Yep.

Now Sutton should absolutely be held responsible for continuing to trot out Kendrick Lewis, even though it was obvious he was a dried up dog turd.

That is an easy prediction. This place is always calling for everyone's head. It doesn't mean Sutton is a problem though, just that this forum loves to bitch about everything.

I can split the difference of blame between Sutton and the lack of talent on defense. After the Colts loss, Brian Billick was asked how the Chiefs could have imploded so bad and he said " That guy (Hilton) making all the plays..I tell my DC if that guy catches one more ball , you're fired. I don't care if we lose but that guy doesn't catch another ball." I agree with this.

Sutton is trash and it's an absolute joke that he's still DC. The defense beat up on backups in the first half of the season but then got burned by virtually every team since the bye including the likes of Case Keenum, Ryan Fitzpatrick, McGloin, etc. The complete and utter systematic dismantlement of them in the 2nd half against the Colts says it all.

and that makes it a DC/play call problem, and not the guys doing the covering?

:rolleyes:

Agreed, splitting the difference sounds like the fairest answer here.

And yeah, I love Billicks answer.

True, but who makes the final decisions on personnel moves? Doesn't the HC decide who is active? Reid should also share in this.
