I believe the Chiefs are 2nd in the NFL as far as being under the cap w/about $14+million. Depth could be created with that coin.
So that excuse the guys that you keep praiseing herm and cp for getting? Do you call out Hali for getting himself suspended Nope. Do you call out Bowe and dj for there bad play nope. But you sure can call out Cassel who did far more good then either of those guys today and Pioli and you wonder why people think your a troll. You call out the guys you don't like ignore the failings of the guys you do like. It's a team game Cassel is a part of the reason we lost but so are the other guys why only call out 2 people? I have no problem saying Cassel is a part of the loss. But he did alot more then others did on this team today. And yet he's still one of the only ones you call out
The players are paid to make plays....but bottom line.....this loss should be placed squarely on the coaching staff, specifically the HC for not making the proper halftime adjustments. Atl did
And you ignore Hali getting himself suspended You ignore Dj one NOT on of Piolis picks bad play that hurt. You ignore Bowe not playing like a number 1. You ignore The fact that the offense we did have came largely from one of Piolis picks. In fact all the Tds came from Pioli's guys and not Herm and cps. But why bring that up you will ignore that to. Come on My man don't you see that it goes past just Piloi's guys. The guys you keep talking about being "our best players" didn't do anything today to help. Cassel did far more then Bowe did. As did Mccluster. But ya keep putting all the blame on the 2 guys you don't like
our offense is not built for a shoot out.. It's built to grind the clock and slowly march down the field.
We lost by 16 points to team that scored on every possesion until the end of the game when they let up and didn't turn the ball over at all.
we needed adjustments and didn't get them, atleast in the right direction that is. they made the wrong adjustments.
YES it is Hali's fault since HALI GOT HIMSELF SUSPENDED
Darn that Pioli for drafting Hali he should have know Hali would have gotten suspended. OH WAIT Pioli didn't draft him.
Darn what a great game Bowe had. WOW 3 catches for 53 yards he was GREAT.
Man that mccluster was a great pick by Herm cp he was our leading wr today. Oh wait that was a Pioli pick.
Darn that Derrick Johnson and Pioli for drafting him. Oh wait that wasn't a Pioli pick.
Man Cassel sucks he only accounted for 2 of our 3 tds today. It's all his fault.
You really want to talk about BLIND?
Your missing the point. You keep talking about the Pioli guys not playing well ok fine. Then call out the Bowe's who didn't do even as much as mccluster call out Hali for getting himself suspended call out DJ for his bad play. Call out Albert for his bad play. It wasn't just the Pioli picks that struggles out "Best players" that you praise so much sucked today to. Cassel our "horrible qb" who can't do anything did far more then "our best players" and yet he's still the only offensive player you point to. You don't call out Hali or DJ you just call out the secondary you give your guys a hall pass for there crappy play but then call out those you don't like. That's not a realist. Bowe didn't play well CALL HIM OUT if your a realist. DJ didn't play well CALL HIM OUT. HALI hurt the team by getting himself suspended CALL HIM OUT if your a realist you should have no problem doing so. Instead you just blame Pioli and Cassel as normal. I have no problem agreeing they didn't do a good enough job today. But I don't blame them more when they or they guys they brought in did far more good then the guys you want to give a hall pass to.
Woah Woah Woah ... The only thing Sperm Edwards did was destroy this team, he only took Bowe because our pick Brady Quinn was picked by Cleveland who leapfrogged us.... And look at how good he has done.
I am not a Cassel supporter but also dont believe that either of our backups are going to get the job done. At the time I wanted Quinn ... I was wrong... I am a huge Iowa Hawkeye fan but wasn't even a Stanzi fan when he was Iowas QB ...
I believe overall Pioli is doing a good job ... the only thing I fault him on is overpaying for a backup and standing behind him... If Pioli would have admitted he overpaid for Cassel and drafted a great QB or even went after someone other than just Manning (Which I dont even really think he went after) or even allowed a true QB competition like he said he would (Which I do think Cassel probably would have won) I would have no faults with Pioli at all....
Even Pioli / Haley was far far superior to Peterson / Sperm... I hope for a great season for Pioli / Crennel and think we have a great shot at it.
What about 6.5?
Not that I bet on anything I don't control.... But I find it sloping interesting that you attack my confidence, despite that I have admitted to NOT being confident, while you are as.confident as can be, having labelled this game a "MUST WIN", meaning that the loss eliminates us from playoff contention.
So why would you not propose a line at your prediction, instead of at mine?
I bet (HYPOTHETICAL, OF COURSE,) you would find a bettor at 6.5 O/U.
Show YOUR confidence. I have already expressed mine.
But I have also, repeatedly expressed that I am not confident in Matt Cassel. It is only your far ended opinion that makes you think.I am.
You think he is garbage, and I think has done well and could become a very good QB.
At every turn, you fail to grasp reality, and instead invent others' opinions for them.
On a day like today that's not saying alot. He also made a misplay on a 3rd down that allowed the falcons to get one of there many touchdowns. Yet you won't call him ot for it. Instead all you do is whine about Cassel and Pioli.
If Hali hurt the team then why haven't you called him out like you have Cassel and Pioli? He hurt the team big time by getting himself suspended yet you give him a hall pass. You admit he hurt the team then go right into more bashing Pioli. Why does one get a hall pass one get bashed?
You admit that Albert got beat. Then why don't you bash him like you do Cassel Again you give one a hall pass and bash one. Do you not see the double standard there???????
You are 100% correct here but Pioli hasn't done a bad job in KC. He has added depth to alot of spots on this team. Do you rember when your boys were running this team. 6-26. He didn't have a whole lot to work with. He can do a better job and needs to. But you don't give him credit. Instead you just point at the negitive. Mccluster is a prime example. The guy had a pretty good year last year. You say this off season that he won't play with Charles back he goes out and leads the team at WR today. You have a not so go reputation on here Orton some well earned some I think is a tad unfair. But a large part of it is that you hold only 2 people accountable. You give everyone else a hall pass. If Pioli's such a bad drafter then call bowe out when one of his picks outplay him. You don't instead the only to you mention is Cassel and Pioli while claiming that your poor reputation is because you're a "realist" A realist doesn't hold 2 people accountable and give everyone else a hall pass.
3rd HC in 5 years.
5th OC in 6 years.
We need a consistent coaching staff. It's gonna take a couple years - providing we can keep our current staff.
Would that be similar to how Matt Cassel completed 63% of his passes, or how he had over 250 yards passing? Or would it be more like how Cassel threw for a TD, ran for another?
I know.... It is a lot like how he led the team down the field and into scoring position on EVERY SINGLE DRIVE OF THE GAME, until the fumble, which put the team down by 17, right?
