The T were definitely too far off the ball a few times but just like the WR if the line judge says your good it’s pretty hard to call it , except for that one ref last who called WR after he had checked in.

As Jason Kelce says, "it ain't cheating if you don't get caught."

I wonder if Taylor is going to tip the Jags off that we're going to throw about 65% of the time, or if they'll just figure that out from film study.

They are ready just not ready for the Chiefs to do it.

I hated this shit too. This is from the 2nd and 3rd play of the game on offense.

He's lined up exactly the same way on both of those and if you draw a straight line from his head through Creed, then it runs through Creeds hip. The angle ****s it all up.

OP is a mouth beating inbred.

Looks like the NFL has informed all 32 teams that they will be enforcing this rule much more strictly now. How lovely.

I bet they enforce it for Taylor and not Lane Johnson.

They just let Lane Johnson do it.

Don't care about where he's lining up or even if he gets called a couple times for false start. Just block better and more consistently than Wylie. That's all we need out of him. Little more worried about Smith, tbh.

I'll be honest, I didn't really notice where Smith came up short against the Lions. I've forgotten where he ****ed up, and yeah, I know he probably did in a few spots, but I don't remember thinking all game, "Man, Mahomes has zero blindside protection. This sucks."

Watching the A-22 a few days ago, Smith had some bad reps. Not a ton, but definitely some that were pretty bad. It was Week 1, so not super worried about it, but it's got to be a bit of a concern for this game.

Seemed like he was Jekyll and Hyde but he was mostly very very good in pass pro. He has a few complete shitty plays but from the plays he did well he absolutely is going to pwn fools. I dont watch run protection cuz I really dont give a shit about that so no clue there.

Yeah, I only saw the run-blocking in the first run-through. Wasn't very interested in how we run-block, so skipped all that the next two times through. Then JT's QB School edited out everything but the passing snaps, and never looked back.


But that rep when Smith throws his leg up to hook the DE as he gets bowled over backwards was a really bad rep. Probably his worst rep of the game, and nothing else looked anywhere near as bad, but you know, there were some noticeable mistakes made in that game.

This ****ing guy…..

Disappointed with him today.

He's not doing himself any favors, but right now it's pretty obvious the NFL has targeted him just to say, "Look, see??? We'll do whatever Chris Collinsworth says to satisfy the dipshit fans who don't know anything and believe whatever it is the jackasses on TV tell them!"

Might be worth the re-set that Andy gave him when they brought in Winnebago

It was never a problem when he was on the other team. Complete dog shit.

I'm not seeing what made the Chiefs brass think that this guy was worth $20M per year. I would rather have kept Wiley.

Hey dolts…. That wasn’t a ****ing hold. He is being targeted.

Refs are just out to make an example out of him so everyone will shut the **** up about his alignment and get off

they flagged the shit out of him today to make a point

Really want to know who exactly was behind the shit NBC pulled last week. They screwed us big time.

All those reeruns who had no issue with him cheating last week...

Didn’t say it was a hold. Just said I was disappointed in him today. Clearly Andy is as well with him coming out.

Just ****ing line up right. The holds yeah, questionable. But it should be easy for him to just adjust to them potentially calling the alignment penalties.

Taylor only had 3 false starts all last year, zero lining up offsides

Ooooooorrrr... the guy has played that way his entire career and nobody has said anything.

I'll bet Lane Johnson would be getting the exact same treatment if he got targeted like Taylor

Ok? Then adjust. You're a professional player. You can't be as effective if you kind up 6 inches closer to the line?

Yep. I bet that f*** Zach Taylor had Collinsworth do it.

Dude

Walk home from J-ville??

Brilliant contract so far, making $25 million next year?

Lol at everyone telling me it was fine because he was doing this shit all last year.

Wow. What a disastrous performance. I feel bad for the big fella. It’s in his head at this point. Reminds me of Toney last week.

They're just picking on him because of all the outside noise. Something professional officials AREN'T supposed to do. I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like it.

This turd makes me miss Wylie, especially with how cheap Wylie was. And I hated Wylie.

Would you rather pay Wylie $8 million per year he got from Washington? Or Taylor in the 20-whatevers?

Ass, pure ass

I'd rather have Wylie, especially if Taylor is going to be a Jonah for this team.

No ship wants a Jonah.

Barry Richardson seems good compared to this guy.

Taylor will be fine. The refs got their "see look we call penalties on Taylor!!@!" game so now everyone will stfu about it. Taylor knows his limits now. Should be a lot smoother going forward. I hope...

Offensive line play is all about muscle memory. They don't just "adjust" in the middle of a game.

Yes he bears some responsibility, but the refs were going after him on every damn snap for ticky tack horseshit

He's been playing that way his entire pro career, but only NOW is it some big ****ing problem... hmmm, I wonder why?

Rough game by him today but he was kind of getting picked on by the refs for simply how he's played football his entire NFL career. Thank you Kris Collinsbarf

Hoping the NFL got it out of their system today

Lining up is absolutely something you can adjust mid game. The presnap ticks? Probably not, but making sure you're lined up right is the easiest adjustment you can make.

And he did change that? So wtf are you on about?

And he only got called for lining up wrong one time. All of his other penalties were either holding or false starts. One of those false starts and one of the holding penalties were legit.

We knew all week he was gonna be targeted. Matt Verderame even reported that 3 days ago.

I made that initial comment after he got penalized for it...

You're a ****ing reerun

Taylor is under the James Webb Space Telescope right now

He's just going to have to play the position according to the rules I suppose.

Yet Lane was allowed to false start all game on Thurs. The league is a ****ing joke

Can't believe people crying because refs did their job. Maybe Taylor should try

He did last year doing pretty much the same thang

Lane Johnson has been doing it for years.

Eat a pie made of dick sauce, twerp. We all know Taylor bends the rules but up until this point he's done it for a long time and so have several other right tackles. It was never a problem but now that it was all over the media they call 6 penalties on him. That's ridiculous.

Yeah blame the media

Pussy he's a chief going to be playing in a lot of big games what does he expect

Florio...Muy gosh, the Chiefs dont pay their players
Thursday night football...wowza, Taylor is in the backfield or false starting
Theres a Gleaming Theme boys
Whats next NFL?

You are a candyass jackoff, shut the **** up

Right now, Jawann Taylor SUCKS!

Get yur head out of your ass!

They were picking on Taylor and the Chiefs after last weeks commentary. We're just going to improve every week.

The Bears next week? Let's stack some wins!

The NFL has let tackles jump early and incorrectly line up like this for years because it helped the offenses. Now the Chiefs started doing it, they crack down. It's absolutely horse shit to do it during the season.

"The next time someone throws a sidearm pass, that will be 15 yards and loss of down."/NFL

WTF? That's probably the weakest insult I've ever heard. Kudos.

People thought Taylor was being brought in to play LT but think it’s going take half a season for him to move up an inch and move with the ball

That said, felt like the NFL made their point today so I’d be tempted to keep playing the same as he always has and see if it continues next week

Veach is a great GM but between Orlando Brown and Jawann Taylor, he appears to misjudge Tackles.

It's not easy to find one in the draft where we usually pick at and Orlando Brown was his backup plan after Trent Williams declined our offer.

I do agree that Taylor has not appeared to be a good investment as of yet but hopefully they can coach him up.

NFL is going to have to be consistent in enforcement. There are tackles across the league that line up as deep/deeper than Taylor. Not as many work to hit the snap as perfectly as he does, but there are some.

If I were the Chiefs, I'd have a tape made to send to the league if the enforcement is inconsistent.

Lane Johnson was false starting almost every snap in the Super Bowl.

He was getting away with it in Philly’s game on Thursday as well.

The Chiefs won more Super Bowls with Orlando Brown at LT than Buffalo has won in their entire franchise’s history.

So maybe you should sit out this conversation.

Well apparently it's cheating then

Collinsworth is somewhat to blame for that. Pencil-neck bastard made a big fuss about it on TNF which likely left the league no choice but to make it a point of emphasis for the officials.

Chris Collinsworth can suck a bag of dicks.

I would bet heavily that he already has.

Taylor is so bad that I miss Wylie.

Taylor getting paid 2.5X more money than Wylie. That does not feel like a good trade for KC at the moment.

Taylor will be fine. All of these hot takes are whiney bitches.

Yes, he was targeted by the officials today. That doesn't mean that he all of a sudden can't play. He'll be fine.
