They have very little choice but to leave their DBs out to dry. Spags will be aggressive. We know this. He has a quality record in big games also. So KC definitely has the experience on us.

Spags really got it done versus Pats twice. He was outgunned personnel wise to I’d say. I mean the undefeated Pats season…that was incredible job by him. But I just don’t see him sitting back. Be real hard for him. Just not his style or personality.

Frankly sitting back is the wise move for them on D. Just don’t give up big plays you’d think would be enough. Rely on the top O with Mahomes to get it done. Just don’t let the D cost you. So be interesting what happens. Spags nature is run blitz and attack to stop it in the backfield. Which can suffocate. If you find a hole through it means big plays though.

Siri, Steichen and Hurts have the challenge of reading Spags D. I have plenty of respect for him. I expect him to show one look, on third downs especially, and change out.

Whole O needs to read the same and adapt. They’ve been through it some. 17 games obviously. But think it’s a weakness they can utilize. Done well it can get any O. Key is if you catch the guys trying to recover back into their coverage. That guy faking blitz…but dropping…can he recognize that and expose that enough.

Guarantees are the biggest thing that matters. But it’s a rolling cap. How does the whole contract not matter? Sometimes I wonder if you just pick an opposite side from me just to argue. Guys make what the market dictates. So when you only take 4 mil the first year on the cap and like 6 the second year on the cap. But you paying a guy twenty mil average in this big contract….the money ….or piper has to be paid.

Ham.. the cap is an issue for 2023 because that's where it's a little tight.  You can't tag him, takes too much cap space before the league year starts when you have to be under. 

Btw...you aren't going to be able to pay 20 mil average with only 4 mil and 6 mil cap hits.   Try to give a 5 year 100 mil contract with those cap hits?  You can't do it..

The other thing....the heavy backload works in favor of the team... you keep missing this point.  Year 3 or 4 , you can redo the contract or cut the player. 

" But No Mas... etc"  my answer....2 SB appearances with all that dead money, horrible drafting... and only one year ( 2021)  where we didn't sign free agents.

Dallas method..great drafting,  use of tags ....etc.   then not only not being able to add free agents in forever ( not just 2021) but also having to unload good players that were under contract. 

Using the tag without putting a new contract in place before the actual cap hit of the tag is used....is bad business.  Brutal way to manage the cap.

I’m expecting him to be close to twenty mil a year average contract. So 13 on a tag is a deal. 7 mil less.

It's horrible deal.. you take the full 13 mil away from the cap ... you don't get him long term.   Then the price only goes up.  We should have learned from Dak situation where the tag killed Dallas cap.

Gotta remember AR is O. Spags is D. Our run/pass ratio is very heavy favoring run. Now things get skewed in games with big leads. But you’d have to think Spags has to overload against the run. Run blitzing action I expect.

I expected this all year.  I've noticed that our play calling and formations don't make it so easy to run blitz.

How about the players experience? Both CB's are rookies

That's where Hurts shines and what they can't stop if they play it that way

Interesting-KC fairly silent on the BS talk, SF are sore losers LOL

True story. Ran 9 pizza delivery shops - Dominos - back in the day when it was decent - haven't had it in decades. Was checking out one of my drivers who was in to Poison and such bands. He asked me if I knew this Paul McCartney guy used to play with a band called the Beatles.

Embarrassing. I did see Poison live. Lots of pyro and graffiti coming down

I don't give a crap what race or ethnicity someone is. 

Everyone wants equality and something like this is a foundation for equality. They are 2 exciting QB's. Nuff said. 

The way I see it: the two top QBs are playing each other for all the marbles. Winner should be MVP. Head to Head like the NFL pretty much rarely gets like this. Most likely SB MVP also. Usually the winning QB going to Disney.

But season MVP it should have just been announced: to close to call. Earn it on the biggest stage head to head. SB MVP is likely…but if somebody else earns that I’m not totally going to discard that.

We can talk some history after the season. I’ll give my two cents. Two much to dig into on our Super weekend though.

Yet after it's all said and done, I've yet to find an actual reason to start a war. To protect yourself yeah, but to initiate no. IF we could all move forward together, this world just might survive.

To help out the innocent. Everybody has a duty to stick up for others. A ruthless dictator doing unspeakable atrocities. You have to do something. You can’t just turn a blind eye.

I also believe we have plenty of reasons to rebel and start a war or uprising currently, really. Too many get caught up in the taking a side politic stuff. But the politicians aren’t running things. They are just the figure heads. Same guys running things no matter who’s in charge. Big pharmaceutical, oil, bankers, ….they funding both sides. Which party bucks against what the bankers say to do? None. Got forced into this fiat currency situation. First National Bank, Second National Bank? We fought that forever being forced down our throats. Then they(mostly the Rothschild family) did it to us. They just scare and manipulate until the common man believes they need the bs they selling. First day we started that we were in debt. How dumb is it to print your own money and owe for each dollar printed? We had the all the gold from the WW. Sent it back. Soon as they printed a dollar…we owed 1.05. No way possible out of that.

Yep ZERO wars under Trump LOL. Russia had a reason to invade Ukraine,there is always a reason. So you would have let Germany own Europe? No reason to start a war I guess. Be glad you're not speaking German, Verstahen? Now back to football

Russia had all the reason to have to take on Ukraine. We forced their hand. We welcomed all those ex Soviet block countries into NATO. Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia. Russia was getting cut off from Europe. Us talking to Ukraine about joining NATO forced their hand. Just like the Cuban Missile crisis. We got Turkey in NATO. Another barrier for Russia from the East. We put missiles in Turkey. Changed the game between us and Russia. All the sudden there wasn’t time and distance to see things coming so much. We had quick strike capability on them. Russia had to try and even things out.

I’m not on Russia side. But just pointing out the obvious if you look at both sides. Our government and media spin everything to make us look right. Just like how we say Russia, China….all the enemies….we paint their propaganda and manipulation as so terrible. We do the same stuff. Just better really.
