Philip Gaines Review
On my phone so somebody else can post the story.
http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2016/9...source=twitter This guy looked really good last weekend. It really shows just how big of a loss he was last year and how much faith Dorsey had in this guy to replace Sean Smith. Hope he keeps it up. |

I think fans know he will be good. They are just concerned he might be injury-prone.
I thought before last year he could have a better 2015 season than Marcus Peters...well that was before Peters had a great season. |

He's going to have his hands full with Fuller.

He'll face him and Hopkins both since our CBs don't travel. His length and quickness make for a good counter to those two, but it won't be easy.
The front 7 has to show up in the run game and create long yardage situations. |

I really, really wanted to keep Sean Smith, but after seeing what Cooks in the Saints did to him last week after he got his big payday, I think Dorsey he made the right move, even considering the fact that it was reeruned to put him on an island out there with Cooks.
Benched. First game after getting paid. Gaines just HAS to stay healthy. That's what it all hinges on.... Oh, and there ain't no way Gaines is getting torched for 98 yards. |

I actually like Gaines on Fuller. Both guys are athletes with some rough edges to their games. Fuller's not going to go out there and kill Gaines with technique nor is he going to be able to just out-athlete him. Gaines vs. Fuller should be a draw.

I agree. That's going to be a fun matchup to watch.

I just wish Gaines would tackle. Yes, i read the article and i disagree with him regarding his physicality. Peters is a poor tackler as well.
I like our corners, don't get me wrong. But this might be the worst pair of tackling corners i've seen on the Chiefs in the last 10 years. Peters doesn't look like a particularly willing tackler. Especially compared to Brandon Flowers, who was tremendous in run support. Gaines DOES, but he seems to just bounce off ball carriers every time he attempts to tackle. Hell, even in the article the final Gif shows him bouncing off (Travis Benjamin?) on that WR screen even though he had a clear crack at him.

I got this impression too, but it might just be because EVERYBODY was tackling like shit in that game. Hope they all pull their heads out of their asses this week...

Those guys have Berry, Parker and Sorenson backing them up. Those three are NAILS when it comes to thumping and tackling. The CBs main focus is to prevent completions. |

No, he was atrocious. Tackler is not the right word for whatever he was attempting.

The good news is, tackling for a corner is pretty far down the list of things he needs to do.
