AFCWEST 1,238 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Reid remains impressed with general manager Brett Veach and the personnel staff finding undrafted talent. The Chiefs' three offensive stars of the game against the Steelers were running backs Darrel Williams and Derrick Gore, as well as wide receiver Byron Pringle. What do the three have in common? They're all former undrafted free agents, which is a positive reflection on Veach and the team's personnel staff.

Ward wasn't even our UDFA. We traded Parker Ehringer and a ham sammy for him. Ehringer got hurt before ever playing a game and Dallas cut him. I believe he's been bouncing around practice squads ever since. Veach should have grand larceny charges filed against him for that one. mex and AFCWEST 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azchief21 5,278 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 A few weeks ago I was saying I want the comfort of a blow out. We've had few lately and here in AZ they switch to a more competitive game. I want to see our D line with their ears pinned back chasing QBs that have to throw.

I saw that prior to the Chargers game, road teams that traveled at least two time zones were something like 1-12 on Thursday Night Football. So what we pulled off is insanely difficult. And my point relevant to your post is that other than that game under tough circumstances, we've won 5 straight by double digits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they switched back to the Chiefs game since it was the only one still playing. Glad I didn't miss Carr kneeling twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Carr knelt, they switched the network game to the Chiefs onto my big tv... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pringle has been great in small doses, don't know why they keep putting him down in the depth chart after such performances but IMO he's the most logical chioce for #2 WR this season.

Because he's been inconsistent. It's not enough just to flash for Andy and that historically is what Pringle does. You need to show it consistently to earn more playing time. I think it's probably a fair assumption that he practices like he plays... flashes of being really good followed by drops and mental errors.

However I think he has shown more toughness and positive consistency than both Hardman and Robinson on the field. At least for this season I think he deserves to be the default #2 unless/until Gordon gets back to his pothead days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was feeling positive that Gordon was going to help down the stretch/playoffs after learning the offense. Not so much any more. sith13 and AFCWEST 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t worry; he’s not playing for the rest of the year. His next game is in 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
