2023 Conference Championship Round Thread

That makes a big difference. Three of the four teams playing this weekend have starting QBs who are still on their rookie contracts. Much easier to build a team around that guy if he's only making a few mill.

2022 Cap hits:

Jimmy G - $12.6M + Trey L - $7.8M + Brock P - $724K = $21M
Joe B - $11.5M
Jalen H - $1.6M

Patrick M - $36M

Carson W - $28M + Taylor H - $3.4M = $31.4M <------------ Ouch!

its more impressive that KC is performing at such a high level with the Patty hit then it is SF staying under the cap with all their talent

Once you get that guy at QB1 and he blows up your cap then drafting around him, instant talented and high impact low salary players becomes the priority

KC does it well

GB not so much
