-Hillis sucks to begin with. You can make an argument that Draughn is the best #2 back on this team. He can pass block at least, and he's getting some playing time in real NFL games because he's actually a decent talent.

Fair enough.

Draughn is also an excellent teammate. Fun watching him pump up the energy.

-Jeff Allen did not step up. He graded like a -3.6 by PFF. He got owned. Ryan Lilja has been playing well all season, so he didnt step up from anything. Hudson should be playing guard, where he was a two time all american at florida state. Again, not Pioli acquiring depth, Pioli being a ****ing idiot and not acquiring a true center. Chalk this up to a failure pile GM.

Lilja didn't step up from anything? He filled in at a completely different position and tore shit up.

It's unrealistic to look at that and not consider that impressive. Credit where it's due.

Hudson is fine at center, but almost every team had his projected as a center, and he has not been bad at center. He needs to get healthy and back on the field to continue his learning curve.

-Again, STEVE MANERI STEPS UP. So Tony Moeaki, still waiting on this "first round talent" Pioli got for a steal. Oh wait. He's terrible. And he's hyped on here as this great TE. Another Pioli fail.

I was referring to Boss as a 2nd option at TE. Maneri stepped up to it.

How did Breaston and Baldwin step up.

Because Breaston played more shallow routes and didn't do half bad.

Baldwin was finally targeted more, and stepped up.

lol Toribio goes down. What has Toribio ever done to go up?

He was the starter heading into the season. He got the starter reps.

Powe stepped up despite getting 3rd team reps.

His coverage and bracketing in the 2nd half of the Chiefs game was nails.

Honestly, you're letting your hate of Pioli get the best of you. Common ChiefsPlanet error.
