Prediction for the Chiefs 2007 Offense: 32nd in passing offense, Bottom 5 in total O. - Page 6

FloridaMan88 · 04-16-2007, 08:09 AM

No Trent Green, No Will Shields, No Dante Hall, No substantial upgrades to the worst WR corp in the NFL, the worst trio of QBs in the NFL, the most conservative head coach with regards to offense in the NFL, the biggest stiff/puppet/joke of an offensive coordinator in the NFL all will equate to one of the worst offense's in franchise history and in the NFL next season.

I predict:

1) A passing offense that ranks 32nd (that is dead last in the NFL) in yards per game and total passing yards for the season.

2) A total offense that ranks in the bottom 5 in the NFL (28th, 29th, 30th, 31st, 32nd) in total yards per game and total yards for the season.

It burns you up to know that DV built the best O in Chief's History. You will do anything to discredit him. The Roaf comment shows your true colors and your real intent. There is no question DV failed to produce a decent D, but your comment regarding his O is quite ridiculous and only makes you look ridiculous as well.

If there is one thing I like about Edwards it's his commitment to the young players. In time this could result in both a top 10 offense and defense.

I hope you are right. I like his abilities choosing players come draft time, but I'm not sure how that will translates to a potent O.

The offensive line was down quite a bit last year, and this year it will be down again it sounds like. LT up, LG same, but other 3 positions down.

We don't have a solution at fullback. We have a running back who passed a plateau last year that no one has ever passed and been as productive again, and even he had trouble finding room to run last year at times.

Our QB situation is up in the air. If it's Huard, I have a feeling that he won't play at the level he did last year. If it's Croyle, we can just hope he learns and doesn't turn the ball over too much.

It's hard for me to see how we're going to score very many points. I know the defense should be better, but it seems unlikely for us to solve the problem at DT through the draft and considering we could be missing our best defensive player from last year for a good chunk of the season...

Not to be cliche, but I have a bad feeling about this. I'm not predicting last in the NFL... just that we are going to have a tough time getting to 20 some weeks.

I do too. I think we will improve to the Top 10 on D, but continue to sink on O. I'm not sure Herm and Solari have the goods to produce a decent O on the field even if we get the players eventually. All we can hope for is continue success in the upcoming drafts. Herm seems to have a knack in getting good young talent. Then in about 3 years we can get a new HC and new GM and finally start a new chapter here.

It doesn't burn me up at all. If you're willing to ignore REALITY, more power to you.

Me, I like to acknowledge fact and move on.

Fact: Dick Vermeil didn't BUILD anything. He traded draft picks for aging veterans on the downside of their career and struck gold. They drafted ONE offensive player worth a shit the whole time he was here, and he whined like a baby about that one.

Without Willie Roaf, people would be talking about whether Dick Vermeil even deserves to be mentioned with the great coaches in the game because his stint in KC would have been a 20-win DISASTER.

The offense they produced was INFINITELY better than the one Al Saunders produced.

It was interesting to watch NFL Live this morning and here them ponder, out loud, whether after this next season Saunders would be fired.

Part of my analysis comes from the fact I am a Chief faithful. I'm always going to look for a way to say they are doing the right think. Although, I will admit GROB stretched my imagination to the limit.

His possible firing has nothing to do with his abilities as OC. That has been proven for many years now. What about Gregg Williams and his lackluster performance last year. Both these guys have proven to be formidable coordinators.

It's called fighting fire with fire.

It's the price one has to pay to be the voice of reason here at Chiefsplanet, where everything yesteryear is GREAT and everything from today forward sucks.

Actually, it has everything to do with his abilities as OC.

Vermiels "building" put us in a spot of having an old rapidly declining offense and a shitty defense.....
