Anybody hear Doug Peterson today on 810? Soren asked him about how valuable the left tackle position is, and he replied,

"It's comforting...it's comforting to know that your back side is completely covered...but that left side, if you're a right handed quarterback, is important to have and I feel like here in Kansas City we've GOT a good one."

Then, when asked point blank about Albert coming back (WE'VE GOT A GOOD ONE, WILL WE CONTINUE TO HAVE A GOOD ONE?), Soren said he figured he knew what the answer would be - that they're working on it.
Peterson:

"It is, it is. And that's something that, you know, with Coach Andy Heck as the offensive line coach now, he's evaluating that process with Eugene Chung, and honestly we like...we like what we see up front...if you have that backside tackle, and you can continue to develop his talent - yes, you're going to have to give him some help with a tight end and a back and all that, you understand, that by scheme and by game plan, you're gonna do that. But also to know that he is on an island and can shut down that back side, gives you a lot of confidence to take those deeper drops."

Translation:
BRANDEN ALBERT AIN'T GOING ANYWHERE. SHUT UP ABOUT JOECKEL.
