Chiefs Andy Reid called me, and he asked CP to fix the offense. - Page 39

I think we can all agree the offense has not been up to par this season.

At this point, there's only so much we can do about it. Our best WR got injured and is missing the season, our best RB is out until December, our LT situation is messy and our stud TE is looking his age.

So, is this who we are now? Is 30 points a game a distant memory?

What can be done?

(Andy Reid is lurking in this thread, so make sure you're on your best behavior.)

But at a point, unless we're talking about Greg Robinson, I have to assume that these guys aren't missing any issues that I'm seeing.

Could have buttoned it up right there. I was actually thinking this yesterday.

I get its frustrating to watch the offense off kilter but, come on guys.

You think a bunch of slapdicks on CP can see the issues but Reid and company who will be watching every snap of every play repeatedly and dissecting everything have no clue what's going on?

I'll give them, including Nagy, the benefit of the doubt for now. Coaches coach but players got to make plays and from what I can tell so far its players making mistakes causing the issues.

I think the whole trust in the LT accusations are massively overblown as well. Mahomes has spent half his career running for his life behind average OL's.

Part of why the Chiefs are such a low ADOT offense right now is Mahomes doesn’t feel comfortable with his left tackle spot. His pressure-to-sack percentage is 14.8 after an average of 11 the past two seasons. His time to throw is about half a second faster than 2022-23.

Mahomes bailing out of clean pockets is a bigger issue.

Problem is who would Veach even go after ATM to start at LT? Is Donovan or Bakhtiari even in shape? Call old man Jason Peters?

Who would trade a starting LT atm?

I'm old enough to remember when CP collectively said to let Kingsley start and play and learn and we will take the lumps that go with it.

Now its "fuck that guy!" 3 weeks into the season.

That team had 2 HOF'ers in the peak of their powers and Mahomes was just letting it rip.

This was never going to be easy. The Chiefs still have the best QB in the league. The handwringing over ADoT and explosive plays after 3 games (at 3-0) is overblown. I’m confident Mahomes will be standing tall come January.

It's true, but the two issues are related. He's bailing out because he's "hearing footsteps."
