Pro Bowl LT DJ Humphries [signed by Chiefs]
Does Veach give him a call?

He's not going to lose immediately at the snap often, he's too smart, but he's a Guard, not a Tackle. Come on now. The best case scenario is that Humphries is ready to go and gives us solid OT play. This is what we should all be hoping for. |

This is the play I find the most interesting of the lot.
Because that's slower developing. Hopkins isn't on a drag, but he's not on a quick hitter either. That route takes that full 3 seconds or so to develop. But what Mahomes did that he has historically been reluctant to do is step up rather than drift back. And man, you'd love to see him do that more, but it's just never been a go-to move for him. It seems like it's about 4th on his list of preferred options. And what almost blew it up anyway, despite Mahomes showing really nice feel for the pocket, is that Caliendo got absolutely abused. That's the sort of play that you could do a lot if A) Mahomes would step up rather than drift back and B) Thuney were in at LG instead of Caliendo. Presuming that Humphries can give you the rep that Thuney did there. And that play is a prefect representation of how Thuney wins -- he gets aggressive and controls the rep. Attacks the DE and gets walked backwards rather than get backwards and try to absorb the DE. Humphries CAN give you exactly that sort of pocket doing it his way. Frankly, his way is the better way to get it done. Does he have the stamina to do it in the 3rd quarter? Or on the 8th play of a drive? I just don't know. But I know that I'd be reluctant to try that play again given how badly Caliendo got beat on that play.

Because the Chargers DC is smaaaaaart. I'm confident we can beat Houston with 1/3 of our playbook. Andy's 15 scripted plays in random order may be enough. But that damn Chargers DC is gonna have something in his pocket if we play them and Thuney is the LT. He'll make things hard on us, IMO.

Hand Mahomes the Tecmo Bowl playbook and that'll get the job done. Houston doesn't worry me a bit. I'm trying out this 'hyperbole' thing to see how it suits me...

Admittedly, there's a LOT of masturbating going on in this thread.
It's gonna be what it's gonna be. Ain't shit we have to say that's gonna change that.

This is basically Joe Thuney getting into his pass pro stance:
