Kansas City is trading its first-round pick Thursday night, along with three other picks in the 2021 and 2022 drafts, to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for Pro Bowl OT Orlando Brown and one pick in the 2021 draft and another in 2022, per sources.

Had he simply left them in their natural spots, we probably win the game.

The fact that he didnt move them back at halftime makes it even worse.
This. We could have kept Remmers at RT where he was doing a good job and then put Wylie or Ranking at LT and put Bell out there to help him. Instead we made both RT and LT worse and tried to rely too much on Mahomes being magic.
I wonder how much the gameplay and stuff changed or weren't as good as they usually are because of what happened to his son. That was a shitty 2 week stretch smh. I don't like re-watching the end of the Bills game cause I know what's about to happen to Fisher and the snowball that it caused. [Reply]

Didn't give them ANY help from backs/ends, either - left them out there...hanging like fat fucking worms on an even fatter fucking hook...zero adjustments... [Reply]
Both Brown and Niang have that weakness in their game. If Mahomes falls back on that tendency to float backwards out of the pocket or we face a team with dominant interior DL play it's going to be a problem. [Reply]
I think Brown is a more of a disrupter than a stopper compared to Fisher. He can push guys wide, so if Pat can just trust him and step up, it'll be OK. Could be some growing pains though. [Reply]
You know, this is gonna sound weird, but it might be to our benefit if Brown plays just kinda okay, where the Chiefs know about his tendencies and weaknesses but gameplan around them anyway.
That could mean that he wouldn't demand top 5 OT money and maybe instead be content with top 10 OT money. And the guy is still young, too. He can get better and learn the stuff that we want him to do better as an OT. [Reply]

Makes sense , Brown playing average instead of top 5 will make us better.
We sure don't want to have to spend any more money than necessary. Maybe he can just blow a couple plays and let Mahomes get wrecked from his blind side. That'll sure save us some bucks. [Reply]

Would you rather have a limited OT on a longterm deal that doesn't cost top dollar or would you rather let your equivalent 2nd round pick walk after a year, spend another 1st on a LT, and watch him fucking suck? [Reply]
