Herm is always saying that he wants to scheme to the strengths of his players. If he doesn't start allowing Brodie to play his game, I will be compelled to call bullsh*t on Herm once again. We have stalled out enough in the red zone for one year. And, calling three consecutive draws on 1st and 20 is tiresome for everybody. We have to realize that it will take time for Croyle to develop. We've already wasted some of that time. Holding him back will only prolong the process. FAX |

Having a big arm is very nice - but the fact is that virtually every time we try to throw deep Croyle either gets sacked or is forced to run. The strengths of the players includes the right tackle. |

I can't remember which quarter (2nd?), but the Chiefs were driving in Raider territory. They then got called for false start (in OUR stadium!), then holding, then Smith dropped two consecutive well-thrown passes. Had to punt again. I really felt sorry for Croyle at that point...

The TD last week and another out route this week depended heavily on Bowe being lanky and poised enough to pull down a ball and JUST get his feet in [in the former, with the ball between his knees]. And it's not in the 'we meant to do that' grace of a Bruce, Ocho-Cinco or Owens sideline route, but more of an 'oh crap, how do I haul that thing in' sense of desperate athleticism on the part of Bowe.

I have infinite respect for your football acumen, Mr. Baby Lee. But look. We have an idiot head coach who thinks he knows what's best for Croyle. He'll hold him back and drive the fear of turnovers into his mind because he thinks that's what a head coach should do. This will screw with Brodie's head. We have a rookie wide receiver and (for all intents and purposes) a rookie quarterback. It will take them time to sync up (assuming they ever do). In the meantime, if you're expecting every pass play to be a thing of beauty, your expectations may be a little higher than Downfield's passes to Gonzo over the middle. Trust me. Croyle knows how to deliver the football. If he can learn how to read defenses, accustom himself to NFL game speed, and find receivers he can trust and rely upon, he will move miles of chain, score actual touchdowns, and sport a passer rating Len Dawson would be proud of.

exactly, notice how once we started to mix the run up with the pass, we started moving the ball with ease? We cant keep doing the 'run run pass' on ever single possession we have. That has been the killer on offense. the lack of creativity with the OC coaching staff. They just need to let the guy play, dont hold him back, we are obviously not going to be playing for this years superbowl anyways. We have nothing to lose, for **** sakes, we;ve lost 4 home games this year...The last time that happened in KC was 2001, we went 6-10 that year. I honestly dont think we are better than that this year. |
