Guns defense has actually been worse then GRobs

Gun 435 points allowed
Grob 332 points allowed
Grob's 1st year 344 points allowed

Gun 377.3 yards per game allowed
Grob 356.7 yards per game allowed
Grob's 1st year 346.4 yards per game allowed

Gun Turnover forced 20
Grob Turnovers forced 37
Grob's 1st year Turnovers forced 26

In every meaningful category Grob's defense was better than Gunthers.

Edit someone wanted first years compared so I added that as you can see Grob's _efense was still clearly better than Guns even comparing first years.

Exactly. In all honesty, GRobs' scheme is probably better suited to our crappy players. He played alot of zone coverage and they played so far off their man to help keep everything in front of them instead of Man to man to help protect our crappy corners. We did have a much better pass rush out of Gunther than Grob could ever dream of. No surprise there.

The turnovers is the big thing. I think it's pretty amazing that despite that massive gap in turnovers we're still only 20 yards/game worse than last year... maybe that should be about right, I don't know, seems like that gap should be bigger.

Well lets see we got two whole players different under Gun last year and we managed to get much worse. So at that rate in 5 years we should be able to get an entire defense on the field of Guns player and maybe get better instead of worse. I mean after all that is all he accomplished last year was 2 players.

Hey Vlad, since you seem to be happy dissin' Gun and using stats to "back it up", can you do me one favor?

Combine ANY three years (I'll even let you include last years) of Gun's defenses with the Chiefs. Compare those stats to the three year reign of GROB. Although to be truly fair to Gun, you should take 3 consecutive of his years, but you can include this year anyway.

After you have done this and reported back, I will consider your post as an informational product worthy of discussion/debate. Until then, I'll try and realize you are not Taco John, even though your thread is more typical of post trolling to incite people.

Actually I would say Fujuita improved under Robinson and got worse under Gun. I would also say that Maslowski got better under Robinson until he got injured. Woods could be a third that got better under Robinson but the injury year in the middle kind of skews that one.

Remember folks, Gunther did say he could get it turned around. His "guys" like Jerome Woods, Greg Wesley, Eric Hicks, Eric Warfield, William Bartee, and John Browning … all players who Gunther had a hand in developing were here.

I do remember one quote:
“We’ve got talent here, some of these guys have to play better. I think we’ll get them to do that.”

I think you are correct. After 3 years of having no talent Robinson was able to design a defense, as bad as it was, that would slowly bleed to death while occassionally creating some turnovers. Gunther thought the talent level was better, designed a more aggressive defense that got more sacks but gave up more big plays and didn't create turnovers.

They both sucked. Past experience tells us however that Gunther can field a good defense. Whether he's given the tools to do it, is another question.

Although I think the D improved a little over last year (tougher schedule), given what Philips did in SD and Williams did in Washington, it's obvious that Gunther is no D guru.

The forced TOs numbers are a little shocking.

I'm not sure Gunther even deserves mention this year. I would note a few others ahead of him in line:
Romeo Crennel / Patriots
Jim Johnson / Eagles
Dick LeBeau / Steelers
Monte Kiffin / Buccaneers

Gunther claimed he could get these guys turned around and HE DID NOT. I think most will cut him some slack because of his legacy from '95 - '98. However, I doubt Gunther will reach the defensive production he got from those years. It helps when you have some talent, like he did in Derrick Thomas, Neil Smith, Dale Carter, James Hasty, and Dan Saleamua, etc.

Id still much rather have an attack style defense that actually tries to get some disruption going against the offense, that one that is taught to play 10 yards off the line and avoid contact whenever possible.

In Greg Robinson's schemes, guys would play 5 yards off the receivers, ON THE F'ING GOAL LINE!!

Hello?!?

Anyone else see a problem with that?

Grobs schemes were pretty much turn and run away when the ball is snapped, let the offense do their thing, and then at the very last minute, try to do something about it.

Gunther's scheme tries to destroy the play as soon as it begins.

All Gun really needs in his defense to have success is ONE good shutdown corner, and a good pass rusher.

Our corners quite frankly, suck. We have a decent prospect for a pass rusher in Jared Allen, and if Eric Hicks would get the lead out, he could return to his 14 sack season form. If we had one good, kickass corner, I think Eric Warfield is good enough to cover a team's number 2 guy. Mcleon would move to nickel, where there isnt as much pressure.

Greg Robinson ran shit that didnt make any sense. Safeties running to the opposite sides of the field at the snap of the ball, sending his corners to the line, just announcing to everyone that there is a corner blitz coming....I mean come on. He says he likes to create confusion for the opposing offense, but all he did was confuse his own players. Theres a reason safeties cover their own side of the field, and not run 50 yards at the snap of the ball to try to get to the other side of the field in time.

Because it doesnt work.

I will say though that it was neither coordinator's fault that the KC defenders just suck at tackling. You can only show a guy how to do something so many times. Eventually, he either gets it, or he never will.

The KC defenders seem to think that its illegal to use their arms to tackle opposing ball carriers. They like to slam into them, bounce off, and stare at them wondering why they didnt go down. And the most recent case, the final game of the season against San Diego, their second string running back was getting 5-10 yards after first contact. When a scrub is dragging your starting defenders down the field, its time for some new talent.

I have the utmost faith in Gunther Cunningham. I think he went too easy on the defense this year, choosing a more friendly approach. I think once we get the guy back that puts sailors to shame on the sidelines, youll see better reactions from the players. These guys have been cottled for 4 seasons by Dick Vermiel, been taken by the hand, and had a shoulder to cry on with Dick telling them that its OK, that it was the OFFENSE'S fault that they lost the game because they could have scored more points and didnt.

Bullshit.

Its time the defense grew a set of balls, and took it upon themselves to start winning some football games.

Gunther brings the attitude, he just didnt apply it like he did in his last run here. If Gun gets his choice of who to release and who to bring in, I think that there will be a much improved unit taking the field next season.

Greg Robinson has been consistently bad wherever he was. Look at his years with Denver. The only reason they won those championships was because of John Elway, and circumventing the salary cap. His numbers on defense there were horrendous as well.

G-Rob has never had years like Gunther had from 95-98. And lets not forget who Robinson had in denver either. He had several pro bowlers on that defense, and still gave up tons of yardage and points.

I hate to admit it, since I thought Gunther could improve the D, but Vlad is right, Gunther didn't get it done.

I would add, however, that offense was up league-wide this year and the chiefs played a much tougher schedule, so those things account for some of the discrepency in sats. But, even so, Gun did not put a respectable D on the field.

I was surprised that Gun went with so many blitzes when teams were still in their own side of the 50, given our terrible D performance. I would not have used a GRob approach, but I would have used more cautious approach until the opposing team hit our 35. (Not bringing those all out blitzes).

I will say, in my own defense, that I DID want to see them bring in D talent. I thought sitting on a chance to improve a weak side of the ball a very negligent approach.

I really didn't think it was a bad idea to compare their production with essentially the same players.

The knock on GRob was that his scheme was too complex, so Gun changed that.... but, the results were still horribly bad. Last year, many of you vehemently said "it's not the players, it's the system". Now, you're saying "give Gun better players and see what happens".

That's all GRob ever wanted.

Vlad,

The stats you chose to build your case on do not begin to communicate what was seen on the field this year. I think the defense is improved and moving in the right direction, which is something I could not say after last season. Here are some things to consider:

Tougher Schedule
First Year New Scheme
Improved as Year Progressed
Much Improved Against the Run
Did A Good Job Against Denver (in KC) and Indy

I like Gun's scheme and style. What I appreciated the most was watching a defense that could force punts and create 3-and-out once in a while. CP just needs to get him some playmakers.

There is another big consideration I have not seen mentioned, the change in the rules in favor of the receivers. I would like to see the stats at the league level to see on average how many more yards and points teams gave up in general in the passing game this year.

Notice, the Chiefs defense is higher ranked after this season than last. In comparison to the league the defense did not get worse.

Speak for yourself...I believe it was lack of talent last year, too. Of course, that position netted me the predictable screams of kool aid drinker/homer/CP lover, etc.

Amen.

I said 3 years ago that Greg Robinson won 2 Super Bowls with Denver because he had BETTER TALENT, and was met with a chorus of boos.

For that alone (and beating the piss out of Denver) I am thankful to Gunther.

I remember the threads about how Gun could turn these turds into the old KC defenses..we didn't need Hasty or Carter or DT or Saleamua etc....the facts speak for themselves, Gunther's was worse than GR's and many of the players were actually WORSE under Gunther....doesn't mean he won't be successful, eventually, but you can't pretend it isn't true...hell, Gunther even had Dalton and Allen..

Well lets see we got two whole players different under Gun last year and we managed to get much worse. So at that rate in 5 years we should be able to get an entire defense on the field of Guns player and maybe get better instead of worse. I mean after all that is all he accomplished last year was 2 players.

Dude, the schedule was MUCH harder. MOF it was about as far apart as I have seen two schedules. The O's we had to deal with were much, much more difficult. We certainly have more than one year to judge Gunther by as a defensive coordinator in KC as well. I like gun as our D coordinator, we just need to get him some more talent in there. Many of the players had to adjust to a new defensive scheme as well which takes time. When listing your facts that were relevant I noticed you missed all of these. Frankly I am a little surprised to see you have such a hard on for ol Gun.
