at least our first rounder this year actually played/started/did something

our first rounder of 2011 the mighty practice god Jon Baldwin is the 4th WR and like 10th option on the offense and stands on the sideline.

Literally non-factor. It's an awful pick if they arent even going to use the kid. You could have taken anything else there. A CB, a Safety and Pass rusher, whatever.

Matt can't rally troops and they probably don't believe in him anyway. Yes the defense was bad and banged up but his two shitty throws and his of course his fumble, which seems to haopen every game, destroyed any hope. He can't handle pressure and plays unertain of himself.

I laughed. I cried. I'd see it again and again, but with a different woman every time.

The Baldwin thing is disappointing. I wasn't a big fan of the pick when it happened, but had hope for him. So does he get no action because he can't get open, or does he get no action because Cassel never looks for the #2 receiver?

Every guy but Baldwin caught a pass. Not sure why.

Lets wait more than one week before calling it a pattern.

Meh, I give Baldwin a pass. He was drafted to replace Bowe.

1- This team missed Flowers and Hali. duh.
2- Matt Cassel is a piece of shit.
3- The play-calling was atrocious. Especially after the Atlanta defense just started pinning their ears back.

oh my..

Aldon Smith got jobbed right there. It really looked like he was the stupidest guy on earth throwing his helmet, but it really was kind of coming off anyway after getting kicked.

It's not really working, unless he's replacing the holdout part of Bowe.

This is something I brought up a while ago. I am NOT a fan of the hires we made in the offseason and I think they are due to Pioli croneyism instead of merit.

Romeo's team did look soft and I'll again question why we weren't doing tackling drills in the offseason and whether it's a good thing (as everyone praised before) that Romeo's first area of emphasis was putting our defense in the film room instead of the weight room. Second, Brian Daboll was brilliant in the first half, but his second half was an embarrassment. Atlanta had their number. Either the second half was a fluke for Daboll and he's actually good, or he's handcuffed by Cassel, or he's just not good at making adjustments, or Atlanta built the blueprint for how all future defenses stop the Chiefs' offense. That's very, very concerning.

Third, to leadership... for as well as Cassel played, same questions come up. Is he a QB players want to do battle for. He played lethargically frustrated in the second half. And it's funny, when he celebrates, he always strikes me as the Waterboy when he tries to get people to "slap hands" with him.

This team has no heart at the first sign of adversity they quit.

It's Romeo and his coaching style. Take away the weird preseason decision by Haley that handcuffed this team for the first 4 weeks, his Chiefs always played hard for him, and to the last minute.
