Quintin Demps Named Kick Returner for Chiefs
 

Interesting. Was hoping we'd see some Miles Davis back there.

Quentin Demps is a 'QD'!

That's a name that just SCREAMS, "WE'RE STARTING AT THE 12"!

Ya because he didn't have a return TD in preseason

The opponent's 12?

He better have more.

If we're lucky.

IIRC he didn't have a return chance in PIT or vs GB

I expect Dante Hall-meets Devin Hester from this individual.

Nothing else will suffice.

Jesus

LMAO And Jesus too.

Here's an interesting tidbit. It turns out that when the Jags turned over their roster, they really turned their special teams over...

"From the Jaguars’ game at Atlanta last week, gone are eight of the 11 players on the first kickoff return, six from the first covered kickoff and five from the first punt return."

You can go here to read the article.

He'll end up being one of the most underrated pick ups of the off season of any team. I didn't even know we had picked him up until training camp. Great depth.

Sounds ripe for the pickin~

:LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

Dave Toub is gonna win this game single-handedly.

Sanders Commings is going to dress while on IR? That's pretty crazy Chiefs!

GET THAT CHIEFS DEFENSE IN FANTASY NOW, FOLKS!!!!

That certainly seems like a possibility at this point...

I'm very serious.

Our offense will not be good, the defense will give up gobs of rushing yards...but special teams is going to win this game for us.

I bet we score 20+ now just based on field position. LMAO

You're absolutely nuts.

Our offense is going to manage our way to wins behind Charles, who's played behind much worse o-lines. Our run defense is going to be outstanding. It's our deep pass defense and nickel/dime defense that will kill us.

And our special teams will get us terrific field position.

They are who we thought we were. Probably an 8-10 win team who we'll have to hope will game manage our way to a playoff win or two, but that gameplan makes us long shots.

As long as it's not McCluster, it's good with me.

I'm still a bit concerned about Kniles fumbling. I'd work him in gradually.

Here's are starting front seven:

DE: DeVito
NT: Poe
DE: Jackson

OLB: Hali
ILB: Jordan
ILB: Johnson
OLB: Houston

How, exactly, are you going to stack up yardage on the ground against this defense?

By running on third and long? Because that's what it's going to take.

The Chiefs defense is going to suffer in the passing game, not the running game.

You CANNOT run the ball at DeVito or Jackson. Poe is getting there, and is getting great backup from DJ, Jordan, and Berry.

I dare every team in the league to try to run more than 55% of their snaps on us.

If I had to guess, I'd say they'll probably give up a couple of long-ish runs on blown assignments or over-agressive pursuit, and the rest of the game they'll give up about 2 yards a carry. They should be tough to run on.

Completely agree. We saw that some already against Pittsburgh, and saw it some with us biting on the bootleg. The good news is, this D-line is by a mile the best our team has been in YEARS at plugging the line. It's going to be really, really hard to run inside on us.

Honestly, if Hali doesn't make a rookie mistake and holds that edge, that's it.

The big run against Pitt never happens. And the Steelers have to air it out to beat us.

That's how teams will have to beat us. They will have to kill us in the air. Unfortunately, more than a few of them will.

But we're not going to get gashed in the run.

I think so, but there were some preseason games where they bit really, really hard on a run. We saw slow QB flash that a simple bootleg could kill us. I'm sure playfakes and counters too.

If our back 7 doesn't play with some discipline, a little misdirection could really hurt us.

Something that could be said for every defense, really.

I'd like to see us put two guys back there every now and again. Some teams do more regularly...

It's hard to tell from a preseason, especially learning a new defense. But I disagree. There were definitely moments in the preseason against really vanilla offenses where this looked like it could be a problem. I think disciplined defenses can stay at home and prevent overpursuit.

They are just burying Hemmingway huh? Wow. Aj Jenkins over him. That's CRAZY.

I don't think it means anything. I think Jenkins will compete with avery for the number two, and McCluster will compete with hemmingway for the slot. I honestly see hemmingway getting more snaps because I could see him as a slot guy in possession situations and even 4 receiver sets. Under vermeil, recall that dante hall often split slot reps with guys like beringer and Chris horn.

Ahhhh. Gotcha. Just seemed weird. I don't know what Aj did to earn his place on the depth chart. Where as Hemmingway was the best receiver on the Chiefs in the preseason.

That doesn't mean anything. Hemingway is Bowe's backup. Only reason McCluster is listed behind Bowe is because we don't list a WR3 on the depth chart for the slot WR.

Anyone else see that Aj Jenkins changed his number?

Hes now number 15

Good for Demps. Well deserved.

Last time he was with Andy Reid he had pretty good return numbers as a rookie.

Yeah they had a few other players change their number.

LMAO

No pressure.

What in the world leaves you to believe JAX is going to run on us?

MJD + new defensive scheme

MJD is all they have going for them. Gabbert is a fail

ya but who is our ACE GUNNER!!!!!!

McCluster is the PR? Imagine that? The KC radio guy is a total douche.

Well, guess I'll have to drop Knile from my fantasy roster now. 2 TDs in preseason not good enough I guess.

The secondary depth is awful that defense could give up 500 yards a game if Parker or the other scrub see the field.

Hali and Houston are the beacons of hope vs the deep ball.

Thats my boy, I am so proud of him.

teams are going to pass the ball first until our defense starts to weaken, they they run it.

Quinton Demps? Print'em.

Pretty good depth this year.

I think we may end up seeing Knile a bit more at RB2 this season than what many are anticipating, but I could be wrong...just a hunch.

I agree. Cyrus Grey will be right there too.

I love our RB tandem right now. JC, this dude who apparently put up some of the best combine numbers since Bo Jackson, and Cyrus the Virus.

Awesome.

:D

Davis will have to prove the fumbling is behind him before he gets the nod.
It undoubtedly cost him the job.
