This guy was open all night. Protection issues prevented him from going off like Watkins in Week 1.
In particular, this guy was open for a deep bomb in one of these, with great separation.
I think we got a Watkins replacement.
Chiefs fans may want some good news this week, so let's talk Byron Pringle. Stepping into Watkins' role on short notice, he saw the 2nd most snaps at WR and looked the best

We shouldnt worry about why Hardman isnt getting robinsons reps, Hardmans a clear back up for Reek. We should however wonder why pringle isnt stealing more of Robinson snaps, even though robinson looked competent for a change. [Reply]
Pringle's first catch last night reminded me so much of Watkins with how he finished the play. Most receivers would have just stepped out of bounds but he lowered the shoulder and tried to punish some guys. And then his awareness to get open on the second one was fantastic! [Reply]

Calvin Johnson really didn’t though. Dude’s career TD totals were waayyyyyyy behind his yardage numbers. He was never truly a productive red-zone threat. [Reply]
