Great breakdown as always Emdiggy! Agree completely with you about the OC spot - we need someone to stick around and develop some consistency. It's been the elephant in the room and glad somebody pointed it out.
GREAT analysis Em!
I think we have all the talent we need on both sides of the ball to make a serious playoff run.
There only 3 things that we have to overcome to be successful this year.
First....We have to successfully use all our weapons both on offense and defense and get them to play together as a unit. I'm confident RC can do that.
Second....There is that damned wildcard in Denver...the Forehead! Nobody really knows for sure what he is going to do in Denver or if he really has recovered from his surgery. If we can beat Denver twice then the division is certainly ours!
Third....We have to avoid the kind of debilitating injuries we suffered last year. A lot of that is conditioning and I think RC will see to that.
Can't wait for September 9!!!
Nice job Em! I agree also with the Daboll comment. Consistency is key for any team. Matt Cassel has the weapons, he needs to have a year like 2010-yes, it was with Weis- no mistakes, at least fewer mistakes. With our running game back and that O-line (I'm loving the look of our O-line) Matt should do fine. Play action is going to be Matt's friend.
Outstanding job! I have been saying that the Chiefs have BY FAR the best roster in the AFC West and people look at me like I'm crazy, meanwhile, the other three teams field journey men and has beens.
Y'know....I'm not half as smart about football and the Chiefs as some guys here. I'm really just a getting old out-of-state Chiefs fan, but I remember the last two years with everybody (including myself) saying we REALLY needed to improve the O-Line and that that was what we needed most. Sure seems like we have!
Don't want to drift this thread too much, but I think Cassel pretty much "has it all" now. Very respectable O-line. Some real hotshot receivers. Some great runners.
It is time for Cassel to produce. No more excuses. Just produce. And if he doesn't, it is time to send his ash down the road.
Nothing short of a playoff win will be acceptable as far as I am concerned.
Can someone explain how the Chiefs have the best OLine and best LBs?
They gave up more sacks then anyone in the AFC West except the Broncos and were worst yds/att in running. If the defense was so good especially the LBs how did they rank 26th against the run?
Look at the injuries last year. And why are you talking about last year? This post is about this year. Pretty sad when Raiders fans are boosting themselves based on a year when they didn't make the playoffs. And since you are a Raiders fan stop worrying about us and look to your own team. Come on by after we sweep you this year.
What injuries did your Oline and LBs have? Injuries are part of the game and without injuries we would have swept you last year (again) and we would have made the playoffs.Quote:

Hopefully he'll step up and gel with this unit, if not we'll replace him. Albert for all his knocks is a pretty darn good LT. So yeah, I'm feeling pretty good and would say that we have one of if not the best overall line in the AFC West.
While the LB'ers have some say in run defense don't you think the guys up front in the trenches would be more of the problem? Didn't we just use our 1st to draft a NT? I'd look for that ranking to shoot up sky high this year to early teens if not even single digits.
With the addition of a healthy Berry and Lewis back the rest of the defense can roam free without having to worry about the pass. Yes we lost Carr but Routt is only a slight drop in talent (he's not playing a #1 like he was last yr for you).
As for the worst yrds/att there was a guy that was out last year, what was his name...oh yeah, Jamaal Charles! You know the guy who tore up each successive year he's been in the NFL til his injury last year. Now we've added Hillis? I'd look for that number to shoot sky high.
That's why we're pumped for this year. Improved O-line, improved D-line and players that are critical at their position back for this year. We're set to make a run!
Its also nice that the AFC as a whole is down.
I hate the fng chargers
Well thought out response! I agree that Winston is a MAJOR over Richardson but IMHO Albert would be All-Pro at LG but is average at best at LT. Adding Winston may make your Oline a lot better but I don't think it makes you the top OLine in the AFC West.Quote:

We were behind a lot last year so teams ran a lot against so more yards if u look at yards per attempt we were like 11 or 12 im too lazy to look. Teams didnt have a whole lot of success thrwoing against us at the end of the year because of dj, hali, houston, carr and flowers.Quote:

Excellent point on the attempts...Quote:

We have added Brisel who was a beast alongside Winston in Houston at RG so our Oline should be improved.
The biggest difference is for the first time in 20 years teams will have to watch film of our defense before the game. We have been running the same ancient, outdated defense for far too long. It will be interesting...
So what happens when palmer doesnt wrk out. You lost 2 1st rnd pucks and i havent the slightest clue who your backup is.Quote:

Nice job Em! ...As usual!
And you know this how? No where have i read in any shape or form is anyone in KC on the hot seat. You just like making stuff up to support your conclusion. We were one game away from winnong the division two yrs in a row yeah lets fure him. Mr orton you r simply full of bs.Quote:

No most on this board say he will reprodyce what he did in 2010 a year you say doesnt count. You say you want a green bay exec or nyg. Instead we went the route of an organizatiin that has played in six superbowls sunce 2000 and won four.:efpge:.Quote:
