Only ever talks about the ability to play both sides.

It's very simple to see if you look at the time line:

Taylor signed and Veach talked about versatility
Draft happened and did not draft a starting OT
Signed Smith after draft to play LT

Veach went and got a very high graded pass protecting OT in Taylor and in interviews and reports Taylor started working on BOTH RT drops and LT drops to be ready for where ever Reid needed him.

NOW I do think Taylor should be throw over to LT but that would have already happened if Reid wanted it.

Was this a corresponding move to signing Thornton, or to take Pacheco off IR?

I think Powell was on the PS. I think they replaced 400 year old Powell with Thornton.

This is why the Chiefs signed this kid. Kelce, Hopkins and Juju are not beating single coverage. They are purely zone beaters.

This is why getting Hollywood back will help immensely. And getting Pacheco back will help as well.

I wouldn’t mind if they tried to get this kid on the active roster next month.

Not an overreaction - but just an observation.

This Chiefs offense is woefully slow

It's tough to watch KC roll out Hopkins, Smith-Schuster, Watson at WR... These dudes are running with ankle weights. They can't beat press. They don't threaten anyone. RB position not dymanic pic.twitter.com/1jVLxM1M1q

Man they miss Rashee so badly. Worthy was the only one bringing juice to the offense. The rest of the weapons looked old and slow.

Just saw this on twitter. They're just so slow.

I don't know, maybe give some of that work Rashee was getting to Hardman? It's the one thing he's actually decent at and we just don't use him.

It's getting pretty fucking irritating seeing him barely get any snaps week to week when schlubs like Watson get as many as they do. Same with Steele and Perine.

Injuries have hurt this offense, but they really aren't doing themselves many favors either with the on field personnel rotations.

Holy fuck, Hardman has taken just over 100 snaps and has managed 14 targets on offense. Total. Moore took 82 before he got hurt. Justin Watson has over 400 snaps and has managed 20 targets.

Looked it up and Hardman played 13 snaps. If we're that slow, Hardman outside and Worthy in the slot should have made things difficult. (Or vice versa)
[Reply]

I've been thinking the same thing about their rotations, have to scratch your head at times with the groupings they send out.
[Reply]

Personally think Worthy is playing Hardman’s role and there isn’t much else Hardman can do. Hardman has never been a good player in the slot. He doesn’t sell routes well and they love putting Hopkins and Kelce there for that reason.

Talked about this in another thread. They put Hardman in the backfield as a RB option and threw to him in the flat. Was his best play and ended up easily burning a LB down the sideline for 10+ yards.

Want to use him there more but at the same time they need the blocking to help the OL.

This is why Hollywood coming back will help so much. He’s really fucking good in the slot and working the MOTF

I dunno, have a really hard time buying that when Watson is taking over 400 snaps and has 20 targets. That's egregiously useless. Even if you just send Hardman streaking down the field so they can't play press man across the LOS, he can be more useful than that.

If he does this he’s a candidate for the Ring Of Fame.
