Does 60 total yards for our WR's alarm anyone?
And our #1 WR has 0 catches for zero yards. No wonder people think we have the worst WR tandem in the NFL. We can't expect Priest and our "don't know what to expect D" to bail us out all the time.

Green cannot block and pass, too...
If the OL cannot give the QB some quality pocket time, the passing game will suffer. Ditto for the running game, but that is another kettle of fish. Hopefully, the musical chairs OLine is over with Roaf back in place. And the return of Welbourne or Sampson should help on the right end. xoxo~ Gaz Expects an improved O in the near future. |

The starting O-line still hasnt played a full game together, well it depends on who the RT is, if its Sampson they still havent played a whole game together. Green now remembers whats its like having a stud LT and knows he has time to throw the ball now. Whoever was covering Kennison must have been doing a good job on him yesterday, I only saw Green throw his way once.

I did like what I saw from Boe, who could make a big difference.
Yesterday's game proved to me the Chiefs cannot lose Roaf. Without Roaf KC would have lost that game. If the O-Line can return to form I think the offense will return to top 3. |

Our WR's may be some of the worst in the NFL and I think they are a major reason why we have struggled on O this year. Morton was a solid WR that CB's had to respect and I don't think anyone right now respects Parker or our passing game.

Through 5 games in 2005:
1,018 passing yards 6.9 yards per attempt 4 passing touchdowns 3 interceptions Through 5 games in 2004: 1,123 passing yards 7.01 yards per attempt 5 passing touchdowns 4 interceptions Through 5 games in 2003: 956 passing yards 6.97 yards per attempt 6 passing touchdowns 6 interceptions Through 5 games in 2002: 1,248 yards 8.2 yards per attempt 12 passing touchdowns 6 inteceptions Through 5 games in 2001: 1,123 passing yards 6.6 yards per attempt 4 passing touchdowns 7 interceptions What was different in 2002? I'd say we snuck up on a bunch of people, personally. Anyway, this shows that our passing game is not appreciably different than it was through the first 5 games of 2004 or 2003.

Interesting seeing those numbers....My guess is the difference being that in previous years the passing game was coming through in the clutch when needed versus this year the similar numbers are coming at less important times cause I'm sure most feel like they have far less confidence in the pass attack this year than in previous. I know I sure do.

They only attempted 1 pass to Dante and it was that quick screen that the Redskins snuffed out. They threw to Boerigter and Parker a little more and they were successful with it (except Parker dropping a 3rd down pass) It is hard to get production from your WRs when you aren't throwing them the ball. I don't understand why the Chiefs don't use more slant patterns instead of all of those out patterns, especially with Gonzo. Also where was the shotgun formation yesterday? |

That's fine with me.
The KC WRs are substandard, and that's why they should only be seen as a secondary threat of this offense. Our strength is our running game and Tony Gonzalez. The WRs are there for the play action pass when Gonzalez is attracting doubleteams. Al Saunders gets the Chiefs in trouble when he tries to make this team into the RAMS.
1. Running game. 2. Gonzalez. 3. Throw the ball to Priest or TRich. 4. Then the Wide Receivers. In fact, I like Boerigter more than Parker for this reason. He can most likely block better since he is bigger than Parker (an assumption). We just need to accept that our WRs suck. They are only really effective when they are wide open because of the play action pass. edit: Our shaky and unpredictable D is another reason to play a ball control type offense. |

Sorry, I don't buy any of these excuses.
I think it all boils down to shitty playcalling. Where was the slant we had been running to Kennison the last few weeks? For him to have ZERO touches is just inexcusable. I was kinda pissed Samie got hurt because he started off well yesterday. Did you guys see the WR screen the Redskins ran to Santana Moss? We've done that before, but I can't remember once this season.

See my prior post about AS blowing goats, plus even though you don't agree with me, I still say that none of our WR's would be a true #1 on any team in the NFL, and I can't remember a time when one of them would have (excpet maybe 10 years ago), TG not included.
