My personal grades for the Chiefs - Page 2

Clint in Wichita · 09-03-2000, 07:37 PM

Coaching - D

The team was obviously not ready for what they faced today. The offensive playcalling was HIDEOUS...so much for the "wide open" offense we've been hearing about for 2 offseasons now, even when the Chiefs are behind. The special teams unit looked more like the Special Olympics today...was there ever any doubt that Stock should've been unemployed before the Super Bowl last year?

QB - D-

Grbac was vicimized by drops, but he was VERY off today. Numerous passes were amazingly off-target, and he missed streaking, wide open WRs on at least two occasions. The game-killing INT was the icing on the cake.

TE - D-

Maybe "incomplete" would be a better grade. The TEs were a non-factor...the best TE in the NFL was nowhere to be found today.

O line - C

Good pass protection, below average run blocking. Tait made a ho out of Bratzke(sp).

WRs - D

Would've been an "F" had Morris not shown why he should be the #1 WR right now. DA apparently has chosen to take the first half of the season off this year, rather than the second. Lockett gave some great efforts on poorly thrown balls, and Parker was a non-factor.

RBs/FBs - D

An "F" without TR. Why the "starter" only got 13 carries is beyond me. I also found it interesting that Cloud is now receiving fewer carries than any active HB or FB except for Anders, after being the starter until a few days ago. Continued...

Oops... forgot most important...

Coaching: F

They should have been ready. They refuse to be ready. The coaching is the biggest reason we did not win today...<BR>

Fly...did you not see Lockett catch EVERYTHING thrown his way? Morris is the real deal...but without Lockett we do not move the chains.

Duck Dog - "...without Lockett we do not move the chains." OK now, Lockett caught two passes (or one less than Morris). From memory, at least two of Morris' were for 1st downs, and probably all three. Two were great leaping grabs if my memory is correct. Morris is a playmaker AND he can catch. Lockett can only do the latter IMO. We all know you like Lockett, but I think you're giving him way too much credit.
