So many players to finally see in action.

No injuries and a Chiefs victory would be swell.

It was good to knock some rust off and get out there and fly around."

Holy shit you guys are blowing every little thing this guy does/says out or proportion. Nothing wrong with that quote.

You're probably right, staylor. However, I'd be more inclined to cut him a break if he in fact made a play or two whilst he was "flying around" out there. I'm tired of waiting on this guy to do something.

Cheating offensive line. Not great. Cheating. I guess maybe they were great at cheating, though.

He'd better realize that there is a lot riding on the Rams game.

I didn't see a thread in the lobby, but apparently Bray is "injured"

Does that mean he isn't getting cut?

milkman · 08-15-2016, 07:37 PM

Does anyone know how many players have had multiple 20 sack seasons?

I'll give you a hint.

It falls somewhere between 0 and 2.

Yes I heard that as well. Shouldn't be any rust but rather he should have said still working on "hitting on all cylinders" if he were honest.

Don't try and tell Dane that. Dude acts like those kinds of seasons are run of the mill.

"Yeah, he'll need uh a couple more 20 sacks seasons, two Super Bowl rings, a league MVP, aaaaand, oh yeah, 80 tackles (because that ****ing matters for a 3-4 OLB) before I consider him elite."

**BossChief** · 08-15-2016, 08:51 PM

Houston was an elite defender because he was top notch against the run, was a ferocious pass rusher with as much ability as anyone that could beat you with quickness, speed or power...and was solid in coverage.

There really aren't many players like him in the league.

I have said all along I hope he's able to return after the bye week against the Raiders. That's gonna be a big game.

I think that's actually the opposite of what his original argument was.

He was saying that the likelihood of Houston performing that well ever again is extremely low. Therefore it doesn't make a lot of sense to think that the drop off to a replacement level player will be as significant as people are making it out to be.

Yeah, he was wrong about that as well. Just because Houston doesn't notch another 22-sack season doesn't mean his impact in other aspects of the game won't be significant. The drop-off from Houston to Ford is like a ****ing chasm. Think the Grand Canyon. For God's sake, people are talking about cutting Ford in another thread!

At any rate, he actually did say exactly what I just facetiously posted. He said Houston isn't elite, explicitly.

People are stupid and Houston has made zero impact in the playoffs.

You have zero understanding of football.

Z-E-R-O.

Good luck with your fantasy team.

saphojunkie · 08-15-2016, 08:59 PM

Fair enough but there is a middle ground. We did win games without Houston, as we did without Charles. That doesn't mean they aren't great, just that the roster strong enough to survive being without a playmaker for a few weeks.

I think Ford has a LONG way to go, but I'm not panicking about the season.

One season doesn't make someone "Elite".

You are a byproduct of today's society.

Everything is "Amazing". People that just do their own shit to an average level are praised, not by their employer, but by their friends as being "exceptional".

Just like your dumbass showing off a 27" TV.
