What value does Ivie bring to the defense that Pennel doesn’t?

Yes,it does.

I don't disagree.

If Toub asks me to go return kicks, I will suck at it. It won't be my fault for sucking, it will be Toub's fault for asking me to do it.

Hardman isn't a Hardman problem right now - he's a Toub problem. There are a LOT of Toub problems at the moment.

Uh yeah, I just can't remember the play...I think it was after the botched FG.

Than we will be playing in shootouts as long as Reid is the coach. And I sure as hell don’t trust the defense to get a stop. There is a reason why Reid is 0-8 when the pass to run ratio is 2:1

It was after the long Derrick Henry touchdown run I believe.

Andy wasn’t even watching the game.

Gotta be ****ing kidding me. ****er probably still thinks we made the fg

Clark Hunt gave Andy all the power, and this is what happens. Veach and the coaching staff are Reid lackeys. Andy can sit his fat ass on the bench beside Mahomes while the defense is on the field - if I’m a defensive player, I feel inferior as I know the HC only cares about Mahomes and the next wizard play he can call.
This defense doesn’t play for one another, they all play as individuals: Mathieu, Jones, Breeland are prime examples - one doesn’t tackle, one doesn’t commit to scheme, one keeps committing penalties.
Not one member of this staff is a threat to get a job elsewhere, let alone threaten Andy as an heir apparent. That was Pederson/Nagy and these guys are better game managers who understand the need for a competent defense and dedicating appropriate resources to that side of the ball.
Until Clark Hunt gains a share of holding Andy accountable somehow, NOTHING will change: poor defense, soft in the trenches, poor game/clock management and baffling deployment. Veach needs demotion to head of scouting, and a manager to keep Andy in check is sorely needed.

Toub has only been "great" when he had Hester and Hill as returners.

Didn't I read or hear somewhere that Toub admits he tells Hardman to return it out of the endzone? I don't get that at all, just take it at the 25.

The only person worth a damn on this offensive staff is Kafka. I’d make him the next HC

As long as those seats at Arrowhead are occupied and paid for(no matter the color of the jersey) Clark has no need care.

It definitely looks that way. Two FGs either blocked or partially blocked in the last two weeks, a critical botched snap on another FG and a KR who has no situational awareness and is almost guaranteed to make the wrong decision on returns.

All coaches have awful records when the run/pass ratio is that lopsided. It's usually the score that dictates the ratio and not vice/versa. The studies on this are clear - you don't win because you ran, you ran because you were winning.

Your inability to separate causation/correlation here is leading you to advocate for an objectively stupid approach.

If you think the problem was the number of times they threw the ball yesterday, I have no idea what game you were watching.

I mean Clark watched NE come in here and lift the trophy named after his dad in our house...the expectations for this season were the highest in decades...

If we fall flat on our face again and he does nothing....well then you have your answer.
