That's without throwing in "One of the NFL's worst offenses with a back up 6th round rookie QB."

KC won several games just like this last year. This is going to matter when you face a good offense.

I mean they could hold the Raiders to 250 yards next week and they'd still make me nervous. Grandpa Bob's defenses clowned the ****in' Raiders.

And their back 7 is still TERRIBLE on paper, which was the same problem they had with Grandpa Bob.
Yeah, there's no shit there at all.

Ask any of these folks if they'd be saying any of this is Sutton was back. They KNOW they wouldn't be.

Nobody's saying that this defense is doomed to be the worst in the league again. I'm just saying that they played poorly yesterday and any kind of objective analysis has to come to that conclusion.

Especially if you're willing to ask yourself how you'd approach it if the offense HADN'T stepped up yesterday or if Sutton HADN'T been fired. Anyone that honestly thinks they'd have defended this defense had Sutton still been running it or even if Mahomes had to leave, the offense stalled and the Jags ended up winning 26-20 are just lying to themselves.

FFS, I think this team is going 14-2 and winning the SB. I friggen love the potential of this squad.

But because I watched a pass-rush go nowhere and a run defense give up 5+ YPC, I'm just some angry hater or some other dumb shit.

One can criticize a decision, a play, a player, a unit, a game, a coach, any or ALL of that shit without deciding that this is now a 1-15 team. G'damn people.
