Welp, my boy Fields had better stay sharp because he just saw his window open.

Damn tough break for Reaser. He had some demand so I'd imagine he got himself a little injury guaranty but that still sucks something awful.

Really feel for Reaser. Probably his last real shot.

Because he's a 1 year contract talent.

Yes, that does suck to go out like that.

So they seem to plan on really using KPass now? Surprising.

That DL is ****ing deep if guys like him become solid.

Can't wait to see what kinda juice this Wade kid has.

DJLN already said it, but i never understood why he was buried in the first place. He did a good job of creating pressure the little bit of time he was in there. Glad to see he's getting a chance.

Watching on NFLN... run defense looks rock solid. A little concerned about the push of our interior line. I’m still not 100% sold that Reiter has the strength we need at C for a full season.

Can’t express how stoked I am to hear that Hardman seems to be coming along nicely.

That will be a great boon if/when Watkins misses some games, or God forbid Hill does. Hopefully you have all 3 and just torch ass week in and week out.

D Montre Wade balling out today. Intercepted Mahomes

The run defense is so damn important for this team.

Think about that 13-3 Chiefs squad with Vermiel that had a generally shitty defense but it was at least one that forced teams to try to push the ball. It forced turnovers and created high-pressure downs for opposing offenses.

Well that's the situation we need to find ourselves in again. We can't let a team go out there and just control the clock on us. We can't let them have 5 free yards on first down and set themselves up in spots where they have easy pitches/catches for 1st downs. We need them behind the sticks so that secondary has easier responsibilities.

So many people gave Veach trouble for focusing on run defense when the passing game was so strong and was forcing teams to work from behind. I don't think that was the problem, I think the problem was that all the focus on the run defense yielded very little in the way of actual improvements there. If that focus had yeilded a sturdy run D, things would've been so much easier all around for the defense and secondary.

Here's hoping that those gains will actually be realized this year because run defense is far more critical with this offense than people realize. If teams can't just attack with 1,000 papercuts against us, we'll force them into mistakes and it really only takes 3-4 of those a game for us to come out on top.

And this time Warner can run around. :)

Give him Warner's deep ball accuracy to go with the raw arm strength and he can literally put a ball anywhere on the football field. Defensive backs can never pass anyone off because if they're in space, Mahomes can get it to them, even on the backside of the play.

Warner is still the best pure passer I've ever seen. His ball didn't always have that beautiful spin on it, but when it comes to putting a ball exactly where he wanted it to be, exactly when he wanted it to be there, he was better than Joe Montana. Tom Brady's that precise through 12-15 yards but not 20 and beyond.

Warner with time was a goddamn assassin and if Mahomes can get his accuracy to that level...{shudder}...he probably left 10% again as many TDs and Yards on the field last year by just missing balls downfield that time and reps may prevent him from missing going forward.

Those missed deep shots were the difference between him having the 2nd best season by a QB in history and the unquestioned best. He'll be able to challenge those marks again this year with a step forward in his downfield accuracy.
