A lot of times, including the last play of the game, they had 2 DL on one side of the OL crash hard and bull rush the G and T. They see Mahomes flushing out constantly. They crash the OL and flush Mahomes out the way they want and have a LB spy fly to that zone they force Mahomes to go to so he’s got instant pressure in his face.
This also cuts off half of the field. Chargers did this in week 2 and Mahomes struggled badly against it. Bills copied that from Harbaugh and I expect other teams to do the same. [Reply]

And if you buy an LT, you have Morris who can play OG pretty easily, IMO. It's where he should really end up either way.
But yeah, I think Nourzad is going to be someone they hope can take that job as soon as next season and if they aren't confident that he can, he'll sit another year with Morris taking the job and potentially another mid-round pick brought in to backfill for Thuney the following year.
I just can't see a world where re-signing Trey Smith makes any sense. [Reply]

Now just figure out where you can get a LT worth a damn. [Reply]

That or Morris grows into a decent enough swing tackle with all the work he's getting this season, either way we can find a spot for him here
But oh yeah Trey is gone daddy gone, we can't keep' em all [Reply]

Its a longshot, but ya just never know...
That's just the thing. If they're ejecting a vet in favor of a draftee, that vet is likely declining or injury prone.
While they can do what you want, it seems like that would be a continuation of what they've been doing since Fisher retired. [Reply]

Again, you're always going to be 90% right viewing it that way... there are usually good reasons teams ditch the vet in favor of the kid
But every once in a blue moon you get a "Silverdick" situation, the Niners have gotten five good years out of him... what I wouldn't give for five years of stability at LT
I'm dreaming and I know it, but the washout rate for rookie LT's is only eclipsed by that of hotshot rookie QBs... a proven youngish vet would be just what the Dr ordered :-) [Reply]
Jawaan got a shit deal Sunday. These DL know he’s had trouble with penalties and bait officials. This was in no way a hold by him.
FFS
Land Clark fell for it hook line and sinker. Ed Oliver gets his hands inside on Jawaan Taylor’s framework. Once he sees Mahomes is about to get by him, he drops the right knee and reaches out his right arm to create a hold called. pic.twitter.com/YFMxqKvfAg
