As I mentioned earlier, he played safety and dropped to cover the slot as their 3rd "corner". Much different responsibility from having to cover the perimeter like Cooper did.

Dude, no one is saying Flowers isn't good. But given our situation you can't justify $15 mil over 2 years to a slot CB when you have your up-n-coming, pass rushing, stud and your QB up for new contracts.

Not sure you remember but they were picking on him unmercifully.

We would have been fine if Sutton wasn't dumb enough to play Robinson as our 3rd corner after Flowers went down. Unfortunately, he was dumb enough to do that.

Dave just walked into the bar with a baseball bat and started cracking skulls.

I've seen 10 people saying he sucked.

And the 3rd best corner on the team.

Well, I think he dropped off due to age and injury but nonetheless, he was just the odd man out. If he could still play the outside like he used too and didn't have 2 years of nagging injuries then perhaps you work something out.

Then again they may have tried to re-structure and his agent said **** off?

Will miss him.

Flowers was the only CB on the Chiefs who could play outside, in the slot or shadow an opposing WR. His departure leaves a big hole in the secondary.

Could play outside and inside and playing well outside or inside are 2 far different things.

Flowers got handed by big receivers outside, and was constantly trailing in the slot in a press man scheme.

People insist he's not a good fit because a year of game tapes last year show that he wasn't. He's not worth that price tag to the current Chiefs.

I am pretty optimistic, actually.


Losing Flowers isn't going to change our trajectory. He was good, but we need to be realistic. He won't even count for .1 points on a point spread any given sunday.

Yeah thats it. The awesome depth we have there and he played Robinson. Passed up all those other shut down CBs like....

Ummmm...

All Carl cares about is keeping the stadium full. That's why he is keeping vets around to go 8-8. God forbid he would cut an underperforming player in order to resign a younger promising younger player (Houston) that would give us a better chance of winning in the long run. But no, got to keep the fans happy. DAMMIT CARL :cuss:
