Kingsly was spent. He was worn out and was getting beat. They took him out before his confidence was completely shot and the game was lost. It was the right move.
My guess is he'll play again today and have a much easier task ahead of him. [Reply]
We will see how it plays out, but I would be lying if I didn't admit I'm concerned. Protecting Mahomes blindside is pretty critical. If Mahomes gets hurt and is out for several games, it's likely kiss the season goodbye time. [Reply]
Like Madden used to say about QBs “If you have two quarterbacks, you actually have none.” The same is true of left tackles. Hopefully Kingsley can step up. [Reply]

1) That's definitely not true anymore. We have the best b/u QB we've had in Mahomes career. We also actually have a SB team now and not just a few offensive playmakers that Pat drags to the playoffs every year.
2) Kingsly has more talent than any LT since Fischer was here. There's a balance between learning on the job and protecting Pat but depending on how we handle this it will lead to him being more safe - not less. [Reply]

1) Lets hope we don't have to find out. You're right, Wentz is probably the best backup we have had in years, but there is a reason he is a backup and not a starter in the NFL.
2) I think Kingsly has the potential to be a good (hopefully great) LT in the NFL, but he is still raw and needs a lot of work. [Reply]
