We can bite the bullet on some of those deals. We can trade some guys, we can cut some guys, we can restructure others and we can make it work.
The first thing is accepting that the bad contracts are actually bad contracts.
The cap is way too pliable for me to believe we are stuck anymore.
You pay Dak, and he has to carry you. Almost by himself.
You can say goodbye to Cooper, Gallup, and any hope of building a serious defense. Name a highly paid quarterback that has a great defense. Those teams get picked apart because they can't pay their guys when they come due.
Neither team in the Super Bowl had a high-paid quarterback. And the Chiefs had better win another now because they're about to get picked apart. Can Mahomes do it without Kelce, Hill, Jones, and Matthieu? Because he'll have to soon.
Brady understands this, but he has a wife that makes more than him in a month than he does in a year.
