Gunther's Goalline sell-out
 
was borderline reeruned. It was third and long from the one foot line; keep everything in front of you and DO NOT let them get a first. A punt from the endzone is a huge win in that situation.

I don't know that it cost us the game, but that drive didn't help.

Other than that, the defense (especially the young D-backs and the D-line) played quite well under Gunther's call.

It's Gunther, what did you expect?

Hammock Parties 09-07-2008 08:47 PM

Christ, here we go again.

The odds are that the Patriots weren't going to pass given the situation they were in. Since the Chiefs had come so close to forcing a safety on first and second down, it made sense for Gunther to go for the big play.

People will honestly bitch no matter what. Maybe if Patrick Surtain wasn't such a slow ****er they would have forced a punt. But blame Gunther.

SO McGraw not being in position has nothing to do with this?????? :spock:

McGraw blew his assignment. I dont know wtf he was doing in there in the first place. It shouldnt have happened. it was a pretty good play call. You dont leave Surtain on an island with Moss. As much as Gun is an average DC he's not that stupid.

jjchieffan 09-07-2008 08:48 PM

Gunther was playing aggressively. That is his strong suit. Are you guys actually going to bitch that the offense was too conservative, and then turn around and bitch because the D played aggressively?

Deberg_1990 09-07-2008 08:48 PM

That was a horrible call yes.

I wont get too down on Gun today, because the D played fairly good overall.

The Run D still has some problems. Pat Thomas is weak.

we had to go for the safety..it's not like the offense was going to do anything with Herm's dumbass playcalling

that said, it was a bad call because we could have tacked the mother****ers in the back endzone and they wouldn't have called a ****ing safety..**** the refs

noa 09-07-2008 08:49 PM

The worst part of it all was that we called a timeout to come up with that brilliant scheme. That gave them a chance to rest, assess the situation, and overcome some of the momentum that we had in our favor.

Mecca 09-07-2008 08:49 PM

Why is McGraw on the field?

Actually why is he even on the team?

ChiefsCountry 09-07-2008 08:50 PM

It was also Randy Moss as well. Not trying to defend them but it wasnt like we got beat by some scrub receiver.

You have Pat Thomas out there and you're complaining about McGraw?

A safety gives us 2 points and the result of a free kick. Punting out of the endzone sets us up pretty well on O. I'm not convinced that the small probability of getting a safety is a better play than forcing them to punt out of the endzone.

Well they both suck but we have 0 LB's if they're gonna put another safety out there didn't they just draft DaJuan Morgan?

McGraw is more of a libability than Pat Thomas is.
