The Pats have the BEST LBing core in the NFL. The Chiefs have one of the worst.
The Pats have one of the best D-lines in the league and a hell of a pass-rush. The Chiefs are mediocre at best on the D-line.

It doesn't matter how good or bad our corners are ... with a NON consistant pass rush we fail to keep the opposing quarterback from having all day to find an open guy.
BCF is right ... without ALL players being on the same keel, (relentless passrush and key LB's playing well) it is a fruitless effort for our secondary to keep up with ANY reciever. Cliff |

Sacks are the most overrated stat. in the NFL anyway. But I'd agree that we have one of the best LB groups in the NFL, and yours are unremarkable to say the least.

in other words, they can't play zone either knob'son tried playing bend but don't break zone defense they year before as well. slow death, quick death ![]() until we get guys that can cover, it doesn't matter what we play. as for all the guys that talk pass rush first.... their we several times in the super bowl where the secondary broke up passes when the pass rush couldn't make it... they also tackled well. our coverage is BY FAR our weakess part of the defense.

No one has answered my question.
Gunther's D was flawed. He played tight man to man and we got burnt a ton. We needed to play off the receiver so he doesn't burn us and force the other team to move the ball slowly with dink and dunk passes so we have a shot at INT'ing. I guess getting a better corner will help . I am going to say this about next season. Trying to cover the 'burner type' (T.O.) receivers with man to man is a big mistake. I don't care what corner you have with these new rules. Gunther will also be on the hot seat if easy TD's still occur. |

I saw a lot of man coverage often without safety help over the top. He didn't do as much press coverage as the Chiefs did this year though.

I'm of the opinion that you can take the most talented shut-down corner in the NFL, and turn him into a bad one by having play on a defense in which the front four couldn't warrant a starting spot on any other NFL team.
Of course our corners were bad - any corner will 'become' terrible if they have to cover for 7+ seconds. Our last great corners (Hasty/Carter) also had the bennefit of a productive pass rush. Our front four hit the opposing O-Lineman...and nothing else happens; they get owned.
