No sense in waiting for this to end.

Break it down

Who, Baldwin? Let's hope so. He hasn't shown dick yet.

Got to feed the playmakers the ball. Dwayne Bowe is the same way got to keep them from feeling left out there on an island by themselves. That is the life of a WR. That also what you want is a guy who can progress during the game and get it rolling. I think that is on the QB to help guys build that confidence in them. Should have gone right back too him for that opportunity.

This is awful logic when the team is built the way it is. You cant have guys like Baldwin get upset when they dont "get theirs." We dont have Aaron Rodgers that can distribute it to 4 or 5 WRs at any given time. That is why the pick is basically not what fits the current team. You need players like Breaston that can compliment Bowe. Not guys like Baldwin and McCluster that expect to get their touches over better talent like Charles, Hillis, etc in the run game.

I dont think he is ready to go against the leagues #1 corners quite yet, but that he can beat #2 corners enough to be productive.

Once Bowe gets back into the lineup and other teams dont look at Baldwin as a focal point, he will be able to get some man up looks on guys that are 5-6 inches shorter than him, arent as fast and arent even close to as athletic.

Ill keep saying this...if Baldwin didnt break his hand in a locker room fight with Jones (who has had that problem almost everywhere he has played) he would have probably takenn our offense to another level last year and I think the same holds true this year for the kid.

If Cassel can continue to develop and improve...the skill position players on this team can begin to flourish at some point THIS YEAR.

Is it just me, or does it seem plausible that "the game has slowed down" for Matt Cassel?

We'll see. So far, he hasn't given me any reason to believe he's as good as Breaston, let alone be a #1.

Tonight's game was basically a team that came in way over confident against a team that had a major chip on its shoulder from last week's blowout. Chiefs thought they would walk in to St. Louis and roll the Rams like they did Arizona last week. Rams came out and knocked us in the mouth right off the bat and they didn't react until the second quarter. Starters started to get in the flow and by halftime they were playing pretty well. Regular season we probably turn it on in the second half and cruise to victory. Cassel played well for just dinking it down the field most of the night. I swear he is like somebody who has sports cars in the garage but drives around on the bicycle in the yard because its safer. Oh well, its nice to see him play well now for the idiots like Pioli and Pawnmower to yap it up now until we meet a legit playoff team and he shits himself. Life of a Chief fan. Stanzi played tonight like Cassel did against the Ravens. Holy shit, he ****ed himself. Oh well, 5th round picks don't win Super Bowls so no biggie in the scheme of things. Rams played like they wanted it more tonight, thats pretty much the bottom line tonight. Atlanta game can't come soon enough.

Dane provides a valuable service/presence to this community.

You may not always agree with him, but he isn't some dumbass loudmouth.

Dude knows more about this team than most here and isnt afraid to voice his opinion as loud as he wants.

FYI if you keep it cival with him and ask for his reasoning on his opinions, he will usually offer them up and more times than not, they might just change your own opinion.

But, if you chose to go down the road of "poking the bear with a stick" dont be shocked when you get a bear claw across the mouth...and one that doesnt have apple filling.

I don't think we'll know where Cassel is until five or six games ino the regular season. The early returns look promising but that could change quickly.

WTF has happened to Breaston this offseason?

Dude fell the **** off.

DMC is above him on the depth chart.

What gives?

Who knows? My gut tells me that Daboll is so confident in his ability that he's "testing" McCluster in an attempt to find a role for him in this offense.

But that is pure speculation on my part.

He may be a worthless piece of shit, but unfortunately he is the best piece of shit we have for 2012.

Maybe Daboll is to Cassel as Harbaugh is to Alex Smith.

I dont think its out of the realm of possibility to think this team can have a similar type of year as last years 49ers had if thats the case.

Then I would say that falls on the QB for not being good like Aaron Rogers lol.

I'd say your right, but I like to watch guys get "theirs" just to prove that they can be productive when they get it. If not then they are worthless to the team other than the big body for blocking is a big plus for Baldwin.

Any one notice McCluster trying to throw a block on a LB when we were down at the goal line? It was good effort, it was kind of funny, not a great block but he seemed to make the guy turn away from the ball carrier.

[BossChief]

One thing is absolutely certain.

This team needs it veterans and young veterans to step up this year ACROSS THE BOARD and this game should have been a HUGE wake up call to show how much more work they need to do if they want to be able to step up and play with the big boys.
