Quote:I've just seen a lot of people say he had a down year this year, and many of them credit it to his lack of effort/motor/dedication whatever word you want to use.


Combine that label following him from college to many times throughout his NFL career and I think it is fair to question if it would be exacerbated after a huge payday. He would only be like the 100000th FA to do that. It also seems to be an issue that big men are more common victims of.

I don't think there's any doubt hes been dedicated to the Chiefs. He plays great at the start of games but tends to wilt towards the end, easily explained by his snap counts and role as a nose tackle as any Chiefs fan worth his salt will tell you.


Sure every FA has a chance that they might just relax when they get the contract. There hasn't been evidence any to show that Poe would.
