A lot of that was because of Pat but I dont buy the stat one bit. Id like a stat on contact after the ball is out. Pat has little fear and will thread it in on the run before taking the shot. There is a point with any QB when those shots eventually take a toll. This line needs to be better and Andy owes it to his superstar to protect him. If anything should convince you rewatch the AFC championship who was the best oline that game. The difference was night and day a old TB could stand in pocket. When they wanted to run they blew open holes and got to the second level.

And I'm sure we'll get that.
Just not THIS year.

I think we're a year away from the OL investment.
I think the big need this offseason is to get the defense to a respectable level. Then you have to start restocking the OL next year. Then you'll need to start restocking playmakers the year after that. |

We'd see more improvement from the O-Line by drafting a LT than any guard or center could provide. There's a decent amount of inside guys that are interchangable already on the roster.
What I really want is a fatty who can replace Fisher but that's not happening. Fisher has about two years left in KC. I think we'll just get another 'jack of all trades master of none' type in the lower rounds for depth. However next year, it's time to look at LTs in the upper 3 rounds.

Yip. Rotate in-rotate out. And it would be nice if we could begin a practice of unloading "stars" before their expiration date hits as well. Start being on top of situations instead of racing to catch up, or wasting precious cap on paying players because "well, who ELSE are you going to get"? I hate that shit.

I think you have a point somewhat, in that I liked the potential shown by Reiter and Wylie and they seem pretty good in pass pro. I disagree with you on LDT and Schwartz, those guys have been money and the injuries from LDT aren't the kind that you think maybe he is injury prone - sometimes you just get a broken leg in the trenches, can happen to anyone. The Patriots and Ravens beat the line with stunts and unusual blitzes. Some of that is on better communication by the line where there's nothing you can do if you need to keep swapping guys due to injuries and some of that is Mahomes needing to develop in terms of line calls. I don't think overall talent on the line was the issue in most cases. Mahomes also invited a lot of pressure on himself that was nothing to do with the line, he could also improve there. That's probably the overall biggest difference to his health. I do think the Chiefs need to add more depth, G is okay but Tackle and Center could use some late round picks (5 or later) to develop. |

Cameron Erving was drafted out of Florida State as a center. So Reiter, Murray, and Erving can compete for center position. Maybe playing center would cure Erving's tendency for moving too early?
Find a backup LT and develop him as a starter. That player probably needs to have played a lot of LT in college and have the required size, foot quickness, and arm length that you look for in that position. Looking at the Chiefs current roster I don't think Kahlil McKenzie, Jimmy Murray, Andrew Wylie, Ryan Hunter, or Pace Murphy really fit the LT profile. So draft the perfect future LT and find him in the later rounds. Not an easy task. |

Not I. But I was not a fan of either player for that matter. Vet who was washed up or an athletic melt down who wouldn't cover or tackle but just only jump routes.
If Ford doesn't have ADD at the end of the game we are in the SB without your boy Peters. Think about that for a second. |
