Regarding the two most asked questions regarding Saturday, my feel here is that the #Chiefs ride with Joe Thuney at left tackle, and CB Jaylen Watson starts, playing about 50% of defensive snaps.

Let’s be fair here: Andy handed that job to Kingsley based on projection and nothing else and it was a move that ended in disaster. [Reply]
Attribute it to whatever you want, Kingsley got the job over Morris. And they both ended up being fucking disasters, which is why the Chiefs are currently in the situation they're in here. [Reply]

Not at all.
If Thuney starts, it's because they didn't think Humphries can do it.
I believe if you have an All Pro LG, he should play LG. My contention was always with the caveat that if the coaches think Humphries can't go, they should start Thuney.
But we don't know any of what is going on in meetings and practice. We can only go on what we know and that's that a decent LT should play LT and an all pro LG should play LG.
I'm rooting for the best possible scenario. That's all. If Thuney starts, it's because they had no other choice and I would support it. [Reply]
That’s what happens when you don’t pick early. Pretty clear that if you don’t have a top 15 or so pick, the overwhelming odds are that you are not getting a quality LT prospect.
Might have to just say **** it and trade up bigly this year. Wouldn’t recommend that. Hopefully one of these guys fall to 24 and we trade with the Vikings. [Reply]

We sign Humphries for next year and hope Kingsley can grow into the role? *shrug* [Reply]

DISASTER!!??! What happened that I missed? Is Mahomes dead? Are we out of the playoffs? Did Arrowhead collapse because of Kingsley? [Reply]
