Chiefs Defense VS. Cardinals Offense!

Yes it is preseason, but it seems there is a lot of fans worried about the Chiefs D. and the revamped Arizona Offense led by Kurt Warner looks dangerous on paper. When you break it down though it does not look that intimidating.

Kurt Warner-from stock boy to MVP Is the new QB after a short and embarassing stay with the Giants. Yes he has made a name but if you look at his recent numbers, Warner looks like a has been.

2004 10 games 2054 yards 6 TD's 4 Int Sacked 39 times 12 Fumbles with 4 Fumbles lost.
In the last 3 Years his numbers look worse!
10 TD's 16Int with 25 Fumbles.

JJ Arrington-RB 2018 yards rushing at Cal. last year. All ready being touted as the RB steal of the draft. The Chiefs should see a lot of this guy-but he is still a Rookie and trying to learn the system. KC needs to contain the edges where he is good at bouncing out for big games. Not a bruising back, but very fast. Hopefully DJ will smash him a few times and give him an Arrowhead welcome to the NFL.

The Big Three, as they are being called. Boldin, Fitzgerald, Johnson. Once again, a lot of hype for guys that put up average numbers last year.

Anquan Boldin 2003 1377 yards 8 TD's but in 2004 623 yards 1 TD

Larry Fitzgerald In 16 games 780 yards 8 TD's

Bryant Johnson 537 yards 1 TD

They are still dangerous and should provide a good test to the Chiefs secondary, but just a bit overhyped.

I expect that Vanilla defense we saw last week to have some hot fudge and sprinkles this week. I think Gun will stop the run and then blitz Warner until he quits, or get hurt like he usually does. When the second stringers come in its a toss up.

What is your opinion on the match up? Can the Chiefs shut down the Hype machine?
