Brilliant.
You're not thinking long term.

Mahomes sustained a nearly devastating injury with Orlando at LT and Donovan Smith was good enough that Mahomes endured the 2nd-most QB hits in the NFL last season.

The long term focus should be protecting Mahomes as much as possible. If the Chiefs have spotty left tackle play over the next 10 years it drastically reduces the chances of Mahomes catching Brady.

If you don't want Mahomes to end up like Montana you secure LT right now. Patrick is nearing the age where injuries will be harder to overcome. An ounce of prevention....

The 49ers had a dude get injured during the SB while running onto the field.

Mahomes took some big shots in the Baltimore game that looked more dangerous than the hit taken against Jacksonville in the playoffs last year.

He got hurt during a QB sneak of all things.

Trent Green took a cheap shot and was injured while Orlando Pace was his LT.

I'd love for us to have the best pass blockers around Mahomes to minimize big hits, but he could get injured doing literally anything on the field. Its a dangerous sport.

I still don’t understand how you can get such severe injury from simply running on the field. Bad angle? Something to do with the grass? Too much force?

It was a ticking time bomb. He’d been battling tendinitis in that heel already.

it's like a fraying rope, tendinitis, then it just goes.

Injuries like that can happen off of nothing if the process started. Like for a regular person if you consistently have sore achillies tendon issues or you step back and it hurts at times you should be very careful if you decide to play pickup basketball you could blow your achilles.

In all reality you could tear your achillies walking across the living room if you have damaged it, and fraying rope is a solid comparison.

It’s a 2 fold problem.

I honestly think the bigger problem was our WRs were so bad that Pat had to hold the ball more and that caused cracks in protection to become a bigger issue than they would be with better receivers.

2021 was the intersection of elite receiver play and spotty LT play

Defenses can always force a QB to hold the ball.

We would benefit a lot more from Mahomes being able to hold it with impunity.

Particularly since he likes to hold it.

The entire line was decimated, even if Fisher played we would've lost.
