|
Good on Frowers
|
In Japanese, the words "Jamaal Charles" mean "limitless bounty of cuttlefish and octopus". True story.
|
Came for The Killers concert, stayed for the rape.
|
So interesting. And very cool...but why Flowers?

Ahhhh Bwandan Fwawowwas vewwey good, yes?
|
Is it just me, or is that guy's head abnormally large for his body?
Phobia, what say you? |

He and Berry are still my favorite Chiefs. Wish they'd put him back on the outside though where he belongs.
|
Lucky guy got his jersey.

Pretty cool any update on his injury? Did he return to the game? I only saw the first half

Quote:
People are seeing big WR's ant TE's get matched up against him in the slot and then wondering why he gets beat. "OMG, Flowers sucks now!" He practically removed Welker from the game when they played the Broncos. Put him back on the outside (you know, where he's been playing his entire career) and i bet our defense improves. |

W. Welker 8/72 9.0 20 W. Welker 3/38 12.7 20 Decker just blew up so much that they didn't need Welker, he still averaged 12.7 our coverage has been ass across the board ... everyone at this point if they want to move Flowers outside, i don't care. Might as well try something. We suck. |
Flowers play isn't really as bad as it looks. Most of him getting 'burnt' has come from playing certain leverage and expecting safety help. Kendrick has more to do with this than anyone.

our coverage has still been poor Sutton deserves criticism too |

Flowers simply doesn't have the physical tools to play at a high level any longer. He never had elite size nor speed, but he got by on technique and smarts.
He has played through all sorts of minor injuries over the years, and they have caught up with him. He's had a great run, but he's fallen off the table quickly, and it's only going to get worse. Have Chiefs fans not figured out by now that hanging onto Corners for too long is a recipe for failure? |

Flowers veteran experience helps here. We don't even have a legit nickel CB to cover the slot on the entire roster. Maybe they go out and find/draft one in the offseason or maybe they keep Flowers at it next year, cause ya know, cutting him would be like 10 million in dead money. |
Go Flowers!......maybe he got him to sign his McCluster jersey he was wearing
|
That was a very cool gesture to some foreign fans, very classy.
The arrowhead with the rising sun is kinda boss. |

he's using 3 safeties most of the time and they still can't seem to stop giving up huge plays, both pass plays and run plays. they are better this season than last season with exception to Lewis, who has been the one most responsible for giving up the big plays this season. take away those plays and you have a decent performance from this secondary. need new horses. |
So Flowers is over the hill already? Goodness, just seems like he was in college yesterday. I'm a Virginia Tech fan, so saw him play plenty in college. One in a long line of outstanding defensive backs from VT. And, like most of them, he's a DB that will hit hard. I hope he hasn't lost it.

B Dot is a great football player, but I think they did right moving him into the slot/nickel role. he's one of the best inside ten yards from scrimmage, great tackler, sheds blocks xlnt to make tackles on runners.
they might try using flowers at that 46 spot Berry occupies, put Berry at FS and kick Lewis to the sidelines. |
Flowers definitely peaked in that 2010 season. Being 5'9", already slow, and losing athleticism by the year he's likely only going to get worse.
With that said, he's still one of the most physical and best tackling CBs in the league and if I was forced to choose one of our CBs to play a single game, it'd be him (he's still our best). We could try him out at FS and although he has much better instincts than Lewis, we'd likely see the same issues we do today as he'd often be too slow to get there on time. It pains me to say it, but we'll likely have to dump him by the time he hits 29/30. |

The Chiefs are taking Flowers and sticking him in the slot to cover big, heavy TE's like Gates and Thomas, or even worse, these 6-4" WR's like Decker that can go any direction they want AND add in the fact that teams like Denver and SD run a shit ton of pick plays. That's a HUGE mismatch designed by the offense. Offenses salivate at that. Hence the era of the big fast TE. You're asking 5-9" Flowers to cover 6-5" TE's and WR's in wide open space. It's asking a point guard to defend a Power Forward. It's just not realistic. And then people wonder why Flowers is struggling a bit more than normal. I think it's pretty obvious. |

they can let players go a year early, throw a new guy into the fire cause they know their QB is going to still keep them in games so the grooming leash and room for error is much larger for Joe Schmo at CB or Safety, when the QB can bail them out when they **** up. The other franchises that DONT have QBs like this, have to hang onto players a year too late to try and well, remain competitive. |

I have little doubt that this defense is gonna wreck shit again once he is back. We limited SD to 3 points while he was out there for the first half...what was the final score, again? |
No one else notice the Asian dude wearing a Dexter jersey!?
ROFL |
I think they probably thought thought that the Brandon Flowers that sings for the Killers also played for the Chiefs.
