Thanks to everyone who has reached out to say nice things via email and DM!
One question I've gotten is whether I can make it to where videos are directly embedded so that you can watch the videos without the tweets taking you to twitter. I am finding that out as we speak and will update when I know more!
UPDATE- It's in the article as well, but it's worth letting everyone know I think I've found an end-around. You'll see it in the next article (just switching to gifs)!
It is kind of wild to even fathom another level? Patrick Lavone Mahomes healthy for ALL of the season( I am looking at you #75...oh wait) and going to year 3 as Nates article alluded too. CEH adding an additional out of the backfield threat. Mecole elevating his game? Playoff Sammy to boot? Let's break the scoreboard. Great read Seth as always!
Thanks Doug! I Agree, it's hard to imagine another level. But it IS there! A little more consistency with the same amount of explosion is a realistic chance.
Excellent write up! Excited about the newsletter and hearing more from you.
It seemed like Hardman's snaps dipped a fair amount during the playoffs, do you think this was because Hardman just didn't know as many routes and Andy was gonna stick with the vets?
And do you think we see a big uptick in snaps for Hardman in his second year?
It's impossible to say why for sure, but my guess is Andy's desire to lean on the guys he knew understand every facet of the offense by heart.
I expect to see an uptick in snaps, but it's going to be TOUGH. Hill, Watkins, and Robinson are not easy guys to take off the field and have been around for years. And it's not like they can just go 4 WR's because that takes Kelce off the field, or 5 wide with no RB because that takes CEH off the field.
My hope is they start throwing the ball even more so there are enough snaps and targets to go around. Rotate guys in and out for breathers to take advantage of tired cornerbacks.
Seth, I have followed your work from SB Nation, to The Athletic, and now here. Keep up with your radio and podcast appearances as well. Good job man you’ve turned yourself into a STAPLE of chiefs kingdom. Even out here in northwest Kansas your work comes up in casual chiefs conversation. Thanks for all the top notch content man!

How about some film clips that you haven't tweeted or used at The Athletic? Make us feel special!
Haha you already are special!
That depends on the ability to directly upload videos onto the page or some other methodology. I'm looking into it. :)

Especially at guard. But I think they have a solid plan that sounds like.
They have a lot of bodies to throw at guard. Don't sleep on Niang.

Voting yes on the newsletter. It's awesome, Seth. Keep it coming.
Will do!
This is awesome, thank you Seth!!!
I"m glad you enjoyed! He's a fun player to write about, lol.
I can’t wait to see him really get used in the offense. He’s a sleeping giant just waiting to be woken up
Absolutely. Once he's got a more firm grasp on the various route concepts, etc, he'll be tough to keep off the field.
