Mitchell Schwartz loves KC BBQ and playing at Arrowhead Stadium
By Matt Conner
Mitchell Schwartz answered plenty of fan questions on Twitter on Saturday about living in Kansas CIty and playing with the Chiefs.
When the Kansas City Chiefs signed Mitchell Schwartz last offseason, it not only bolstered a significant weakness and provided an anchor opposite Eric Fisher, but it also brought a member of the family back to Kansas City. Most fans loved Geoff Schwartz during his stint in Kansas City, and remains a must follow on Twitter. It wasn’t long before we learned to love the younger brother as well (and follow him on Twitter).
On Saturday, the younger Schwartz took to Twitter to answer some questions and since we’re big fans and want to pass along his insight and advice, we compiled our favorite answers.
Now that the Chiefs have signed Laurent Duvernay-Tardif to an extension and have Mitch Morse under team control for the next couple years as well alongside Parker Ehinger who is just getting started, the Chiefs line will be together as starters for years to come. Schwartz was asked about the importance of cohesion.
Pretty cool. Consistency is important for the OL and we have that moving forward which is going to help us even more. https://t.co/4WUMX4ULgQ

It takes a while to get in sync with a guy physically on double teams, and then mentally to where communication goes down and it’s nonverbal https://t.co/Tl9B60cweb

The subject then switched to his favorite thing about being a member of the Chiefs.
Gameday at Arrowhead. Such a fun time playing there in front of all the fans, it’s a great environment. https://t.co/hpurEZUAEH

It’s clear he loves the city.
It’s great, we love living there. The city is fun, has so much to do. The fans are obviously amazing as well. https://t.co/XgNj0L9pmt

And, of course, the food needs to be mentioned.
Caveat being that I haven’t tried all the BBQ spots yet but I really love Q39 https://t.co/7ZQtfhEkmU

Perhaps most importantly, he was asked about being in K.C. overall.
Everything. Great team, great organization, great fans, great place to live. It’s all been a lot of fun and has lived up to expectations. https://t.co/cIZdj3qGDP
