I wish they'd given Harrison Mevis a call.

Come on fellas, the "we should go for it on 4th and 3 from the 30" are now going to see if that is wise...

We finally got rid of 'because Chiefs' after all these years.
Do we really want to tempt the gods of football by bringing in 'because Mizzou' as well? Love my Tigers, but think it's best to let sleeping dogs lie here . . . . . |

Red Zone decisions might get a little more interesting now as well. As in, if we know we may need a longer FG later, with Butker you take the automatic 3 here and assume the likely automatic 3 later. With this dude it may change the calculus a little and make the Chiefs more apt to go for 7 on 4 downs when they get inside the 20, unlike the situation with Denver last week where we settled for the 3 FG's in the red zone. |

I wouldn't have mentioned his name if he sucked. The guy did a great job.

Probably should see less of the gadgety stuff and the vanilla plays. Andy might have to break out the platinum (plutonium?)-grade RZ plays for the next month. And, hopefully, less trying to force plays to Justyn Ross/JWat/whoever, more to Travis and Nuk. In fact, I 100% expect DHop to be featured a ton more in the RZ now.

Not gonne lie, part of me wanted this because the Bills worked out Mevis earlier this year when Bass was struggling, but passed on signing him. Imagine if the Chiefs signed him, brought him in and he beat them on a GW FG. Holy Shit! The meltdown in Buffalo would be epic! Between 'punt god' and the 'thicker kicker', you would be able to hear the knashing of teeth all the way from Buffalo . . . . . |

Now we will find out how valuable Butker is. I have always thought he has been underappreciated and after Mahomes and Jones is our most valuable player.
If Mahomes can start hitting worthy when he is wide-open, which is often at least several times a game it won’t be so important |

I'm not going to minimize Butker's contributions but we are going 4-0 in that stretch he's out
