Good morning AG!
Today in Chiefs’ history … I got nothin’
In other history, in 1977 the worst air crash in history occurs in Tenerife, Spain and 583 people died when two Boeing 747 aircraft collided on the runway; and in 1871 England and Scotland compete in the first international rugby match … born on this date were Mariah Carey (1970), Quentin Tarantino (1963) and Sarah Vaughan (1924)

Mahomes trivia for #ChiefsKingdom :
-Who are the only 2 NFL teams with a winning record against Mahomes (Regular+Post)?
-Who are the 4 teams with a .500 record against Mahomes?
-Who are the two teams Mahomes has not beaten?
As for where this goes next, I'd say the price will dictate that. Under current circumstances, unlikely KC or Buffalo go get him. If his price drops (both teams offered incentive-heavy deals), then ... maybe.
(Both KC and Buffalo talked directly to Hopkins, and liked him.)
🏈 More on @DeAndreHopkins 🏈
• The Chiefs and Bills were the only teams to have substantive trade talks with Arizona.
• As was the case with Kansas City, contract was the issue for Buffalo.
• KC made progress, but @OBJ's deal ($15M base) more or less blew that progress up.

Thank you
28 year old woman. Besides the weapons used, doesn’t fit the typical profile. (Sadly there is a typical profile)
Lukas Van Ness – Iowa
Measurables: 6-foot-5, 272 pounds
Snapshot: Van Ness racked up 46 pressures, 11 tackles-for-loss and 6.5 sacks in 13 games for the Hawkeyes last season. He then followed up that strong season with a tremendous performance at the NFL Scouting Combine, running the 40-yard dash in 4.58 seconds (at 272 pounds).
Pro Football Focus: “Lukas Van Ness is as strong as they come in terms of pass-rushing ability. Known for his power rush, he was able to generate 46 pressures and nine sacks this past season for the Hawkeyes. He is one of the reasons Iowa had such a dominant defense. Van Ness is also better against the run than most defensive ends in his class, finishing with an 80.9 run-defense grade in 2022. If he can continue to improve his pass-rushing moves, look out for him at the next level.”
Myles Murphy – Clemson
Measurables: 6-foot-5, 268 pounds
Snapshot: Murphy tallied 11 tackles-for-loss and 6.5 sacks in 11 games for the Tigers last season. He recorded 76 pressures over the last two years.
Pro Football Focus: “Murphy is an absolute freak athlete. He has been highly touted ever since high school simply because of his raw physical tools. You will hear a lot of comparisons to Travon Walker for Murphy throughout this draft season. He has that same type of strength and speed combination that NFL teams look for in an edge defender. Murphy definitely has work to do in developing his pass-rushing moves, but he clearly possesses the athletic ability to do it. He recorded 96 total pressures and 20 sacks in his Clemson career.”
sounds like a BVeach sort of pick
Felix Anudike-Uzomah – Kansas State
Measurables: 6-foot-3, 255 pounds
Snapshot: A Kansas City native, Anudike-Uzomah attended Lee’s Summit High School before going on to star for the Wildcats. He was the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year in 2022 after leading K-State with 11 tackles-for-loss and 8.5 sacks.
Pro Football Focus: “Anudike-Uzomah was one of the best edge defenders in the country over the past two seasons. He finished 2021 with 13 sacks and 52 total tackles to go along with a 20.7% pass-rush win rate, which earned him an 89.9 grade in that area. Those numbers dipped a little in 2022, but he still generated 46 total pressures and made 34 solo tackles. Anudike-Uzomah has excellent physical traits for a defensive end and is just 21 years old with a lot of room to grow.”
Defense is going to take a big step forward this year.. love watching a good defense play ball…
Big step! Wonder who we draft
Not sure , can’t wait to see tho…
Spring is right around the corner which means the Draft is only 31 days away
I see the “You can’t call that foul then!” crowd has moved on to the NCAA tourney. Didn’t see it, don’t follow B-ball enough to know if that was a foul or not, but the continued logic that fouls late aren’t the same as fouls early is still laughable.
looks like he tried the ‘ol hidden hand push in the back trick…
Pushed him with his lower hand in the back while shooting. That’s a foul. Maybe we should let them whack each other in the nuts while shooting?
you can always tell when that happens – they come up short
Of course not! Only in the last 30 sec of the game. Then, it’s…. ROLLERBALL
That’s a foul. Great call to see it
“WORLD CHAMPIONS”
I’ll grab a cup … ( If She’ll Let Me … ; )
