Albert's poor play is still a result of new technique and the weight loss, IMO. I'm not throwing him under the bus, nor are most of the knowledgeable posters.

As far as DMac is concerned, no one was advocating replacing his ass with Chris Terry or Kyle Turley. We wanted an upgrade, not a swinging dick for the case of a swinging dick.

Albert is struggling in trying to learn technique, and he has no supporter as high on him as me.

But he does need to be sat down in this period of struggle while he is working on technique, cause he is playing as badly as is being stated.

Playing him right now could ruin his confidence.

But the fact that we we don't have anyone to play in his place and he and the Chiefs are ****ed.

This is the NFL, not a ****ing sheltered workshop.

It might.

But if it does, he was never the player we thought or hoped he was.

No, Goff was clearly in decline last year, and Charger fans were calling for anyone to replace him.

I guess the coaches didn't want to upgrade as bad as the fans?

Right now Albert was hardly worth trading Allen.

Nice try smart ass.

I work at a place that has one of the highest avg paying salaries in the area. I guarantee its better than KC's average in the NFL.

problem is whether it's the NFL or ****ing MCDonald's there is a comparison between the expected performance of your employee base and the actual performance and what you can do about it.

Laugh if you want but anybody who hires or manages people will tell you the same thing.

What you want and what you have is not easily corrected in either environment and sometimes people just plain let you down.

Good point. I think that's the bigger picture here. A lot of people are whining about the o-line and what shoulda/coulda happened. Well, the o-line is just a small fraction.

What this team needed was a near-complete overhaul: We needed to replace 1 if not both safeties, with the switch to a 3-4: 3 LBs, 3 DLs, then also: C, G, T, WR, QB, KR/PR, and while it was lower priority maybe even HB. That's at minimum 1/2 a team's worth of starters and doesn't even begin to address depth at those positions. Not to mention the complete dearth of leadership that was on the team.

I'd like to see the GM that can come to a laughing stock of a team and even begin to fix every phase of that in one offseason.

They had to prioritize, and with the draft, they decided to set their aim on the DL and QB (with the trade); then maybe see what they could happen to fill with the later picks.

I think it only qualifies as panic when you think you're a player or two away and find out you're not at the last moment, so you start reaching at straws to make yourself better than you are. I don't think our owner, GM, or coach ever had that illusion.

When you have a seriously talentless team you pick a place and start working. That's what they did. The rest of it is trying to find the right sized finger to plug the hole in your dam until you can get the proper fix...

You're right.

I am just speculating, but the fact is, most new GMs go with someone they have, or have had a working relationship with.

For DeCosta that is a shorter list than Pioli's, who's been in the league for much longer.

Said the wait person. Now just pile......

3 weeks in and U know better? LOL

U right, it is amazing U R still posting!

I think every player who goes through a learning period and struggles loses their confidence.

Some don't overcome it.

Some do.

I think Albert is one that would, but I think also that it does slow the process, which is my primary concern with Albert right now.

Guess your jerk IM, did not work out? Idiot!!!

ROFL

I always enjoy these pearls of wisdom.

Now if only I knew what any of them mean.
