Yes. Personally I hope Staley and Telesco get lifetime contracts.

Bias aside, it's time to clean house.

Basically if Telesco survives past this season, we all know the Chargers aren't serious about trying to win. Tom Telesco can't draft, manage free agency, or hire coaches worth a poo poo.

Even if they do shitcan him, the Chiefs have nothing to worry about for a long time because the fundamental difference between the two teams is that the Chiefs like winning and actually do all the work they can to ensure they keep doing things that contribute to them winning.

You know what, I’m going all-in on the Broncos taking the division just because it’s hilarious and proves this whole loving division is cursed.

Ek is absolutely gone. I don't see any way he's back after this year.

Keenan has to be back. Mike and Mack and Joey, who loving knows.

Keenan Allen absolutely should be retiring a Charger. And I just realized Mike Williams is already 29. What the poo poo, I feel like they just drafted him.

Anyways, Mike, Mack and Bosa feel like they're all out the door and not because they're bad, Telesco just hosed the team's cap for too many good players and this somehow was the result. Between this poo poo and there being loving zero depth behind starters, this next year is gonna be a hard one to handle. But with a franchise QB and at least a few pieces, it's not totally hosed like the Lions were or the Saints constantly are.

I guess be prepared to crow in 2024 then? Because it's gonna take a year to dig out of the hole Staley and Telesco left.

I wouldn't say it's a foregone conclusion. Yes, the hole is pretty fuckin deep and the team's going to be losing some star players, but coming out of the college ranks, Harbaugh and whoever he brings with him are gonna know a lot of players going into this draft. There's a real shot they just nail this coming draft and go from there.

Wait.

Is this hope I'm feeling? gently caress, I think I'm already high on it. Take my keys please.

How about Zay flowers pushing Sneed down and spinning the ball in his face….why was he crying on the bench like 2 min later.. what happened?

Fumbled the ball out of the endzone for a KC touchback then he hosed up his hand punching the bench after all that.

Being a chiefs fan is fun as hell. This team just brings it in the playoffs, Kelce came to play. 2 weeks for injuries to heal up in…another Super Bowl hell yeah.

so this is what only being 7 years into the thousand years of darkness and torment is like. So which one of us is going to break our brains first and hire Adam Gase?

With that contract.

The return isn't bad. But I am emotional right now.

Yeah. That stung harder than I expected. But none of this would’ve been necessary if Telesco and his band of idiots hadn’t hosed things up this bad.

fans who've dealt with a more typical bad GM experience thinking that someone who's sat through the Al Davis twilight years and the Mayock/Gruden run are gonna be fazed by only the low end of the draft sucking is a funny one

outside of the brief blip of Reggie McKenzie, I don't even know what it's like for your team to understand what the first round of the draft is

Telesco is just barely good enough to keep his job for several years. Maybe mediocrity is a step up, but when every year it feels like the Raiders are a dark horse to make the playoffs and always fall far short of their potential, it's a ride that you'll be happy to get off of once it's reached its final obvious conclusion. The only real difference between Telesco on the Chargers and Telesco on the Raiders is that he didn't get to choose his own head coach this time. If that makes all the difference, congrats, have hope. But as of right now, Telesco remains a fraud until proven otherwise.

5 (or 6) elite players chosen in almost 20 years of the NFL draft out of 145 (!!!) selections is absolutely abysmal and anyone presented with this should understand why most of us are okay with Telesco usually nailing the top picks but making GBS threads himself the rest of the draft.

So this is what Kadarius Toney looks like spread out over 15 years. Yeah, Telesco's a step up from all this, and that might be the most damning thing about this whole situation.

Ross' way too early AFC West predictions:

Chiefs 12-5
Broncos 7-10
Chargers 7-10
Raiders 6-11

Last season really messed with us bad, because I can’t even get going on the false hope hype train this time around despite all the cool poo poo happening. Goddamn, gently caress Staley and gently caress you, Spanos.
