No, Mostert is not Christian McCaffery. But both he and Achane are faster than McCaffery in pure sprint speed, and they couldn't get shit going against KC on outside zone stuff in either of the games the Chiefs played against them.
I'm not sure a guy who isn't practicing because his toe is messed up is going to be a dominant in-line blocker in 3 days, but sure, Kittle is generally a great blocking asset and Trent Williams is the best LT in football.
KC still has performed consistently well against this scheme and has very rarely been dominated by it, despite predictions to the contrary.

Purdy still outplayed Kermit the Frog this season.

I watched Baltimore-San Francisco against last night. Purdy was unlucky on one of the tipped INTs (the second was good defense that popped the ball up) and also got lucky on two INTs that were not - one that hit a Ravens defender in the facemask, and another that was thrown behind Samuel and should been an INT.
KC's defense is more like Baltimore's than anyone else, and few DCs are better at creating confusing looks than Spagnuolo.
That's not a good combo for a QB that has been programmed to follow a specific read progression and trust it (which all Shanahan QBs are programmed to do).
