let's just say that Flowers and Routt can hold their own against White and Jones. Which guy are you going to have cover the 3 wide receiver?
Arenas is very limited about what type of receiver he can cover. The guy can't be too big or too fast.
Jalil Brown is stank ass
Jacques Reeves is even worse than stank ass
Travis Daniels is meh
who's going to cover Tony G?
apparently berry is going to play like a linebacker
Elam?
Lewis(even if he plays he can't cover worth a shit)
Hartman?
i still think we are going to struggle to cover tightends this year.
teams are going to do to us what teams did to the Steelers a few years back. Just go to a multiple receiver set, spread the defense and abuse the 3rd/4th corner.

I think you've gotten spoiled. Our CBs are top-notch. Travis Daniels, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated players on the Chiefs' roster. He's not an every day starter, but I'm very comfortable putting him out there as a #2 CB in a pinch. Arenas is terrific -- in the new NFL, you have to have smaller guys who can cover the slot and he's done very well. If need be, Travis Daniels can rotate up to the nickel.
So yeah, even with the Chiefs missing 2 key guys, the secondary is still pretty solid. With our starting guys, I think we have one of the deepest secondaries in the NFL.
PS the reason we couldn't cover tight ends in the past is because we didn't have Eric Berry. That changes this season. Piscatelli was an absolute embarrassment.
