These guys need REPS. They need to play through the uncertainty, they need to see what things are and get why they are in real time, in the games.
REPS.
You're defaulting to: things aren't what they need to be, blah, blah
and I'm saying YES, WE KNOW. And trading for Jesus Christ himself isn't going to change anything mid-season when the problem is lack of comfort with the pre and post snap reads that the receivers need to be making to get on the same page as Mahomes.
We don't have a talent problem, we have a familarity and comfort problem, and the only way to fix that is TO PLAY THROUGH IT.
The young guys' snaps all went up this second game. MVS is always going to get a lot of snaps, he has a defined role. Watson will get snaps because he knows the offense and can play any of the roles. Moore, and Rice, and even Ross had their snaps go up this game because THEY'RE LEARNING and will continue to do so.
Stop pissing yourself, it's going to be okay, and sooner than later.

Maybe just semantics, but by the mid-point of the season in an ideal scenario these two see their snaps decreased with the young guys all seeing more snaps. If that doesn't happen then I think 1 or more of the young guys didn't step up as hoped. There are only so many snaps to go around, and we don't go 3-4 wide on every play. Eventually MVS/Watson will need to see a reduced snap count for the young guys to continue to get more opportunities.
I understand it's way too early at this point to expect that, but by week 10 or so we should see things starting to trend in that direction.
