Chiefs, Mahommes SB era done. Your salary cap advantage just ended.

[BURGH86STEEL]

I don't think the Chiefs run ended. It will become more difficult to add quality starters in free agency, possibly impact team depth, and keep certain players.

At the end of the day I'd rather have a QB like Mahommes that not.

I don’t their run has ended either but their mystique has.

Perhaps a blueprint as well to defense PM has been drawn.

So QBs in the meat of their contracts, don’t win Super Bowls?

Ones who tale up more than 13 percent on the salary cap dont...EVER.

Yup. Just go look at who the SB winning QB was the last 20-30 years. Mostly it’s a young QB on pre. If money contract. Only a handful of losers guys have won at the end of their careers - Brady, Manning, Elway.

You just can’t afford a good enough team around your QB when they hit big money.

Seriously, the data points to the fact that you should always be dumping guys before they become too expensive. Especially QBs cause of the contract sizes.

And the rules support throwing the ball making it easier for young QBs with a good arm and pocket mobility to be successful. Just gotta build the rest of the team and hope u hit on a great young QB.

But just look at how many of these guys are out there that are pretty good.

[Steel Maniac]

Chiefs got arrogant at the end of both halves. Just take the points. Reid spit the bit.

Exactly ………..

Fact check: True.

No QB since 2000 has won taking up >13% of the cap. Only ones to win at over 10% are Brady and both Mannings.

[Steel Maniac]

agreed all around.

and they might not win the SB, but I bet their in the final 4 / final 2 discussion in the near future. they know where their bread is buttered

I doubt they have that 70's mentality where they'll draft 9 of 12defensive guys in the top 60 in a 6 year span

They still be in the hunt . Truth be told, their draft selection of CEH was the crucial mistake. That pick should of been adding another legit Wr.

Factoring in injuries , they’ll hover around top 3 in the AFC because they have a great QB / head coach combination.

[hackjam]

What stud FAs got sniped from us ?

Faneca and Porter to name two, though they were before Ben’s big deal they knew it was coming. Plax, Chris Hope, Randle El, etc. also didn’t stick around.

Yep. First round RB is almost always a big mistake. Tee Higgins taken with the next pick.

This is a fact. The last QB to win that took up a lot of cap was Steve Young and that was the beginning of when the cap started.

But someone will break through I’m pretty sure; situations like injuries etc. etc. will allow it to happen.

[Steel Maniac]

The big salary cap hits of Mahommes contract are gonna kick in and the league gets to snipe their best free agents.

How much of the cap is Stafford taking up?

[whatever]

I wouldn’t consider hope, play and randel el big money studs.
I’ll have to look them up

[Steel Maniac]

How much of the cap is Stafford taking up?

I found it 10.9%
