Chiefs Chiefs will need to adjust and figure this out - Page 4

Another OL tweet but it’s interesting. Notice anything the Bills did?

Here are the cutups of the plays where Patrick Mahomes was listed as pressured. #Chiefs #ChiefsKingdom pic.twitter.com/nmJWOrom9T

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.

I expect a prototypical overcorrection from Veach this offseason even if it costs the defense in some capacity. I can see it getting wild in terms of the spending/trades.

They already did that, Brown and Rice both got hurt and there hasn't been a LT chance unless you wanted to trade like 3 1's for Joe Alt.

Thing that sucks for him is he's almost assuredly ending up on one of the perennial bottom feeding squads that are willing to massively overpay to get talent. Although he's already gotten the rings so the last thing to secure is the bag.

Robert Hunt v2 dude got the bag as a guard but got it in Carolina.

At this point they need to treat LT like they did receiver. Keep spending picks from Rounds 1-3 until you finally hit on one.

Hell, if they could go back in time, I wonder if they match that 3/24 given to Wylie and try Taylor at LT…

Yeah, just keep swinging at it I guess. It sucks but it's kinda one of those things you get when you win like we do.

How have they not done that already?

24 round 2 Kingley Suamataia
23 round 3 Wanya Morris
22 none
21 none-orlando brown trade
20 round 3 Lucas Niang

That is a 5 year stretch where in 4 of those years a top 3 round draft pick was invested in OT.

Right, I’m saying they need to keep doing this.

(And just maybe, look in the mirror at how they’re scouting and coaching that position).

I don't think the LT spot is as big of an issue as it seems if the rest of the OL was playing well.

Seems like everyyear we go thru them playing bad and then we get a "we're simplifying things" PC and it goes better.

Morris is probably a guard...the issue is they need a LT and finding one outside of the first 10-15 picks is extremely hard.
