Nzoner's Game Room>Pro Bowl LT DJ Humphries [signed by Chiefs]
SHOWTIME 09:18 AM 11-22-2024
Does Veach give him a call?

I predict @Chiefs. Makes too much sense https://t.co/hu5xdI5KF2

Mahomes getting the ball out faster could have more to do with Brown than protecting Thuney. :-)

Eyeball test says our offense was pretty damn good the last 3 games that mattered. The 3 games in 11 days offense. Not the Denver game. That one doesn't count for anything.
Literally not a single shred of evidence that we changed the offense and the indirect evidence that "Pat got the ball out faster" could just as well mean that they figured out some stuff with the guys we have on offense that just fit better (I mean the WR's).

The idea we can't run behind Caliendo is also bullshit.

All you have to do is watch Thuney's pass reps dude. He is not a LT. You can tell by watching him.

He was saved by an offense that was getting the ball out faster than Patrick has ever thrown, in his entire career.

Other than the game film, yeah not a single shred. :-)

Actually that was supplied and showed that isn't true. Dude you've been insufferable about this. For real

Good.

I I now what I'm watching. And I frankly don't care who starts.

I'm just laughing at all the people that have so little faith or confidence in this team.

Because it's the best move barring something we don't know about. Having a guard playing LT is NEVER ideal. Ever.

Don't confuse having faith in Thuney and Caliendo to not having faith in the team. We have seen it work.

And if Andy elects to go with Humphries and Thuney, let's roll!

The quick release time that some people think is due to Thuney, could also be attributed to Pat’s ankle injury and the return of Brown.

I would concur if we had any proof of said LT

That's true.

But do we have any proof Humphries is at that level? Other than "trust the coaches"?

We have a few SB trophies in the cabinet as proof that maybe, just maybe, we should trust the coaches.

Humphries looked great for a half of football. If the coaches think he's ready for the playoffs, they'll start him. If not, they'll start Thuney. I trust Reid and Co to make that decision.

As for hope, you bet your ass I hope Humphries can play LT because 1) Thuney isn't all that great there and 2) we regress far below the mean at LG with Caliendo. I much prefer the absolute nails that is Thuney at LG over all things. Hell, why shouldn't we prefer Morris at LT to Thuney so long as he's healthy in this one? Give him a little help with a chip if you need to but let's not concede immediate pressure to their DTs to compound issues. Settle and Edwards combined for 8 sacks this year so it's noteworthy.

Andy Heck: I want an all-pro at LT.

BV: I tried, but it didn't work out.

AH: You're giving me jack and shit. I ****ing quit. Just kidding. I'll do what I can.

Eh, I would guess that 99% of people in this thread agree with this. We just have very little else to talk about after the team hasn't played a meaningful game in 3 weeks.

I HOPE that Humpries is looking good enough that he gets a chance because I believe that's our best-case scenario, but if the coaches have seen him in practice and decide that it's too much of a risk, I'm not going to be upset in the least if it's Thuney-Caliendo instead. Nervous, maybe, but not upset (and to be fair, we'll all be a little nervous if it's Humphries-Thuney, too).

I agree the best case scenario is Thuney at guard with a decent LT. But, what regressed when Thuney was outside? KC had its best offense against Houston and Pitt.
