Hell, he could give Mike Peterson Mike Peterson lessons. And then when he was done, he'd teach him how to be Aaron fucking Curry.
LOL

The way I look at this is, drafting Aaron Curry this high is like saying Carl Banks was as important as Lawrence Taylor which is pretty laughable.

Our dime a dozen LB's have really served us well havent they?

Obviously a franchise QB is an important piece of the puzzle, but this single-minded QB Kool-Aid that has you thinking the Chiefs will be SB bound once they draft one is as bad as the "True Fan" nonsense.



Is there anyone else in the draft with Curry's skill set? I've heard talk that this year's draft is full of rush backers, so if we're in a 3-4 and Curry is the only guy around that can do what he does, is his value increased as a result?
No your right, its not cut and dry as that. It takes both sides of the ball to win a championship...

Where did I say that the Chiefs were superbowl bound if they drafted a QB? Please Quote that...

That is NOT HOW YOU DRAFT, how many of those great Steelers LB's were high draft picks..oh yea Lawrence Timmons was taken like 20th none of the other ones were first round picks by them..

The LB position is filled in the middle rounds, or even UDFA the Steelers and Ravens are examples of this, they are not examples that you take non rushers in the top 10.

Alot of this fanbase just like to criticize franchise QB's because we have never drafted one.
****. People on this board criticize Aikman now, even after he's in the HOF. Some posters say he was carried by all of the talent that surrounded him.

Sound familiar?

Using the Chiefs to form an opinion is dense, that's like saying you don't watch the rest of the NFL and see how top level teams are built...

Because the Chiefs couldn't do something right doesn't mean you do it the complete opposite way either because that then makes you a reaching reerun.

Best post so far. This either or shit is getting old.

I don't think many people will get that reference from the old star board.

Oh, the Mike Peterson stories I could tell. He cured cancer while using his dick as a land bridge to get the native americans back to asia.

But he was no Aaron Curry. No sir.

So are you formally stating that Aaron Curry is the second coming of Ray Lewis?

Poor CB's don't get noticed as much when you run the zone blitz right. Put a ton of pressure on the QB with confusing blitzes and have your CB's or LB's step in the throwing lanes.

3-4 will make poor CB's average and average CB's good. They only have to cover for a few seconds unlike our old Cover-2 which put a ton of pressure on the corners and cover LB's because we could never get pressure on the QB because we were sitting back letting the O dictate what happened.

It's a fine post but we aren't gonna win a bowl with our best player being a strong side LB either...

Pass on a QB this year then we're stuck next year with no QB and a bunch of high level defensive players at the top of the draft.

Its just a mindset in the fanbase... Some want defense and 9-7, others want a QB and a chance to win a superbowl...
Sounds like Super Bowl hype to me. Either way, you're presenting a false choice there because the Chiefs need both, especially with our roster.

Deberg_1990 02-18-2009 10:29 PM
We cant draft a QB this year because Carl failed 26 years ago with Blackledge.
