That's one thing I think a lot of the analysis about the Chiefs' offense without Hill is missing.
Reid and co. did a good job adjusting and making Hill effective in short and intermediate areas. But catching the ball through contact was NOT his biggest strength.
The adjusted passing attack, with these weapons, has more size and ability to make plays through contact.
If the threat of Hardman and Marquez Valdes-Scantling deep keeps teams in a 2 deep safety look (and I don't see how it can't), the additions of Smith-Schuster and Moore as the primary WR targets on the short- and intermediate routes is going to really stand out.
