    Must really suck to be a Bills fan. And yet, the Oilers couldn't hang onto a 32 point lead.

    I will never forget sitting down and enjoying lunch thinking the Oilers are going to the Super Bowl. What happened in the second half is incompetence taken to the highest level.

    He has won multiple rings, is going down as one of the best TE all times. Has an insane personality who will be hired by CBS or FOX and paid millions.

    Easy decision imo.

    Why risk career deliberating injuries at this point when you have zero to prove?

    Him and his brothers podcast is 1 of 1 as well.

    Mahomes will not succeed without Kelce if he retires. What y’all think?

    KC would be better off giving Mahomes talent, but Mahomes lost Hill and didn't miss a beat. And there's no question now that Hill was elite. He wasn't Mahomey made. So you lose that talent and keep on chuggin, that's impressive. Kelce same.

    What?! Mahomes had a down year compared to most years he's played and KC didn't have an amazing record like in years past.

    And Ravens will win it all. Does that make the Texans the number two team in the league? No, but it is a thought.

    There is talk they may create a "Manning Cast" type of show for one of the networks.

    I wonder if Kelce retiring will free up enough money for them to sign Chris Jones instead of letting him go.

    From my understanding up an NFL player's retirement, any remaining prorated bonus money previously paid out gets charged against the current year's salary cap.

    From a salary cap accounting perspective, a player retirement equates to the team releasing that player.

    While any non-guaranteed money is surrendered when a player retires, any salary already paid out in the form of bonus money accelerates onto the present year's cap space as "dead money."

    He may have a cap hit for next season depending on timing.

    Baltimore by 16 points.
    Niners by 13 points.
    Both games relatively easy for the home squads.

    Consider my "distinguished" NFL prediction record, and lay your bets accordingly.

    I want close games 1st of all (so I really dig your picks), and I'm kinda rooting for Detroit and Balmer, but Niners v Ravens would be the best Super Bowl I think, so I'm also rooting for that.

    Andy, Kelce and Mahomes just punched the Ravens square in the jaw.
