Please no.

We need to stop bringing all these shithead JAGs back and go out and try to get some guys who have potential.

Robinson
Dieter
Watkins(injuries)
Tedric Thompson
Darwin Thompson
Dorian O'Daniel
Daniel Sorensen
Ben Niemann
Alex Okafor(injuries)
Austin Reiter
Bryan Witzmann
Ricky Seals-Jones
Tanoh Kpassagnon
Nick Keizer
Deon Yelder

All those guys can hit the road. All JAGS that we need to upgrade with guys that MIGHT actually positively impact the game consistently.

I know, some people love Sorenson. But imo he has always brought as much negative as positive. He's a liability in coverage. The only position he should play is "centerfield" where he can use is solid speed to intercept the ball and come up to help with tackles.

Not saying DRob had a good game, because overall he didn't. He tried too hard to make a big play, when several times he should've just taken what the defense gave him. And the punt return was just not smart, whether I understand what he was trying to do or not.

However, he does come up pretty big, and has as long as he's been here with Mahomes. Just check any Mahomes highlight reel on YT; DRob is all over those things. Probably why Mahomes likes him.

And that play Redbled is referencing; Kelce was running a kind of rub/pick route for DRob there, which is why they were as close to each other as they were. Last season we saw Sammy running a lot of these kinds of 'over' routes for Kelce.

And I don't fault him for reaching out with the football; he's been doing it as long as I can remember, and I've never seen him turn the ball over doing it. He's simply trying to help the team. And pretty much every veteran receiver/RB/ QB tries to reach out for extra yardage, so I really don't see the problem. Some people just need something to bitch about I guess.

It's the same thing with going backwards. If that was a problem Andy or coach Lewis would've addressed it along time ago. Obviously they're letting the players try to make something happen because that's the overall philosophy of the team. Heck, we've heard Patrick say it often enough in those pre-game speeches, "Make a play! Play fast! Play aggressive! Make a difference! Dominate!"

That's the mantra of this team.

We've seen Hill, Kelce, Watkins, Hardman, Hunt when he was here, Damien, every offensive skill player on the team do these things time and time again. If we're going to roast DRob over an open fire for trying to stretch for an extra yard or try to make a move and gain a couple extra yards, then at least let's be consistent and burn everyone else for it as well.

Or, we can accept the fact that this team encourages each other to try and go the extra mile or inch, or reach, all in the effort to make a difference and win a game.

Solid take. The only thing I’d disagree with is Drob was reaching the ball out towards the sideline. I don’t believe he was gaining any yardage.

Yeah, I think he lost his spatial awareness and thought he was reaching upfield when he wasn't.

The only other reason I can think of is that he reached for the sideline so that if he did lose control of the ball, it would be out of bounds and still Chiefs' ball.

Either way, I really can't fault him for trying to reach for yardage, when he was probably taught to do it by his coaches and teammates. But he could learn to be more intelligent about when he does it for sure.

I think Mahomes was throwing it to Kelce.

Kelce turned upfield to avoid Robinson, Mahomes threw off his backfoot at Kelce's back, Robinson crossed the field and made the catch. I think Mahomes hoped that Kelce would turnaround and make the catch. Mahomes was about to get hit ... hard.

Nope. Watch the slo-mo replay. Kelce is never looking for a pass; he doesn't look anywhere but at the defender until after he passes DRob, then he stops and turns around to see the end of DRob's RAC.

Andy's been designing these types of plays for awhile now. And either Kohlmann or Krueger picked up on it last season and did videos analyses on them after the Vikings game.

I'll take your word for it. I haven't had a chance to watch the game again. That makes the throw even more impressive because he led Robinson with a lot of defenders around. Mahomes is so good.

Yeah, Mahomes is a god with his anticipation. Of course, the play design helps a lot, because by having Kelce run just over the top of DRob's route, the defenders have to not only avoid running into each other, but they also have to make a choice, and their instincts are usually to take Kelce/the most dangerous receiver. Whatever. It creates a tiny moment of hesitation from the guy that's supposed to have the under route right at the merge point between the receivers, which is all Mahomes needs.

Caught 6 balls. We going to bitch about Kelce and Hill not being perfect too?

Liability how? He plays like a 4th WR.

He makes dumb decisions that hurt the team. 4th receiver or not that shouldn't be excused. As a 4th receiver no one is expecting him to grab 10 catches a game for 100+ yards against #1 CBs, but he shouldn't make some of the bone headed decisions that he does.

Tyreek, Kelce and DRob. One is not like the others.

A guarantee you somebody could find spectacular catches from DRob. We all know he's not Kelce or Hill but you've got to do better than that man.
