#Chiefs limited in practice: Brandon Flowers and Jalil Brown.



Bills gonna go up and down the field on Reeves, Glad this fail of a GM didn't go add any players this week.

Flower's injury is starting to concern me. I wish the organization would be a little more upfront on what is going on with him.

If he's not going to play any time soon than just freaking IR him.

Good luck with that. They're probably pissed off that we know what the team colors are.

Haha

You guys can be truly clueless sometimes.

Who, exactly, were they supposed to sign that was gonna be an upgrade?

When you lose Flowers, Brown and Menzie all to early injuries in camp...it's gonna be a tough start to the year.

Haha

Maybe they will ask Dexter McCluster to play corner, too.

To be a fan: Your Choice

There are a lot of posters here who sound exactly like GoChiefs. Jesus. Were you guys really that surprised you got killed by Atlanta? If anything you guys should be happy because your offense actually looked really good in the first half. You should have known you couldn't go toe to toe with Atlanta's offense without Flowers and Hali.

They need to get a clue.

Travis Daniels should be back at corner for Flowers.
Berry at FS.
Elam at SS.

Last cut down day about 10 corners better then Reeves, but if you signed them you had to pay them the full year other teams didn't have a problem with that but guess who did? That's right cheap ass chiefs.

LMAO

Get a clue is going to be the new CP meme.

I figured Brandon Flowers would be back for the Bills game for sure. I actually assumed he would be ready to go for week 1 too. What's the status on Kendrick Lewis?

Give me a list of all these starting caliber corners that were cut from their teams.

I'll be waiting.

Welp, guess at this point all we can hope is the walking wounded that constitutes half the secondary returns after the bye week.

Drayton Florence is one. That's all I can think of.

Brandon Carr........:doh!:

This isn't about starting corners, IT'S ABOUT CORNERS BETTER THEN THAT POS REEVES. Go Google NFL Cuts on final day it's not hard you will see about 10 corners better then Reeves.

What about him?

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...oster-tracker/


I see lot's of corners better then Reeves

Pioli missed the boat on Carr.
not negotiating/resigning him is gonna bite Phat Scott on the ass.

We don't need a "starting-caliber" CB.

We need a legit NUMBER THREE CB, which Reeves isn't.

Florence is out there. So is Leigh Bodden, Bryant McFadden, and Kelly Jennings. Those are the ones I can remember of the ones mentioned this morning on the radio.

But they did work out another TE this week. So they have that going for them.

LMAO

I think Florence was picked up by the Lions.

Pioli might as well face it, he isn't gonna find the new Gronkowski at a flea market price. :p

People who think this are too stupid to realize that the Chiefs would be in the same ****ing boat if Carr was still here.

Kendrick Lewis and Anthony Toribio working in pads during indivdual drills at #Chiefs practice today. That's progress

#Chiefs LB Tamba Hali back on the practice field today, both S Kendrick Lewis & CB Brandon Flowers working during open portion

Week 1 ratings:

Carr -1.5
Routt +1.1

if Flowers remains out i'd much rather have Carr as a number one corner than Mister PI.

"Mister PI" was a real problem, wasn't he?

Carr was pretty good in game 1 for Dallas...

Yeah, that never crossed my mind, dipshit

why would Ryan pass to Routt's side when he has the WR on Reeves side open all day.

makes Routts stats look better than they should.

Do people REALLY think Stanford Routt is the problem? Really?

This is about whoever is playing across from Routt. If we had kept Carr, but not signed Routt, we'd be RIGHT IN THE SAME PLACE WE ARE NOW.

should have kept Carr and made Routt the number three.

We're not talking about stats.

So, once Flowers gets back, all is well?

Routt wouldve been in Dallas.

ROFL

Pay $120M on the secondary.

GOOD IDEA!!!!!!

if you say so. ;)

Just playing across from Reeves gets you a +1 float.

sure, Pioli paid 60 million for a Backup QB to rebuild around. LMAO

Ya. His $5.5M salary for this year is really holding us back!

What?

Routt had a really nice game facing White and Jones (two of the best receivers in the game) and people go to these lengths to try and discredit it?

Routt faced better competition than Carr and came out with a much better grade.

Reeves is a legit 3rd string CB. If there are better 3rd string CBs, then they wouldn't be 3rd string.

It should be a hell of a lot better at least.

How does that make sense to ANYONE?

So, because Reeves was covering Jones...that made it easier for Routt to cover White?

What?

no, it's his play.

Before you laugh too loud, consider what would be guaranteed and what wouldn't...

Well, if you're a) not going to spend that money, what difference does it make?

and b) not going to use that money for adequate depth at OLB/DT as pass-rushers, why not?

I mean really, on this team we have legitimate pass rushers in Tamba, Houston, Bailey, and Poe). That is pretty sad that we have no depth at DE/DT to sub inside in our 2-3-6/2-4-5 for if Bailey got hurt (which he did, and our push up the middle suffered) and no pass rushers at OLB minus our starters.

It wasn't an extremely popular opinion at the time, but that was one reason I really wanted Whitney Mercilus in the draft. Poe isn't a bad pick, but the fact we have failed to add any depth in terms of pass-rushers is irritating.

What about Jackson and Dorsey salary? Those kind of DE in today's NFL are worthless.

Great, so we will only be giving up 30ppg vs 40ppg. Awesome! ;)

Actually, I think having Hali (pass rush) back will be a tremendous boost to our secondary.

Just out of curiosity, exactly what effect does telling you more about his injury it have on the situation? Is their lack of disclosure making the injury worse?

This stuff cracks me up.They are hiding Flower's injury! From who exactly?

Even if they are, what difference does it make on Sunday?

takeaway Herm's draft picks and what does this team have?

Jackson has already restructured his contract for this year and will do it again next year, probably with an extension. Dorsey probably wont be a member of the Chiefs in 2013.

"We're already paying a lot for our D-line, so we might as well pay a lot for our secondary"

Brilliant logic.

You mean highest ranked pair of 3-4 DE's in the league last year?

The dumbass that exudes from this place from year to year is amazing.

Just because PFF gives something a number or grade doesn't mean its correct.

Yeah cause paying them 100m to come out on 3rd downs is great sorry i feel top 5 picks should be play makers.

Candy wrappers?

Yes we should completely ignore unbiased sources that do nothing but rank players by position based on their actual performance. I would much rather use CP as my standard of excellence.

Let me ask you, do you agree in their suckage assessment of Cassel? Oh well yes I am sure you do.

LMAO

Reeves is the type of 3rd string QB that NEVER needs to be covering anyone. He needs to be playing Special Teams and that's it.

For what it's worth:

DJ
Berry
Houston
Winston
Allen (I don't ****ing understand why he isn't starting)
Hudson
Hillis
McCluster
Breaston
Baldwin

Powe
Toribio
Jackson
Bailey

Go back and read your quote I replied to and then talk to me.

Lots of dumb in this thread.

No one is arguing that. Unfortunately our 1st string and 2nd string CB were injured. Name one 3rd string CB in the entire league that can cover Julio Jones.

DJ? I think you took that question too literal

You forgot Pioli's Prize QB that cost us a # 2...

And anyone that watched the preseason knew Reeves couldn't cover Jones but Pioli did nothing. Pioli knew for weeks that Flowers and Brown would be a no go for week 1.

I kid, I kid. I like what Pioli has done in terms of our offensive line (drafting smart, athletic guys who are great in space). Additionally, I think he did a good job this off season addressing the running back position. The TE position is much improved as well.

However, we have no depth at pass rushers, poor secondary depth, and only one LB who can cover adequately.

Reeves isn't an NFL player.

If he was he WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN OUT OF FOOTBALL FOR 2 YEARS...

Any 3rd string QB not on the Chiefs. Duh. You know that. I bet The broncs 5th string practice squad safety could. /Knowmo

I can't. But I can name some who can at least cover Joe Blow and Reeves can't.

Yeah, look at the Giants trash corners that made Kevin friggin Ogletree a hot item for a week. Tough to survive 3 injuries at 1 spot.

They were the highest ranked pair in terms of run stopping. Not in terms of rushing the passer, which has quite a bit more relevance in today's NFL.

So you aren't aware of why he was out of football for 2 years? Reading is your friend.

The statement was they are worthless. The statement is completely reeruned.

Oh, I agree. I just would like to know. Selfish curiosity as a fan of this team.

Our DE's should be able to do something in terms of rushing the passer. But in case you weren't aware, that's not their job in KC's scheme.
