The separation stats are a bit deceiving for a player like Skyy. For example, a play like this will skew the fuck out of separation data when you don't run that many routes in a game. Think this is why him and Hardman have a lot of separation yards per route run and why Hardman and Rondale Moore were in the top 5 last year despite Hardman being the 2nd worst at air yards per completion and Moore being the worst at it.
I still think that Skyy will be an important weapon for us and we need to use him a lot more, but that stat is just a reflection on the type of plays we're having him run so far. Hopefully Andy puts him in and has him run more traditional routes soon. But yeah I knew there's just no way he would average 15! feet of separation and Mahomes just missed him. [Reply]

Of course it's a small sample size and of course it's reflective of the play calling.
That still doesn't negate the fact that saying Moore can't get any separation is patently false. [Reply]

looks scared out there. .
imagine Pickens on this squad
Lol. As soon as I saw DTVietnam I was like, "cue being a massive crybaby tard about George Pickens in 3... 2... 1..." and sure enough, there it was!
Ya'll think Pickens would be getting more snaps and looks if the Chiefs drafted him? We may as well have drafted T. Boone Pickens instead to play WR! [Reply]

He's run what, 2-3 plays like this all season?
Matt Lane and Kent Swanson have been saying since week 1 that the guy is consistently getting separation and constantly open after watching all-22, and they aren't basing that off of plays like this.

Slim Pickens is a better route runner than T. Boone. [Reply]

I remember that. I thought it was Brad Cottam or Tony Moeaki all over again. Another promising but injury plagued TE that would never become anything "because Chiefs". Those were darker times brother. [Reply]

I remember I watched one game and Tony Moeaki didn't get hurt. It was amazing [Reply]
