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

Starting your LG at LT and playing a bad backup in his place is ****ing around too. ****ing around with inferior lineups is playing not to lose. That gets you best in the playoffs.

Now if Humphries comes in and we get the same level of play, you won't hear a complaint from me. But ill be quite pissed off if we're losing at halftime and then swap back to Thuney. |

Sure, we benched Moore and Toney, but its not like we had any breakout players in the postseason, outside of MVS finally not dropping passes. We simplified our playbook and played mistake free football to mask our deficiencies. At the very least, we went into the postseason with a plan and knew our identity. Playing musical chairs at LT while we're in the playoffs isn't having a plan. Pick a guy, be confident about him, and stick with him, is how I feel about this. If you feel you need to switch Humphries out mid-game, he shouldn't be the guy. And to be fair to the other side, if you feel Calidendo is THAT much of a liability and you don't trust him at all, go with Humphries. But my main point remains. Pick a guy. Don't pull this musical chairs shit in the playoffs. Last edited by Bl00dyBizkitz; 01-15-2025 at 03:03 PM.. |

I trust the Chiefs to do the right thing with their O-line. The good news is we have options, and a "floor" that is known with Thuney at LT. From my armchair, know-nothing perspective, I want Thuney because I've seen it work. But they could be looking at film and practice reps and saying things can be even better with Humphries. When it gets scary is when there is no viable option, like SB 55. We'll be fine.

Our offense last year did just enough. They at one point went 15-16 drives without a TD in the AFC Championship and SB. We need a higher level of performance this year and we have the weapons to do so.

It is possible our defense is lights out again but if our offense does better this playoffs we will have much more of a margin for error.

Looks like DJ is definitely not starting now. ChiefsBlitz is Nick Athan.

Wanya allowed over an 8% pressure rate in 4/10 starts at LT, so 40%. Thuney allowed over 8% pressure rate in 2/3 starts at LT or 66%. So the only conclusion I can come up with is that neither Thuney nor Humphries should be starting at LT and it should be Morris! |
