You aren't intentionally trying to be risky. But it is whether you are trying to play not to lose by doing what you think might be the higher floor of moving your guard over.
Or playing to win although it has a lower floor.
There aren't any guarantees. I hope DJ has done enough to convince the team to start him. [Reply]
Andy says he hasn't made a decision at LT and then added that he likes what he saw in Denver and that Humphries is moving in the right direction. [Reply]

Humphries will 99.9% be the starter at LT for the first playoff game, but we all know what will happen if he starts sucking. [Reply]

I mean you don't really change what you do when you know regardless LT is a weak spot compared to the rest of the OL.
Frankly I think teams would rather see Thuney knowing Caliendo is a weak spot as well.
I think you partially answered your own question. Are teams going to radically change plans? No. But would they like to know whether KC is going to have a strength or weakness at guard? Sure, why not. [Reply]

Yup. Based on Andy's answers during pressers Humphries is the starter at this point.
He sucks again they can yank him and throw Thuney out at LT. Or at half time if that's his fatigue marker. [Reply]

They are going to try to attack the left side of our OL regardless of who we start at LT in my opinion.
I think Andy Reid and Andy Heck will figure it out but it seems to me you start DJ because shifting back to Thuney in game is easier than the other way around I would think and you only do that if its been a disaster. [Reply]
