Defense: Looks tired. I think the chargers game drained them. Also, the lack of pass rush is a srs issue facing this team. We need more pressure opposite of Hali. I know Crennel knows what he's doing far better than any of us...However, more blitzes would be nice. We only blitzed the chargers 4x the entire game. Hali is a beast, but we do need to get more pressure.

Also, turnovers have been a strength thus far for us in our 4 game win streak. I feel that that kinda hid some of the ineptitude of our defense. Matt ****ing Moore CANNOT pick us apart like he has! Crennels defense needs to make the adjustments.

Offense: This is a game where the offense needs to break out. We have the weapons, we need to take advantage of a HORRID dolphins pass defense. Now, I can't blame this solely on cassel, Meir needs to do a better job with his play selections. The main issue with this team thus far has been adjustments. It seems to be a rather painful process for this team.

Being more aggressive is necessary. We saw how well the chiefs responded in OT last week. Even in our scoring drives last week, it had to do with the aggressive nature of the offensive play calling (as well as with the execution.) With the dolphins secondary being absolutely shitty, there is no reason why DBowe, Breaston, and Baldwin cannot dominate! Lets get these guys the ball more.

Now, we're down 14-3. I was a bit worried about this game going in..I thought it would be a trap game. Thus far, its looking like it is. What we need right now is a long sustained scoring drive that results in a TD. This game is a LONG ways from being over. However, if we keep playing with our heads up our ass, we will lose to the winless dolphins.


Arrowhead is fairly quite sounding on TV. Normally I can't hear the QBs cadence. I know this isn't a fun game...but I thought it would have been more rowdy than this! It seems Arrowhead might be a bit hungover like the rest of the team.

The biggest difference in this game that I see is we have zero pass rush and zero turnovers. Those two things are connected as well. Moore isn't going to throw interceptions as comfortable as he is back there.

Exactly pr. You cannot give ANY QB time to go through his reads in this league.

Its hard to maintain this sort of momentum that we've had for the past 4 weeks. I do expect a let down, just not to the winless dolphins. These are the games that we HAVE to win.

Hali has been double teamed the whole game. How we haven't compensated for this is beyond me.

Romeo thinks it's cool to tie up two blockers with him.

we have no one esle willing to step up i guess...sad...if we just had one other pass rusher we would be in such great shape IMO

We need to blitz more. Look at the fins...they've blitzed the hell out of us with great results!

Yep, I don't think we'd have gotten torched anymore than we did if we'd blitzed each play on the three-play TD drive.

The team is just unprepared. I don't wanna hear the it was an emotional win last week, short week blah blah. This is the NFL. If you're to be taken seriously you win these games against winless teams. It's just obvious that this team lacks leadership.

Stunned how badly the OL is playing. If they can play like they have most of the year, then we can get back in it. I think the D will stiffen up...I hope.

The biggest difference in the game is the Dolphins are getting pressure on Cassel and the Chiefs are providing free drinks and cable service for Moore in the pocket.

Unprepared is a good call. Looks like we've been looking over the fins so far. However, we can get back into this. This game is not over, not close. If the D stiffens up, the Offense starts airing it out, we should be fine.

Right now, we have ZERO sacks...Now I know Crennel is a good DC. But rushing with 3 or 4 players is not working we need to blitz the hell out of Moore! Make it uncomfortable for him, and he will make mistakes.

Dorsey is damn good in run support, but you're right, he's not much of a pass-rusher as a DE.

Why are we running outside with Battle?

Hes a downhill runner for christsake! Muir is dumb as shit! Thats a McCluster play.

The OL looks terrible too. 5 sacks? Pitiful...
