    Your broad way of thinking just makes me think your issue with the reporter has nothing to do with the dubious narrative of her being a Browns fan.

    Perhaps he just has a problem with women being sports reporters, but his use of the word broad did catch my eye.

    Sounding like Ingram wasn’t wrong. Word out of KC is he’s playing really well of late and cannot believe we wouldn’t play him.

    Given the state of our defense I cannot fathom how we not only refused to give him the patience to pick up the defense , we traded him for peanuts and now have the worst defense in the league.

    He was playing. He had one game in which his snaps were down, but he was getting playing time and he wasn't doing much with it.

    I don't know how many times I must repeat this. Until His final game(that he didn't play in) He had more snaps than Highsmith, and one less than Watt. I know no way in saying.....How can anyone say He wasn't getting snaps???????
    Just using Your comments 2 piggyback.

    Don't get me wrong. It was a terrible trade. The should have kept him, but we don't need to use fiction to support that idea.

    By signing Ingram, the Chiefs were able to move Chris Jones back inside where he’s more productive. So yes, Ingram has made the Chiefs D better. Looking at his numbers, however, he has had 7 tackles and 1 sack over the course of 5 games. He’s not exactly on the path to the Pro Bowl. We lost some depth but someone can also make an argument that we didn’t lose much since Taco Charlton has 12 tackles and .5 sacks over the same period

    watt missed time due to injury and the better player lost at least half of the snaps to a lesser player on a struggling defense. More importantly we dumped him when we had no one to back him up… and it immediately became a problem and the defense collapsed.

    You can't use the facts because it goes counter to the yinzers narrative. They would rather just drink and yell nonsense.

    Ingram quit on the team. He had a "groin" injury which suddenly went away after the trade. Turns out that groin injury was just his balls receding into his vagina. Depth or no depth, no place on any team for cry babies, quitters, and troublemakers.

    I remember people bitching about ONLY getting a 3rd and 5th for AB. We ended up with more than the Raiders and Pats got for him. TB took a chance and suspended again.

    What was the option? If Melvin or his agent were already whispering to Aditi about his unhappiness they are looking at a bad breakup. My money is on the fact that when he signed the show me deal with Pittsburgh it was because no one else was calling. Then the very needy Chiefs inquired about him via trade and the reality of Broken Ben and the Steelers vs shiny supped up Mahomes and the Chiefs high powered offense became clear. KC was the better spot. In this day and age I don't think he shuts up and plays

    Ingram was playing quite a bit up until the Seattle game, he even started against the Bengals but he didn't do much, he wanted out and I read he refused to practice. They weren't going to get much for him in return, he's 32 and on a one year deal.

    He just got embarrassed by Herbert. Had him dead to rights for a sack and Herbert did a little hip jiggle and froze him.

    Yeah, this is the first KC game I have watched since Ingram joined the team......and he sucks. I'm not sure why everyone is so butthurt over the trade.

    Like someone said above it allowed them to put Jones back at a natural position and he is creating havoc there other than that Ingram has not been standing out for them.

    The Steelers were smart to get a draft pick for this guy.
    His production was below the line and by all accounts he had already quit on the team and the relationship was more than likely unrepairable. At that point you just bury him on the depth chart just to prove a point or do you get some value in a trade?

    Tuszka is getting snaps on defense and he is useless. It is a position for playmakers in a 3-4 and he doesn't make them. Those could have been going to Ingram.

    Then let him whine and sit before you help a future opponent.

    So, he can be another Harrison and be a distraction to the team, good riddance.

    Did the great Ingram make a play against the Chargers last night? I don't recall hearing his name called during the game :shrug:.

    Did SDOT hack your thread?

    Can only wish that Ingram was another Harrison. A Steeler legend. He just got tired of the BS of not getting snaps after all he did. Bet you loved him when he was crushing QB's and running backs huh? Without him their is not a 6th Lombardi.
