Legitimately, is there a place for Dan Sorenson to succeed on this team other than special teams? I miss the trick or treat Dan of old, but it is laughable to watch him play where his is put now.
Why do you believe that the Chiefs struggle to bring in free agents? We saw that Andy reached out to OBJ and he was just the latest to choose to go elsewhere
I’m curious how you’re currently seeing the Chiefs usage of Josh Gordon, and if you see that translating to any significant production later this season from the WR?
Been a long-time fan Seth! Thanks for the excellent film review and coverage of the Chiefs.
Is Mitch Schwartz done? He's taking on a lot of pundit gigs, but do you think he's planning to keep playing somewhere? We could use another right tackle, right?
I have noticed a couple of different things about the Chiefs offense compared to last year:
No option plays attacking the perimeter - we pretty famously got rid of QB sneaks after the 2019 Denver game. Did the Cleveland Clothesline remove the option from the playbook forever? (I am trademarking that name.)
There was a lot of talk in prior years about Mahomes' ability to move defenders with his eyes, but not this year. Have defenders adjusted?
Watching the games, it feels like the offensive line is doing well, and they seem to be highly graded (I think it was PFF that had them in the top five). But then I also read or heard somewhere that Mahomes has had about .3 seconds less per dropback this season than last season before pressure arrives. Which doesn't sound like much but is something like a 10-15% difference, which is enormous. Which is a large preamble to a simple question - how good is the offensive line midway through?
Do you think CEH returning will mean more runs as you suggested previously? Or, will it remain as-is, while the offense continues to figure things out?
Many in the media are calling for Mahomes to "return to the basics" and "get back to what makes you special". Aren't those two statements fundamentally counter to each other? Mahomes has a lot of great qualities on the field, but what makes him "special" or "great" is what he is capable of when things are not "basic".
If the other safeties on the roster can’t beat out Sorensen for playing time, (acknowledging his snaps have been decreasing, but still) why are they still on the roster? I can’t imagine watts is actually worse than what they’re getting now. Is it stubbornness from the coaches? Or is everyone else just that bad?
Will the recent resurgence of Frank Clark--if continued--change the Chiefs' plans regarding him (and his contract) going forward for the next one (or two) years?
What do you think they will do regarding him and what do you think they should do?
I was disappointed that Gore didn't get more playing time against the Packers; I kinda feel like he might be the best option for RB currently on the Chiefs roster. Is there anything you've seen to either back that up or refute it?

If boxes remain light, how often would you run the ball on 1st down?

Do you think next season's starting RB and WR#2 will be players who are currently on the Chiefs roster?

"How bad have the Chiefs been missing Sammy Watkins? We need a legit #3." from Twitter :)
Does Veach pick a player in the first round this year, or does he trade it again? Either way, what position does he use it for?

So what can Mahomes do to "get back on track"?
What will become of the Chiefs WR2 position? Draft? FA? Barring any sort of jump out of anyone rn, there aren’t any in house answers.
Do the chiefs address WR through the draft or free agency this year? And if it's free agency, who would you like to see them target?
