Per PFF, Patrick Mahomes was pressured 20 times yesterday. Only 2 of them were put on Mahomes’ shoulders, neither a sack.
Wylie was credited with 9 total pressures and 3 sacks allowed. Brown ended with 7 total pressures allowed. These guys are a legit problem right now. [Reply]
Is Eric Fisher done? I assume that he must be since nobody signed him. But I would take him at right tackle if he would sign here. Couldn't be worse than Wiley. But, I doubt that he's an option.
I saw that the Chiefs converted some of Kelce's salary to bonus to create cap space. Maybe Veach is working on something. [Reply]

He's done. And according to a family acquaintance, he's pretty content with that fact. [Reply]

Sure, but that sample size of "competent play" where Reid was scheming around him also shouldn't have been enough to negate the truly awful tape he'd already put up to that point. At best he should've been a backup swing tackle. [Reply]

With the benefit of hindsight, Petit-frere was taken just 7 picks after Bryan Cook, and is starting for Tennessee at RT j/s [Reply]
Have Pat stand further away in shot gun, do 9 step drops. Run two go routes each play and just chuck it 50 yards everytime. You'll complete 1 out of 3. Youll get DPI on 1 out of 3. And youll get picked off on 1 out of 3. I would pay good money to see a coach try something stupid like this. [Reply]

Technically, he is the backup.
Niang is/was the starter but he's always fucking hurt. [Reply]

Nah. He's injured. He was the starter before that so again, technically Wylie is still the backup. [Reply]
If Veach and Co went into the offseason with Niang pencilled in as the starter at RT with Wylie as the backup that's a much much much much much worse look than ANYTHING Veach has done here prior. Thankfully we all know that isn't the case given the severity of Niangs injury. Wylie was brought in as the starter in 2022. [Reply]

So then what do you think will happen when Niang is healthy? Will they just keep blindly throwing Wylie out there despite the fact that he's one of worst in the league?

I doubt it.
Can we sneak an extra fat guy on the field? [Reply]
Daryl Williams is still sitting out there, guy started every game for the Bills the past 2 years. Moved to guard during the year last season but played RT for his whole career before that. No way in living hell you can tell me he wouldn't be better than Wylie. Bobbie Massie is out there, started 13 games for the Donks and had a 70.0 PFF rating last year. I know PFF is trash but I'm sure that's better than Wylie.
I mean at this point you have to do something, right? I just can't fathom sitting and watching this film if I'm the coaches and saying "This is fine, we'll be fine." [Reply]

They probably relegate him to backup since he's already proven multiple times he can't handle full time starter duty. [Reply]
