Chiefs Great Yahoo! article on Tony G, with a sad swipe at Solari.

"Sometimes we'd do all that shifting and defenses wouldn't move," Gonzalez recalled. "They'd just sit there and wait, and we'd run the ball into an eight-man front and get stuffed. Even when we had a mismatch, the quarterback didn't have the freedom to change the play at the line. It's dumbfounding that we didn't do that."

Props to the players for acting like pros and doing their job in spite of that embarassment. I would have been sorely tempted to walk off the field, kick the OC in the balls and refuse to play another down until they brought in a new coach.

LJ was pissed, and I never blamed him, yet the media and fans crushed LJ ... Solari never got as much blame as he deserved... or maybe it's Herm's fault for allowing that sad offensive game plan, I dunno.
