Thoughts on Preseason Game #2

The irony is that it is two sides of the same coin.

Allen Bailey actually generated a decent push on passing downs and also made a nice stop playing the 5-tech in our 3-4 with the 3rd st I believe.

Additionally, I haven't re-watched the game yet, but it seemed to me that we played a lot less press coverage and more off-man. Pretty vanilla stuff that allowed Bradford to get easy crossing routes completed.

that's because we have to play turds like Jacques Reeves and Jalil Brown.

He's whoring QB rating at the expense of an offense that can actually compete with playoff caliber teams. Need 9 yards for the first down? Box score says Matty completed it (for 7). Down by 14? Matty went on a 12-14 streak (for a FG and the team lost by 18).

Buckle your seatbelts football fans. Matty is gonna take us on another Pro Bowl season ride. Yes, we'll get embarrassed by the true competitors of the league, but we may fall assbackwards into the playoffs by winning the worst division in the NFL. And boy oh boy, look at Matty's stat line.

Does the box score show what we can all clearly see which is his velocity is visibly improved and his accuracy seems improved as well? Does it have a stat for how much more comfortable he appears to be without three guys yelling in his ear before every play? Does it show that he seems more confident with where he is choosing to throw the ball, check down or not?

there is much truth in this post.

Like it or not.

Now, sand the floor.

Tonight's game was basically a team that came in way over confident against a team that had a major chip on its shoulder from last week's blowout. Chiefs thought they would walk in to St. Louis and roll the Rams like they did Arizona last week. Rams came out and knocked us in the mouth right off the bat and they didn't react until the second quarter. Starters started to get in the flow and by halftime they were playing pretty well. Regular season we probably turn it on in the second half and cruise to victory. Cassel played well for just dinking it down the field most of the night. I swear he is like somebody who has sports cars in the garage but drives around on the bicycle in the yard because its safer. Oh well, its nice to see him play well now for the idiots like Pioli and Pawnmower to yap it up now until we meet a legit playoff team and he shits himself. Life of a Chief fan. Stanzi played tonight like Cassel did against the Ravens. Holy shit, he ****ed himself. Oh well, 5th round picks don't win Super Bowls so no biggie in the scheme of things. Rams played like they wanted it more tonight, thats pretty much the bottom line tonight. Atlanta game can't come soon enough.

Cassell DJ/tamba and charles were the only players we had

[BossChief]

One thing is absolutely certain.

This team needs it veterans and young veterans to step up this year ACROSS THE BOARD and this game should have been a HUGE wake up call to show how much more work they need to do if they want to be able to step up and play with the big boys.

Dexter McCluster is kicking big time ass out there and is arguably our best receiver

He had 3 catches for 23 yards because he is a useless bastard who can't get open past 10 yards (unless the coverage is completely blown via play action like last week)

Honestly dude, go **** yourself until you wake up about DMC.

Why do people rehash mistakes from yrs past?

Find something else to bitch about. You can't change it.

I swear this place will shut down if the Chiefs ever win a SB.

Wtf will everyone complain about?

Not repeating

If you're going to make an excuse for Baldwin use the dipshit in my avatar. He is also the reason people think Bowe isn't a top 5-6 WR in the league.

**** its an easy argument to make and actually has merit unlike him needing 3 yrs...

[Hammock Parties]

The dude was the checkdown king. He made two throws down the field all night, dude.

And he overthrew a deep ball to Baldwin, giving him no chance to catch it.

It was classic Cassel.

What are you smoking?

Ya know, if you rule out the first five minutes, it was an evenly-matched game. /homer
