How come chester never gets any props for his play?

[Tribal Warfare]

I know that glock jumps off sides alot but i hate to think where our d would be without his presure up the middle. and it looks like dan williams is finally playing for all that cash carl threw at him!

[DaKCMan AP]

Does anyone know where to find data on how often teams run the ball towards Chester? I would find that very interesting.

Sorry Morph, but there is no [i]official[/i] record of that play in my stat sheet. You can't prove that ever happened, and therefore cannot use that as supporting evidence toward any logical point whatsoever.

Maybe because he's a classless scumbag?<P>

Cory - Don't make me go get my videotape!

Hoping he doesn't ask for it cause I don't have one.

Hey Drew,

I think you were looking for that other topic discussing the lack of respect for Romo. [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/tongue.gif[/img]

Cory - Don't pick on Romo, the poor guy is probably still laying on the ground after the hit that TRich layed him out with.

I guess i did'nt know it was taboo to talk about chester's performance, just curious that not much is said about his play. [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif[/img]

It's not taboo, mohawk. It is to Clint who is too busy crying over spilled milk (Glock's contract) to credit the man for making some plays happen.

[redbrian]

IMO he isn't even the best DT on the team. I would give that honor to Dan Williams. He's quicker & has a better motor.

I don't dislike the guy...but his performance this year is almost EXACTLY like last year's so far, even though the other D-linemen have improved tremendously.

Glock isn't the only one getting double-teamed, nor is he getting doubled nearly as often as last year. Watch him closely, and you'll see.

[Yosef_Malkovitch]

Let me get this straight, Clint. You don't like Glock because of his cap # but you do like Dan Williams? Besides his 2 sack performance, what has Williams done that Glock hasn't? Hell, Williams was relegated to the bench for Browning earlier in the season....

[redbrian]

Williams needs to be shown the door as well, IMO, but at least KC gets a LITTLE more bang for the buck out of DW.

I wish we still had Tom Barndt.

[Cannibal]

The ONLY reason our outside pass rush has done anything is because Glock and DW are shutting down the middle and drawing the attention in there. That is why Hicks and Clemons have looked good. Chet also helped cause the clinching INT, Patton gave him major props for that...

[Cannibal]

Clint,
You have got to be kidding about Barndt. He was the biggest pu$$y on the team. Every time he had to line up inthe middle teams were able to run it up the gut. He had some nice plays in between but he was WAY too inconsistent and soft, which is why he's playing for the Bengals now...

Clint,

What in the [b]HELL[/b] are you talkin about?!?

So, Dan Williams is our best Defensive Tackle, but he needs to be shown the door?
[b]WHAT???[/b] [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/confused.gif[/img]

Remember DT, fearsome OLB, our belated hero? There were many critics of DT around NFL circles. The claims were he was not a complete LB, weak against the run, weak in pass coverage. And there is [i]some[/i] validity to these arguments. At times, it seemed he just did not show up at all for games, you never heard his name called all day long. But make no mistake about it, his presence was a major factor in each and every game. Every KC defender felt it, every opponents offensive player felt it, and every coach on both sidelines felt it. When a dominating defender is a focal point of the offensive game plan,
[b]THAT[/b] is a major impact, whether you see thier name in the box score or not.

Try this on for size:

Put down your box scores, and open your eyes, Clint. Players make plays that never show on stat sheets.

It's called cognative dissonance. When one is confronted by ideas or facts that are at odds with his pre-existing notions, the human psyche develops a static that has the power to distort or even block perception.
