I can't imagine that he would change his stripes to that extent.  He always gave up on the run last year.  Even when Uzo was healthy, they weren't in 12 personnel much.  But, to be fair, he was still trying to get his money's worth out of AJ Green.  Chase, to me, is the perfect fit as he is a complete WR that can bully DBs that try to press him and he has an uncanny ability to track/get open deep down field.  That being said, that 2nd round pick for a TE still got me thinking....

In my opinion 12 personel gives a defense more issues
Than 11 personel. You can run power football and still spread
Out the defense in 12 personel if you draft a Kyle Pitts.

As a matter of fact I think the Chiefs are going to.run 
More 12 personel this year and less 11.

I think resigning Perrine might be the tip off they are drafting Pitts. Perrine is physical RB with good leg drive.

Maybe this coaching staff realizes more power football
And less empty sets goes along way protecting JB
