Chiefs' defense is on its way to being historically bad
http://espn.go.com/blog/kansas-city-...storically-bad
CINCINNATI -- In an effort to figure out how historically bad this year’s Kansas City Chiefs defense is trending to be, I found something it has already done that defenses run by Greg Robinson and Romeo Crennel never did. That alone makes it bad. The Chiefs have allowed 30 or more points in three straight games within a season for the second time in franchise history. The other time was in 1987 but that one comes with a huge asterisk. The Chiefs used replacement players during the labor strike for two of those games. The Chiefs have allowed 321 yards passing in each of their last two games. That’s an incredible stat considering they haven’t led during either game and the opponent didn’t have to throw. The Packers and Bengals just found it so easy they didn’t want to stop. You could say the Chiefs were ripped the last two weeks by the two top-rated quarterbacks in the league, Aaron Rodgers and Andy Dalton. That’s true, but that’s still an unusual happening in Chiefs history. They’ve allowed 321-plus passing yards in three straight games twice and 321-plus in two straight games two other times. But it’s the points where the Chiefs are truly embarrassing themselves. They are on a pace to allow exactly 500, which would blow away the franchise record of 440, set by the 2008 Chiefs. That team, by the way, finished 2-14. |

The defense didn't allow 30 points vs. Denver

I have to think the loss of BIG CAT is a huge part of this.
That was a double digit sack guy we gave up on! |

Hunt's are getting fleeced once again with this coaching staff.

This defense sucks because our D-Coordinator is an idiot and Hali's wheels have fallen off. The pass rush has REALLY exposed our missing CB's.
And our D-Coordinator is an idiot. |

If you think we will follow this trend through 16 games you're a complete moron

We just faced two HOF QBs.
Two top 5 offensive teams. Three top 5 teams. |

I don't think the defense is as bad as they've performed in the last 2 weeks.....but they've shown that they're definitely not a top 5 defense. Tackling is shitty. The DC refuses to adjust during the game. No ****ing passrush.

And there's no doubt about that. Anyone that wasn't a homer could have guessed as much heading into this season, though. Last year we had a collection of guys that overachieved their asses off. A regression was inevitable. |

His fail isn't even the same ball park as Reid.
Reid has had horrible in game decision making, horrible play calling, as well as at least some say in the roster. And Sutton hasn't been that good so far but he's at least had success in the past to look back on....

Our defense is probably close to middle of the pack
