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

There is ample video evidence that they adjusted play calling to suit Thuney and protect him. You'd have to be blind not to see it. And no, we don't need Willie Roaf. Literally nobody has said that. We just want Joe Thuney to play the position he's earned a gold jacket playing. It's pretty ****ing simple. |

The best 3 offensive games we had this season IMO were with Thuney at LT. I said this before. It's like the Gannon/Grbac thing. You don't stop using what is working. For the "potential" that this other thing is better. Not right now. But we shall see. I'm not confident that DJ will be ready in two weeks and that at best he serves as a backup |

Like, did you think Wanya was featured in an offense full of Vermeil-esque seven step drops for the previous 3 months? The Chiefs depth of target has been low ALL SEASON.

Mahomes got the ball out faster because he felt comfortable in the pocket. Why is this even being debated? |

My impression just watching the games has been htismaqe is correct. It isn't really about depth of target, it's how fast the ball gets out. Much of the season it was like "holy crap this play is taking forever to develop". Seen a lot less of that recently.

The offensive scheme did go through an adjustment and it’s silly to argue otherwise.

Once he stopped getting hit so much he was able to quickly go through his reads and that's when the offense took off again |

Look, when your all-world LG is playing LT just good enough to prevent diaster, that's the definition of broken. And Andy obviously agrees or he wouldn't even be entertaining putting DJ in. If Thuney at left tackle is that good, Andy would put him out there instead of DJ. |

It has nothing to do with protection. AGAIN: Texans - fastest time to release since week 4, 2021 Steelers - fastest time to release ever, in his entire career You can say the play calling didn't change but you and Meatpeeker are the only ones that believe that. None of the talking heads out there from Keysor to Verdarame agree with you. |

Some folks want to see this as some indictment of Thuney and it just isn't. Nobody - NOBODY - is shitting on Thuney here. It's amazing he's been as credible at LT as he's been. What we want is the dude who's probably the best LG of the last 20 years - or at least the best for this team and how they want to play - to play LG again. And nobody is saying it's VITAL to anything that he does so. Only that it would be one hell of a luxury to have and that it's absolutely worth spinning the wheel and taking your chances to see if you have it. Again, the hyperbole AIN'T from this side of the argument. At all.
