Hollywood Brown is expected to practice this week
 
Said he is most likely to play on Xmas but they are trying to target the Texans game. Depends on if he’s ready

When he was on the sideline on Sunday it was a good sign that he was getting close. Really intrigued to see how this offense operates with him involved.

stumppy 12-10-2024 06:10 PM

Can that POS play left tackle?

frozenchief 12-10-2024 06:10 PM

We need his speed because Patrick Mahomes appears to have about 2.2 seconds to throw before the tackles let their assignments get past them.

Gets us back where we were supposed to be from the start with Brown and Rice.

You have two legit man-beaters who can win overtop in Brown and Worthy, with two really good underneath zone-beaters in Hopkins and Kelce/Gray at any given time.

If he and Pat pick up where they seemingly left off, we can't understate the residual impact this could have. If Worthy goes back to not being the only guy teams worry about downfield, that alone is going be a big deal.

It does in this case because Brown is a quick winner who gets open at all levels.

If we can hit those easy buttons more often, we will find that the opposing defense gets tired quicker, and even the extended out plays won't look so laboring for our blockers.

If we can hit those intermediate quick shots, it would get defenses to lighten the box, opening up the running game.

They're going to need a running game and right now, it's suffering because teams are trying to force them into long distance passing downs.

It all works together. And all of it would help the o line.

Brown is a legit WR2/low-end WR1 in this offense. All offseason we heard (and even witnessed at camp) how in-sync he was with Patrick.

I mean, what would happen to the Lions offense without Jameson Williams right now or Philly without Devonta Smith? I don't think it's crazy to think Brown could be that type of impactful player in our scheme where dudes like him have thrived.

Not necessarily. If you have guys who cant beat coverage quickly with quickness and agility then you hold the ball longer.

RunKC 12-11-2024 09:29 AM

Signing Hollywood seems like an easy decision this Spring. He did nothing for this value this year. He won’t be super expensive and Kelce is coming off the books after next year at latest.

Makes too much sense to me

My only hesitation would be his injury history.

jjchieffan 12-11-2024 09:34 AM

Has he been moved to the 21 day window by the team yet? I haven't seen that reported yet. But, if I understand the rules correctly, he can't start practicing until that 21 day window has been opened.

Yeah, I agree with you both, so I'd say try to meet in the middle with another one-year prove it deal. Unless he has an incredible postseason (sign me up), he isn't going to get anything better elsewhere having to learn a new offense.

I agree. But he’s the best WR we can get to beat man coverage which we will desperately need. He wasn’t expensive either. Bet we could get him for a nice deal.

I like Hollywood or Elijah Moore to fit that role

ForeverIowan 12-11-2024 11:26 AM

To all the bitchers and moaners about how the offense has struggled this year. Yeah we lost our freaking WR1, WR2 and RB1 for the majority of the year. No other team in the league could have sustained those injuries.

Pacheco getting back up to speed. Hollywood on his way back. Call me crazy but I believe 100% in the law of averages. After a couple big drops DHop is going to deliver an incredible catch or two when it matters most.

Yep - it totally changes how defenses are currently playing us, IMO

Hammock Parties 12-11-2024 11:50 AM

Even converting one extra third down a game is huge for this team. Probably puts +3 or +4 points on the board.

The offense has been weird enough that it almost makes me wonder if they just chose to stick with the plan and hope the pieces come back.

Say you're running a race and you lose a cylinder. You don't take the motor out and replace it with a V6 -- you try to drive defensively and stay out front as long as you can to find the issue and repair it, then hope you've bought the time you need for the repaired V8 to get you the win.

Rather than re-work the offense, we just played tighter and hoped that the pieces would come back. Hopkins replaced Rice and that helped a bunch, but Hollywood returning would get the offense mostly back to what was envisioned.

O.city 12-11-2024 11:55 AM

They’re having trouble converting in the redzone bc they don’t have enough guys getting open.

Hollywood helps fix that problem in a major way

I am not purposefully trying to look ahead but I can’t help but get insanely excited about Rice and Worthy next year. They’ll both be comfortable with Patrick. Both complement each other so well.

Worthy has averaged 50 YPG the last month. Hes really coming on like Rice did last year.

Aside from the obvious LT problem, they need to get that RB talent to go with Pacheco bc we’ve seen how much that makes a difference in the small sample size with Perine and Pacheco creating explosive plays.

They really miss what Jerrick McKinnon provided. I know I keep beating that horse to death but it’s a low huge need to fill.

And btw, DHop has only one official drop on the season. And he's delivering a 120.3 PR.

Coincidentally I was watching highlights of the Bengals game earlier today and really noticed the pop he had after the catch. Dude got went North at a breaking speed. And he was kind of a load to bring down.

Our offense has really missed him in the short and intermediate.

Chief Pagan 12-11-2024 12:53 PM

I was a little worried about the hits Rice was taking from all the catches in traffic.

But Patrick trusted him and man the chemistry looked Kelce 2.0 out there at times.

Rice is the only WR on this team who can consistently generate YAC. He could make something out of nothing. Worthy has the speed but he doesn't have the vision or ability to break tackles that Rice showed last year as a rookie. Hopkins isn't running away from anyone and the other WRs are MEH. Brown is more of a speedster who can stretch the field. He's also a complete unknown in this offense.

They need to invest in WR again in the draft and obviously in the offseason. They won't have a choice since Rice and Worthy are the only WRs currently on the roster for 2025. Between WR and the D-line, we could see a large overhaul.

Rice was on pace for 1600+ yard season. Small sample in 3 games but he was balling. Looked to have taken that next step.

Not sure he’ll miss more than 6 weeks. His court date is this month so we’ll see.

He’d likely be on PUP for 6 weeks anyway dude to his injury recovery so I’m not worried.

But that’s why they need to get more weapons at RB and WR. With Kelce retiring soon and Worthy/Rice on deals, you can really afford to keep Hollywood for 2-3 years at a fair rate IMO. And if not him you can try for Elijah Moore who is similar.

We really do miss the weapon McKinnon was at RB and it shows. This is the best Rb draft in years and it’s deep. Would love to get one of those guys with one of our 3rd rd picks.

The NFL is not going to suspend him until he's active. If he's in PUP for 6 weeks and he gets a 4-week suspension, that's 10 weeks.

There's like zero chance Goodell let's his recovery and suspension occur concurrently. That's just not the way it works.

Nope. I thought the same as you for the longest time but they’ll do it at the same time.

In 2023 Michael Woods for the Browns was suspended and served it during his rehab time for an ACL tear.

They did it at the same time bc it’s about not getting a paycheck during the suspension.

In 2023 Michael Woods for the Browns was suspended and served it during his rehab time for an ACL tear.

This is the way.

Nah - the Chiefs just won't IR him.

Once the suspension is announced, if the Chiefs don't IR him, the NFL can't rightly PROVE that he wasn't able to play. Those will run concurrently at the start of the year.

He'll be back at full gallop by October at the latest.

Sounds too good to be true...

Why?

The NFL isn't suspending Rice to punish the Chiefs. They're suspending Rice to punish Rice.

And injured or not, he's not getting paid.

It'll work.

I'm not concerned about that at all. Practically speaking, it's not doable.

The only potential hiccup would be if the NFL intentionally slow-played a ruling and waited until after he took the field and THEN announced a suspension. But again - why would they do that? They're not out to dick the Chiefs over here and it will have been 18 months since the incident by that point. What possible benefit could that create for the league?

There's like zero chance Goodell let's his recovery and suspension occur concurrently. That's just not the way it works.

Again - you just don't PUP him.

Goodell gains NOTHING by slow-playing the outcome of an incident that had been out of the news cycle for over a year at that point. Announce the suspension in June when the news is slow and fewer eyes are on the NFL. The Chiefs don't put him on the PUP and then he serves it early in the year.

Well I hope you're right.

On a related note: how pissed are the fans of the 31 other teams gonna be if it happens like this? I can't wait. :D

I mean it wasnt even an ACL tear. Even without a suspension it's hard to believe he would have needed to be on PUP anyways.

Here’s the article on the Browns player. This has happened before which is why I think it wouldn’t be different for Rice
