildly overrated in my opinion. Added guys like Damian Harris and Lat Murray. Added a guy like Trent Sherfield from Miami. They have a better roster than last year. Oline would always be my concern with them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
