That's a pretty aggressive take. Could be right, especially in year 1 (remember Reek was a RB).

But it would be a hell of a thing if he had a better first 5 years than Reek. He was incredible.

Well his ceiling is Jerry Rice and his floor is Jerry Rice so I don't see how he shouldn't have Jerry Rice numbers as a rookie

Why? Hollywood and Worthy give this offense something it absolutely did not have last year: downfield ability.

I think we are primed to see a big year from Hollywood Brown. Like 1k+ yards and 8+ TD’s kinda season. Rice l think will be better this year and build off what he did last year.

Worthy and Wiley are in the perfect spot to me. Kelce, Hollywood and Rice are the top guys. The 2 rookies are complimentary. 4th receiving option at best which works great for them.

It’s not gonna be 2018 bc I think we’ll see a similar type of offense as 2022

I really like Hollywood in this offense. Kelce and Rice allows Worthy to just be an extra that puts that extra strain on defenses.

I do think defenses will quickly go back to shell coverages and make us be efficient as in 2022 and we know how to do that.

Last year we just didn't have enough firepower to run our offense.

A lot of that depends on how much time he misses. A 4-6 game suspension is a real possibility right??

Yes, but he’s been in the lab most of this offseason working with Mahomes and Co.

I’m sure he’ll get some playing time in preseason as well. I don’t see him getting off to a slow start even if he missed 6-8 games.

I expect there to be some growing pains while Rice serves his suspension. Once he comes back and stresses the middle of the field these guys are really gonna fly.

I'm sure he'll take a while to get going and then the same people that flipped out on Rice and Karlaftis will do the same shit again blaming Veach for a bad pick

(no comment on the ones that didn't like how Skyy was progressing though)

People flipped out about Rice? He was great day 1. The only complaint was they wouldn't take the training wheels off of him and kept forcing Skyy and Toney down our throats.

He was dropping passes early on if you remember

Actually, I think he has a fumble problem. I know he fumbled at least once in the Super Bowl that we got away with because it fell right in to the hands of Watson, I think.

This is a pretty fun video.

It was awesome that Hard Knocks got to capture the moment in NFL Combine history when #Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy broke the 40-time record. pic.twitter.com/1yB17dIJYM

Dude we were flipping out about dropped passes in preseason if you recall.

It's pretty obvious that BWillie pays zero attention to what's actually going on.
