The Chiefs need to protect the moneymaker or they are screwed. The moneymaker is now the highest paid player and going to remain that way for the foreseeable future. Do you spend money to protect the reason you can win a SB or risk his health and your season to spend more money on a WR instead of the OL?

We've also seen first hand that if mahomes doesn't trust his WRs he's more likely to hold on to the ball for a while or the beginning of the season where he was running a ton. I get there's plenty of debate about chicken or egg and if mahomes has enough to get rid of the ball quickly. But being able to quickly get rid of the ball goes a really long way toward helping protection.
