I'm always interested to read GoChief's expert insight on just about any topic. He has always been very opinionated about Bernard Pollard and I'd love to hear what he has to say after last night's game. Please post your thoughts as well. I personally think that we look like complete fools for releasing him at this point.

I'll give him credit for his one pass defensed, but he looked like he always did here. Out of position, and late to the ball. The Titans ran for 228 yards for christs sake, and the middle of the field (you know, where safties play) was wide open most the night. Still no big loss here.

Pollard is a liability. Always was, always will be. We would have been replacing him anyway. He yelled at a coach, he got released. Who cares? I'm glad he's gone. I want a REAL safety. Eric Berry Please.

I swear I've never seen a player get more attention for mediocrity in my life. Jimmy Wilkerson is having a much better year than Pollard is and he is hardly ever mentioned on here. I would bet my life's savings that we would still be no better than 3-7 right now if we would have kept Pollard. I've said it before and I guess I'll say it for the fifth time, LET IT GO PEOPLE!!!

The Chiefs have one won more game than they did a year ago. WITH Tony.

It's simple... the guy has nothing. He's no more qualified to be an expert on anything sports than one of the high school cheerleaders in your home town. Actually, they go to games on a regular basis... so, they likely would trump him on that one.

I havent read this whole thread, but take a look at that play again, it was Man coverage. You had Johnson going into the flats being covered by a Linebacker, or the WR on top being covered by the Linebacker. Pollard went after Johnson. He made the right read. It was a touchdown no matter who he covered, but chances are better when he went to help his linebacker. It was lose lose for him.

It all goes back to the message on the infamous "sign". The coaches probably figured out he was a potential locker room cancer waiting to happen or that he half-assed practices which going forward wasn't what they wanted.

It's not like he was an all-world talent so I'm ok with taking one step back if it translates into success long term. Still to early to know for sure if the release was the right move, but so far so good for me anyway.

When you play in this league, you get to be a has-been. Larry is just a has-been with a couple of Pro Bowls and a broke dick.
Pollard, by contrast, is contributing to his team, play off's or no.

Perspective; LJ did NOT get the Bengals to where they are, he just jumped on a good ship that someone else had to build, and has thus far contributed 5 yards to the overall effort. Outstanding.

I just remember so many of the "experts" questioning the decision to release him. We all could see that he had many areas in his game that needed improvement. He still had an upside to him imo. Brown had absolutely no upside. Even keeping him for his special teams play would have been worth it. I just hope we didn't dump a potentially solid player just to prove a point. What does a player do on the field is the bottom line and so far bp has looked really solid on the field.

No he really didn't but there are alot of people who are paid alot of money to recognize talent and coach that talent up. I'm questioning if we have anyone who can do either. I just have a bad feeling that we may have let one slip right out from under us kinda like Fujita, Wilkerson, Mitchell, etc. None of those guys are world beaters but i think they might be alot better than what we have now. We drafted all four of the aformentioned and if we had kept them all which we easily could have done, I think we might have some continuity that you look for when you draft players.

Pollard is playing better than he did in KC, but you also have to give it to him that he got better every year he was here and it is conceivable that he would have been better this year, than last, as well.

you go to admit Pollardhad a pretty damn good game against the Titans. One fumble recovery , passdefensed and he stuck Vince Young for a loss with a solid solo tackle. I didn't see any of those wiffs everybody talks about . He was always around the ball. The Titans have the best runing back in the league and haven't lost since Young was put in as starter. Pollard suffered in Kc from poor coaching and no defensive scheme. I'll be the first to bring it up when he makes the pro bowl.

Naw. He's playing much better than average now. I've seen every game he's played in as a pro, and he's definately a different player in Houston than he was in KC. He was never coached up in KC and I don't hink he ever really fit the scheme. (Did anyone?) I think the biggest factor is the Texans have a much better supporting cast on defense. I was wrong about Pollard. He not only CAN play, he can play very well.

This is the meat of why it was foolish to cut him at the point we did. He was a standout special teamer and was getting better.

I disagree that he is maxed out 100%. Im not gonna say his ceiling is an all pro, it isnt, but if you watch him this year, you will see him wrapping up consistently. That is something many here would say he could never do. It shows a tremendous amount of growth and that he wants to be better at what matters.

I think Pollard will continue to be a topic here for quite some time.

Morgan is talented, but raw.

He has tremedous upside, but ha sonly played safety for two or three years.

He has a lot to learn, but that learning curve would have been accelerated if he had been given the oppotunity to play this year, while we are trying to dig ourselves out of the hole we've dug for ourselves.

Even with that, he played a pretty solid game a couple of weeks ago.

Missing five tackles in one preseason game is not showing promise.

The cut was justified.

In hindsight the Chiefs made a mistake, but if Pollard hadn't been cut, it's no guarantee he would have improved his play to a decent level in KC.

very true, but you cant say he wouldnt have progressed at the same rate he had progressed up to that point. I think he would have paid dividends if given more time here and in a scheme then fits his talents better. NOT THE COVER 2!!!

watch a Texans game and you will see my argument better than I can spell it out for you here.

BTW I feel you know this but have left it out purposely, he has the same position coach he had the last few years in KC. It should tell you something that he was the teams leading tackler as their starting SS. I know you mock that fact, but it is a relevant part of the conversation because he was a last line of defense in a cover two and had to lead the team in tackles from that position, that shows how much FAIL the front seven was last year. Page was third on the team in tackles BTW. DJ was second.

The bright spot of it is that hopefully this leads us to starting Morgan at fs and watching him shine by years end and hopefully grooming a rookie and Page to battle it out next year for the starting ss spot. That is pretty promising.

Succop, Colquit, Pollard and add a returner and that would have been a fantastic special teams unit that is young.

So basically you have no argument. When the justification for why the Chiefs should have kept him is based on things he did AFTER leaving the Chiefs, there is no justification for keeping him when he was sucking ass.

The Chiefs had to cut him. He was sucking ass. They had no way of knowing he would suddenly improve. Good for him, bad for the Chiefs.

They made the right move.

The justification for keeping him, based on what he did in KC, is 1) very good special teams performer 2) two years starting experience 3) showed areas of great promise
My argument is the same as the day he was cut and well before. Put him in a defense suited to his obvious strengths (instead of one based on his weakness') and put a good front seven in front of him and you have a player that is perceived as much better than he was from his play last year. That is exactly what he has in Houston.

Two years starting experience is pretty worthless.

As I've already pointed out, he WASN'T showing great promise. When you constantly miss tackles and show NO improvement in that area, you are NOT showing promise.

I will admit he was a good special teams performer. But players who are a bad influence in the locker are not worth keeping simply because they can block a punt.

I expect Pollard's defensive deficiencies will be exposed over the course of the rest of the season. Wilson is out for the year, and he was the Texan's best cover safety. That means that Pollard will have to try increasing his range, and he'll also have to start defending better players on the opposing teams. He's playing with a chip on his shoulder about getting cut in Kansas City, but that only lasts for so long, and then players tend to revert to their old ways. Pollard could be an exception, but I wouldn't count on it.

That being said, I'm hoping the Texans can pull off the upset this week, so I'll be cheering for Pollard and company.

No, Im not. I have seen the team practice for 100+ practices total with my own eyes, 50+ were with Pollard there and his teammates loved him. Teammates dont interact with a disliked "cancer" the way ever player interacted with BP.

It is ridiculous to say otherwise.

I don't care what Babb says. He is wrong.

Pollard had problems with Clancy and that is it. I bet any amount of money that if you polled all the players if they would want him back in the locker room, the overwhelming majority would vote yes without hesitation.

C. Why is everyone saying BP is a great special teams player? What else has he done outside of a couple blocked punts every couple years? Thats all you guys are basing that off of.
D. He fits what Houston is looking for in a safety. Good. He obviously didnt fit in ours. You know what when you do when you have a massive line (Cowboys)? you run the ball between the tackles. You know what you do when you have an athletic line? You pull linemen and run counters. Why keep a huge average guard when you are looking for an athletic guard? Same principle when it goes to BP

ROFL

The guy doesn't have the brains for the game. Look at him in coverage. He doesn't use the right technique, he doesn't even know his assignment, JUST LIKE last Sunday.

he has only been playing in this scheme/formation for 10 games and in very, very limited time, a learning curve is to be expected. He is making more plays than in any year before (if you take into consideration his limited role and the production he has gotten out of it) and starting to look like the big play linebacker we drafted. He used to make a play or two and disapear, now he is playing less and is making plays when he is out there to earn more time. I bet he plays very impressively the rest of the year.

I used to defend DJ...every offseason I had high expectations...but now I'm done with him, just like I lost patience with Pollard.

I think that if he was a second or third round pick, people would be happy with him. He just hasnt given us the same big play backer we thought we were drafting, but one has to ask if he was coached in a way that he could be. He is starting to look like he is becoming that guy, if he can learn the nuances of his other responsibilities he can be a huge playmaker for us in this scheme.

I agree that I have too been guilty of defending him, but damnit I love this team and if he can somehow start to lessen his weaknesses and become consistent with using his strengths to help the defense, he can be a huge part of our ability to turn this mutha around. I havent lost all faith in the young man quite yet

He might go somewhere else and do great....doesn't mean he can do it here. Maybe he needs a wake up call. Our loss.

Or maybe the "wake up call" was getting benched and he is making less mistakes than are perceived because we dont know what the play calls were in all the situations where he supposedly made the mistake that were possibly someone elses actual mistakes. Who knows?

If we are to have a successful turnaround, players like DJ "getting it" have to start happening and maybe its my homer side that believes he can become what we saw from his big plays at Texas, but I hope it is my objective side.

DT Tank
DT Sims
LDE Wilkerson
ROLB Fujita
MLB Kawika
LOLB Fox (soon to be DJ?)
CB Sapp
FS __________
SS Pollard
CB _____________

Add a couple more pieces, and that's a pretty good defense, that was all drafted by us. Surely better than what we trotted out there last year. Add those pieces to what we had last year and that is a contending defense.

What does that tell you of where the problems with KC stemmed from? To me it is PROOF that CP and GUN had no ****ing clue what they were doing!

Heres an outside the box statement, I wonder if DJ could play safety? He is faster than Brown, I think.

What do you mean by objectivity on him? I have been 100% spot on with almost every comment about him in this thread, totally unbiased.


HAHA what?

I have no problem with optimism, or even homerism, but can we at least root for some good players once in a while? Blind support of crappy players makes one look rather dense.

Oh sweet fucking Jesus the irony.

So, you're admitting that homerism can occassionally blind you? that maybe every post of yours in this thread isnt 'spot on?'.
I try to post without any emotion, it gets in the way of objectivity. But it is impossible for me to do without any optimism all the time because I still jump up and down during games, and pace when its a pressure situation. When Succop kicked his field goal, the people three doors up knew it.

ahhhh thats cute, mr hymen learned a new phrase. Who'd ya learn that one from? "pretty bird, pretty bird"

I root for who I want to, evidently to you, that means you think you have to follow the same guys...its a free world son, choose whoever you want to root for. Its your world.

"We" don't have to choose to like the same players.

The way you phrased that just screams "I am a parrot, I am a parrot" ...sorry if Im not your typical repeater you are used to.

It is pointless to even begin to debate anything with tools like you because you bring NOTHING to the table that wasnt borrowed from someone else.

Everyone has different ideas about who's good, thats no prob to me.

I guess its just that Boss Chiefs posting style, sometimes has a real air of entitlement about it.

'I'm 100% spot on', while the rest of you moran 'parrots' dont know sh*t.

I am a genuinely confident dude, I may be wrong every once in awhile, but I also have no problem standing up for my beliefs. In this case, I am not quite ready to write DJ off yet. I know he makes mistakes, but with such lacking talent here, everyone does. Everyone feels they have to play beyond their means to make things work and DJ is still thinking too much in the new defense.

He is making a lot more big plays than in the past if you consider the fact the amount of snaps he plays per game.

After rewatching the game, DJ hit/caused Ben to alter his throw about 5 times sunday, at least once in every quarter. That is impact.

I also noticed that most of his missed tackles were for trying to strip the ball. I dont fault him for that, he was trying to make a play against the world champs to give a better chance to win the game.

I would be pissed if he isnt a Chief next year. I almost guarantee he blows up wherever he goes if he is allowed to leave.

Pollard is a big god damn wuss. Especially for a guy who screamed "ALL FUCKIN' DAY, ****A" on the practice field.

Texans safety Bernard Pollard started all 16 games for the Chiefs in 2008, but he ended up in Houston after Kansas City cut him just before the start of the 2009 season.

Pollard describes getting cut by the Chiefs as a shock, but he says he thinks he knows what the problem was: He wouldn't put up with new coach Todd Haley and his staff cursing him out.

"With professional athletes, you're dealing with grown men. You're not dealing with boys," Pollard tells the Journal Gazette. "You're not in a locker room with sophomores in high school. You're dealing with grown men with families. I have a wife. I have a son. And I have a daughter on the way. I'm not going to sit there and let you curse me out (http://www.journalgazette.net/article/20091108/SPORTS0605/311089894/1008/SPORTS) when you feel like cursing me out or talk to me any way you want to talk to me, and you just want me to sit and take it and say, 'Yes, coach.'"

As ArrowheadPride.com notes, Pollard had a shouting match (http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2009/11/8/1121322/former-chief-pollard-didnt-like) with Chiefs defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast during training camp, leading to Pollard being sent off the field. Apparently that was not just one isolated incident.

But from Pollard's perspective, it's all worked out. Now he's a starter in Houston.

"I respect others because that's what I want in return," Pollard says. "It was shocking to get let go, but I'm a Texan, and I'm happy to be one."

thanks, like I said he was cut because he had a argument with Clancy, who I might add I didnt want in the first place to coordinate our defense. I wanted

1) Nolan
2) Haslett
3) Romeo

in that order.

Wouldnt the right thing to do be to bench him and let a veteran lead by example? That is what good coaches do. Like his position coach from KC that went to houston that wanted him.

An alarming thing that surfaced in this as well, is that Pioli and his cronies tried to "blackball" him after he was cut. Gibbs had to speak up for him and Herm himself had to talk to Kubiak about BP before he was signed. Pollard said this in an interview.

Fuck it though, what does it all matter anyway.

Weak fucking sauce AND old news.

The players yukking it up with each other in camp is a whole different flip of the coin.

I have watched them a little lately and have wondered why they have played him at FS so much. Doesnt really make sense. It shows me that they do trust him in coverage more than their other safeties.

Id also like to add that the other safeties on that list are also young and pretty good as well. Id take any of them here except the guy from the 49ers.
