Can see why Dorsey would think this. 48th in INT's last year, 10 overall in his career.
Passing league and Berry's position as a box safety is just not valuable like it used to be.

Still think this would have a big affect on the locker room though. Don't blame Dorsey for thinking this.

Players rarely take paycuts with their existing team. They try the market and take less money someplace new if they have to. Just they way it works.

Last year we were arguing about this same shit and i said then that Berry wouldn't take the paycut and that a SS isn't worth 10+ m per and everyone freaked out.

I don't give a single shit whether the Chiefs label him at FS, he still plays like a SS. Berry has one more year to become Ed Reed or we let him walk. That stupid Pos Crennel should never work in the league again for putting a safety drafted in the top 5 at SS. Stupid ****er.

Outstanding!! I love this statement and it is sooooo true :clap: No, he does not have to become a ballhawk, but for the amount of money he wants...he better damn well be.

I will take a healthy Berry on a contract year looking to prove something and wreck shit this season.

Lets see what you got.

Yeah, the Chiefs should just start giving out $10.8 million dollar Franchise contracts for guys to "Prove it".

If you're not reeruned, I'd like to see some proof.

Dane, I'm thinking what he was getting at was that although Berry is good, hopefully a contract year will stimulate him into being GREAT. I'm skeptical just because I don't think he's a great coverage guy, but I guess he could surprise.....but probably not.

:rolleyes:

What is your solution to this? Drop the tag and let him walk?

Are you implying players on contract years dont show some extra motivation much of the time?

Rescind the tag, take the $10.8 and roll it over into to 2017.

FWIW, I have to give props to DJ for posting the solution first,

And have Parker, a rookie, Fleming, Brown and Sorenson?

That is scary.

It was also "scary" in 2014 with Parker and less talented scrubs, yet they did fine.

Are you saying they wouldn't be better with berry?

O.city 07-19-2016 09:49 PM

Iirc, the defense did have 1 pants shitting against the broncos but that was a team effort all around.

The "not giving up a 300 yard passer" moniker was great but a little misleading. They had a near all time sack artist going off and they played alot of soft zone, bend don't break defense that didn't create alot of turnovers.

That can work but I like the aggressive style more

RunKC 07-19-2016 09:55 PM

The Chiefs got massive amounts of pressure on the QB in the 2 wins without Berry in 2014. At least 4 sacks in both wins.

I wouldn't consider the Chiefs performance without Berry as them being "fine".

The defense could struggle with With all 3 OLB's having ?'s this year.
