I counted 2 bad plays there. If that's getting "WRECKED" sign me up for it.

But the two toughest teams we'll face both have really iffy secondaries.

We really should be able to move the ball methodically and consistently against both of them in very similar ways to what we did against Pittsburgh and Texas.

Hell, if we face Detroit, same story. Probably Minn and LA as well.

There just aren't any lockdown secondaries we're likely to face in the post-season unless we get another rematch with Philly.

With these questionable secondaries on the other side, why SHOULDN'T we fire fast and let YAC do the work. It's likely to avoid turnovers and keep us in a positive game script.

Again, I don't disagree. I just don't think that's what the Chiefs want to do.

And I'm just playing Devil's advocate.

I MIGHT disagree with myself. I really have no idea.

The ability to unlock the entire playbook has been why I wanted to see Humphries grab the job. But if he hasn't (and I don't think he's seized it with both hands by any means) then I don't think we need to force the issue.

If Thuney at LT protects Andy from himself...well shit, maybe that's the best case scenario.

Thanks for chiming in, Andy. Glad you finally let us know.

Run that same offense with DJ and get our superior interior running game back too. In a way that RPO is similar to play action.

Based on that tape alone I don't see why you'd sit him for Thuney.

Honestly watching that film I thought Kingsley looked pretty damn good at LG. He doesn’t have to kick step as much (which I think is his biggest weakness). Maybe we have something with him at guard?

He's probably your starting RG next year would be my guess.

Oh no! He was totally WRECKED, he was TERRIBLE, he was unbelievably BAD and clearly not anywhere near being in football shape! Maybe not even better than Kingsley, who is the WORST NFL LT GUARDIAN HAS EVER SEEN.

If Hump's biggest issue is conditioning as the game goes on, but he's decent when in the first half...

Is it a terrible strategy to have him start the first half, and slide Thuney in for the second half if/when (before) he starts to drop off?

I know a mid-game shuffle is normally not ideal and typically done out of desperation after poor performance or injury.

But if that's the gameplan all along, and everyone is ready/on the same page, could that be a net-positive? Essentially a LT by committee approach.

You are the living embodiment of Dunning-Kruger. With a healthy dose of asshole mixed in.

I think this is the correct analysis. As soon as he got the hamstring injury Humphries was a long shot for the playoffs.

Maybe he does ultimately offer the higher ceiling, but he really hasn't shown that, and probably never could once he lost that time. I just don't think they can bank on his past form to reappear. I'd be amazed if they don't go with Thuney.

Plus side, maybe he is a more affordable option next year now, with a full offseason and a chance for us to give him a fair chance to learn the offense and build some chemistry with the OL, maybe we'll see that higher ceiling yet.

Everybody is talking about how this affects Mahomes and the passing game, but I wonder how much it changes our ability to run the football. Thuney is a beast at LG. Putting him at LT and somebody else at guard has to hurt the Chiefs running game, right??

So, in watching that tape DJ looked halfway decent, and all these comments about them having to change the offense for Thuney make you think they want to go with Humphries. I really wonder if they have a plan as of now, or if they are still figuring things out. They didn't exactly put anyone in a position to succeed yesterday, so you have to think they aren't overly concerned or excited over what they saw and weren't going to put much stock in the film that came out of it because of the situation.

Maybe they've already seen enough in practice and the film room to know he's the guy. Obviously, if you really want to put the best group out there, it's going to include him, at least on paper. I hope he's up for this, because this isn't the Arizona Cardinals anymore. I know he's used to big games in college, but this is an entirely different beast.
