Chiefs Flowers vs Law

Law was just an example of what happens to guys at that position when they get old....which means Surtain will probably look like that this year, I hope to god this is his last year on the team.

I'm not sure he's even going to start. There's been a lot of talk of moving him to the slot, where he's still quick enough to make a difference. Lost his speed though.

Damn did we piss away a lot of money on Law and Surtain.

Flowers has a shot to be very good....but you won't be able to seriously compare him to (a young) Ty Law, until he has at least a year or two under his belt. Experience and game time...will show us whether or not he possesses the instincts, nose for the ball, and tenacity that Law demonstrated....especially, early in his career.

I'm not talking about a young Ty Law. Only the washed up, slow-as-molasses Ty Law we suffered watching last year.

Ty Law back with the Patriots*?

I heard Law was working out a deal with Belichick's* Patriots* or Dom Capers Patriots* True story.

I was happy we got both guys. Of course I'm not an NFL GM or anything.

I doubt it. Surtain has always been a faster player than Law. Law was always slow to begin with so him aging hurt him more than other players. Guys like Al Harris and Charles Woodson are as old as or older than Surtain and neither have shown signs of slowing down despite playing mostly man coverage and being on an island most of the time.

Dude, watch a game from last year. Surtain is slow now.

Build through the draft. Trading a 2nd rounder for Surtain and giving him a fat contract didn't help. Signing Harris to big money didn't help.

Honestly,I wish we would have been able to get rid of both Law and Surtain in the off season..... I remember when we first acquired him from the dolphins,I was freaking jumping for joy. What a waste he turned out to be
