Wade Smith? Well honestly, I think they're just about the same guy.

Alleman's definitely a better center. Yet they've got him listed a guard.

To me, that's bizarre. Maybe it has something do to with the trade. Maybe there's a clause in there or something pertaining to compensation based on position.

It's just odd.

Maybe compensation based on playing time, or being designated a starter? Might be something.

To me, that's the only thing that makes sense.

Yet, it doesn't.

You'd think these guys would want to protect their $63 million dollar investment at all costs.

The Chiefs line has sucked for several years now. But they had 2 new players starting their 1st game for their Chiefs last Sunday. I'm not saying give them the whole season to gel, I'm just saying that the Baltimore D is a tough 1st assignment and they deserve more than 1 game to show what they got.

They're not stupid. There's something there, we just don't know what it is. Maybe Alleman only has 4 toes?

I don't think the head coach would agree with that. And I think we're going to see changes off and on all year because of it.

I think it has to do with the fact that Allenman has a history of back issues, and playing center would compound that problem far more than playing guard.

Ok, let's give them another quarter and then try something else.

I thought Ndukwe did a decent job pass blocking .. most of the pressure last week came from the left side and down the middle ... now the run blocking it dont exist ...
