Nobody has arguing about the talent. They’re just saying if you have 3 rookies the chances of 1/3 blowing an assignment and competing whiffing goes up exponentially and we have to protect the franchise at all costs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The Chiefs did not lose a game last year when Remmers started at RT. overall he was our most consistent OL by years end.
I get the excitement but Niang hasn’t played football in 2 years. I think it’s going to be hard to beat out Remmers which was why they told his agent he would start. Andy knows that this is a new OL in at least 4 spots minimum. He’s not gonna throw out multiple starting rookies at the same time against our biggest competition and quality DL’s slated early in the season. I could definitely see Trey Smith starting if injuries continue to happen. Otherwise I think it’s gonna be Long, LDT or Blythe in front of him. |

At this point I'm extremely glad we aren't relying on Niang to be our starting left tackle remember when we were all trying to talk ourselves into that

Regardless of what we are each speculating and trying to deduce.... This is a good problem to have.

When I said "for the most part" the one thing I was thinking was that LDT might actually start over Blythe. Other than that, I totally agree. |

Wylie, LDT and Allegretti regularly got their shit pushed in during pass protection by more physical defensive players. Plus, they could rarely create any space for our running game.
Smith has said he credits his high school coach telling him was not physical enough- so he flipped the switch-"And it stayed Flipped!" He wants to punish guys on every play. Wylie should be cut, LDT and Allegretti should be backups. None of the 3 have the same attitude as Smith. |

No one has brought up if the Chiefs will insert Trey at LG and move Thuney at RG when Niang is the RT. If KC is afraid of inexperience on the right side of the line then is one way to remedy it.

Niang will be a backup to start. Brown, Thuney, Creed, Trey, Remmers - that will be the starters-imo. |
