Turning the table on another thread… In what area are the Chiefs better than the Chargers?
I might give you the running game, but I'm curious to hear a Chiefs homer's view of how they could possibly think that the Chiefs could win the division this year...
(BTW - I know I'm trolling and I apologize:))

As for Sanders, if you get the Sanders from 07 and he stays healthy, well your safties will really make some noise this season. I personally think thats a really big IF, considering how IND handled it. The evidence starts to form this Sunday, and isn't that just awesome.

This is pretty spot on. Defensive line though I might have to throw to the Chargers. We've got good depth, but Garay had a great year last year.

Also, we don't have much to base our new WR corps off of yet. Haven't even really seen Breaston as a Chief, or Baldwin at all for that matter. Chargers WR's benefit immensely from Rivers, hell, the OL does too.

As far as 'lil' Bobby Sanders goes, He'll be a great addition if he stays healthy and the Chargers won't fall apart if he doesn't.
Other players have made nice come backs after years and years of injuries, (although I can't think of one off the top of my head).
IMO Berry is much betteer than Weddle or Sanders but the two combined are better than Berry/Lewis.

Do you spend as much or more time on a Chargers board?

I just can't imagine spending any of my time being on a Broncos or Chargers board. So... ok.... I'm more of a baseball fan... I still wouldn't spend time on another teams board except the Royals (if they had a decent one which is why I'm here.)

When it come to CBs, if the QB is avoiding you, you get crappy CB stats.

That is why it'll be nice to get some advanced stats from PFF when Wendler arrives. It's based off of percentages, so targets will be accounted for. Basically I'd like to see the opposing QB's completion percentage against each DB.

Also, I know both Chiefs corners rank top 16 so I wouldn't mind seeing where Cason and Jammer sit.

If Sanders stays healthy I would call it a miracle. He has only hit double digits in games played twice in his Professional carreer. 2005 and 2007. 14 games and 15 games respectively other than that he hasn't played in more than 6 games a year. He is 30 years old so the odds of him staying healthy are pretty much slim and none.

aturnis
09-07-2011, 08:58 PM
Don't know what you're expecting from Bobby Sanders. He might help with your run game more than anything.

Since his brokedick ass can't play full season, ever, never once. I'll go by games. He's played 48, so we'll call that 3 seasons.

In those 3 seasons, he has 6 INT's and 16 passes defensed. Not amazing numbers by any means. 2 INT's and 5.somefuckingnumber passes defensed per year. meh.

Then he'll get hurt.

Totally fair question. I'm a member of 2 Charger boards and they suck for the following reasons:
- Too many st00pid n00bs
- They don't like off topic threads
- Too many Chicken Littles
- I've been put on a temporary ban for calling a shit head a "poo poo head"
Sure there are some quality posters but for the most part it’s swimming through a sea of crap.

Has anyone mentioned the ability to close out games yet? The chargers lost a lot of close games last year...looking at their games from last year, they were 3-5 in one possession games. Chiefs were 4-2.

I would give slight edge to KC defense based on position comparison.
Special teams favors KC
Offense fairly even except for the most important position = QB. Rivers can make everyone else better on offense and sadly I can't say the same for Cassel.

Rivers' skill set far exceeds anything Cassel can do. However, Rivers has yet to demonstrate the leadership qualities that it takes to put a team on your shoulders and carry them to a Superbowl win.

I've never seen Montana, Brady, Farve, Bradshaw, Elway, Manning throw temper tantrums on the field when things don't go their way like Rivers does. Leaders are calm in the huddle and unite players. Rivers points fingers and whines and gives those goofy condescending faces when shit gets stressful.

Coach

I will give us a thumbs up at D-Coordinator, but can anyone really say that Haley is better then Norv yet?



#2 Wide Receiver

Breaston was proven with Warner, but with Cassel we will see. It doesn't hurt to have Fitzgerald and Boldin flanking each side.

After him there is a drop-off. Baldwin hasn't done shit yet, and we have a bunch of warm bodies after that.



D-Line

Diego's defense was pretty impressive last year. Impressive defenses start on the D-Line.


Linebackers

I love Tamba and DJ, but the other two positions are very "meh".



I am cynical, and I apologize if I piss some guys off.

Well I think it's safe to say that while the chiefs have excelled at times too, the chargers are far superior to us at choking right now. When it comes to choking you'll be hard pressed to find a better team than the San Diego Super Chokers.

In area's that the chiefs are better than the chargers? That one is easy, the only thing that matters championships.....

In terms of Coaching:
HC:
Haley dances around and screams more so that makes him better than Norf.:rolleyes:

OC: This is basically Norf vs. Muir (with Haley in his ear). Advantage Norf.

DC: Romeo Crennel > Manusky, but it's closer than you might think. Manusky was raised in Wade's 3-4 as a LB coach and brings a lot of continuity and a more aggressive approach.

Haley is a master motivator and brilliant position coach.

Norv is a pretty good offensive strategist but that's it. He has no real leadership qualities. What players have improved on San Diego since he's been there?

Corners, safety, RB, LB, ST, crowd, home field advantage, coaching. Did I say RB, I need to say RB again. RB.

It's possible that at WR it becomes a tossup depending on Breaston and whether Bowe continues to tear it up and looking at preseason, he should.

Leadership qualities can come from anywhere. Rookies, vets, assisistant coaches, position coaches, coordinators, head coaches, GMs, Owners.
Anywhere...
Marty Schottenheimer may have been a leader but he was a liability in many other areas. Haley at least has some value with his OC experience but when you compare his offensive mind to Norf's, Norf wins.

According to Pro-Football-Reference.com

The Chargers were #2 in points scored last year
The Chiefs were #14 in points scored last year
The Chiefs were #11 in points allowed last year
The Chargers were #10 in points allowed last year

QB - SD
RB - KC
OT - depends on whether or not Gaither is starting at one of the tackle spots
Interior OL - SD
TE - SD
WR - SD

ST - KC until proven otherwise

NT - ?
DE - KC
OLB - KC
ILB - KC
CB - KC
S - KC

I gave a bit of an grading bump in favor of players who were young last year, and both looked good and as if they were improving at the end of the year When they meet, both will have had their bye week, and both will be coming off long distance away games against hard hitting opponents.

It should be an interesting game, if the teams can stay relatively healthy heading into it.

Total defense is like pitcher's wins, it completely ignores context. SD was number 1 in total defense because they were so bad at STs that what would normally have been a 70yd drive only had to be a 30yd drive. SD defense was 19th in points allowed, paper tigers man, paper tigers.

Gotta chime in here if you guys don't mind. You nailed it. It's a big factor in answering the question,"How could the # 1 ranked team on offense and defense not make the playoffs?" Answer - because the stats were, and most always can be skewed. The Bolts defense is not "that" good anymore.

Having said that - I'll give them the edge this year because of Rivers and the offense.
