For a lot of rookies with a big jump from college to pros this is the time of year where it starts to slow down for them. With opportunities there with Hardman limited and likely out at the same time as Juju likely being out, I think the kid makes the most of his opportunities and likely feels he “owes the team” after 2-3 costly mistakes.

Maybe it's a Chiefs thing and not a player thing. :-)
CP hates it when players not named Patrick Mahomes have to develop. They hated it with Eric Fisher, they hated it with Derrick Johnson. Hell I remember people here who thought Travis Kelce wasn’t gonna be anything when he got injured as a rookie.
It’s not a surprise that they expect the same for Skyy. [Reply]

What 3 WRs will be missing the Chargers game?
MVS was just sick
Juju is in protocol
Did I miss anything?
Hardman is also missing practice. All 3 of them might be missing on Sunday.
Need the defense to play great and hope that the likes of Toney/Moore/Watson can step up big time. I'm sure the Chargers will double team Kelce on every play. Maybe KC can get a solid run game going and some RB pass plays as well. [Reply]

There's a difference between a player developing and a player who's biggest contributions have been contributing to turnovers and losses.
We all hope Skye can turn it around but it doesn't change the fact that up to now, he has shown absolutely nothing to show that he will this season. And when a player who has been on a team for 2 weeks looks like a MUCH better contributor, you kind of lose the "the offense is too complicated to expect anything year 1" argument. [Reply]

I defended literally every single one of those guys well before they broke out.
You're painting with an awfully broad brush to avoid taking an argument head on and addressing it on the merits.
Guess that's probably the best lever to pull in defense of Moore at this point, though. [Reply]
Well, there isn't a better week for Skyy to show what he's got than this week. With JJSS likely out, and with Hardman's status up in the air and MVS being sick, he's certainly getting 1st team reps in practice all week.
Even if MVS and Hardman play (and i expect MVS will), the Chiefs will likely still be managing their snaps, which should mean more snaps for Moore.
He may not have a better a opportunity this season to showcase what he's got than on Sunday. [Reply]

Pretty much. Skyy should be able to show out some in this game, if JJSS/MVS/Hardman don't play, or if even just one of those guys doesn't play. [Reply]

I’d be surprised if Juju or Mecole plays. That may even go for the next 2 weeks. [Reply]
