If you zero-out the physical aspect of the game, defense is about preparation, instinct, and reaction speed.

I have no idea whether or not this guy is good or whatever. Preseason is a completely different game. I do think, however, he's an instinctive player. His past coaches have all said that, Wally has said that, and you can see it in his game.

As a coach's son, he probably knows how to prepare, also. It will be interesting to see how (or if) he takes advantage of his opportunities.

I suspect he'll pick off Denver's QB around 7 or 8 times tonight.

Nah. He's dead to me.

Works for me.

They (the NFL) need to get back to basics. To paraphrase Casey Stengel, "Can't anybody in this league tackle?".


It's hard to practice tackling when you have little to no contact at practices anymore... The tackling seems to get better in week 6 on... but you can't replicate full contact.

That hit looks illegal in todays NFL though.

Iowanian 10-01-2018 02:19 PM

he's not a superior freak athlete and he's not going to hit like a monster but he'll find the ball and put a hit on people.


HTisbbq is right that Josey Jewell is a good player and I hated that he went to Denver, but Niemann can play ball. He'll help the Chiefs.

He's pretty small, but damn he does seem to have good instincts. I wanted the Chiefs to pick up Dylan Cole from MSU, local kid from here in Springfield. Dude was undersized but a freak athlete with good instincts.

Seems that's a much bigger deal at ILB than I thought.

4.6 40 for Niemann though... so pretty good athleticism still
