The Chiefs current roster features only eight players on the Offense and Defense that were a part of the Chiefs opening day 53-man roster just four years ago. Which eight players will still be on this roster four years from now? Jeff Chadiha (NFL Network/NFL.com/@JeffriChadiha), Sam McDowell (Kansas City Star/KCStar.com/@SamMcDowell11) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810 - WHB/810whb.com/@SorenPetro) take their shot at figuring out which handful of Chiefs players will beat the odds and still be on the roster heading into the 2030 season. Is Mahomes still QB-1? Will a WR step up and make the cut? Will Creed Humphrey or Trey Smith get a third contract? Is there a new Chris Jones on the DL? Will the Chiefs ever sign a DB do a second contract? ️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

The duo start with the six top defenders, including a surprise first overall pick in Will Anderson Jr, plus Myles Garrett, Micah Parsons, Patrick Surtain II, Chris Jones and Jeffery Simmons.

On this episode of NFL Live, Laura Rutledge is joined by Dan Orlovsky and Mina Kimes as the crew reacts to OTAs getting underway around the NFL. The Kansas City Chiefs are back on the field with veteran Chris Jones and new running back Kenneth Walker in the building, while the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks begin OTAs with rookie running back Jadarian Price generating plenty of buzz. Another rookie to keep an eye on is Eagles wide receiver Makai Lemon as Philadelphia opens camp, and Baker Mayfield is back in action as the Buccaneers get underway in Tampa. Meanwhile, there is a new quarterback in Minnesota; does that mean Kyler Murray has already locked up QB1 status? Dan Orlovsky says the answer comes down to one major factor. Plus, you do not want to miss the comparison one Buccaneers coach made between rookie Ruben Bain and some all-time greats, and why someone on the crew believes his impact could push Tampa Bay to the top of the NFC. There has also been plenty of change in Buffalo, including major defensive changes under new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard, but Mina Kimes explains why none of it matters if the Bills cannot solve one major issue from last season.

SUMMARY In this episode, Andrew Adams and Chris Jones discuss Chris's journey in martial arts, starting from his childhood fascination with martial arts films in the 1980s to his current role as a coach and instructor. They explore the impact of the 1980s on martial arts culture, Chris's experiences in Taekwondo, and his love for kicking and martial arts tricking. The conversation also touches on the challenges of tournaments, the joy of teaching, and the evolution of a martial artist. In this conversation, Andrew Adams and Chris Jones explore the philosophy of martial arts instruction, emphasizing the importance of elevating students beyond their instructors. They discuss the competitive spirit inherent in martial arts, the influence of fear in training, and the drive to be the best version of oneself. The conversation also touches on the unique aspect of breaking in martial arts, the journey of starting a podcast, and the challenges faced in podcasting. Chris shares his personal experiences and offers motivational advice to listeners, encouraging them to pursue their dreams and ambitions. TAKEAWAYS Chris's martial arts journey began in the 1980s, influenced by films like The Karate Kid. He initially watched martial arts classes before joining in at age eight. Training in the 1980s was very different, with less focus on safety. Chris took a break from martial arts during his teens but returned after realizing he missed it. He found a passion for kicking and martial arts tricking, which continues to this day. Tournaments were not enjoyable for Chris, but he found a love for forms competition. Chris's coaching journey began unexpectedly after he accidentally injured his instructor. He has been coaching full-time since 1999 and has not looked back since. Training with former students who have surpassed him is rewarding for Chris. Every instructor's goal should be for their students to get better than them. It's important to strive to be the best version of oneself. Breaking is a unique and fun aspect of martial arts training. Starting a podcast can be a rewarding yet challenging endeavor. Navigating the podcasting world requires perseverance and adaptability. It's okay to take breaks for mental health and self-care. Pursuing dreams and ambitions is vital; don't let others discourage you. Join our EXCLUSIVE newsletter to get notified of each episode as it comes out! Subscribe — whistlekick Martial Arts Radio

For a President who CLAIMS he's religious, there's a whooooole lot of blasphemy going on under Trump's second term.

The Chiefs traded up twice and turned nine picks into seven players. Let's put a letter grade next to each pick.Jeff Chadiha (NFL Network/NFL.com/@JeffriChadiha), Sam McDowell (Kansas City Star/KCStar.com/@SamMcDowell11) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810 - WHB/810whb.com/@SorenPetro) put a letter grade next to each of the Chiefs seven draft picks.- How does the trade up affect the grade on Mansoor Delane?- Will Peter Woods be the perfect compliment to Chris Jones?- Is R Mason Thomas just a situational player?- Can Jadon Canady be the next late round DB gem?- The Chiefs “loved” Emmett Johnson.- Where Cyrus Allen fits with the WR's?- What's the thinking with Garrett Nussmeier?
Analyze the schematic impact of the 2026 NFL Draft with a technical breakdown of the Giants' Arvell Reese selection and how Caleb Downs solves on-field personnel problems for the Dallas Cowboys. This episode evaluates the utility of roster construction and defensive value picks across the league.—In this episode:The New York Giants prioritized physical traits by selecting edge hybrid Arvell Reese at No. 5 overall, creating roster congestion and passing on defensive “quarterbacks” in Sonny Styles or Caleb Downs.Dallas solidified their secondary by landing Downs at No. 11, providing a versatile “Down” Safety that allows the defense to remain in Nickel for most snaps.Philadelphia's acquisition of Makai Lemon and Dontayvion Wicks signals a likely post-June 1st departure for AJ Brown and a shift toward front-end size with Jonathan Grenard.Kansas City addressed defensive interior depth by pairing Chris Jones with rookie Peter Woods and adding R Mason Thomas to maintain schematic flexibility along the front.The 2026 draft class was defined by significant schematic depth rather than elite high-end talent, favoring teams that targeted high-value consensus picks.—Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction: The Schematic Front vs. Player Evals 02:23 - The Giants' Dilemma: Reese vs. Stiles 07:00 - Dallas Cowboys: Caleb Downs and the New Secondary Look 13:50 - Philadelphia Eagles: The AJ Brown Trade Logic 24:40 - The Consensus Board: Analyzing Value and Reaches 36:00 - Kansas City: Replacing Chris Jones with Peter Woods 44:02 - Carolina & Washington: Rebuilding Defensive Identities 55:52 - Bengals: The Offseason's Biggest Defensive Overhaul—» Join Felix and Cody each Wednesday as we dive deep into the game we love!MatchQuarters is a reader-supported publication.

Cryptocurrency has come a long way since it was a fringe enthusiasm for get-rich-quick bros and anti-state libertarian fantasists. Now “stablecoins” like Tether are on the verge of becoming a parallel banking system in the US, except much less regulated. And the moneymaking opportunities that crypto affords are corrupting American politics to a staggering degree. Why is stablecoin more potent than regular crypto? Is the Trump Administration's crypto boosterism essentially an enrichment scheme for the Trump family? WTF is going on with “Trumpcoin” and “Melaniacoin”? How deeply are Nigel Farage and Reform UK committed to bringing all this to Britain? And what happens if a mega stablecoin falls over? The FT's Katie Martin takes Rafael Behr on an enthralling nightmare tour of “the biggest conflict of interest in history.” www.patreon.com/bunkercast Written and presented by Rafael Behr.

But behind the energy and charisma, Magyar is a complex figure – driven, ruthless, a traditional conservative and graduate of Orbán's Fidesz movement, and maybe not exactly the centre-left's dream date.
