The question at hand shouldn’t be “Why didn’t Hardman get more snaps?”, it should be “Can Hardman handle less snaps without complaining?”.
I’m 99.99% convinced the answer is yes.
What’s very strange is I see fans of other teams complaining about how loaded KC is with weapons. But it’s not that hard to draft guys. Fast RB’s, WR’s, and tight ends are not that hard to find. I feel like Mahomes is way more rare than the Chiefs group of weapons. But I see a lot of opposing fans try to downplay what Mahomes actually is (he’s a unicorn QB). Jealousy is a stinky cologne.

It isn't easy to find a Tyreek or Kelce.
That being said, it's much, much harder to find a top-flight QB and a guy like Mahomes is a once-a-decade-or-longer find. [Reply]

2nd drop was a rocket while he was falling /diving, not an easy catch at all.
3rd one was a true drop
The first one was a pass broken up. Reed got credit for it in the box score.
The 2nd one was a drop. Tough catch but DRob has made those catches before. He should have had it.
The 3rd one was straight up Demetrius Harris. [Reply]

The Texans, Broncos, Raiders, Colts and other teams tried copying our formula and will see that you can’t replicate Mahomes.
49ers has a lot of weapons and an excellent running game and Jimmy Grapes was nowhere near Mahomes level. [Reply]

Not sure it was underthrown. Safety was gonna wipe out D-Rob on a deeper throw. Bigger issue I saw was Houston corner grabbed D-Rob jersey to help catch up to him. [Reply]

There was a blatant defensive hold on Reed at about the 20 yard line, maybe earlier in the route. It was before the ball was thrown. [Reply]

Everything said on here isn't a "defense" and it gets ****ing old when all people can do is bitch and moan about a ****ing DEFENDING SUPER BOWL TEAM.
If Hardman were getting it done in practice, he'd be playing. If Hardman could prove that he's capable of handling the game plan, he'd be playing.
Hardman is raw, he's not a great blocker, and the coaches put Robinson out there. If Robinson ****ing sucks so bad, it shouldn't be that damn hard for Hardman to beat him out, should it?
Yet here we are.
The fact that Hardman is still struggling to pick up our playbook and learn the route tree in year 2 is a bit ridiculous. We really passed on the likes of Metcalf and McLaurin for Hardman? Receiver will probably be a huge need next year because Watkins and Robinson will be gone and it's doubtful Hardman will be capable of being #2. [Reply]
