Despite loss, Chiefs still first in the AFC Worst
Despite loss, Chiefs still first in the AFC Worst
At 4-4 with 2 home losses, all is not lost for the Kansas City Chiefs. An imploding division leaves the Chiefs still on top with SD’s loss at Minnesota and Denver’s humiliation at the hands of the red hot Detroit Lions. Changes are coming: Joe Buck plugged away at the Croyle-is-warming-up-on-the-sidelines angle; he got that idea from somewhere. Larry Johnson’s ankle roll looked like a season ender. Herm said we will see plenty of Kolby Smith along with Priest Holmes. I smell a RBbC… The better team won: Favre’s 360 yards passing on the road was a championship performance against a stout defense; Easy to see why the Pack cut Rayner in favor of Crosby; Even with plenty of yellow hankies assisting the KC offense’s anemic efforts, GB’s defense took away the run and shut down KC’s (admitted second string) WRs. The good: Alphonso Boone is a beast inside who creates all kind of problems for interior blockers; Dustin Colquitt. ‘Nuff said. The bad: 3 of 11 on third downs, Huard was sacked 5 times for -40 yards. Chief’s Cover 2 let WRs get behind them too much against a QB who made them pay for it. The ugly: Kansas City averaged just 4 yards-per-play. That is miserable. KC is dead last in play efficiency: more 3-and-outs than any team in the NFL. Bold prediction: Now that Herm is without LJ, he will have to be more creative on offense (which means actually trying to get 1st downs and score). He can no longer hide behind the mirage of “we’re a power running team”. Anticipated result: the Chiefs O will actually improve. KCJ |
