FANATIC 852 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Seems like oline judgement now based on QB pressures and sacks? KC could not run the ball as well as usual. Is it oline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer 8,686 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 no Charles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhataLerror 370 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 no Charles? Charles did hide a lot of the sins of the previous offensive line squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Charles didn't need much blocking. Others do. I think they were doing a better job when Ehinger was in there. After he was gone, they fell off. It could have been a beaten up Ware that played a part also. They have been protected a lot by WR screens, trick plays and designed 3 yard passes. I think when they continue improving you will see Andy trusting them more and letting the QB hold the ball longer with plays that take a while to develop. We saw more downfield passing last year. I expect that trend to continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhataLerror 370 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 End of 2015 Ware & West both ran well? No Charles then either? Jeff Allen used to be a Chief. I'd rather have Fulton as a backup center than as a backup guard. But even then, the rushing of the Chiefs wasn't very good in the 2015 post-season. Smith had better yards per rush than any Chiefs runningback. It is very, very possible that the Chiefs' offensive line is simply overrated. Especially by Chiefs fans.

liquidfriend 1,151 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 A combination of things. They ran a lot on the left side early and going from Ehringer to Fulton hurt. Run blocking concepts a tad wonky. Ware wore out Line a bit small and gets mauled at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent' met very many Chiefs' fans that think the offensive line is good, especially at guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefensiveMan 758 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 If Ehinger comes back healthy that will make a big difference at LG. Our running game was stout until he and Ware got injured in Indi. Fulton is a nice backup G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHard 2,061 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Nice read. Ehinger had his struggles, but better than any other candidate on the team. Glad they locked up LDT. Morse was a great pick. This group will be better this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,714 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Line has been "bottom third" for the past few years. I saw the line as "Middle of the pack" toward the end of last year. That said, the O-line does get mauled in "must run" downs... I have hopes the line improves to top 3rd this year with the continuity and progression of the young guys. w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
