I'm talking about the Wanya Morris slander.
Am I saying he's been the best tackle in the league? No, I'm not, but he is getting ran through the wringer and is getting about 95% of the blame for the pressure Mahomes is seeing and is getting a ton of blame for the offensive problems.
I'm saying that a ton more of that blame needs to be placed in the IOL. The guys that are getting there shit shoved in, so that there is never a pocket for Mahomes which forces him to have to bail the pocket. That makes it damn near impossible for Morris and Taylor to do their jobs.
Interior pressure has always been the one thing that can derail a Patrick Mahomes led offense. We've spent way too much money on the IOL for them to let so much pressure get through.
Enough with the Morris slander!
It's not slander when it's true. He's bad at times. Like, REALLY bad. Bad enough that even when he plays well Mahomes still doesn't trust him and bails on clean pockets. [Reply]

You're a loser who thrives on negativity and you rarely have anything good to say about the best team in the league. [Reply]

We handed the game to the Bills as much as they happily took it.
Ignoring a Kareem Hunt that repeatedly gashed the defense in favor of calling passes they struggled to block up killed several possessions.
Steve Spagnuolo appeared to be the only person on the planet completely unaware that Josh Allen wasn't putting the ball in anyone else's hands on 4th n 2.
As frustrating as that game was to watch, it played out just like several wins. Need points? Boom. Got em.
Down 2 and defense gets the stop we drive for game winning field goal and the band plays on.
Defense hit a speed bump and surrendered 7 when they absolutely couldn't do that, and it sealed the game.
We're going to murder Carolina and Vegas, and no better time for back to back get right games.
The L forces cleanup. It shows you can't just sleepwalking to wins, and you need to pull your head out of your ass if you want to win against a top contending football team.
The LT situation is a problem. Wanya os a guard at best, swing tackle in a pinch.
I'd prefer Thuney start playing snaps at LT and move Wanya inside. If Mahomes is protected and moreover TRUSTS that he's protected, he's unstoppable.
Happy feet and rushed throws, free shots on him, they're all having a profound effect on his statlines this year.
Thuney while better, has not been playing to his normal standard. [Reply]

he’s become far less curmudgeonly (as one would hope after 3 SBs) but back in the day he would write some epic soliloquies detailing how Andy Reid would never win a SB [Reply]
