Cannibal and Clint

What was that about 4th qtr comebacks?

------------------
Puttin' on my game face!

Clint - Because no one was foolish enough to say the defense would never help in a 4th qtr win....

While you WERE foolish enough to state that Grbac would not ever have another 4th qtr win.

You were wrong.

Does any credit go to the receivers? Gonzo had a great day. I am so happy he got his TD [img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]! Alxander had some big catches, and my man Lockett had a couple of big cathes ( one of wich he caught while falling down ). I know you Grbacers are trying to give your guy some credibility, but just remember that some one had to catch the passes.

Clint,

First at least you showed up here, where is Cannibal?

I will give you credit for showing up. I will even give JRaye some credit, not a great game called but he did not go completely conservative or hog wild throwing when behind. Balanced in the face of not being able to run is to his credit. Now will you give Elvis his credit for an 80 yard comeback drive and a win?

Please no squiggles in my discussion zone!

True. Props to them for not dropping 9 balls like week 1.

Besides, I give Tony G huge props in my other post below. Also, I give Lockett the heads up play of the day catching that 3rd down pass after he stumbled, and props to Alexander for going up and getting the winning TD pass. The Cat, well he needs more time in the system it seems. But he's going to be a good one...

RaiderHader - No one has taken credit away from anyone for this game. But facts is facts as Mr. Berra used to say. Grbac did what he was supposed to do and won a game in a very hostile atmosphere, and he deserves the credit - regardless of what backpedalling Clint has to do.

[shakesthecat]

I don't care who we give the credit to, it seems there are a lot that deserve it, lets just savor the victory. That has to be one of the first come from behind, 4th qtr, victories in quite some time. Good job, to all, both offense and defense. And the coaches to for that matter.

[Cannibal]

Exactly Red. Give this victory to the TEAM. Hopefully it is the type of thing that brings the team together and propells us like the 1997 MNF win...

[Mosbonian]

DaWolf,

I think the Cat was a victim of the officials letting the Denver D'backs get away with murder, especially Crockett.

[DIEHARDCHIEF]

Jeez!

I find it amazing that some people can't just enjoy the victory and instead have to criticize?

Yes, Grbac played a poor game today(for the most part), BUT he stepped up and made the plays when he had to!

A come from behind 4th quarter victory by Elvis AT Mile High is no small feat!

Time to give credit where credit is due.

[KCWolfman]

Wolfman, if Grbac had done what he was supposed to do then the game would not have been so close. Grbac is an average QB AT BEST. Look, I have a policy of not saying anything negative after the win until the day after, but you Grbacers are trying to make EG look like a saviour wich he is not! I know you guys are just trying to defend your guy, but lets not get to carried away. Kudos to the defense, they kept giving us a chance until something was done with the opportunity!

TBT:

Exactly....

I can remember John Elway, Dan Marino and Joe Montana playing poorly throughout the game and then suddenly just when you think you can put one in the books they lead their team to victory in the closing minutes.

Now Elvis is no where close to them in talent, but the point is that they found a way to overcome poor play and led their teams to victory. Elvis, the Defense, and the rest of the team sucked it up and did to Denver what they had done to us many times during the Elway years, break the heart of the other team with a last minute comenback victory.

BTW:

Did everyone else like that move that Dennis put on Anderson to get to Frerotte and strip the ball and cause the fumble. That was great!!!!

I need to point something out, even though there will be those that argue before they go check...

The INT Elvis threw that was returned for a TD was not his fault.

He was scrambling to the right, threw a rope to Alexander on a crossing pattern. After Elvis lets go, Derrick pulls up on his pattern. If he doesn't, it's a perfect pass and worst case for us is pass interferrence against Denver.

You can clearly see this only from the endzone replay angle. I don't know what was going through DA's head, but that, along with the drop on the first play of the game and one other had me calling for his head until he redeemed himself with the winning TD reception.

Luz
incedently, it was also alexander on the other interception...

[DaKCMan AP]

Luz - I saw that too, have no idea what happened there.

[AustinChief]

I saw ALOT of bad route running. It looked like both DA and SlyMo were sloppy.
