My gut is still telling me Andy really wants to give DJ the start, you just know it.
I bet it’s him. If he struggles, you just pull him out. It’s not like Thuney and Caliendo don’t already have enough reps together. Just throw him out there for a few drives and see what he looks like. [Reply]

The thing is Humphries got hurt in his first game back from injury and looked flat out of gas that 2nd half against Denver. It was also reported hes not currently at his playing weight. Hes going to need a full off season of Strength & Conditioning to get back to be at the level he was.
Ideally you'd want a player of Humphries caliber at LT with Thuney the future HOF at guard. The fact that isn't the current line up says something and likely indicates what I laid out above. [Reply]
I think that we should be fine with Thuney today. But I can't keep from thinking about Morris last year. He looked good his first few games. But when the Raiders played us the second game, Crosby destroyed him because he figured out how to beat him from the first game. This will be Thuney's second start at LT against the Texans. I really hope that they don't have something figured out to beat Thuney like the Raiders did Morris. That could be a disaster. But, I trust Andy's decision. Let's Go Chiefs! [Reply]

4 pressures(8% pressure rate), 3 hurries, and 1 hit isn't what Id call "did well". Wanya got ripped apart for better games than this. [Reply]

:-) Jesus tap dancing Christ, why the fuck are you such a Wanya Morris simp? It's okay dude, you got that one wrong. Dude sucks and Reid/Mahomes are done with his shit. [Reply]
:-) Morris isn't even dressing in playoff games now. He's gotten the Toney treatment. Just in case we needed further confirmation of how fucking DONE both Reid and Mahomes are with him. [Reply]

Wow. Who is our swing tackle if Taylor goes down? [Reply]
