Poop Have we reached critical mass with Reiter and/or Wylie?

Y'know what, let me back that up just a little bit.

Reiter doesn't truly suck in pass pro. He's not great (Morse was) but he's adequate. He's essentially poverty Morse. Morse was an elite pass protection C and an adequate run blocker. Reiter is an adequate pass protection C and an ABYSMAL run blocker.

So maybe Andy's simply making the calculation that ANY step back in pass protection for Mahomes is unacceptable. If you drop from adequate to below average in PP but step up from hideous to average in RP, that's not a trade Andy's willing to make.

It's the most 'reasonable' argument I can come up with. It's the best I can do if I'm trying to make the argument without resorting to "Andy's just being a stubborn ass...."

And it's not completely ridiculous, I guess.
