Gretz: An Ugly Start For The New Regime (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=212036)

This place is hilarious. I watched the game twice, and was very encouraged. Mostly by the coaching, clock managment, the way they handled the challenge, etc.

If McIntosh is still on this team, I will be very dissapointed. Brodie Croyle looked good, and for their first time in a 3-4 the defense looked good IMO.

Corey Mays had Lawrence Taylor eyes... keep watch on this kid....

Wash, rinse, repeat.

Also, I was relatively happy with the defense. I guarantee, there are people in Houston pissed off that they were not able to score more TD's against us. Considering the situation that the offense left them in, I thought 16 points wasn't a bad showing at all. They are only going to get better.

Not really. People here are all up in how the Texans # 1's moved the ball at will. Schaub was perfect and Brown steam rolled the Chiefs # 1 D. Had they played longer, they could have scored a ton. In fact, theyre making a big deal as to how far in the game the Chiefs starters were playing and the Texans were playing thier backups. The Texans D is on the hot seat this year and the local media have cautioned the fans to not make too much of this good showing because after all it was "just the Chiefs."

In any case, I agree they the Chiefs are gonna get better, which is an about face to what has occured the last 3 seasons.

I'm not wrapped up in the overall wins/losses in the preseason, but am more interested in how the starters match up.

Our defensive starters couldn't stop Houston's 1st or 2nd offensive unit.

Meanwhile, our offensive starters didn't move the ball against Houston's 1st or 2nd defensive unit.

With the exception of Bowe, who was running against 2nd/3rd teamers, none of the guys that will playing regularly on Sundays looked promising.

Hopefully, that changes by September.

That may be because Houston is better than the Chiefs.

What game were you watching? I recall several back field stuffs and stops at the line of scrimmage.

Houston popped off one fairly decent east/west run, but it was hardly a game-changer.

ol bob needs to get his panties out of a twist.
