I think the could beat the Bengals. That's about it.

Eh... not buying it... With Reid and Sutton preparing for the game? Not likely.

Ummm....Hill and Bernard would rape this defense.

I would love for a reporter to ask him at the presser when he gives a joke answer like 'we've gotta do better', to ask "...and when should we expect you to do a better job"?

I'd prefer 'are you still planning on cashing your paycheck tomorrow?'

The team looks like it's not playing with passion anymore because they're not. That defense no longer has a heart. DJ and Berry were the heart of that Defense and now there's no one there to rally that team.

JMJ and Mauga are just awful. The team is missing their heart, and when the ball is shoved down your throat in the ground game, then you lose your will.

Isn't this 3 straight games with 150+ Rushing yards given up?

Can't win football games like that.

Do the reporters ask any questions? Why do we not ever throw down the field? Why not try a new mix of o linemen? Where is dee ford?

How come you cant have your team prepared to play?

that's nice...not that it matters.

His play-call sheet was covered in syrup. That's why you don't pencil important info in on your IHOP menu.

With all respect --because he is one of the Chiefs all time greats, (and I have his jersey), when decent teams make their number one defensive objective to stop Charles, it makes it pretty difficult, unless we have other fairly viable offensive options.

I listen to Bronco pregame interviews and when asked what is the key to the game, the say, "stop Charles, stop Charles, stop Charles."

Kelce needs more touches.

Andy is exactly the guy Philly ran out of town and the same guy every football fan knew he was...

Why people are surprised about this is really mind blowing...

Some people may be. He likes the throw the ball unnecessarily. His in-game management is hilarious at times. But, I do believe he's a great player's coach. Those guys probably love him. So there's that.

He wanted Smith terribly and had a master-plan for him, so I'm still waiting to see that unfold. Any time now would be cool.

Heh...KC could have drafted Kelvin Benjamin instead of Dee Ford and it's frustrating. Then I wonder, would have made any difference when Alex ignores WR's?

We threw the ball down the field on the very first play from scrimmage. It was hilariously off target. I said when they did it that it would be the only deep ball we threw the whole game.

Haven't we won most of our games this season without Johnson and Berry, including a massacre of New England?

Smith only has 10 attempts of passes beyond 20 yards this year LMAO.
heard that stat last night, and just laughed aloud.

You can only mask a deficiency for so long until teams start marking their targets.

**** no. What would this bag o' shit squad accomplish in the play offs that it hasn't accomplished since you were watching 'Power Rangers'?

The playoffs would be the absolute worst thing that can happen to your boy.

The team has to lose out for the FO to realize they aren't one or two guys away from winning anything significant.

How can anyone look at that, and the fact that we have a total of 0 TD passes to WRs all season, and say we have a complete QB? Why is it any wonder that opposing teams can completely shut our offense down when we're that one dimensional?

Saw a claim last night that Andrew Luck has more TD's over 20 yards than Alex Smith has attempts over 20 yards.

As a defense, would you rather have to defend the entire field or an incredibly small portion of the entire field?

And this was supposed to be year 2 of Smith in this offense. He was supposed to build on the playoff game from last year.

****ing pathetic.

Yep. Deal is though he's the type of QB that needs a strong supporting cast. His cast got worse from last season and so did he...If you choose his type of QB to lead your franchise, you better surround him with talent because he's not going to make those around him any better. The Chiefs didn't and so it's no surprise they are where they are now. The "surprise" was winning off 5 in a row.

I am aggravated with quite a few things Andy does. I'm hoping he can sort them out between now and beginning of next season. Got lots of holes to fill, this is only year 2 of this regime. The rest of this season will tell us if were making progress from last year. Let's not forget Andy Reid has won 2 more playoff games as a coach than we have a a franchise. And he's only coached in 3 less playoff games than our team has ever appeared in!

I may be alone here but I like Andy Reid. He makes som dumb shit decisions sometimes, but all of the coaches do. No one is perfect. Dorsey has done a shit job with the offensive line and receiver group, but they are all young inexperienced dudes. I don't have much faith in this season but Andy is my guy going forward. I think this team has potential to be really really good in the coming years.

“Keep our heads down and just know it takes one game to get back into it,” Bowe said. “We got to start by that one game. I think we’re going to get back to the basics next week and just start off with Chiefs’ style football, pounding and grinding and open it up with the play-action.”

a play action drop by the WR's?

Bowe is going to make a great analyst when he retires

How the **** did he even get this offense working at all this year with absolutely nothing at WR or OL?

They just would blame Benjamin, like they blame Bowe etc.

And I think at least 2 of them were INTs in the Titans game.

Kelce needs more catches. Looks like Avant too maybe.

Yeah.

"Here, I'm going to take away 3 of your starters on the o line and give you jack and $3it at WR but...and here's the thing...we need you to up your level of play."

This make sense to anyone?...

This.

If he's 100% healthy he needs Gonzo-level targets...

Andy Reid is Sorry
 

Well giving up 150+ to the Seahawks was kind of a given. Russell is good for 70 by himself and a combo of Lynch/Turbin/Michael is tough to hold to 80 yards.

The Raiders was an atrocious showing and I'm annoyed that the Broncos had their way with us on the ground. That type of defense will get eaten alive this time of year.

But the offense has been the main failure over these past couple weeks. 20 and 16 points just won't get the job done.

The offensive line I can agree with. We took what away at WR? McCluster?

They gave up 125 to Lynch alone.

I know. Lunch is very good, though. That's not the game id point to to prove that we have a shitty run defense is all I'm saying. You could literally point to any other game and prove your point. The Seahawks game isn't really the one Id feel worst about because they have great success running on most teams.

Reid needs to mix things up more of offense and be firmer in what he expects.

When we pass we need to throw deeper.
We never want to run or pass in more than X number of plays. MIX it up.
Reid needs to feature certain players more.


good news is that Avant already looks to be our #2 WR(which is sad also)

You're probably joking, but I would totally watch every damned game he did.

Chiefs have been giving up nearly 5 yards per carry all season. They have been bad against the run from game 1. The only difference is how often teams have run the ball.

People hang onto that bullshit clickbait stat about not giving up a TD but mass the bigger picture.

I knew we where screwed as soon as Reid called the first series of plays. Alex couldn't make the throws, Denver scores on the first drive, game over. The thing that chaps my azz the most, defense laying down and running away to avoid having to tackle.

I didnt watch the whole game, but I never seen anyone run away from the ballcarrier... I DID see defenders consistently bounce off Anderson like he was Jim ****ing Brown, though.

Andy Reid's theme song
 

:D

So once again teams figure out our weakness on defense. Last year it was exploiting the secondary with lewis and cooper. This year we can't stop the run and once again Sutton will have no answer.

Sunday night's game was more about lack of execution rather than Sutton's playcalling. Lots of missed tackles. Plus, I'm not sure what you want Sutton to do. He lost both starting DE's from last year, Pro Bowl ILB and his box safety that he used to stop the run. Not much run stuffing talent on the team.

Last year Sutton had the talent sitting on the bench (Abdullah or parker) that could have fixed the lewis situation. Maybe vickerson and mays should be playing more or does Sutton need a whole offfseason to figure that out also. Look im not saying sutton lost us the game against the Broncos . I blame more the offense for that. I hope the defense doesn't go spiraling down again like last year. It already seems like he already running poe back into the ground again by not rotating.

I felt like this last game was pretty near a MUST win. Just about every aspect of our game was a big pile of crap. :banghead:
Disheartening as hell.
If vampires were real I would try to find one asap to glimmer me into not being a fan of this damn team.

Lemme guess - you're an Obama voter???

Andy Reid is better than Crennel...but Todd Haley took a Matt Cassel - led team to the playoffs. Haley took TYLER ****ING PALKO into Soldier Field and won. Haley almost beat the Steelers with Palko on a Sunday Night...

Haley would be undefeated with this team.

I guarantee he would HAND THE ****ING BALL TO THE RUNNING BACKS.

**** ANDY REID.

Todd Haley sucks shit.

Reid's fat ass obviously sucks much, much more.

Negative

This and Haley didn't do shit without Weiss.

the Todd Haley reaction gifs GoChiefs made are some of my favorite things.

You do know that when Weiss was here it was Haley that was coaching Matt. Weiss said Matt couldnt do what Haley was asking, so he stopped coaching him. IM sure there was an article about it in the star about it. Weiss and Haley never seen eye to eye.

KC won against SD, after the bye, this season.

Since he's been here 2 seasons, and my math skills are so incredibly superior, I've deduced that he can not have lost twice after the bye as a Chief.

The broncos are a better team. KC did everything right and had things going our way in week 2 and still lost. I didn't think Kc would play Denver as close as they did in Denver, and I was right. They're just too much better than KC to compete. We lost even when the ball was bouncing our way, and that wasn't the case on Sunday.

The OL sucks. Fisher needs to be removed from the field. He's not improving. He's just as shitty as he was last year, but now he's doing it at a more important position.

We also had 2 weeks to prepare for the Colts playoff game last year and Andy's offense put up 44 ****ing points.

Haley thought Matt could play QB. Weiss knew Cassel was limited.

Haley took credit for 'developing' Cassel... but Cassel didn't develop at all. He sucked in 2010... but Charlies in game play calling protected him from himself.

Ryan Harris to remain starter at RT. Stephenson to stay on bench

Yes I do and THAT was my point. Weiss KNEW Cassel SUCKED and called plays to protect him. After Weiss left, Cassel was the same player, with Haley, that he was before Weiss arrived. Haley did NOTHING for Cassel.

I would have to disagree. This team needs to learn how to win on a consistent basis. They have lost for so long that it will take work to change that culture and mindset. You can see it here on CP. Imagine how much worse it must be for the players who live and work with it every day.

Agreed.

You could put Andy in green and switch out Charles for Westbrook and you dudes sound like Eagles fan's 7 years ago.

@ChiefsReporter: #Chiefs going in full pads today at practice for the first time in a few weeks.

If this is true than holy shit. I understand not going full pads on the short week but with 10 days to prepare for Denver this is no excuse. They had a chance to rest for 3 extra days after Oakland.
Unbelievable that they weren't practicing in pads last week.

Gotta' keep the intensity up. It's a long season, but this ain't a team of Allen's and Gonzalez's that can just park their asses on the sideline while everybody else works.

Andy is a modern day fatter Marty.

This will end as expected.

When this hire went down, my first reaction was, "they're trying to recreate the 90's". And you and I know the drill on that decade ALL to well.

The only problem is, Reid ****ing sucks within his own division now and we've become 90's San Diego.

Success!

This can't be said enough...

90's San Diego went to a Super Bowl

We're not them then...

This fan base wants the 90s so bad. Well Reid will bring it. Parking lot full. Hope for playoff noise is resounding. Failure will reign = full stadium.

Shit franchise will always be shit.

My bad. I thought they didn't take off until after the turn of the century.

I was referring to "Seau the only legit player while Chiefs stomp that ass"-era SD.

gotta be honest. just don't care, been listening to the same BS excuses for so long, it's just seems futile.

even the debates about the team are getting STALE.

This.

Different actors - same story...

KC only ran about 40 plays on offense.
0 Carries in the 4th quarter because down 2 scores.

This past game was not getting too clever going zig zig zig because nobody would expect that.

And it's not like KC has a dominant run game. They have a HOF back.
To make it work Reid and co have to think up ways to cheat and steal some openings for Jamaal to run through.

Do you think they want to spend time doing this? No. But they have to because the OL sucks.
If KC had a decent OL you would have to reason not to expect Jamaal to be fed the ball in big games.

He did get a decent portion of the plays early in the game and 10 for 35 yards isn't good.

Honest question: is Jamaal already a HOF back? If his career ended today does he get in?
