That's only partly due to Alex, though.
In Philly, the Eagles had a number of WRs there for a fairly long time that knew the system and didn't need to start from square one each year like has been the case in KC.
Just listen to Alex talking about exactly that.
Reid's offense is the same as its been for quite some time and he has the largest playbook in the league...very tough to learn. That's why the continuity Alex talks about in this is so important and why it's silly to dismiss it.
The backs know the offense.
The OL (except Schwartz and the rook) knows the offense
3 of the top WRs know the offense
The QBs know the offense (even Hogan, according to Reid)
Alex and the offense should be able to "hit the ground running" in 2016 and use the new guys as wrinkles in the offense they can add gradually...by years end I expect a really really fun offense to watch.
