AP: Is Donald Stephenson ready to be the Chiefs' starting right tackle?
This thing's a few days old, but I was pretty intrigued by the analysis. This guy previously did a look at Rishaw Johnson in the Chargers game, and here he is looking at Donald Stephenson in the Colts game.
It doesn't answer much (the final conclusion is basically "He's got the potential to be a solid starter") but it does shed some light on the good things that Stephenson did well in the Colts game. Yeah, most of this is sunny and only looks at one of the pressures he gave up, but a zero sack game is a zero sack game. I was also unaware that Alex Smith's strip sack came when Stephenson wasn't on the field and it was instead Schwartz on the play at RT. If someone else wants to copy/paste then be my guest, but with all the images in the post I'm not going to take the time to link each one. http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2014/7...t-mathis-colts |

If this were the Chiefs in my Madden universe, I'd say Donald needs a bit more "Snickers awareness"

Hudson had a couple WTF plays last year, but he's still solid. We're good with him. Fisher and Allen are the deeply concerning parts. The entire left flank. Nice job, Dorsey |

I think Stephenson will be our best lineman this season. Just a feeling, of course..

Sacoshit will be all over this thread, and he'll be right, for once.
Stephenoson was incredibly raw coming out and would have benefitted greatly from another year in school. But he has real potential to be an outstanding OT, which makes drafting Fisher all the more stupid. Hopefully he and Allen will step up this year after spending much of the offseason working with LeCharles Bentley. As for Hudson, I thought he would take about 3 years to really get comfortable with the transition to center, so this year should be really telling for him.

I'm hoping he's ready to be the LEFT tackle.

Hes ready. Chiefs offense should be dynamite this year as long as everyone stays healthy.

I really feel for the poor suckers who have to write about the Chiefs each year. Who are you going to write about? The 18th best QB in the league? The 30th best WR? Old man Hali? There is very little exciting about this team since Green and Holmes.

Never found losing 40-38 all that exciting.
