That's exactly what Andy said in his presser after the Cincy game regarding Kingsley needing to take a step back in order to take a step forward.
"But the threepeat!" These are regular season games, folks. The Chiefs have a plan and it involves Kingsley being the long term starting LT because they believe he can be better than Morris. If you bench Kingsley now, you're sticking with the lesser talent on the field for the playoffs, and in case you don't remember, the PLAYOFF games are how you win a SB, not the regular season ones.
You all need to calm the **** down. If Kingsley is still churning out Cincy games after the half season mark or so, THEN you can start to do your little pee pants worry games.

LT is the 2nd hardest position on the entire team to fill. Good LT’s never fall in the draft. They are always going top 10, 15 at worst.
If we keep winning it makes it that much harder. This is the best he can do. [Reply]

Okay, then tell the Chiefs to tank for a year so they can get a top 5 pick.
Oh, you like winning? Then you're going to have to draft Wanyas and Kingsleys and hope one of them becomes good enough. [Reply]

Yeah, we have 4 OL starters right now that are top notch or close enough. We have this one spot that is one of the toughest to fill, but we've managed to have it be adequate enough to win multiple Super Bowls while we search. Keep after it. Hopefully Kingsley is the answer and just needs a little more development time.
If Morris sucks today I want Donovan Smith on speed dial, though. I know everybody here tells me he sucked all last year but there was never a thought of benching him. [Reply]
