Chiefs confident Sammy Watkins, Patrick Mahomes are “starting to sync”
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...rting-to-sync/

Wide receiver Sammy Watkins hasn’t caught a pass through the team’s first two preseason games and he failed to come back for a Patrick Mahomes pass that could have been a touchdown.

Coach Andy Reid noted that Watkins needs to do a better on plays like that, but he didn’t show much overall concern about how Watkins is fitting into the offense in his first year with the team. Reid said he loves Watkins’ “intensity on learning all the little, small things” and has seen that translate into good things at practice.

Offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy had a similar take and said that he’s seen signs that Watkins and Mahomes are striking up a strong relationship.

“When it’s all said and done, Sammy is doing a heck of a job,” Bieniemy said, via ESPN.com. “He’s doing a great job. He’s accepted the challenge because we’re not just playing him at one position. He’s accepted the challenge of learning all three across the board. We want versatile football players. I know everybody wants to talk about what’s happening on the field on game day, but I will say this: Their communication, their rhythm is starting to sync.”

Mahomes agreed with the coaches about Watkins making strides even if they haven’t shown up in games. That’s easier to sell in preseason than in the regular season, which leaves the Chiefs with a couple of weeks to get everyone in line.

That's not my point. I'm not even trying to hate on Watkins here. My point is that some people say a negative camp and preseason doesn't matter, which may be true. But why are such positive attitudes gained about players during this time while negative attitudes are not allowed?

At this rate he'll finish the season with ZERO catches for ZERO yards and ZERO touchdowns. The verdict is in. Jon Baldwin is a better WR. Grab your pitch forks boys we're storming arrowhead at dawn!

I don’t go to one extreme or the other in preseason. I mean it’s nice to see your starting offense put a nice scoring drive together, your defense get a 3 and out, and your young guys flash, but you still have no idea what you’re going to get in the regular season.

This is a unique situation. You have a WR in an offense that is by all accounts very difficult to learn at that position playing with a young/new QB who he’s trying to get on the same page with. And he could also be dealing with a hip injury that he’s trying not to aggravate.

I’m not saying it isn’t a little bit concerning, but the overreaction is absolutely absurd.

The same people saying we should’ve gotten a corner would be bitching about Trumaine Johnson, Kyle Fuller, or whoever getting burned in TC/preseason.

Did you people not see Kyle Fuller get abused by Emmanuel Sanders?

I’m not implying those guys are going to suck or wouldn’t help, I’m just simply pointing out that you’d be bitching right now either way. Those guys are not shutdown corners. Kendall Fuller is way better than any of the FA corners in 2018. Be happy we at least got him.

Who's bitching? We can't discuss that our big time free agents has underwhelmed thus far in the preseason?

I'd also say Trumaine is about as close to a shutdown corner as you're gonna get in free agency, and he cost 75 million. **** that noise.

But I guess I shouldn't be surprised as there was the same knee jerk reaction about the o line after the first game too smh.
i can tell you haven't been here very long. This place overreacts on everything

I would say you get as optimistic about some players as others have gotten negative about different ones. Not saying extremes, but not every concern about Watkins here is an extreme one.

I personally am not worried yet but I don't think some concern is an over-reaction.

There were a couple of corners you could have signed for that money sure, but I dunno what that really does.

I think a better argument would have been to spend it on a few DL maybe.

More importantly they need to develop some of their own CB's and DL that aren't costing free agent dollars.
