But the entire league should be concerned about whether or not the offensive line will gel come Week 17.

By all accounts, Creed Humphrey is not only impressive on field but extremely smart as well, so I don't think it will take him any time to gel with the guys next to him. Morse had zero issues and I expect Humphrey will have zero issues.

The only person that should be even remotely concerning (and I'm stressing remotely) is Lucas Niang, but Niang has had the playbook and access to the terminology for more than a year. He hasn't been in full pads since October 2019 so his timing might be a little off to start Training Camp but I think he'll be fine next to a veteran, whetherthat's LDT or Long.

The bottom line is that no one should be concerned about whether or not the offensive line will "gel" come Week 1.
This. While they may not be at peak performance Week 1, woe be to any opponent come the 2nd quarter of the season.

Probably depends on what the D throws at them. They’d have more trouble with that Cheatriots than the Jets.

But yeah. Color me not worried. If Remmers is at LT I’m worried. This does not worry me.

I would expect it to take getting at least into the second quarter of the season to "gel". But that doesn't mean they'll be bad at the start. It'll just take them awhile to become the awesome, punishing force that will be rampaging through the playoffs in January and February.

this is dumb.

A non-issue.

You've got some pro bowlers in there with talented youngsters, full OTA's and training camp. They'll be fine.

In 2019, the OL played just 56 snaps together (typically a game sees around 65-80 offensive snaps) before the injury train hit the Chiefs.

The starting OL didn’t play as a unit again until week 10. And they were a little rusty until the playoffs, but iirc, they looked like they were’gelling’ week 15 (CHI).

So my guess is about 4-6 weeks.

The biggest risk to the OL not "gelling" is not even how many of them are brand new. It's how they get through the opening part of the season with regards to injuries.

If the Chiefs new OL gets through training camp and preseason uninjured, I think we'll see strong play over the first part of the season and dominant play as they hit the second quarter of the schedule.

Know the playbook. Know the protection calls. Communicate. Sprinkle in a dash of knowing the weaknesses of the guys next to you. That's all the gelling there is. Most of these guys are vets, they get it by now. The media acts as though you need a bunch of Einstein's out there to "gel." Just don't be a ****ing idiot that can't remember the playbook and that'll get you 90% of the way there.

This is the perfect explanation of when a coach says they gelled. This thread may be closed now.

So you are assuming they have to go one at a time. They can only afford one can of gel or this is some bonding ritual?
