Offensive Tackles
 

I'm not going to overreact as it's only been 2 games but boy has their play has been meh at best. I'm not too worried about Taylor as I am Smith who looked like a declining player in Tampa. Everyone says it was because he was injured and maybe he still is but this has to get better if we're going to repeat as champs

I feel like they played poorly, but it was more about them needing to learn that blocking for Mahomes is different than blocking for any other QB in the league.

Jacksonville has some really good players on defense, and I feel like Reid and Nagy could have chipped more.

But, yeah, overall the offensive line didn't play great today.

Mahomes makes OTs look worse with his play style

Smith showed great hands and instincts on his catch!

We should put him on punt returns.

There is truth to that but he also makes them look good by not taking sacks.

This is a threadworthy discussion to be concerned about.

Smith might suck and Taylor may have his competitive advantage officiated away.

Not ideal.

I've been saying this for years.

I would not blame Mahomes for any of the penalties on those guys today. Patrick ain’t perfect, but constant false starting is not acceptable for an OL with a $20M salary.

Eh….that cake was baked with the nfl coming down on it

Some of the issues were with creed today too

I didn't pay attention to Taylor in Jacksonville just read how he was a solid player. Has he done the false start thing his whole career?

Sadly, yes. You can find reddit threads fretting about it from 2021.

I was hoping that I was wrong, and that the OTs did play a little better than I thought I did when I was watching the game. Apparently not.

Oh boy. And it took them several years to finally do something? Such bullshit

Regarding the OL, even Thuney had a penalty today (rare) and it seemed like every snap from Creed was below Mahomes’ knees.

Weird day.
