Do we need another thread to gripe about last night? Of course we do! So here's one more.

Pick an option or add your own.

I am not really seeing it either. I guess I defer to those here that seem to study or focus on offensive line play more than I do, but they don't look really good to me.

I don't know how you can look at the regression of the secondary as well as guys on the DL like Reed and Nnadi (setting aside Clark or even the performance of Jones to this point) and say that's the case.

Yes, this unit is absolutely underperforming its talent level. Is it a top 5 talented defense? No? Top 10 even? Probably not. Is it top 20? Well yeah, and even if you don't think it is, it's not the worst defensive roster in NFL history.

And that's the performance we're getting right now. That's a real indictment on the staff.

I think the Oline just kinda plays like the rest of the team when things are good/bad.

When your ST return guy fumbles the ball early in the game... it hurts.
When your best WR doinks a ball off his facemask for a pick-6... it hurts.
When your defense gives you little to no help and you know you can't make the mistakes listed above... it hurts.

These mental bruises will effect the people around you and that's why you see momentum swings in sports.


If you are BOWLING (haha yes... ) and your buddy has 3 strikes through the first 3 frames, and you haven't even a Spare... how hard are you going to compete through the rest of the game? I know I'm going to focus more on my beer, and come prepared for round 2.

Sometimes I think sports can be like that... you get deflated and you come back the next game fresh.


The ironic part about this post is that the Chiefs came back through the entirety of their playoff wins and Superbowl.
For some reason they have lost the confidence to do it.

Which is fine... because it's not a sustainable trait to keep playing through 3 quarters of trash football to flip a switch in the 4th.

It just depends on what version you're thinking about.

Has it improved over the atrophy riddled pile of smashed assholes that ended the season? Oh hell yes - by orders of magnitude.

Is it obviously better than the Fisher - Osemele - Reiter - Wylie - Schwartz? No, not really. It's different, but I wouldn't say it's clearly better either.

But it's early. The OL is well down my list of concerns. The talent is there, the mindset is there. That can be a good line and potentially even a great one.

Cdot going off on Veach and how he's been good at resigning Dorsey players. Doesn't appear to look at fixing multiple issues and only addresses one need each off-season. CEH looks like a bad pick too

So, are defensive coordinators making Patrick's strength a weakness? Attacking his ability to improvise by showing him what he wants to see and then taking it away?

Combine this with the lack of running game and skill players and the result is the offense is limited and predictable.

As I said then - I don't need to hear why a person failed at his last stop, I need to know why he'll succeed at this one.

If all he can do is be successful when he has great players...what's he actually good for? I believe I called him Gunther 2.0 at the time and to date I've seen little to change that opinion.

I do think he's actually quite good at coaching up a secondary, but when I see coverages blown time and time and time again, it makes me wonder if the message is being lost. It's unlikely to be a teaching thing because there's very little changover on the roster. Something has the coordination in the defensive backfield a far cry from where it was a season ago.

So if the message is being lost and he's mostly a product of his players anyway...well maybe it's time for a change in the messenger...
I wouldn't call him Gunther 2.0, Gunther never won anything. Spags has coached 2 SB winning defenses. Gunther also coached some of the best defenses in NFL history and didn't win. And before anyone starts blaming the Marty offenses did any of those defenses make a game winning play in the playoffs? I went to many of those playoff losses and I don't remember any.

And before anyone gets it twisted I am not defending Spags this season or any of the shitty Marty offenses. But we had great defenses back then and guys like DT didn't show up alot of the time.

CEH is a bad pick. RB is always a bad pick in round 1.

Really? Blaming the Marty defenses? If Mahomes had a Marty defense we would be damn near unbeatable.

If you draft a RB it better be a weapon that scares people.

CEH is not that.

Lack of a pass rush is the main problem. Most of the defense problems is caused by this.

Obviously not. I wanted to grab a pass-rusher the year we took CEH but if we had gotten a real weapon there no one would be complaining.

Ed is already a broke dick that makes too much money. RB's don't win you shit. We won with an RB that that got cut from 3 other teams.
