Clyde is being sold below guys on our practice squad (mOrE GOre!!). The Mayocks of CP are coming out of the woodwork to revisit the draft and the 'wasted' first round pick on a RB. He's slow. He's unathletic. He has no vision. He can't pass block. He completely sucks.
I'm not sold on this narrative.
Fumble was inexcusable but highly atypical. Guy has struggled with vision this year. But he flashed early last year. He's still figuring out this OL and the Chiefs are still figuring out how to use him in this system. He was named the MVP of the best college (spread) offense I think we might ever see. He has talent. Just needs to re-find his groove.
I'm not giving up on him as we've seen Reid do more with a lot less. And I think Clyde is primed to turn it up from here.
So, not a homer take. Just a take that's being less pessimistic after a difficult loss. Let this be a safe space for those who haven't given up on Clyde.

The offense has not done a great job on running plays, but they have had less snaps overall because of the way the games have played out.
This idea that a fan can watch a game from the normal camera angle and figure out what would happen if the ball carriers moved a little differently is nonsense.
Give it a break already. Nobody agrees with you. If you want to believe CEH is good, that's your choice. But you're not going to convince anybody else. [Reply]

I've lurked here for some number of years Tex, and I've yet to see you with a bad football take. You, sir, are the man, and more importantly, you are right. [Reply]

Why did Clark Hunt think he could teach all mid westerners about morality? That's my complaint. Hunt was a chance for Hunt to teach all us unwashed mid westerners about morality. I'm still mad about it. Kareem should have stayed on the team. This isn't the ****ing peace corpse this is football.
Clark Hunt is not a person I trust. I think he's a stooge, and I think the Kareem Hunt "sweep the leg but miss" incident is nonsense. [Reply]

Lurking is unquestionably your strong suit. (BTW, it's not the "peace corpse." It's the "Peace Cadaver.") :-) [Reply]

I couldn't stand by and have this entire forum claim that Priest Holmes was a product of his offensive line. That was your bad. You bred me. And I'm here for good. [Reply]
