ChiefsPlanet - Chiefs *****The Xavier Worthy Thread*****

The 49ers SB doesn't happen either. Obviously there's WASP but lets remember that we had the 1 seed that year because of a goddamn remarkable play from Reek (and Pat) in the Ravens game.

Without that, we're playing some road games in the post-season and we certainly don't have that cake-walk of a schedule with the way the seeding would've broken out.

I'll never shit on Tyreek (now, anyway. I shit on him plenty back before the details on his college stuff emerged). That dude was an animal for the Chiefs and helped lay the foundation of the team as it presently exists.

I'd love to get a farewell tour from him someday and still think we will.

Nor will I ever criticize Veach for dealing him - we did what we had to do.

Yup. Reek flat out won us some of the biggest games we've played. Just due to his freak abilities alone.

I'd always welcome him back.

I’ve always thought that way. Also thought he could use an off season working with Russell Wilson, who could show him how to get some lift on the ball, and let the WR run under it.

I do miss the excitement of having Hill in our offense.

We’re winning more Super Bowls without him but ****ing A if that dude isn’t the most exciting player I’ve ever watched.. and that’s saying a lot from a fan of a franchise with Patrick Mahomes and Jamaal Charles. And Kelce out there itching to lob up a lateral at any moment lol

He was all we had. And despite all that, he was still making magic happen game in, game out.

And there's something awfully impressive about taking that ball in a pile of people, bouncing off a couple of them and then exploding like a missile out the other side of the pile and just pulling away from dudes.

Oh man that's easy. If we had the option of Pat and Jamaal or Pat and Reek it's always gonna be Pat and Jamaal.

That would literally be the most insane combo to possibly ever coexist in the NFL.

Setting aside Tyreek's legal troubles, my main problem with him was trashing Reid/Veach on the way out of the door. Those guys stood by him multiple times in his career when nobody else was willing to give him a shot.

And its a stinking travesty that he allows himself to regress to "normal".

I keep having this feeling that this is the week Worthy explodes!

By explodes, I mean at least one deep ball goes for 6. Maybe more.

Buffalo has seen the tape, they are likely sleeping on Worthy and have much to worry about with Kelce, D Hop and now Juju.

Chiefs are Underdogs, Bills will score points and Patrick is gonna want to out play Josh. What better way to do that then a couple bombs to Worthy after slicing the Bills up with short and intermediate stuff.

Am I crazy? I am considering starting Worthy on my fantasy team, thats how strongly I feel about this week with Worthy.

What say you fellas?

Yeah I posted in the Bills thread, I think this is the week they break out some of the nuanced routes Worthy showed in college but hasn't done with us yet.

I'm saying at least one nasty pivot route inside the 5-yard line where he is isolated on one side of the formation.

I like that! Gotta improve our red zone offense and that would be a great play to break out. Bills would never see it coming.

Not sure Worthy breaks out this year. I don't think it's a lack of route diversity that has held him back. Teams are not scared of Worthy but they really haven't had to be. Would LOVE to have a genuine deep ball connection with Mahomes develop, but a lot is going to depend on Mahomes

Don't forget Kareem in his prime, as well.
