Yep! They willed this team to victory.

Don't remember. Very possible. I just know he wasn't very good early on. Now his name comes up on D almost every 3rd play or so.

Getting Spags has been so huge. With Sutton we were embarrassingly out-coached in the AFC championship. Now we actually have a defensive coaching staff that wins us games.

It's still a little weird to see the defense come out and play so much better after halftime. No defense in KC for the last twenty years has been able to do that.

(Yes. We've been that bad for that long.)

I was not a big fan of the Spags hire. I'm glad to have been wrong about that one. And they've probably got the best group of assistants in the NFL. I hope we don't lose too many of them this off-season.

I may be buying a Mathieu jersey this week. He's my favorite defense player in a long time.

Dirty Dan has been tits three straight games.

Mathieu is everybit as good as Eric Berry was in his prime. I was excited about the signing and he has exceeded my expectations. I never thought he'd be this good. He is such a huge role model for the young guys and is such a great leader of this D.

Maybe better??? Would the O throw away from him because he is what he is?

I think Daly has had a huge impact as well. We've got 7 or 8 guys now playing out of their minds. It's not just KPass, it's the entire position group.

This. I don't remember the last time a DC here was this good at making in game and half time adjustments.

Honestly reminds me a lot of what the hoodie does...

Honey badger means Jack/honey

We've had EVERYONE on our D line go down with injury at one point or another. Other than a rookie our line has been banged up all year and still playing solid.

We shut down Henry with two DE's on IR and two lineman playing injured...

Sorenson also an impressive iso tackle on Henry with a full head of steam. Cut off at knees. HB and Clark came up big in the big games. Spags, love that guy

I've been considering doing the same. I had a DJ Johnson jersey (still hanging in my closet) that I got shortly after we drafted him.

It might be time for a new jersey to wear for the next 10 years.

A few of us suspected that and nobody wanted to hear it. And now he's had something like 10 sacks in his last 8 games.

No one wanted to hear it :rolleyes:? I think pretty much everyone was hoping like hell that he was hurt and didn't just suck.

He never did suck. Only complete reeruns thought he did.
