This guy may have a parade in his honor if he plays good in his first game.

The expectations and hope for this guy are sky high.

I'd settle for just being adequate for now. Just give Pat 3 freakin seconds.

I think the opposite. I think our expectations and desires are so low that even if he’s just average we are going to be crowning him an all time great just purely from being mesmerized that the LT is actually allowed to provide resistance.

They don’t come as free agents unless insanely overpaid. And we can’t trade for one. The only other option seems to be trading up in the draft but even that’s nothing certain.

We are extremely fortunate that a pro bowl caliber player became available due to injury and his old team already having a replacement with no need to hold onto the guy. It seems like a pretty unique set of circumstances, that if it works out, is basically manna from heaven.

Exactly. And the deal is, he does not have to still be Pro Bowl caliber. Even if he is average to above average, he will be MUCH better than what we have. However, going forward, there will always be an injury concern with him, but, I'll take that any day over the 100% positive concern that the Left Tackles I currently have cannot play.

Yeah….you basically just need him to be a decently solid LT

We don’t need Willie roaf just don’t get beat immediately

Yep. At this point the house is on fire. Our franchise QB is getting hit from his blindside over and over. Get this man on the field.

I’m on record here saying the Charger game would be too early to put him out there.. Based on what we have seen … **** that! If he says he can go.. Do it.. Or at least keep Thuney at left tackle one more game.. Morris can’t see the field again…

BlackOp 11-30-2024 10:58 AM

KC's three peat hinges on Humphries being average...what a stroke of luck that the Chiefs even have a chance to improve that position.

I've never seen a player single highhandedly ruin an offense...Morris is close. Some of those pressures/sacks were within a second. No QB can function under those conditions..

This feels like the point where we all collectively say "yeah, duh", but damn is that music to my ears.

He makes Orlando Brown look like a pro bowler.

It would help if Kelce could block… but alas he cant’t.
