ROME WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY - Page 2

chiefscafan · 01-12-2005, 02:59 PM

Guys i've been on this board checking things and i don't like the talk on here.

Everyone blames the D for this season and while they are to blame look at the way the o played at the begining of the season they gave games away.

I think you guys need to give gun time to rebuild this D some players on this team are playing better under gun than others. I have a feeling this is the last hurah for us to win the superbowl for a while so i think we are gonna add some young d players along with some quality free agents.

My idea is this .

I don't think we are that bad off i think what is a pressing need is four positions.

MLB Mitchell is always out of position

cb I still question whether Warfield is that good but we definitely need a good cb oppisote him.

DE I'm done watching hicks go through the motions and then jump on someone else's sack so he gets credit.

FS Keep Wesley I think woods got old all of a sudden it's sad but it might be the truth or maybe he isn't fully back from the injury.

I'm in the Kendrel Bell or Hartwell camp for MLB

DE I get out of the draft

CB I give major money to one of the great ones in FA
Maybe a young one to replace warfield

In a dream world I'd love a guy like Derrick JOhnson

What we lack is a Playmaker on D a guy with fire who would fire up this team.

OUr d isn't that bad add a ray lewis type of guy the D would play with attitude and heart.

The only way i go with O in the draft is if Mike Williams or Braylon Edwards is there. I still think we need to get a # 1 receiver to take pressure off Gonzalez, holmes, and Johnson.

ok sorry for the long synopsis i just needed to get this off my chest.

RED STORM 2005???? let's hope so

Maybe it wasn't built in a day, but I'll bet it was looking pretty good after 34 years.

I think Vermeil views his defensive roster more as ROM than Rome.

Rome wasn't built in a day, but at some point someone actually picked up a shovel.

Excellent!

Read only memory? That was more like Robinson.

In this case, the reader correctly decoded the abreviation, but failed to see the analogy between read only memory in a computer and the reluctance of the coach to modify or "edit" his defensive roster. In cases where the turn of a phrase is not immediately obvious, the reader may either experience a bit of extra pleasure in the complexity of the joke, or may consider it not to be funny in the least.

Rome may not be burning but it's definitely IMPLODING!

DAMMIT, CARL!!

Before anyone slams me let me say the Chiefs need much better production at MLB, 3 CB's, and FS. I also agree that another young DE is needed.

Now for my point, I believe if the Chiefs had a CB opposite Warfield perform as well as Champ Bailey did this year they would have won 3 more game and made the playoffs.

I don't think this D can be turned into a top 5 D in one year, but a top tier CB and MLB could turn them into a top 15 or better. They need veteran leadership at MLB and real talent in the secondary. But, this defense will not get better with more veterans like Holliday, McCleon, and Barber.

OMG. So true.

Unless there is a major defensive overhaul, expect the same wonderful season next year.

I seriously doubt there will be major changes, thought we may use our first round draft and get a punter and the second choice will be a kicker.

Then of course no one will be picked up on free agency. I hear they may switch Dexter and dante....that way Dexter can be a widereceiver.

Dante would make a killer replacement.
