Chiefs Notebook:Baldwin may be bigger part of game plan Sunday
Baldwin may be bigger part of game plan Sunday
By RANDY COVITZ The Kansas City Star Chiefs wide receiver Jon Baldwin could be a bigger part of the game plan on Sunday at Buffalo, said offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. Baldwin, who was a standout during training camp, saw limited action in last week’s season opening loss to Atlanta and was not the target of any passes. Daboll said Atlanta’s two-deep zones were more favorable for throwing to the tight ends in the middle of the field as opposed to throwing to wide receivers on the sidelines. “Each week is a different week with different defenses that guys face,” Daboll said. “Sometimes there are spots in the middle of the field that we’re working a little bit. The tight ends had some passes; (slot receiver) Dexter McCluster had some passes.” Indeed, McCluster caught a team-leading six passes; tight end Tony Moeaki had three; and tight end Kevin Boss had two catches, including a 22-yard touchdown on a post pattern. “Sometimes there’s more single (safety coverage) where you work outside,” Daboll said. “You don’t want to force issues. There are different formations you can use to move around guys. We were in a little bit no huddle and going fairly quick. “Jon has had a positive attitude throughout camp. He had a positive attitude after this game. We’ll see what happens this week.” Daboll returns home Chiefs offensive coordinator Brian Daboll was born across the border from Buffalo in Welland, Ontario, but grew up in Buffalo, attended St. Francis High School in Buffalo and started for two seasons at safety at nearby University of Rochester. Best of all, as an assistant at New England (2001-06), New York Jets (2007-08), Cleveland (2009-10) and Miami (2011), his teams are 8-3 in games at Buffalo. “It’s good to go home,” Daboll said. “But we’re going there for a reason.” As a teenager, Daboll was a big fan of the Bills’ four Super Bowl teams during 1990-1993. “Those were some fun years when the team was winning,” Daboll said. “They had good support. I have fond memories from back in the day when I was a youngster.” Pioli appointed to council Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli is one of 13 appointees by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to the Bill Walsh NFL Minority Coaching Fellowship Advisory Council. The concept was introduced by the late Bill Walsh to expose minority college coaches to the NFL’s methods and philosophies. The 13-member council comprised of club presidents, general managers, head coaches and assistant coaches will focus on developing a pipeline of minority coaches, including former NFL players pursuing opportunities in the coaching profession. “It is imperative we continue to create opportunities, not only in coaching but in every other aspect of the league,” Pioli said. “This fellowship program is important as long as we continue to teach and mentor individuals with one basic premise in mind, to educate.” Draughn fined Chiefs running back Shaun Draughn was fined $7,875 for unnecessary roughness against Atlanta during Sunday’s loss at Arrowhead Stadium. Draughn got into a pushing match with Atlanta’s Christopher Owens in the fourth quarter. Bills’ Dareus ‘focused’ Buffalo defensive tackle Marcell Dareus, who missed one day of practice to be with his family in Alabama after the murder of his younger brother in a triple shooting last weekend, will play on Sunday against the Chiefs. “I got caught up with everything and got acclimated with the game plan,” Dareus told reporters in Buffalo. “I am focused. I know I have a lot of things going on off the field, but I am here and ready to play. I have 60-more brothers here and ready to support me as well.” Injury update The Chiefs said nose tackle Anthony Toribio (ankle), safety Kendrick Lewis (shoulder), and defensive lineman Allen Bailey (ankle) were limited in practice on Friday, while wide receiver Devon Wylie (hamstring) did not practice. It’s doubtful any of them will be available on Sunday. |

Lets trade Bowe before the deadline for a 2nd round pick (or maybe a 1st?) and then use that as ammunition to go after a QB (assuming we win just enough games to keep us from picking high enough to get one of the Tylers)
Would you rather have Bowe or a QBOTF? (unproven, albeit) |

Steve Breaston would be far better in the slot, but Baldwin sucks, so Breaston has to start. Congrats, DMC on taking advantage of teh suck of Jon Baldween.

What makes you so sure Breaston would be far better in the slot? Is it his past experience playing the slot? Oh... wait...

Bigger? Faster? Better hands? More experience? Can run routes past 10 yards?
Jesus ****.

Oh look, he's running a route from the slot here: Steve Breaston can play all 3 WR positions. There's no ****ing way Dexter McCluster is better at anything than Steve Breaston. He's better than Jon Baldwin, though. And that's sad.

I hope he finds a void in the defense 1 yard past the first down marker in a game on 3rd and 1. He's already been on the field for 3rd and 1, something you said wouldn't happen. Only a matter of time. |

Listen to yourselves. Dex has one decent game and now he's better than Steve Breaston. And you wonder why I've gone insane.

Think you need to listen to yourself.
Dexter player 2 seasons under Haley, a guy that had no clue wtf he was doing. Daboll comes in and now McCluster looks like the best receiver on the team. He was talked up all offseason. Then came preseason... Then came game 1... |

He is bigger, taller, just as fast, stronger, heavier, can jump higher, is heavier. The only thing that Breaston beats him at is experience and Baldwin isn't going to get any sitting on the bench. What does Breaston offer, physically, that Baldwin doesn't? Last edited by pr_capone; 09-15-2012 at 08:29 PM.. |

Baldwin sitting behind Breaston doesn't make sense to me, either. He's made a solid career out of being a #3 receiver but he offers nothing over Baldwin. What are we going to miss out on by getting Baldwin experience?
