We won't be facing Maxx Crosby every week. I dunno, I think he did OK. Yes, the holding penalties were shit. But ultimately it didn't cost the game, and he'll get better because of it.
No need to break the bank on a LT right now. We're getting better every week, and we have a pretty soft schedule coming up. WBF. [Reply]

Definitely not giving up on the guy- I’m just not sure he’s the LTOTF. Protecting Mahomes (especially as he enters his 30s) needs to be top priority. [Reply]
Miami lost again today and I believe the articles about Terron Armstead being the one Vet Miami could move before the deadline because they have a rookie waiting behind him.
Go get Armstead and let Kingsley learn behind him. [Reply]
The Chiefs have done enough scouting and drafting. They have to work on developing, and unfortunately a lot of that can only be achieved with time.
I will also bring up that Ethan Driskell is still on the 53-man roster and has not yet been demoted to practice squad through all of these bottom-of-the-roster churning moves we've made this year.
I know he's not somebody you pencil in going into an offseason or anything like that, but the Chiefs need to consider all of their options, and if his preseason is any indication, he's got something that could be used, even as a backup.
Fans aren't going to like it, but I think we've got to stay the course. Keep coaching and evaluating guys. Hope one of them sticks. If it's looking bleak in the practices and guys aren't progressing, then you consider making another move like we did for OBJ a few years ago and try again going that route.

That's all we got.
Agree.
Is Kingsley still viewed as the long term LT for us by the Chiefs? He just needs to work on his technique? [Reply]
They are going to stay the course with Morris and Kingsley.. Other than one bad series Morris was ok, not great but ok.. Patrick wasnt running for his life.. I do think Kingsley needs to get in for more game experience after working on his technique for 5 weeks.. [Reply]

Kingsley could always be our RT of the future and replace Taylor. LT should be the priority [Reply]

Back when I was hoping the Chiefs would make a more concerted effort to move Taylor to the left side, I was told on here that LT and RT are basically the same these days [Reply]

The folks here seem to think that winning erases poor LT/RT play and that as long as the team keeps winning no changes are necessary. [Reply]
