Post in here if you thought the Chiefs had a good off season

[Titty Meat]

A lot of people defended that pile of shit off season calling guys like Vance Walker "a good signing". Here's your chance now that the season is over and the team has been exposed to eat your crow. I'm looking at you Marcellus.

I would have kept schwartz over albert

The last thing you want to do with this QB and this coach is get worse along the offensive line.


the only thing that got better THIS offseason is the the salary cap

rebuilding

You are absolutely nuts if you don't think we got a shitload better on defense. This is a very good defense even absent two pro bowlers.

This board bitched last year about how we beat up a terrible schedule and a bunch of backup qbs. Even in those games, we looked sloppy.

This year, we are playing excellent defense and running the ball well. The passing game took a step back but other than oline, their weapons on offense are better than last year's. Again, injuries at receiver don't help.

If Alex Smith closed his ****ing games and Andy Reid didn't constantly forget jamaal charles, this team would be in the playoffs against one of the hardest schedules in football. The team is better. We are over. 500 against a brutal schedule down several pro bowlers and we lost, what, 4 of 6 games on the final drive?

Keep in mind that Jeff Allen was supposed to be our starting LG.

I know he's not great, but he sure as **** wouldn't be Mike McGlynn.

People would still be flipping shit about the offensive line, but just that one addition would cut the number of times Alex had fewer than 2 seconds to get rid of the ball by half. And that would make this OL adequate for a QB to get the job done.

People would still bitch and say he has no time to throw, but they're reeruns.

Too early to tell with the draft, but I like the Gaines and DAT picks.

All the quality WR's were gone when DAT was drafted. Hell Albert Wilson looks better than all the WR's after the DAT pick.

It's the 1st round pick that will tell us about Dorsey. I like their thinking bc pass rusher is a top 3 need on a team, but looking at 2 QB's and 2 WR's looking real good after his pick will potentially cause uproar if Ford doesn't look good next season.

People here act like an oline is going to fix Alex Smith. It will undoubtedly make Smith better.

Unfortunately, the only thing I think will fix Alex Smith is our defense collapsing. It seems to be the only way Smith grows a pair. So whether our defense is bad or good, Smith will keep every game close, and then he has no ability to close the game on the final drive. Smith is the problem a lot moreso than the oline.

Don't forget Stephenson. He was supposed to be solid, but turned into Merroidman post bust.

That's not the question.

if we decide to let those guys leave then get quality replacements.

This team has less talent.

Abdullah and Parker were on the team last year so even the talent improvement at safety is questionable. I guess are backups at safety are better now.

QB - same players
RB - same players
WR - same players
Oline - much worse
TE - Same players, although Kelce is healthy now so the production has improved

Dline - few different players but the Jaye Howard is the only improvement. Hali(DE/OLB)Bailey and Poe were here last year
LB - few different players but same results due to injuries
DBs - switch from Flowers to Gaines, long term might be good but now it's cheaper not improved. Starting last year's backups at Safety. Improvement in depth at safety except we are using it at CB(parker)

Punter - same player
Kicker - improvement from Succup to Santos

Improving while not spending any money and getting 4 comp picks in the process, to me, is a good offseason. We went from being an overrated team barely beating backup qbs to a team that has looked competitive in almost every game against a brutal schedule. Our coaching and qb play are much more the reason for why we are underachieving.

The offensive line has been deteriorating for a couple of years now. Other than spending a draft pick on Fisher, they haven't done a thing about it but bring in scrubs and washouts.

We have not allowed 30 points or a 300 yard passed this season. In this day and age that is an accomplishment

I don't think Dorsey could do anything to change that.

Flowers was cut so late bc we got more money to the cap. And we used some of it to give to Charles. No problem with that. Flowers isn't very good anymore.

They could have designated him a June 1 cut way back in February...they didn't need to wait.

That's from scheme, not talent.

Sutton dumped his aggressive Bear style defense so we stopped giving up 40 yard passes 2 or 3 times a game.
