COMPLETELY.

The running game was absolutely pathetic in the first half against Buffalo.

The whole offense was garbage until the drive at the end of the first half, which was basically two plays - the big pass to Boss and Cassel's scramble.

Funny how this offense works when we get big plays, and usually doesn't when we try to dink and dunk shit.

COULD IT BE ANY MORE OBVIOUS WHAT WE NEED?

Everyone knows what we need. Any Chief fan that doesn't sip the cool-aid just cause the Chiefs are "their team" has seen it for a few years. Leadership doesn't see it cause Clark lets Pioli do whatever he wants, the coaches want their jobs, and Pioli is blinded by his desire to be right about Cassel.

Yep. Completely obvious.

Strong veteran interior offensive linemen and a true fullback.

Once you get those, you draft some TEs, and some real WRs who can catch.

Then more RB depth.

Anything else? I don't think I'm missing anything...

GOOD!

I bet once Babb is gone it will stop too.

Perhaps not, Mr. Guru. Once the Star determines that their editorial position of exposing Dr. Evil and his despicable methods has resulted in recycling fewer papers from their boxes, advertising will increase and, as advertising increases, they will intensify their efforts to disclose the truth about Dr. Evil through the power of the printing press who will then have no choice but to escalate his own contemptible campaign of duplicity through a new and even more blatant wave of lies, deceit, deception and blatant obscurantism in order to save himself which will, in turn, result in even more damning evidence as his prevarications are revealed for what they are and he is at last discredited and smoked out of his lair to be sent packing back to the stinking pit of hell where he belongs.

It is a passing league, but that doesn't mean you cannot win running the football. The best team in the league is a run first and play tough defense (SF).

This play shows the ineptitude of our QB. Every damn receiver on the team is open via NFL standards. Hell, even by Jr. High school standards. The ball should have been out already to which ever receiver he wanted. (Whoever is running the seam rout at the 48 would have been the best option IMO) And the result of this play was a fumble by Cassel... that resulted in a TD by Buffalo a few plays later.

Okay. That's pretty sad.

But, here's my question ...

The guys on the team study the film from the last game, correct? And they all see the same thing, right? The same thing we see when we look at shocking photos like that, right? And they are football players ... they've played football all their lives and know what good quarterbacking is and what "open downfield" means, correct?

If all that is true, it seems to me that the guys would be absolutely sick and freaking tired of running routes and blocking their asses off for no reason since the result of all their effort and risk of injury is going to be some sort of screw up ultimately resulting in a loss.

The defense has to see this stuff, too. I mean, they know that, regardless of how well they play, they will never have the luxury of a lead or, most often, even any rest between series.

I have to believe that there is a lot of grumbling going on amidst the troops ... I know that I, personally, would have a freaking hard time being a good and loyal and generous and hardworking teammate to a dumbass like Cassel. Especially after seeing stuff like this every week.

Been trying to say this for a long time. You just said it a lot better.

I would agree with this. I think you an win with this model, but the fact is that you either have to be elite on running the ball and defense, or you have to have a qb that is anoutstandng game manager. For example, I think the steelers are moving toward this philosophy. Big Ben has proven he can win on his arm alone, but putting him into more a game manager role, in my opinion, will make Pittsburgh downright dangerous. Of course, I'm oversimplifying. Being a good game manager isn't easy. It requires you to make big plays in big moments and to be nails on third down. Few can do that very consistently.

The second best team also has a mean running game and good defense in the Houston Texans

While we're sitting here hearing about injuries the past two years and how guys aren't stepping up, I think this article about the Giants says it all about how it should be done:

This organization is run the right way.

It has a great general manger.

It has a future Hall of Fame coach.

It has a quarterback who no longer has to beg to be considered elite.

And it has the pass rush to knock down the other guys' quarterbacks.

But you can't win without having role players step in and make plays like Barden and Brown did. That takes a great mind in the front office to find them.

Jerry Reese is that and more. Ramses Barden and Andre Brown proved it again Thursday night.
You go down that checklist, and this organization has none of those...

We're still operating under the assumption that the turnover battle is the most important aspect of winning in an outdoor stadium. Philly is doing just fine so far.

You're fighting history there. They kept a severely outmanned Browns team in the game. Nobody is claiming that if you win the turnover battle you win the game every time, but you can't keep getting lucky.

FAX 09-21-2012 01:02 PM

No offense intended, Mr. xztop12, but the turnover deal will never be a thing of the past.

The turnover deal is, rather, a thing of the past and the present and the future all at once. The turnover deal transcends time and space and manifests itself in each of the elemental forces as well as matter and energy and that includes dark matter and dark energy which is really spooky because dark stuff is like nighttime in a blackout without a flashlight or matches when the midgets come out from behind the shrubberies.

When the enemy has more possessions than you, your chances for success diminish incrementally. It's like trying to fight off 40 midgets in the dark using only your penis as a club. Even if you win, you lose.

Nobody intentionally turns the ball over. It has to do with trying not to lose rather than trying to win. it's an approach of running draws on 3rd down because thats when the majority of turnovers happen.

I've been saying just the same ever since Haley was hired! But people usually make fun of me!

Props to Hamas he said Crennels defense was outdated when the Chiefs hired him.
