He should be coming back soon right? We have to get Wylie off the field guys. He’s been responsible for large number of Patrick’s hits and pressures. He just looks completely outmatched out there.
Hopefully Andy either uses Rankin or moves Remmers to RG when Schwartz gets back bc this is getting pretty damn bad

He got all his good snaps at LG last year. We would be asking him to play RG. Does that make a difference? I don't know. Sometimes it seems to make a huge difference. Other times it doesn't. If he was balls bad at tackle for Houston and good for a game or two at LG in KC, he could be one of those players who needs time to adjust to the other side of the line.
On top of all that, he hasn't practiced/played since midseason last year. And it was a serious injury at that. It's taken him this long to recover enough just to practice. We're expecting this guy is going to fix our OL problems?
Basically... he's a huuuuuuuuge ****ing question mark, and I don't know why people talk about him as much as they do around here. He's a promising player, sure, but that's all he is at the moment.
Don't know if he's any good at it. But he says he played some at both left and right guard in Houston. Sure he's a bit of an unknown but at least with Rankin and Remmers we have options that I'm guessing are better than Wylie.
