You say this but then say they didn't need a WR :what:

A good WR won't help them score more than 10 points? They had OBJ last year so they're minus him meaning they got weaker at WR.
The Chiefs had a mehhh supporting cast on offense and were able to score more than 10 points. We’re not about to use that as an excuse especially had posters on this site who were stating that the Ravens would beat the Chiefs even with same said weapons.

Receipts exist for a reason.

They're missing a little common sense as an organization. Lamar takes them on a drive to go up 1 with a little under 3 minutes then instead of the DC zoning up and keeping things in front, he blitzes while manned up with back up corners, and I'm almost positive he'd been doing it all game and it hadn't been working.

The GM saw this game and for some reason seemingly got the idea that they win this game if Bateman/Flowers catches one or two more balls, or Hamilton catches that interception, which I'm basing off of this trade. This entire regime seems like it's Tony Dungy before Jon Gruden. They get Lamar WRs, but they're all short and unreliable. They get Derrick Henry, but ignore him when they should feed him. It seems like with all of the little details you need to get right to win they choose the wrong option on the coaching and GM level. That's what this trade looks like it's more of. The offense has been cooking. They don't need another #2 style WR.

They need corners and maybe even a new DC, but traded for a WR......If you were going to get a WR then do like KC and get Hopkins aka a true #1. It wouldn't have cost them much more.

-You would have more of a point after the trade deadline and if we found out EDC didn’t try to trade for an edge rusher, free safety, defensive lineman.


-Hopkins isn’t a WR1 in 2024
-Diontae Johnson>>>D-Hop in 2024
-If Bateman or Flowers were to miss games due to injury, fans are going to complain about not getting adequate depth in the WR room
-It takes two to trade, and the deadline isn’t over

Hopkins is dealing with mcl recovery and is not a true #1 at this point

Kelce was load managing all season to play like a goat te last year. People seem to forget how he was crushing people last year, however c/s on WRs.

I’d credit that to besides Mahomes being a better passer and clutch player, the coaching staff. It is what it is :yeshrug:

The team have enough skill talent to be fine if anything happens to your WR core. There's two TEs capable of being true attacking talent in the pass game. My main point is trading for a WR is tone deaf and it is. If there weren't any moves for defensive help then stay put on the offense. They already ignore Henry at the weirdest times. Don't take the tiny point of saying to go for Hopkins IF you were going to do something and make it more than it was. It's dumb on an offense that's already pretty effective and already a ton of passing options even outside of the WR room. That said, there's more of a chance that Hopkins turn back into a #1 with someone like Pat or Lamar than Diontae becoming a #1

Read above.

nikka said Hopkins is a WR1 in 2024. cats be saying anything LoL

You ain't gotta be scared. You can quote me directly. Don't try to hide and be sassy below my post. I'm retyping it for you just so you try to run away. There's more of a chance that Hopkins turns back into a #1 with Pat or Lamar than Diontae ever becoming a #1. Go look up who that man's QB was last year and he still was over 1,000 yards.
