There sure as **** is lots of moaning in this thread about a rookie WR 3 games in instead of the actual problems.

A rookie WR that never did return punts maybe shouldn't be returning punts. I dunno, maybe that's why I hoped they'd keep Coleman on the roster all off-season much to my chagrin. Lots of CP brain trust lobbied for exactly what the Chiefs did. Well, eat the shit sandwich you wanted to be served.

Reid needs to tell Toub to fix it, and the rest of his horrendous special teams so far this season. It's been shit in most facets.

Rookie WR probably doesn't know the playbook well enough to get more snaps yet. It likely is for no other reason. It's probably not his ability to beat the guy across from him because he's shown some talent doing that in the preseason and even a little in the season. If he doesn't know where he's going every snap though, that's a liability. Reid would play him if he were gauged to be playable. Give him some time, he's not a ****ing failure yet just as much as he hasn't been your savior.

What else has failed? This ****ing offensive line, especially the tackles. Can't fix it this year, have to wait until the offseason. What can Reid do? More chipping to help, shorten up the drops, shorten the route tree, and throw in some play-action if they can ever prove to run the ball. That's probably it. It doesn't play into Mahomes' talents but it plays into not getting the guy killed and probably helps Mahomes at the same time in establishing some rapport with his receivers.

The RBs have also failed. See the ****ing hole and hit it. Reid needs to bench these guys if they can't see a whole wide enough for a semi to change directions in. They aren't always there, but these backs can't routinely miss the ones that are and would give this team a 30-50 yard spark they need sometimes.

Mahomes has failed at times too. He needs to start taking what the defense gives at times instead of trying to force the bigger play. Take those swing passes in the flats that will open up the middle of the field later. Take the 5 yards instead of pushing for 15 and missing. This team is built for death by 1000 paper cuts. It needs to figure the rest out. Mahomes isn't helping it. It sucks, I want to watch Mahomes throwing bombs too, but this team just isn't built for it routinely.

I'm so over reading constant bitching about a goddamned rookie WR. Not too many other rookie WRs out there looking too special yet either, especially 2nd rounders.
