Expect Hartline to stay on board ... Co-OC ... Just not going to be calling plays with more of an emphasis on recruiting ... With OC pay ...
Hear anything else on the Commanders? Ben Johnson seems like a front runner, but wouldn't be shocked to see Raheem Morris there either.

Heard nothing but I am making a prediction (which is a hot take), I think the Bears and Washington are swapping picks #1 and #2 overall....

Kansas City will be NFL Champs, again. No reason to bother even playing ‘The Big Game!’ It’s a done deal.

Why? NFL loves the huge crossover interest from Taylor Swift and her millions of Swifties. NFL loves publicity and expanding the NFL footprint and making even more money. Especially the money part.

And so, Chiefs can NOT be allowed to lose, ‘The Big Game!’. You’ve got to have the storybook ending and Swift and Company get their big victory on the Worldwide stage. And the big Hollywood climax photo shot of Swift planting a Great Big Fat One at the end of the game on the lips of the already-over-media-exposed KC Tight End. You simply cannot disappoint all those Swift fans and suffer the big backlash you would get from that. And remember the directive.. Expand The Footprint. Female Demographic. Non-NFL fans. Onward and upward.

They’ll maybe make the game close to keep viewers glued to the tube. Why? You gotta satisfy all those advertisers who are paying filthy amounts of money to put their Influencers in front of tens of millions of pairs of eyes and ready to be influenced.

Could I be wrong? Sure. But you have to remember something.

The NFL is structured as an “Entertainment Business”. And what is more ‘entertaining’ than seeing a young billionaire lady with millions of fans plant one on a millionaire KC tight end in the middle of the field with confetti raining down!

And after that... in front of the whole Worldwide audience... he PROPOSES to her!

Yeah! Bring It On! THAT’s Sports Entertainment as its finest.

Try THAT for entertainment, NBA.

if there is a o/u on how many times they show Taylor Swift in the box suite, I’m betting the over if it’s 14

I don't think you're wrong on this. The NFL hasn't been great at capitalizing on these types of situations. And then this falls right into their lap? I bet there are a whole lot of executives in the NFL office screaming, "don't screw this up!!!!".
Would they go that far though? I certainly wouldn't bet against it.

There is a local connection to the Super Bowl. Chiefs LB coach Brendan Daly is an SHG grad. He has been a part of 5 different Super Bowl coaching staffs (3 in New England, 2 in Kansas City) since the 2014 season.
