The Chiefs have the right idea…

We can argue that some of our coordinators are less than brilliant (and I will), and we can argue about whether our GM is terrible or great (I think he is very good), but specifics aside, the Chiefs are moving in the right direction.

The youth movement is necessary and for a team that hasn’t had much time to gel, they played pretty well together. The obvious areas that this lack of playing time together hurt us were in the defensive backfield and the passing game.

Our DBs have the potential to be one of our strongest units and I feel confidant that we will see consistent improvement here. Grbac has a history of being an accurate passer (especially on the long ball) and with experience throwing to Morris, Alexander, and Locket the timing will get better.

Through no design by the coaching staff, Trich will be moved back to his future Pro Bowl position and we should get a chance to see what Cloud and Moreau (especially Moreau) can do. This realistically could be a Dunn/Alstott type of backfield.

The first part of our schedule is a killer, but we can realistically go into the bye week 2-3 or 3-2! By the middle of October this team will be playing much better ball and with the remainder of our schedule, winning the division is certainly not out of the question.

Who knows? Maybe we’ll get hot just in time for the playoffs?!…<BR>
