The Chiefs front office just needs to bite the bullet and perform a massive housecleaning. These guys here, ABSOLUTELY have to go.
Johnnie Morton has never played up to the contract that he was given. The guy is making damn near the yearly salary that Tony Gonzalez is making. Tony G- 102 catches, 1200+ yards. Johnnie Morton, 55 catches and a load of plays that he just flat ass blew or quit on. Morton is washed up, and needs to go. Eric Hicks had ONE decent season waay back before Gun was let go, he had 14 sacks in 13 games, and he hasnt done jack since then. Looks like he was a one year wonder, and its time for someone else to get a shot at it. Jared allen came in and in his first season, not even playing every game blew away everyone else on the team in terms of sacks. Hicks didnt even come close. William Bartee- Heh. No explanation needed. Jerome Woods. 32 years old, obviously lost a step and plagued by injuries of late. Its time for Jerome Woods to go, and bring in someone who can shore up the free safety position. I like Woods, I think he has a lot of heart and character, but he doesnt have the skill anymore. Ryan Sims- Holy God what a bust. 15 tackles on the entire season. Get rid of this lazy bastard and give someone else a shot. They certainly couldnt do any worse than ALMOST a one tackle per game average. Kawika Mitchell- Ive never seen anyone get blocked more than this guy. Its like he seeks out someone to block him, and makes a beeline toward him to take himself out of the play. Get lost Mitchell. Vonnie Holliday- Huge Contract, very little payoff on the field. His huge roster bonus due this year is reason enough to cut him loose. Jared Allen took his job from him, and never looked back. Mike Maslowski- Never was the fastest, and now the bum knee. He's not getting any younger. As with woods, I love the guy, but he just doesnt have what it takes to get this defense to the next level. There are others who could probably get the axe and I wouldnt mind, but all of the above really need to be let go.

Defense Homers rejoice...your time is at hand...
Vermeil [and Peterson?] will be gone in 2006. Time enough then for a “massive housecleaning." This off-season should [and most certainly will] be about upgrading the Defense in a hurry. In free agency, we need a starting CB & MLB. This will NOT be cheap. In the draft, we need OLB & DE. Gone are: Battle Bartee Woods Maslowski [sorry, man] Holliday Morton Blaylock [because someone is going to give him some money] xoxo~ Gaz Hopes to see some D next season. |

Secondary:
Of course we have to get a new corner. That's a given. As for our weakness at safety, I wonder if those problems might be fixed with a new secondary coach. Guinta sucks. Of course, we've seen what kind of panacea a mere coaching change is without the personnel changes to reinforce it. That being said, I'm not sure that new personnel with the same old position coach will help either.

CP, fix the secondary!
I would like to see a real MLB also, but fix the secondary. Another DE would make a positive difference, but fix the secondary. Morton needs to be replaced, BUT FIX THE SECONDARY!!! |

LBs are bad to average. We need 2 new starters, at the least. DL is average, at best. We need better production up the middle, and a new starter to replace Hicks. FIX THE D.

I think like many others the way to fix a defense is the front 7. With the way the NFL is handcuffing the DBs there is no reason to waste huge dollars at those positions. Generate a pass rush, pressure the QB into making a mistake or get the sack. It will only get worse for DBs in the future as the NFL wants NBA type scores.

It's not possible to fix all of it in one season. We could sign a CB, MLB and DE/pass rusher in one off season. Hit the draft for duture stars all on defense in ther first 3 rounds.
I would go DE, CB, OLB with the first 3 picks but maybe not in that order.

I would like to expand on milkman's comments...
SECONDARY: We need a CB. A good, solid starter. Forget this “shutdown corner” crap. He does not exist. Champ Bailey was kind enough to provide clear, lucid [and funny] illustrations of that this season. The term “shutdown corner” is false in the modern NFL. Still, our CBs are SO bad that we need an upgrade, even in the modern NFL. CB in FA. I would also consider drafting a young CB in the 2nd or 3rd Round [only if there is not a spongeworthy DE & OLB]. Woods appears to be done. Time for a young gun to take over. Bring on Harts. No FA or draft action at Safety. DL: We have not had sustained interior pressure from our DL. That is a serious problem. However, with draft picks invested in Sims and Siavii, we simply cannot afford to spend more money at that position. No draft or FA action at DT. I do not believe that Hicks will be cut [despite angry yapping from the mob], but I would like to see the potential for an upgrade. To that end, I would like to see a DE in the draft. DE is a position that can come in and contribute immediately. Sure, he will share time with Hicks and Allen, but will have a chance to seize a starting role. DE or OLB is where I would spend my 1st Rounder. LB: Despite the anguished howls for the mythical “shutdown corner,” here is the real weakness in the Chiefs Defense. Fujita appeared lost on several occasions. Mitchell appeared lost on most occasions. We need a starting MLB & OLB. There are no worthy MLBs in the draft, so OLB is the draft option. We will have to get our starting MLB in FA. OFFENSE: We can draft some OL replacements in the last half of the draft. That is it for you Offense Homers. No draft for you!!! xoxo~ Gaz Sees this as doable [since it is “do or die” time for Vermeil]. |

I'm beginning to agree with that Hunter S. Thompson article that was written after the Chiefs vs. Tenn. game where he talked about their being three teams on the field: the Chiefs, the Titans, and the Zebras.

I agree with almost everything you said, but not this. Channing Crowder is definately a worthy MLB in the draft who can come in and start immediately.
