"The OL needs time to gel." Ok. How long does that take?
I'm a busy Chiefs fan on the internet, so I need instant and direct answers, please!

I'm as excited about the new OL as everybody else, but I keep hearing this warning from critics, "Ok, but your new OL will need time to gel." Teicher the Dickless even said we could be looking at 1-3 or 0-4 to start the season all because the OL will not have had time to "gel" yet! Seems scary!

I'm trying to think of massive single-offseason OL rebuilds in the past. The recent Cowboys rebuild in the early 2010s was entirely through the draft and took at least two seasons to construct. I think I remember the Chargers doing a full-on rebuild a bit later and being impressed by it, but in typical Chargers fashion is sort of just slowly collapsed and dudes got injured.

Is there a precedent for this kind of thing where we're virtually guaranteed a Week 1 OL full of starters who have never played next to one another in a game? And when they say, "They need time to gel" does that mean a few weeks? Just a game or two? Not until late in the season? And what's the severity of playing with an un-gelled line?

This is a dumb comment when it comes to straight man on man blocking. The time to gel comes from stunts and twists. They’ve got all of TC. I’m not worried.

I've got an un-gelled hemorrhoid, and can't gel it until I can get to the drug store in an hour or two. Is that dangerous? Is it more or less dangerous than an un-gelled OL?

I think the left side will gel pretty quick. Thuney is as proven as a guard can be.

The right side is a bit more of a question mark. Kinda depends who the starters are. LDT and Remmers could probably hit the ground running. Long and Niang would have higher upside, but neither played last year.

By all accounts, Humphrey is about as pro ready as any rookie center recently. Assuming he’s the starter, I don’t think it’ll take him long with a normal offseason.

If nothing else, I think the line starts out as good as it was for most of last season. By mid to late season, I think we’ll see this group start to stand out as one of the elite units in all of football.

My expectation is similar to the 2019 defense. Maybe sooner given its one unit within the offense instead of rebuilt parts at every level like the defense.

Either way, its resulting in a Super Bowl victory.

To be a truly elite unit, you have to have that cohesion and continuity. They won't have that right away, that's true.

But this is a well above average line, man for man. Early on, it will all be about winning individual matchups and they can do that.

It's kind of silly, they're really not mutually exclusive.

Goddamn, Teicher is a bundle of sticks. He should have to clean OBJ's taint with his tongue after every practice.

Does ESPN not realize a large portion of the Chiefs' fanbase can't stand Teicher? I intentionally never click his stories in the hopes that they eventually make a change.

I like to read articles about the Chiefs because I like the Chiefs. You don't have to be a fanboy to be a good team reporter, but Teicher's negative angle on every story is exhausting. I just don't get it. For self-preservation if nothing else I would think Teicher would take a hint.

Even unjelled this Oline is as good as the shitty one last year. We should be able to win with it while the players get used to each other. I'd say 5 games in, it will be ready to go. It depends on how quickly the Chiefs decide on who is going to start. I hope they go young and ride it out.
