The suggestion that the Chiefs might not be registering a fair evaluation of the offense because of injuries on the line was met with a stiff arm by Doug Pederson.
“You’re obviously evaluating each player on a per-play basis and obviously the ultimate result is to have everyone grade high on every play,” said Pederson, the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator. “But, no, you can’t just single out one specific group on offense. You just have to take each play and each individual player and coach at that particular time.”
With left tackle Eric Fisher and right guard Jeff Allen still nursing injuries and not expected to play in Friday’s third preseason game, against the Tennessee Titans at Arrowhead Stadium, the Chiefs have shuffled the line.
