Worth remembering the Chiefs offense was still very good without Mitch Schwartz at RT. They scored 38 points in a conference title game without Schwartz. It was the loss of Eric Fisher at LT that killed them in the Super Bowl right after that.
With that in mind, $20M per year for Jawaan Taylor at RT was a mistake. Rather have Orlando Brown at $22-23M per year at LT mixed with "whoever" at Right Tackle, and play the void year game if you need to do it to make the salary cap work.

Agreed, letting OBJ go is looking like more of a mistake now after this loss and after having no real solution to the position. Using his money on Taylor always seemed questionable at the time but it was hard to complain about it when we were winning SBs.
