He's not going up against an elite pass rusher today (or at least I can't name whoever the hell is at DE for Atlanta) so he should have a better game. And if he does have a better game, that's a significant step. That's exactly what Andy said in his presser after the Cincy game regarding Kingsley needing to take a step back in order to take a step forward.

"But the threepeat!" These are regular season games, folks. The Chiefs have a plan and it involves Kingsley being the long term starting LT because they believe he can be better than Morris. If you bench Kingsley now, you're sticking with the lesser talent on the field for the playoffs, and in case you don't remember, the PLAYOFF games are how you win a SB, not the regular season ones.

You all need to calm the **** down. If Kingsley is still churning out Cincy games after the half season mark or so, THEN you can start to do your little pee pants worry games.

Someday I hope they solve this problem. As Mahomes gets older it will be magnified more. Veach must stop messing around.

Okay, then tell the Chiefs to tank for a year so they can get a top 5 pick.

Oh, you like winning? Then you're going to have to draft Wanyas and Kingsleys and hope one of them becomes good enough.

People gotta consider that this isn’t one of those positions where you can just put a guy out there and let him struggle if you think it’s a danger to Pat.

Blindside hits will get him hurt as easy as anything, it’s the last position they can **** around with.

If Worthy has a couple bad reps, it really isn’t gonna matter. When the LT does, it could end your season. So do what you can do improve your game and be ready when your number is called, but until then, we’ve got a GOAT to protect.

He showed well against the Ravens, but let's be honest - the Ravens don't have a pass rusher in Hendrickson's class. Judon is in that discussion, albeit a lesser player (I feel Hendrickson is known to be good yet still very underrated), and he's lining up next to Grady Jarett tonight, another underrated player. Wanya has the experience so he gets the nod, but I won't be shocked to see Kingsley out there in certain situations.
