Both teams play under the same conditions right?

Before it started pouring it was 7-7 correct?

Had KC lost a close one in those conditions and people here blamed it on the rain it would be blood bath.

Actually YEAH! I was happy as hell it started raining... Our run game (I thought) would take over. When SD is more of a passing offense.

So yeah you'd be correct in your assessment.

Whitlock was also predicting the Redskins to go 1-15 this season on twitter Sunday night. He's somehow convinced himself that the Skins have a horrid defense. Following him on twitter has really dispelled any thoughts I had that the guy actually knows anything about football.

Between 15-20 carries a game sounds great for now.

Not trying to sound like a dick. Just making a point.

So you think that 11 carries was simply because of the shoulder injury that he did have? Because I don't see it like that.

I think there's something else why Jamaal isn't getting more carries and why a less talent is starting. Whatever the reason, it's bad logic.

I agree that between 15-20 carries a game sounds great for now. But I don't think it's going to happen.

It's interesting how the game unfolded ...

I've always heard that poor weather conditions give the advantage to the offense ... due to the fact that offensive players "know" where they're going and defensive guys have to react ... in sloppy conditions, that makes the d a step or two slower.

Monday night, however, it seemed the opposite was true.

Torrential downpour? check
14 point lead? check
Charles returning from shoulder surgery and occasionally having a fumbling problem? check


What's that spell? You feed the ball to the 400lbs bench pressing North South runner that doesn't cough up the ball. Sorry folks, it's no conspiracy it's ****ing common sense.

I was as excited about the SD win as anyone, but I would not be shocked at all if we lay an egg and lose in CLE.

Not in a game where there's only 49 plays. His touches were low because Cassel couldn't complete a pass. Sustain a few of those drives and Charles gets more opportunities.

(Just going by averages, if the Chiefs run 11 more plays, 60 total for the game, Charles would have ended up with about 15 touches...).

I agree, I wouldn't be all that surprised either, considering the emotional high after Monday...But still...

**** Whitlock

86% of bettors are taking KC +2. Only 14% like Cleveland as a small favorite. (Factoring in the traditional 3-point home advantage, Vegas likes KC better, anyway.)

I hope many many of Whitlock's fans take his advice..... (all 5 of them?)

Far as I'm concerned Whitlock can buy himself a chef's hat and learn to sing 'Love Gravy' as a full time gig. AMF.

Kansas City’s victory over the Chargers was a total fluke.
I wouldn't call it a fluke, but I wouldn't expect a return TD every week, nor would I expect the defense to allow only 14 points when they're on the field for 40 minutes.

Quote:

Todd Haley and Scott Pioli refuse to showcase Jamaal Charles solely because Herm Edwards drafted him.
That's ridiculous.

Quote:

KC’s front seven can’t pressure the quarterback.
True.

Quote:

The rain and the sloppiness of Arrowhead Stadium’s grass stopped the Chargers.
400 yards of total offense is getting "stopped?"

Quote:

The Chiefs have no No. 1 receiver or quarterback
Sadly, he's right again. Cassel's a backup at best, and Bowe is best suited to be a WR2, IMO.


I don't see what any of this has to do with Cleveland, however.

blaise 09-16-2010 03:13 PM

I'm leaning toward taking the Browns too, so that should tell you that Whitlock's probably wrong. I usually am.

The dude more than proved himself last year. Still, we hear bullshit about "he's starting to get it."

And when he doesn't get a single touch until the very end of the first quarter = stupidity on the part of the coaching staff. And I don't care that we hadn't sustained drives. More reason to get your best offensive player on the field.

Again, the fact that JC is not starting is mind-bottlingly (CP) stupid.

I don't disagree with what you're saying. I just think it's ludicrous to think that the reason for it has anything to do with Herm or Carl. Jason Whitlock seems to be the only guy around that can't let those two go.
