This likely means Remmers gets the start at LT. 

 

Yikes.

You know, for all of the Huddle expertise in evaluating players, Remmers has had a long career and will very likely be getting a Super Bowl ring in two weeks. Also, I'd imagine that he will remain at RT (where he's spent the better years of his career). 

Maybe our group mind isn't as smart as we think it is.

Or maybe having an elite QB, Elite TE, and Elite Receiver makes is much easier to get the ball out before a sack can happen. 

 

Some of his throws yesterday happened within one second of the snap. It is ridiculous.

People still blame Remmers for that game and they are STILL WRONG.

It was very (*&$@ing clear from very early on that we needed to give help on Von Miller.  Our OC chose to not give help . . . at all.  Instead of placing the blame where it belonged, on our staff, we chose to blame Remmers.  Sometimes players just have an amazing game and you need to adjust for it.  We didn't.

Remmers has enjoyed a solid career since leaving us with the Vikings, Giants and Chiefs.  The guy is now rostered and likely to play in his second SB.  He's already started 12 games for the Chiefs this year.  I expect he's going to get a ring this time.  Andy Reid is far from Mike Shula.

I blame the coaches and the refs.    Refs mainly.  Lot of the biggest Von Miller plays that won that game featured blows to the head, illegal bats of the ball, etc.

They also scheme smartly to make best use of their line. Mahomes has a quick release and is very mobile. He rolls out often to the right side (and the run game often works to the right) and this allows Remmers to keep his man in front of him and just maul the guy rather than kick-step and pass block. That's smart and moving him to LT just because he has experience isn't a good plan, as we learned the hard way. Of course, he's blocking for Mahomes rather than Cam and that is to Remmers' advantage as well.

Yep. Remmers is a solid player who had a glaring weakness against speed rushers. Vic Beasley exposed it in the second to last game in the regular season. Why Rivera and Shula thought he'd fare any better against Von Miller is nothing short of baffling.

It's a damn good thing they have Andy Reid and Eric Bieniemy instead of Ron Rivera and Mike Shula. The OL is gonna be a liability but they know it and they'll try to game plan around it instead of changing literally nothing and hoping for the best.

This is exactly what I was going to post

Mahomes is a golden child as well

I mean he is.   But not really if you stack him up to Tom Brady.   Like Peyton....it just doesn't seem like you can stop the predictable conclusion. 

Oh, look, Mahomes has turf toe.  Loses his LT.   About to play the best front in the NFL.   Everything setting up for Brady.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked.

      think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
