Not a good sign that Sam seemed nervous in the presser, it may show he lacks confidence, and that could be part of his problem.

On highlights I saw some good pocket movement, but sometimes some bad decision making, throwing the ball into crowds.

He's been with 2 of the least functioning teams overall in the NFL for years. I'm sure he lacks confidence. Who wouldn't?

Yep. I've almost never seen that many ums and like I said in 6 minutes.

Maybe he passed speech class with a C- Not sure that's the best indicator of confidence as a QB.

I didn't count them, but he may have had 100 ums in 6 minutes. I do see that as an indication of somebody who's not comfortable in a press conference. It doesn't mean he can't play well.

1 up to 6. Structured in a way that it shouldn't cost us one of the 3rd round comp picks we likely have coming. Or maybe he's one of those guys you can sign without impacting the comp pick formula.

The Kansas City Chiefs have agreed to trade L'Jarius Snead to the Tennessee Titans for a 2025 third round pick and a 2024 seventh round pick swap.

Snead and the Titans have the framework of a contract in place that will make him one of the NFL's highest-paid cornerbacks.

The Chiefs used the franchise tag on Snead this offseason. Kansas City will free up $19.8 million in cap space after trading Snead.

Someone that has talent, confidence in themselves, and also realizes he has been in bad situations.

Is that to be their kicker or as training camp competition?

Training camp competition for K Anders Carlson, who missed an important 42 yard attempt in the playoffs against SF. Carlson has also been bad at kicking extra points.

Hopefully the Pack can run into some bad luck in the kicking department.
