NFL Draft - 2023 • Oct 21, 2023 12:49 PM

Coburn, 6th round selection from TX, was waived but picked up by Broncos. Chiefs gambled on that he will clear waivers.

It is disappointing as Chiefs lost on a young player they were hoping to develop.

Chiefs signings • Oct 18, 2023 11:10 PM

It’s not costly with minimal cap hit

I like the move, he knows the system and can provide deep threat.

KU is #1 • Oct 18, 2023 05:25 PM

@BeddieKU23

I had to dig deeper and came to realization that unconsciously I have not thought much about this season as of yet due to other factors such as tragic circumstances around the world.

Hopefully my interest will increase when games actually begin.

Chiefs season long game thread • Oct 14, 2023 07:09 PM

@dylans Some strange play calls from Reid, trying to be too cute.

Chiefs season long game thread • Oct 13, 2023 08:20 PM

@COHawk Broncos is much better than their record. They have solid players. The issue is that they are learning a new system. Wilson is playing much better this year.

Chiefs season long game thread • Oct 13, 2023 12:57 PM

Growing pains.

They are sending a lot of deep coverages and WRs are struggling to get open.

D has been exceptional.

Chiefs signings • Oct 10, 2023 08:29 PM

As long as price is good, 7th rnd pick as an example.

NFL Season - 2023 • Oct 09, 2023 10:51 PM

MVS needs to step up for deep balls.

Jayhawks in the pros • Oct 09, 2023 08:06 PM

Thanks for compiling.

Svi is with Celtics.

NFL Season - 2023 • Oct 09, 2023 03:50 PM

How much impact is caused by new O coordinator

Reid is still calling shots and Nagy has been around but the style is very different than EB.

Are players taking time to adjust

NFL Season - 2023 • Oct 09, 2023 12:33 PM

Chiefs D is playing better than O.

Hopefully O can figure things out as season goes along.

How about niners smacking C Boys.

49ers/Chiefs: would you rather • Oct 08, 2023 11:54 PM

Are off field events affecting Chiefs football

NFL Season - 2023 • Oct 02, 2023 11:20 PM

Jets D is legit

Their scheme was excellent to slow down PM

Mahomes made couple of bad decisions, should have thrown it away, he gets greedy at times.

I concur that Chiefs don’t have an alpha receiver but I still believe they can be really good with experience and if they avoid costly mistakes.

@rockchalkjayhawk Self will start KJ at 4, I'd move Kevin to 3 and KJ to 4.

Timerlake coming from bench.

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 30, 2023 01:09 PM

Wow, Witt Jr made history, first Royal to hit 30 HRs and steal 30 bases.

What a talented player, hope Royals can keep him in KC.

Jayhawks in the pros • Sep 28, 2023 12:07 PM

Boy I cannot recall much about him as a Jayhawk...

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 27, 2023 07:47 PM

@bskeet Many analysts have been praising him and his talent.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 26, 2023 08:57 PM

All over national media news

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 25, 2023 08:52 PM

@kjayhawks He is extremely dangerous outside of pocket. He can run and has extraordinary arm. He is not your typical pocket passer. If used properly he can become a top notch QB.

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 25, 2023 12:44 PM

@Kcmatt7 I saw below from an article on Royals infielders and wanted to run by you, this is on Garcia

Garcia tops American League third basemen with 12 OAA at the position -- he has 14 OAA total this year adding in the innings he’s played shortstop -- well ahead of the Mariners’ Eugenio Suárez (9). With Garcia, Alguacil’s main concern was his comfort level, considering it was a position Garcia had never played before. Early on, Garcia played toward the foul line and farther back in the dirt to take advantage of his tools as a shortstop.

Recently, Garcia has started to play more towards the hole, where he can take advantage of his 8 OAA mark, going to his left side to take away hits, which leads all third basemen. The angle is different, and the throw is longer to first base, but Garcia’s max-effort arm strength is 88.3 mph, which ranks seventh among players with 100 or more throws at third.

“When I first started playing third base I [committed] a lot of errors because I didn’t move my feet and the ball was coming too hard at me,” Garcia said. “I know guys hit harder here than in the Minor Leagues, so I learned to wait for the ball, not come in.”

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 25, 2023 12:15 PM

Farmer
I think coaches need to come with plays to use Fields strengths, make him get out of pocket more.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 24, 2023 11:30 PM

@Texas-Hawk-10 Texans got a big win against Jags

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 24, 2023 11:28 PM

Didn’t realize Cairo Santos is still in NFL, Bears kicker.

Cowboys lost to Cardinals, huge upset, trap game for the Boys

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 24, 2023 10:12 PM

Khalil Herbert is with Bears

I wish him well except for today

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 24, 2023 09:11 PM

After bad play throughout the season, Royals always end the season on a high note with a winning record in September, only raising hopes for the following season.

Then they tank and cycle continues.

They swept mighty Astros on their home turf who are fighting for first place finish of their own.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 24, 2023 07:33 PM

Cowboys and Niners looking legit this year.

Any cowboys fans on this board.

Broncos getting smoked by Dolphins today.

BYU game • Sep 24, 2023 07:30 PM

KU ranked #24 in AP poll, great movement.

2023 Season Predictions • Sep 24, 2023 07:29 PM

It will be awesome to go 2-2 in next 4 games, get bowl eligibility.

A few of my favorite things • Sep 24, 2023 07:27 PM

Scenic drives especially in Fall season

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 22, 2023 08:01 PM

@Kcmatt7 Nice summary. I concur.

It is so disappointing to see how Royals 2018 college pitching draft overhaul has worked out.

There was so much hope that couple of guys from the likes of Singer, Kowar, Lynch, Bubic etc would become quality MLP pitchers. It is frustrating to see how Singer has regressed this year.

Royals will need to spend money this offseason on pitching to be competitive.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 21, 2023 08:18 PM

@MR11 I think it is best to go after freshmen in 40-100 ranking range as they will be more patient to learn and develop.

Higher ranking kids are looking for instant gratification, which is totally acceptable for their viewpoint but difficult to achieve at KU under Bill Self unless you are in Joel/Wiggins/Rush category.

BYU game • Sep 21, 2023 03:43 PM

@MoonwalkMafia I admire your confidence

2024 Recruiting • Sep 21, 2023 12:18 PM

Portal is the best recruiting tool now.

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 21, 2023 12:17 PM

Vasquez has been another nice trade get for Royals; in small sample size he has already hit 12 HRs

BYU game • Sep 21, 2023 12:15 PM

KU 8.5 pt favorite which tells us something, may come down.

Chiefs signings • Sep 21, 2023 12:14 PM

Bears D coordinator resigned citing personal health issues, wish him recovery.

Chiefs signings • Sep 19, 2023 10:32 PM

Bears were supposed to contend, folks are high on Fields.

I don't think Reid will sit Kelce. Without him Offense looks non-cohesive, perhaps limit his snap count or rest him on 4th quarter assuming game is in the bag.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 18, 2023 12:34 PM

Data from another article:

Chiefs D for first two games under Spags:

First 4 Seasons:

23.25 points per game allowed
399.4 yards per game allowed
136.6 rushing yards per game allowed (5.1 YPC)
40% third down conversions allowed

Now here is what the Chiefs have allowed through two games this season.
15.0 points per game allowed
319.5 yards per game allowed
82.0 rushing yards per game allowed (4.0 YPC)
29.6% third down conversions allowed

What are girls doing in a mens dorm? • Sep 17, 2023 10:56 PM

Boys bring in girlfriends and other friends.

It will be difficult to enforce this policy, many players will be extremely unhappy.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 17, 2023 10:38 PM

Shout out to D for showing up Big.

Thankful for seeing Jones back in action.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 17, 2023 10:18 PM

I’ll take this ugly W.

But they better start taking care of the damn football.

@rockchalkjayhawk Below is article from June 20th:

Head coach Bill Self announced Tuesday afternoon that Zach Clemence, a 6-foot-10 incoming junior forward who averaged 1.8 points and 1.6 rebounds per game in sparse playing time over two seasons, is returning to Kansas rather than transferring to UC Santa Barbara.

“I had a conversation last week with Zach,” Self said. “He contacted me and we were discussing all things going on with him, future, transferring, all the stuff, and he asked me would it be a possibility if he could return, and we discussed what we both thought would be best for his future basketball-wise.”

Self and Clemence decided that he will redshirt during the upcoming season. Self said that Clemence could have been eligible to play immediately because he never officially started classes or practices in Santa Barbara. UCSB, following questions Monday from the Journal-World about Clemence’s enrollment status, deleted an Instagram post from May 23 stating that Clemence had officially signed.

@rockchalkjayhawk I heard that Zach is red shirting.

2023 MLB Season - Royals • Sep 13, 2023 12:39 PM

@wissox wild game last night

Vaughn is a good hitter

Chiefs signings • Sep 13, 2023 12:16 PM

@kjayhawks I have a feeling that CJ got bad advice from his agents
I don’t have verified information but based on chain of events I can’t think of other reason for this messed up situation.

Chiefs signings • Sep 11, 2023 09:18 PM

Just read that Jones has signed one year deal with Chiefs, terms were not shown.

This is great news.

World Cup • Sep 10, 2023 06:52 PM

Team USA did not win any medal, lost to Canada for 3rd place.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 09, 2023 12:34 AM

Veatch seems to have better scouts on D, recall picking Bolton, Gay, Sneed, Watson, Williams, Trent, George, Cook etc

Chiefs D with the exception of DL is young and deep.

He hasn’t had same success on Offense except for couple of OL in Creed and Smith who fell down due to injury concerns.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 08, 2023 03:17 PM

@dylans He had missed pretty much all preseason camp and games. I blame staff.

NFL Season - 2023 • Sep 08, 2023 12:09 PM

Extremely frustrating game for Chiefs fans, too many drops and costly mistakes.

Short yardage play calling was awful.

On a bright side, D stepped by giving only 14 pts.
