Chiefs Travis Kelce is like a female version of Gronk - Page 6

Vietnam58 · 12-13-2015, 07:43 PM

True or false?

this guy has flashes of brilliance but is so inconsistent and makes alot of big mistakes. .

That 3rd down pass he dropped would have been caught by Gronk and Gronk wouldve dragged the defenders into the endzone.

Got two hands on a pass between the hashes and then managed to punt the ball whilst on the run right into a defender's shins as he tried to pull it in.

Saying a TE isn't quite Gronk isn't much of an insult. Gronk is ****ing ridiculous. Kelce is pretty damn good.

Holy shit, thats the pass their all up in arms about?

IIRC, that was a pretty crazy tough catch in traffic. I mean yeah, youd like to see him make it,but **** me.

It wasn't the most egregious drop of the game, for sure.

I thought he got hit and the ball knocked out, didn't even consider it a drop myself.

He completely whiffed on one during the game.

He's just frustrating.

You love his emotions and fire and talent, then he goes and just completely misses shit that, at this stage, he shouldn't be whiffing on.

That's what makes Whitten and Gronk the best. They don't whiff. Kelce needs to start making that happen.

When Kelce gains more maturity he will be the best TE in the league.

Mark my words.

Gronk will probably be broken by then or I revise that statement to 2nd best TE in the league.

This is CP.

Any pass that touches you, even if it's only a finger while a CB is draped over your back with the MLB waiting to lay a hit on you, should be caught.

I think his vanity will actually help him in this aspect.
I'll bet he hates embarrassing himself, and his need for attention will eventually be out weighed by fear of embarrassment/negative attention.

And I'm surprised Houston hasn't gotten all up in his ass yet.

That's one of the things I love about Houston. Dude called Berry out after coming back from cancer for not making play he thought he could have made.
Don't know how much longer he will let Kelce slide before making him his bitch.
Probably has refrained thus far because he plays offense.

Whiffed on what?

I think he probably should have made the catch, but people here are waaaay too hard on Kelce overall.

No they aren't.

He misses way to many easy things. Catches, blocks, etc. He loses focus. And that might be due to the fact that he is wanting/trying to make the big thing happen, but the first step is making sure you can actually do the big thing before trying to make the big thing happen.

I think he's got all the potential to be one of the best, if not the best. I like the guy a ton.

He just needs to pull his head out of his ass, focus on the now and then let the talent take over.

We got people saying they don't want to re-sign him, though. That's ridiculous. He's young and makes mistakes, but he's also one of the few actual talents on this offense.

Someone said that??

Probably didn't want to re-sign Houston either.

If he wants top 3 TE money I don't think it's worth it.

Pay pass rushing OLBs, lockdown corners, WRs, defensive linemen like Bailey and Howard, and be forced to overpay for OTs because that's the market.

Tight ends are a luxury item. We saw full well how paying to keep a top 3 tight end around worked out the last time.
