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]

If that's the case, tell Veach to go sign Daryl Williams. He's instantly an upgrade.
Also, there's no way you can convince me that Geron Christian would be worse than Wylie. I've seen the guy play a few times, he's way more athletic and a far better pass blocker. This comes down to Andy being comfortable with Wylie because he's familiar with him and he knows the system.
You could be right, though, we're not the ones in the locker room. Maybe he's been awful in practice, but again, if that's the case you have to go find someone better. Trade, free agency, whatever. You can't just let this happen to Mahomes all year or something really bad is going to occur. [Reply]

Why do I feel like Lucas Niang will be activated, play in his first game and 3 minutes in he will be reinjured? :-)
Some guys (SEE CHARGERS ROSTER), are just broke dicks. [Reply]

Maybe playoffs? He blew his knee out late last season and it's a good full year of recovery. [Reply]

I looked at reports to see what his status was.
Lucas Niang had a patellar tendon tear in the Bengals game on Jan 2, 2022. Of course, all injuries are different, but the projected recovery timeline was 6 to 8 months. It is now close to 10 months since the injury. Not sure when the surgery was actually performed.
Last week in media reports Andy Reid said this about Lucas, “He’s close but not quite there yet. He’s working through it but he’s not ready to do that.”
Wylie is having a great year considering that he is blocking guys who get paid 8-9 times more AAV than he is paid.
Mahomes escapes most pressures.
At least we have a lot of folks that do not know shit about tackle football as it is played in the National Football League coming up with solutions. [Reply]

Hopefully he will be back soon.
When you weigh 330lbs the recovery timeline is longer. [Reply]
Wylie isn't good, but is Niang better? Niang started the year last year, and Wylie took over in the Washington game, right? IIRC, Mahomes trainer was Tweeting that Wylie was playing much better than Niang or something like that. Not that Mahomes trainer has necessarily a keen eye for that, but one has to think perhaps Mahomes hadn't been that impressed with Niang's performance. [Reply]
