Jones has played three games
Clark has played three games and had no preason games
Ward has played three games
Gay has played three games
Thornhill is just starting games now
So four key pieces on the defense has played less than half the games and yesterday was the first time they've all been on the pitch together.
Yes, much of the problems have been down to players not being good enough (Dan, Niemann, Hughes etc), players playing out of position ( Jones and Bolton) etc but for a defense to show it's best self you need to things..one is for your best players to be on the field..and two for your unit to actually play together and build chemistry..so far those two key things have evaded the Chiefs defense..that's just a fact.
I don't think it's a coincidence that the longer the defense has been on the field throughout the game these last three weeks, the better they have done.
