@justanotherfan Exactly. Veach’s job is to acquire talent. Andy’s job is to make it work. I’m not sure that’s what is happening here though.
When Veach was hired the one thing I was worried about was that Andy would have too much of a say in personnel. It was his downfall in Philly. Andy wanted a yes man at the GM spot. I think he has one… And I think that explains quite a few of the decisions that have been made.
@CoreyBill He’s not an Arizona fan, it’s all good. There is a politics section if you want to vent though. I choose to completely ignore that thread as politics and religion are great ways to lose friends.
Montana, Green, and Smith were decent. It’s Bono, Cassel, Thigpen, Croyle, Huard, Palko, Orton, and the crap coaches that went with them (Crennel, Cunnigham, Edwards, Haley) that caused the dark ages. IMO

OK I’m wrong lets pay full price for a part time player. Better yet sign him to a new contract. Top dollar.
What do you not understand about:
It would cost more to cut him now than to keep him.
First AFC championship game in 25 years…I’ll try not to complain too much about the fix. Next year the Chiefs will just have to blow their doors off so a few plays don’t matter.
Well here to say Congradulations to KC Chiefs - - -yes I know - -that you know that KC is not my top Choice - -I live and die with the Packers - - and yes we sucked for sure this season. Yet hey I’m a true fan - -a true fan sticks with your team through good times and Bad.
Yet I still root for KC unless they are playing Green Bay. - -I think we all knew this from watching him for Tech - -Patrick is an absolute stud. - -Great job for KC Organization - - -Good for all KC fans , you are going to have a unbelievable QB for the next several seasons - -hope you all do well in the playoffs.
I think IF and again I’m saying IF - -there is anything at all to keep KC out of the Super bowl - -it will be your defense - - - Again before you maul me - -I said IF there was one thing that would keep you out lol
Oh one interesting side note – interesting : - -None of the top 6 paid QB’S in the league made the playoffs. - - Aaron 33.5 M - - - - - - Matt Ryan 30 M - - - - - Kirk Cousins 28 M - - - -Jimmy Garoppolo 27.5 M - - - -Matthew Stafford 27 M - - - & Derek Carr -25 M -crazy - -Good luck to ALL the KC fans - -you deserve it. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@justanotherfan
I’m almost positive after Benjamin refused to do a pre-game workout with his rookie QB one week was the final straw for him in Buffalo. I believe he was brought to Buffalo by someone who used to work in Carolina and was apart of the process that got Kelvin drafted in Carolina. I also believe that person was already fired in Buffalo which really left Kelvin on an island with the organization. He wasn’t motivated to be in Buffalo from the start however and some lingering knee issues have also kept him from being the player that he once was.
Motivation for Kelvin has always been an issue though. Jimbo Fisher had issues with him at FSU early in his career and it wasn’t until that breakout season with Winston did he realize his potential. Then he did the right thing going pro and capitalized on his momentum. Carolina was a good spot especially early then his ACL injury really messed with him. He lost his mom around that time and I think with Kelvin its been easy to fall off the wagon a bit. There was that one off-season he was criticized heavily for being out of shape. I hope KC can help him, he needs it or he might find himself out of the league
