There's a lot of "what ifs" on defense.

I think CB play is gonna be ass. Sneed looked good when he played but has a small sample size due to injury.

I think this team was dumb for not resigning Breeland $4M is cheap for a starting CB.

I think Ward (at best) is an avg CB but a good half of the time plays like ass. Teams are just gonna pick on him all season.

I think the Chiefs are banking on Baker and Hughes play up to their draft selections. I don't think that will happen.

Fenton and others are JAG.

And the pass rush will be very avg. Don't expect much out of Clark, and unless Taco or Danna or perhaps Okafor (if he can stay healthy) surprise some people, this is a very sub avg to avg DE group, even with Jones/Reed in the middle.

LB has gotten a little better if everyone can stay healthy. This team will still trot out Neimann onto the field....****in morons.

Concussion protocol. He has to pass his baseline to be allowed on the field again.

Shit take from one of CP’s dumbest.

While I dont' share his takes, it does have some realistic possibilities. If Clark isn't good, the pass rush will be iffy.

And the CB is banking on youth, which, I'm good with. But there's some risk there.

Youre wearing some homer glasses if you don't think CB is gonna be a problem this yr. :rolleyes:

Not as worried about pass rush as I am with CB due to Jones and Reed being in the middle.

But CB is gonna be a problem...and will be a serious problem if Sneed gets inj again. Theres 0 quality depth at this position.

If there’s one thing that I’ve learned to trust Spags with, it’s the defensive backs.

You idiots have been saying the same shit for 3 years now.

The CB’s will continue to exceed expectations.

No, the chiefs are banking on Hughes and Baker playing up to Breeland or better. Breelands losing speed and burst and had a lot of penalties last year.If they do at least that its a wash.

If Key is the Safety they seem to think he can be, by mid-season I think we'll be seeing him on the field, mixing it up with Thornhill and Sorensen, allowing Honey Badger to roam around freely in the secondary the way DT58 had the green light to roam around in the box in the Falcon role.

I'm not super worried about the secondary almost purely from the fact that 1. we will have the lead most of the time and know they are passing, and 2. our interior pass rush (Reed, Wharton, & sometimes Jones) will disrupt and force many quick throws, which means the depth of target will be closer to the LOS, and now we finally have coverage linebackers who can make plays on the ball in Gay & Bolton.

I'm feeling pretty good right now relative to last year's defense.

I appreciate Breeland and he was a great bargain for us while he was here, but people seriously overrate him.

I mean, for ****'s sake, Bolton picked off Patrick Mahomes in his very first practice, and again later that week.

If his hands are sticky like that, we should hopefully similar plays against much lesser talent.

Fenton is not a jag. That dude has major skills.

That’s the thing. Talent wise he IS JAG, but when he’s been on the field, he’s been adequate to good almost every time.

This is an example of why I trust this staff with the DBs.

Safeties for sure. CB's have been good too, but Breeland was a big part of that.

This staff is making chicken salad out of chicken shit pretty consistently. Ward is a plus corner but i often wonder if he would be as good elsewhere.
