Chiefs' offense: "one of the worst in the league, by nearly every measure"

http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2013/9...chiefs-offense

some numbers to chew on from arrowhead pride

Quote:
The Chiefs are actually 12th in the league in PPG, at 23.7. But if you take away the 14 points the defense is directly responsible for, that number drops to 19 PPG, which would be tied for 23rd - with the Raiders. The Chiefs are relying on the defense to score points, which isn't good. Defensive scoring is random and shouldn't be part of the game plan. They didn't need Tamba Hali's pick-6 to beat the Jaguars, but they did need Eric Berry's against the Eagles.

They also are just not moving the ball; their 333 yds/gm is 21st in the league and their 4.9 yds/play ranks 25th. "Well Kyle," you may ask, " if the Chiefs offense is so bad, how are they undefeated this year?" That's an excellent question, thank you for asking. The answer is that the defense and special teams are much, much better than we thought.
Quote:
The problem the Chiefs are having is getting to the Red Zone in the first place. They're 30th in yards per drive, with only Tampa Bay and Jacksonville behind them, and Cleveland directly in front of them (not good company to be in). This is a really, really bad offense. But here's the real kicker: the Chiefs' offense has the best starting field position in the NFL this year, and still can't score.
Quote:
The Chiefs average 17 yards per drive better field position than their opponents (ok, ok, 16.95), the best mark in the NFL (2nd table). Only two other teams average more than 10 yards better starting field position than their opponents (New England and Chicago). The Chiefs' average starting line of scrimmage (LOS) is their own 36.97 yard line (best in the NFL), while their opponents average starting LOS is their own 20.02 yard line (also best in the NFL). What all of that means is the Chiefs's offense is handed consistently great starting field position and can't do anything with it, then they let the special teams pin opponents deep in their own territory. The defense bails out the offense by not letting opponents move the ball, giving the offense the ball back with great starting field position. Lather, rinse, repeat.
There's a nice breakdown of our defense against philly over there as well:
http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/9/2...p-kelly-eagles

Quote:
I have to reiterate and emphasize just how much the Chiefs played man to man -- like a ton of it. And they have the secondary to handle it, unlike most teams in the NFL. Specifically, they matched up Sean Smith on Cooper a lot on the outside. If this had been a prize fight, Cooper's corner would have thrown in the towel somewhere around the middle of the second quarter. Smith owned him right up until the end of the game when he started cramping up. Cooper just couldn't shake him, especially on those aforementioned deep routes Kelly had him running all game.

mods, could you lock this thread? it's very existence is an affront to their opinions...thanks
So you're saying you want Alex Smith to throw 17 interceptions and go 0-3?

You don't see the irony? You think if every ****ing thread wasnt turned into a Geno discussion I would bring him up?

You know who the first person to bring up Geno was in this thread? OTWP.

But many of you fellas have a lot easier time knocking down straw-men of your own creation so you continue to make them.

That's fine, but you're 'rebutting' arguments that were largely never made.

I don't think the Bucs 45 is well out of field goal range but I have no earthly idea who their kicker is.

The 7 secs is iffy. You've got enough time for a few concepts that could work the ball 6-12 yards and get out of bounds but it's unlikely imo.

7 seconds left and 8-10 yards to be well within field goal range. You were WRONG. WRONG WRONG WRONG. Be a man and own it.

No wait, the only game we have been behind in the offense drove down and scored to take the lead back.
To me this says our defense is good, not our QB. I don't give a shit what Geno does or doesn't do, but you guys are defending Alex Smith with his win record, and dismissing Geno Smith when he wins. Neither qb really had a great game, but Alex Smith wins games!!!!!11111eleven and Geno is a bust.

The OL had to be addressed in the draft. Plain and simple. Whether it works out or not remains to be seen but it is what it is. Move on and support your team!

Yeah, that victim mentality works great right after you throw out passive-aggressive shots over the bow like "Well if we had drafted Geno the SB would be an option this year. "

It's like you can't leave it alone. Literally nobody else was talking about anything that had anything to do with that. Yet there you go.

I've seen teams pull that off before in similar situations. But yeah a TO in the bag would have helped.

Folk is the kicker with a long of 56. So they needed about 6-8 yards in 7 secs.

It's definitely doable.


It'd be an interesting stat to pull up.

You've referred to me twice in this thread as being "obtuse" because I disagreed with you.

Well, you sure showed me!
