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

Any defensive end worth his salt in terms of converting speed to power has driven Thuney straight back into the pocket quickly. It absolutely has affected plays. Rousseau isn't as good at doing that as many of the DEs we've faced with Thuney at LT but it's not like he's completely incapable. A 6'6" 330 lb true LT just anchors far better against that than a 6'4" 300 lb LG can ever hope to.
Am I concerned Thuney being at LT somehow wrecks our gameplan for this one or any game in particular? No, I don't think that. Do I think we'd be better off with someone else at LT? Only with respect to the net gain that includes Thuney being at LG. I just haven't seen enough of an uptick in production to warrant making the line worse overall and Thuney at LT does exactly that. It also has not made Pat play better. |

It really boils down to whatever Andy and Mahomes prefer. If we wanted to lean on the run against the smaller Bills D line, I think it makes sense to use Humphries and slide Thuney back to guard. However, if we're planning to pass more, I think Thuney at LT is ok. I hope we dial up more roll outs and screens regardless.

Mighty Gregory Rousseau has 3 sacks in 8 playoff games, 2 coming in his last two playoff games
He has NEVER sacked Mahomes in the playoffs. This is the dude I'm supposed to be afraid of? ROUSSEAU!!!!!!!

Nobody told you to be afraid. You use that word all on your own.

Seems like our line struggled with Buffalo last year in the regular season, but not in the playoffs.
Hopefully Sunday will be the same |

You actually think that's what this discussion is? Are your sensibilities that easily offended? Are you a teenage girl?
