I think our revamped O Line more than makes up for them adding Jones. I say the gap is wider now than at any point in the Mahomes era...not just between the Chiefs and Titans, but between the Chiefs and the AFC as a whole. [Reply]

KC was truly never in the Julio sweepstakes. It’s nothing against his talent or their belief that he’s still a top WR; the financials just never made sense. Cash comes into play.

Getting a lot of Q’s from Chiefs fans re Julio.

As long as Kelce and Hill are healthy, yes. [Reply]

If our new Oline can improve our running game and give Mahomes more time, we should have a truly dominate offense. Mahomes has been running for his life, now he shouldn't need to nearly as much. [Reply]

Might be, especially if we have a strong running game. [Reply]
If Jones stays healthy, this could make the Tits one of the top five offenses in the NFL. Hard to put 8 up in the box to stop Henry if you have one on one on Jones. Healthy is the key. Can he stay healthy? [Reply]

See this is the point. You hear a lot of people say we're good with Hill and Kelce as if there's no possibility of either of them having a major injury. We've been really lucky with that so far, especially with Kelce. If Powell and Gray come through and if Hardman raises his game another notch then we're covered, but those scenarios remain to be proven.
That being said, I'm glad we didn't overpay for Julio, as intriguing as it would be to see a healthy Julio in our offense - key word being healthy. [Reply]

Until last season, Julio Jones never missed more than 2 games in a season.
Of course, he's 32 or whatever, and I think some predictors have projected that Jones is a high risk for suffering a serious injury this year, but he doesn't actually have a history of missing a lot of games in a season. [Reply]
