Ultimately it's one game, if Reid and company believes he can handle the position then I'd give more chances

The only way Kingsley can improve is by playing. I'm sure Reid and co. will make adjustments.

I’m no Mitch Schwartz but yeah, he’s definitely right. It’s all technique.

He has some bad habits to break. Hopefully he can do it by the back part of the season.

Agreed.

Mahomes just isn't his usually Mahomes-ian self against Anarumo, for whatever reason. He's one of the few guys that seems to be able to scheme Mahomes into looking incredibly average, and that's not even taking into account that the entire Bengals team brings it against us like it's the last game they'll ever play.

I think (hope) Kingsley will bounce back from this. It was a learning experience for him today. Him and the coaches.

This all day. He's a rook in his second NFL game ever. He was bound to have a 'welcome to the NFL game,' and this was his first. He needs to work on his technique, but he looks like he has the tools to be successful. He just needs more time. Let's just see how he does over the next 4-5 weeks before we start panicking.

he's my adopt-a-chief so I'm riding or dying with him, for the next 2 games and if it's all like that, I'm calling Smith. I think he'll be fine

Trey has always given us fits, even in the Fisher era.

I'm not defending Kingsley, he looked rough today, but Hendrickson has a habit of making LTs and RTs rough depending on which side he lines up.

He'll (Kingsley) be better I think.

Snore, let me know when he causes a loss

Mahomes averages 250 yards and two td's versus Amarumo.

1. The first game he built a double digit lead and Spags's defense let Jamarr Chase kill us. We lost on a last minute field goal.

2. Second game Pat tore them to pieces first half, built a huge lead and then played a poor second half where him and Reid failed to adapt to Amarumo's changes. 275 yards, three td's and two ints

3. Third game Pat was dealing. Put up 223 yards and TD, plus he ran in a TD. We were in control until Kelce fumbled.

4. Fourth game Pat lost all of his receivers and was playing on a high ankle sprain. He still found a way to get 326 yards, 2 td's and rushed in a crucial moment to get the foul for the game winner.

5. Fifth game he got 245 yards and a TD playing with receivers with the worst drop rate in the league.

6. Today he was poor by his standards. 150, two td's and two ints.

He tends to put up 25 points on Amarumo on average with 250 and two td's. I'd say that's acceptable tbh.

I like his attitude. The kid will be fine. I wouldn't mind giving him a little time to learn, but game action is probably the best teacher there is.

Would love for Schwartz to come and mentor him 1 on 1. It seems like there is a ton he could teach Kingsley.

This is part of the growing pains for him and he should improve as the season goes on. Not saying that he doesn’t need help until then, but it’s hard to expect too much from a rookie 2nd Rd LT in game 2. KC will not be in a position to draft an elite, blue chip, plug and play LT for the foreseeable future. They have to develop from within which is what they are trying to do. Let’s not forget that Fisher struggled for a good while before things changed and he was picked 1.1
