Lol some are calling the couple HerBeer

It would be more expensive for him to hire a bodyguard, better to treat your big hogs to a meal and not have to pay for security...

Don't eat the beans and rice

I think they went out in LA to celebrate the win...not in Brasil anymore...

Is it too much to ask Tart to do it just once more when we play AT KC?

He might not need to run at all, right now he has more weapons than Mahommes has, two legit TEs, several serviceable WRs AND a superstar RB that's going to definitely be a big focus for our defense...

the guy that averaged 2 YPC…. on 19 carries ??

superstar, or…. closer to Rashaad Penny 2.0 ??

I've had my doubts since the start of his draft hype train.
check the receipts, they're all there.

A lot of hype around him that many on this forum have bought into. We'll see how he does from here. I wasn't very high on him.

Seeing Tart's "slap" reminded me of something Nick Hardwick said a few years back when he was doing color commentary on the radio broadcasts. He said at the time, the Bolts were missing a "badass", so-to-speak and how he felt having one or two on the team was a good thing. During his playing days, he mentioned Steve Foley and Randall Godfrey as players who filled that role.
I'm not saying Tart is a badass, but he certainly sent the message that he is not going to take crap from anyone.

100%
I know I'm being silly with my comments but I think Tart exemplified the overall spirit of the attitude which is, we're no longer being bullied by over the hill Kelce/dying dynasty, WE'RE the bullies now.

Why are we quick so celebrate this SLAP. Because he got away with it? He should have been tossed like J. Carter. He later had 3 knock downs which were critical. That is what we should celebrate. Yes, other teams have gotten away with lots of stuff. As a coach I want my players on the field and not in the locker room. If your going to smack someone, wait until the end of the game when it's been decided.
BUT we should be talking about ALT, what a STUD!!

To support your point, he actually DIDN'T get away with it, the result was that the penalty led to a Mahomes rushing TD
But personally, it's about the game within the game.
Kelce is known to play this GWG, and sometimes mistakes have a psychological impact on the game, I'd argue Tart helped us do that, even if it wasn't his intention.
Kelce has been.able to get into our guys' heads often, imo he gets into Derwin's head. If you celebrated Derein's pile drive, you should celebrate Tarts slap.
We have to take calculated risks with physicality, and this was more accidental than calculated, but sometimes you stand up to the bully.
