Josh Gordon, Noah Gray, Jerick McKinnon have all been barely used while deadweight mediocrity Robinson gets more targets than all three of those players combined so far this season.
I also cannot for the life of me understand why we wouldn't use garbage time to see what we had in gore. What were we going to learn from darrel Williams in the 4q that we didn't know already? [Reply]

He played his 6 snaps throughout the game. Its not like they gave him those snaps all in the 4th quarter. In fact they even had him start the game. I guess just to tease him and the fans. [Reply]
I wish the best for Josh Gordon. But I have my doubts that he will contribute much to the Chiefs. At a time in which the Patriots did not have much receiving talent, the Patriots cut Josh Gordon. While I don't know the particular details, I thought the benching had more to do with Gordon not being able to get that much separation or route running than an off the field incident.
Patriots have had problems drafting really good receivers but their haven't been many relatively inexpensive receivers cut by the Patriots that really did well elsewhere. That being said, the Chiefs may have a defined role for him in which he fits particularly well. [Reply]
I’m not sure why Veach keeps bringing these types of guys in on offense. He must know by now Reid has no intention of working them into the system or game plan. He’s just going to end up disgruntled like McCoy and Bell and end the season being inactive for the last half of the year. Waste of everyone’s time. [Reply]

Yeah, this has been a huge disappointment. It's a bummer. We've all worked up an idea of how Gordon could be a real help to the O...I guess not. But, maybe it'll be after the bye week or something, though that'll probably be too late. [Reply]

According to the presser Andy thinks we were just a few fingertips away, so that was t garbage time. [Reply]
