The chiefs need a LT who can run block just as well as pass block, if not better. Running inside could be crucial to punishing DE trying to beat us with speed from the outside. Chiefs need to get a physical RB in the draft too if they can.

Unfortunately this may be our most realistic solution.

Not really? It was still HEAVILY skewed towards the passing game.

Opening drive 9 drop backs by Stafford, 4 attempts by Williams. 2 of those rushing attempts in goal to go. Next drive all 3 are Stafford drop backs. Next drive is a 3 to 3 split. So we're at 15 to 7 split after the first 3 drives.

he better have the best offseason of his life because he couldn't even get on the field as the only left tackle on the team...

I think they left the decision up to Mahomes and Mahomes picked who he trusted.

Truth be told our oline looked pretty good for a good stretch with Thuney and Caliendo...as good as it has all year.

it would have been better with the 25th best left tackle in the league and having Thuney play LG

He’s got Joe Thuney length.

Jackson has less than ideal arm length, but he’s 6-7/335.

So while he might get long-armed, he has the mass and power to reset and not get walked into the QB’s lap.

I don't care what anyone says we just need a GOOD LT. Not some all world guy. And I do think that happens on here a lot where a guy gets beat a few times and people think he sucks.

We just need SOLID.
Even with just a solid LT again Mahomes is back in 40+ TD territory easily with this WR group, PPG goes back to 30+. I have seen a lot of good ideas on CP the last couple days on how to address the LT situation, Veach really needs to come through.

Yup. SOLID. Just a guy that is dependable and won't get Pat killed.

If we literally just had a SOLID LT and Thuney back at guard in the SB we win that game.

This is a really pivotal offseason because this has happened too many times. That LT spot needs to be addressed and then we HAVE to make the offense more explosive with a legit running back.

Maybe not a win, but more competitive. It reminds me of the scene in The Godfather when James Caan says: "I want someone very good to plant that gun in the toilet. I don't want my brother coming out of the bathroom with just his dick in his hands."

It has been the case too often with the LT situation in recent years. They were pretty fortunate this didn't lead to an early round loss the last couple years. They have won a lot of games through the years where it felt like the OL was getting whipped.

A LT and a explosive RB with good vision as this is a very deep RB class. These alone do wonders for the offense.

Yup. We need a GOOD and dependable left tackle, Rice back, and an explosive back that is also a great pass catcher.

The offense has to get some big plays back

If you can have a full offseason of Humphries and he's healthy....yeah that may end up being about your best option realistically.

He's a fine LT. Honestly, he was always pretty solid. He's not gonna be an all pro but if he can be a good LT for a decent amount of money, that's a potential value signing.

I think that has always been in the back of Veach's mind. It would buy time to develop a young LT, without having to rush the process. But man, it could BLOW UP again, so hope there is a better option. To me, its not really trying all that hard.
