Reid: Yeah, normally you would say that. Normally you'd say take care of your offensive line, defensive line, corners, and quarterback, you can compete in the National Football League.

...

When you analyze this part, we are really in pretty good shape. Got to re-sign Albert, but Albert and Winston at the Tackles. Winston probably is a really good team guy to have here... we just all hated he defended Cassel.

We have Hali and Houston as the two pass rushers.

We have Flowers as one of the corners. Probably could use an upgrade at the other, but we do have some young guys that have gained on-field experience that maybe will get better with an off-season running with the #1's. Or maybe the free agent route that they are scouting out. IIRC, Reid brought in several corners from other teams during his time in Philly.

We were 2-14 with nearly all of these pieces already in place. The arrow is pointed directly at the QB position.

Here's the problem I have with this philosophy.

Name me one truly outstanding defense that didn't have outstanding LB play.

Not following you MM.

Hali and Houston are our pass rushers... which are LB's. DJ is pretty good too.

My guess is Reid is still more programed to be thinking 4-3 when he says D-line play... even though D-line is a big piece of our LB's being able to make plays.

And to be fair MM, I did cut the rest of what Reid said off. He did say the rest of the positions are important as well.

But Reid also said he wasn't reading into things like footwork or hand size.....

Well again, you could make the case this QB truly had sh** to work with and got at least 3 wins.

CB, S, and ILB are spots I might try and target in free agency.

Rhodes in the second round would be nice.

Stewart: Some have tried to waterdown the quarterback position in the last ten years. I just need my guy to manage the game. Well the quarterback that's SuperBowl MVP didn't manage the game, he won the game. He made everybody better around him. Is that a mentality that you reject when people say that I just need my quarterback to be the manager?

Reid: Yeah! Listen I... the quarterback is an extention of whoever that offensive coach is, head coach whoever that is, that quarterback's that. And he's got to be that on the field. He has to be in charge, in this offense. Now there are different philosophies. But in this offense that is what he has to be. You look at the great ones, you mentioned them, right, you look at those guys, they all had that, ability to make everybody around them better and to win games.

...

Pretty telling stuff IMO.

Here is where I could roll tape of ***** talking about Matt's awesome checkdowns in preseason.

He literally said this on a preseason broadcast.

It's obvious now that Reid will go with Alex "Master WCO" Smith.

Since he said he doesn't want a game manager, but a QB who can elevate his teammates and win games... how did you come up with that?

He's a Jag's fan trolling on a Chiefs board.

That takes a special level of low intelligence.

What would you expect a coach to say?

And when they sign Smith he will just claim he is the guy that will elevate his teammates.
