That still makes zero sense to me, because the Chiefs have Morris and Thuney more help and adjusted the play calling. I understand refusing to change your system for one guy, but that’s what we ended up doing anyway.
We essentially wasted any chance to develop Kingsley and made LG an abomination in the process.
It’s baffling to me that the Chiefs had one expectation for Kingsley but then made life easier on the guys who replaced him.

I've said as much as I feel inclined to say about how we handled the LT/LG thing down the stretch this year over in the Humphries thread.
My position is known and the cake is now baked. I don't care for what we did and in the end things couldn't have gone much worse at the worst possible time.
That said, I don't think Humphries would've changed anything meaningful. MAYBE had he not pulled his hammy and had those 6 weeks or so to get into football shape and get used to the offense and his teammates.
But he didn't. I think we got it wrong, but I don't think that's why we shit the bed.
