It's REALLY about the lack of explosive plays and ability to do something with the ball once the catch is made.
That's what this is REALLY about. These guys aren't creating. They're running routes just fine. They're catching just fine. Young guys ARE playing.
But aside from Rice, these guys aren't creating on their own. No one is scary with the ball in their hands. Toney CAN be, but it hasn't clicked yet.

I think Rice has real chance to be a difference maker at the end of the year.
All I am advocating for is to give ourselves a little room for error here.
Get one more guy in that is a matchup problem and then if Rice is ready and you have THREE guys that can hurt you in the passing game plus Mahomes/Reid and the defense we just kill people and are the first team to repeat as SB Champions in 20 years.
That's not so bad, is it?
