Woof. Alright, so what would you do?
 

NOW.

Not last March. No 'what I would've done is...'.

What would you do NOW?

I would stop with the rotation at WR.

I'm playing Rice and Toney every play unless they need a breather. They are the two most talented.

I'm putting Hardman in MVS' spot. He's the fastest, and MVS never played big anyway. run ****ing go routes until you drop, Mecole. If they don't pull a safety over, we'll chuck it to you.

When Hardman needs a breath, send Watson out there.


Probably run a lot of 21.

Keep feeding Pacheco.

Simplify as much as you can.

Damnit, I meant 12 personnel. First cup of coffee.

Hardman was on the sideline grabbing his hand early in the game. I think he was limited, did not hear the injury report

There’s not a lot you can do.

You hope they pull their heads out of their ass in the playoffs.

I think I heard ‘thumb injury’ on the television broadcast.

Andy isn't gonna stop doing what he's doing. He's going to keep rotating WRs in and we will continue to be frustrated.

Seriously consider Sammy Watkins and use him in place of skyy. we cannot have WRs out there who only manage 1 forced target per game. Because man much as I want to improve this position it sure feels like we're 1 consistent option away from being good enough.

Stop pulling rashee off the field and take the kid gloves off. He's our best jumpball WR and while he's running better depth per route, his depth per target is still way too low

Toney was used great. Use him as a gadget to run options, jet sweeps, etc...

I want to say give James a go but i really don't want to change rotations yet again but I dunno... Maybe kick the tires on James too

Thumb injury. He hurt it on his first reception in the first half. He came back into the game late in the 3rd qtr

Disagree on Toney usage.

He looked really good last season when they used him as an actual WR. I don't understand what they're doing with him now, they barely use him at all.

Reid isn’t likely to make drastic changes midseason. We run Pacheco more and keep grinding and hope things get better. At the very least you must find more ways to get Rashee Rice the football. He’s easily the most explosive dude we’ve got and it’s insane that he doesn’t get more targets.

The positive is that the Chiefs have a top 5 defense which should keep us in games. Offense just needs to execute better and stop shooting themselves in the feet. Mahomes interception in the end zone and Kelce fumble cost us at least 6 points maybe more. Gotta be better.

Depends on why they're doing what they're doing.

I know in some people's minds (not OP), they're now down a path where they're far more likely to continue losing until something major happens (or they win again).... but, if they're saving guys for the playoffs with the rotation, they have a pretty decent chance of winning out while not changing that strategy.

Even then, I'd expect they'll shorten the rotation soon-ish... they used one game as a warmup last year and seems like they may need 2 or 3 this year
They're already making some of those adjustments, like getting Toney more touches and CEH far fewer the past few weeks.

Change personnel groupings at receiver - Limit MVS and Skyy, get Rice, Toney (provided he doesn't get hurt every game), James and Watson more playing time.

Change the routes these guys are running. More slants, more intermediate stuff.

Get the backs more heavily involved in the passing attack. More screens and wheel routes.

Start utilizing Gray more as a receiving threat out of the 12 looks.

Stop using our receivers as running backs and running them between the tackles.

They have been playing for the postseason for most of Mahomes' years. We are never patient enough, it's difficult

Don't know what there is to do. The WRs being absolutely shit there's not much to do realistically, but the far more concerning aspect of it is we seem to be watching Kelce age out in real time. He's openly flirting with retirement now and he seems to have been afflicted as well with the ****upitis.

Exactly. Not a damn thing will change. They’ll keep throwing shit at the wall hoping it will stick.
