Some fun here. Edwards-Helaire rushed for 1,415 yards and 16 touchdowns as a junior .. all-purpose yards -- receiving (55 receptions, 453 yards) and kick returner (KEY) 10 returns, 214 yards pic.twitter.com/3Duq1jjy6J
Holy offense Bat Man. I love Clyde Edwards-Helaire. He is best Rb in the draft. Watkins and Hill deep. Kelce in the middle. And Edwards-Helaire underneath. Good Luck defenses.
Brett Veach told Andy Reid to watch some Clyde Edwards-Helaire film and told Reid you’ll see Brian Westbrook. Reid watched. Then got back to Veach and said he’s better than Westbrook.

And honestly, the only team that i could see actually pulling that off is the Patriots.
If KC can run the ball, teams won't easily double Hill and Kelce. Doubling both works if the Chiefs can't run and the OL can't block four pass rushers on passing plays. [Reply]

They've got Mahomes and Andy. They can figure it out if one of them go down.
But I don't understand why we want to throw it elsewhere when those two always seem to be open. It's been that way for 3 years now. Are defenses gonna figure this out?
It's almost like players of that caliber, with a coach of Andy's caliber manipulating the defense and a QB liek Mahomes throwing them the ball are gonna just get open and it doesn't matter what anyone does.
Its never a bad thing to have other threats to put ultimate pressure on the defense. Thats what it was like when Sammy was healthy. [Reply]

Not really. As injured as he was, we still had Sammy Watkins the majority of games the past 3 years. How do you replace those 40-50 quality catches/plays? [Reply]
obviously with the power of hindsight Jonathon Taylor or Chase Claypool would have been much better picks. Oh well, can't always win in the draft. [Reply]

Tee Higgins, D’Andre Swift maybe?
I’ll let it play out until at least the end of this year….. [Reply]

That's pretty much where I am at.
CEH probably won't live up to his draft spot, although we can still hope.

Absolutely. I think CEH is still a little banged up and playing behind a brand new line. If he's not there by the end of the season, folks will have reason to be disappointed. [Reply]

Careful I got roasted for saying this two short weeks ago [Reply]
