Get Williams, mcduffie and Nelson out there and sit one of our safeties

It’s very likely he’s not in any shape and we just wanted to see if he can run. But we may bring in another guy also if he doesn’t sign

Kareem
Juju
Humphries
Hopkins
Possibly Nelson

We are 11-1 with these issues. Just unbelievable. The coaching staff is truly elite

I still get him and Phillip Gaines confused.

We are trying to get other players rings while still winning the sb every year. It's kind of a selfless act really.

What's Dexter McCleon up to these days?

Chiefs need to talk to Leon Sandcastle because he's sipping margaritas and it's somewhere possibly in Colorado

I cannot fathom why anyone would be against this.

Dregs.

Got to give props to Veach for not leaving any stone unturned to try to complete the 3-peat

And Clark the Shark!

This. We’re one injury away from Nazeeh being back out there a lot. Even if it takes 2 weeks to get into the lineup. We can’t afford to drop a game at this point.

LMAO

This is probably my biggest takeaway this season. Injury luck has not been on our side to say the least, but Veach's efforts have kept us afloat. We'll see if it's enough to actually win another SB, but you can't say he hasn't done his best.

I always found it funny that “Nelson Island” in the KC Metro (Shawnee, KS) is right by Deffenbaugh.

You can look it up on Google Earth or Apple Maps.

seriously. a casey's donut would be better than johnson at this point. bring in nelson and see what he has left.

This Nelson lived near you?

gaines is the one whose mom came on here to defend him LMAO

I remember that. It really happened. LMAO

Wut

We must be truly desperate.

Hey, Casey's donuts are really good!

Well, yeah? Our situational defense at the end of games has been absolutely abysmal. Think it's 5 straight games now they've allowed a game tying or winning drive.

Won the coin flip against the Buccaneers to start OT and won on the first drive, special teams bailed them out against the Broncos, let the Bills score 2 TDs to close the game out on us, offense won on the last drive against the Panthers, and the Raiders went full reerun at the end.

The defense is in dire straits right now, and it's largely because our secondary as a whole is ****ing trash sans Watson. Even McDuffie is playing well below his typical standard having to play outside instead of in the slot.

Because hes not good?

The problem hasn’t been corner the last 2 games minus the one Nazeeh **** up vs LV.

It’s the safeties. Every one of them have been embarrassed in man coverage on blitzes.

Every blitz is a disaster bc they get burnt over and over again.

It's not really a question of how good he is compared to the rest of the league, it's how good is he compared to who he would be replacing, bumping down down the depth chart...

Yeah, it's not even comparing to our current starters, it's comparing against the scenario of one of our guys getting hurt and someone down the list suddenly playing a ton of snaps.

When you put it that way it does male sense

Based on what? He played at a competent level last season. That would be a slightly higher level of play than we’ve gotten from that slot.

I definitely have a minor cringe when thinking about Nelson, but if Veach thinks he can make this team better then go for it.

Even when there is time to adjust to a poorly thrown ball, the safeties get burned.

all time classic CP moment. shit like that is why i stay posting here lmao

So bring in Sorensen for a look?

Freud was right.

Conner is probably your best coverage S considering he can also play a little CB. Signing Nelson allows you to put McDuffie in the slot and Conner in a true S role.

You ignoring this context and the issue at NB is quite odd considering you've been talking about how awful Conner has been for weeks.

He was pretty good last year in an outside press man role, which is exactly what we need.

But whatever you say Billay.

Fixing NB will certainly help but it doesn’t change the fact that every safety has been an absolutely disaster in coverage the last month or so except Hicks (who hasn’t played that much).

They haven’t been just bad. They’ve been a full on disaster.

JFC.

You're being obtuse. Go back and read my post again. Conner playing more of a S role would absolutely help our issues at S. He's our best coverage S. He's just not a full time slot CB.

The Chiefs had the chance to bring back Mike Edwards twice this season and passed both times. That would seem to indicate they believe in their coverage safety personnel but currently can't put them in positions to succeed. Or something. I can't explain what this team does anymore, they just make it work.

did we sign this piece of shit yet?

It's so so easy to be in shape. I mean so easy. Any athlete that isn't in shape just because they aren't signed I have no respect for.

He’s being a dick, as usual.

Screw you, Nelson! Get ready to suit up!

He'll be in on Monday. (Unless a racist fan detains him at the George Brett statue.) I've flipped on this to my usual stance: "IN VEACH WE TRUST."

Not really. Most players are beat up when they retire. It’s not like a regular gym goer not missing more than a few weeks at a gym even when sick.

A torn up athlete with years or surgeries just wants to lay back. Eat cake. Sometimes party and drink if they made money. Ect

when are we signing this piece of shit

Tomorrow morning

Sign Steven Nelson.

Sign Willie Nelson.

Sign Nelson Mandela.

Anything to keep #13 off the field.

I guess we have to make another move at CB if Joshua Williams is a lingering injury longer than a couple weeks. Annoying. I really dislike Nelson as a human, though.

Williams looked like he was finally settling in a little bit, playing better. This is tough.

Williams is a concussion right? That's usually sit one week then back the next.

I can’t hate the guy for hating Bob Sutton. We all hated Bob Sutton.

I’m willing to forgive and forget if he’s decent here. Sounds like he’s excited about Spags

I mean we almost have to sign him if its a reasonable price.

Will he start Sunday? Jameis gonna light this secondary up!

When Williams went out that’s when it seemed they started scoring

Why is this piece of shit no sign yet?

Give Nelson number 13

Number should have been retired after Steve Bono wore it.

Did he get his neck issue figured out?

He used to have a weird condition that prevented him from turning his head to look for the GODDAMN ****ING FOOTBALL.

Hope this dude is better than the Falcons CB from yesterday.

Right, no one from KC say anything mean to him this time. This guy has feelings too.

There was another one earlier when Darnold's arm got hit as he threw deep and the pass become something of an arm punt. There were two Falcons around Addison who didn't know where the ball was, and he casually caught it and scored as one of the defenders fell down.

They needed this badly. Gonna take a few games to get up to speed

Wow...talking about surfing the retirement center.
A new kind of desperation.

Good move

Had to happen, we're getting diced up back there... maybe some vet savvy is just what the doctor ordered

Could be our in-season Bashaud Breeland type of reward. An excellent pickup, yet again.

Time will tell, but they didn't have much choice. The Chiefs are like a MASH unit this year.

He blew when he used to be here but how much of that was from Grandpa Sutton. Depth can't hurt

Can he in any way help the safeties situation?

Because they were God awful last night.

I like the move even without the injuries that proceeded it.

Can’t have enough depth in the secondary.

Yes.

Charmarri Conner blows right now because he is being asked to play slot and can't.

Nelson playing means McDuffie can go back to the slot.

Really good move. Give him a two practice weeks to ramp up and hopefully he can play against his old team the Texans. Having him means we're gonna at least have two steady, reliable guys on the boundary and hopefully Trent can be freed up to do his thing and roam. Plus he's a guy who can take the ball away which could be a huge bonus moving forward.

Hope that is the plan. BUT wont that just create another problem on the outside?

Steven Nelson has been a legitimate starting corner for the last several years. Not elite, but solid to good.

He and Josh Williams outside with McDuffie inside is a pretty damn sticky trio, MUCH better than putting Nazeeh outside or Conner in the slot.

Okay. This might do something positive.

MUCH better. Nazeeh is small and barely has any experience playing in the NFL (he was mostly a special teams player before he got injured) and Connor was never a pure slot gut In college. So having two normal corners on the boundary who have lots of experience should hopefully garner way better results.

Other teams were saving him for us.

Thank shit we signed this piece of God
