Chiefs Tank Tyler gets his ass whipped - Page 2

No trip here. Just a 310-pound man getting destroyed by a 230-pound man.

This was after Tank got blown off the ball, naturally.

I don't think he saw him. He had a pretty serious case of tunnel vision there.

Tyler didn't play well, but this was a mental mistake, not a physical shortcoming. Experience and time can overcome that. I'm not so willing to give up on Tank just yet.

Mount Cody could be the pick... or Wilfork if he somehow gets unsigned by the pats...

Duck Dog · 08-31-2009, 12:39 PM

How could he of not seen that block coming? The back was right behind him. From that angle it looks like he was going miss the tackle anyway.

Tank was completely off balance, but that was a very good block. Tyler isn't exactly a pursuit guy, now is he? If he can plug both A gaps, we're ahead of the game.

Don't you mean we're NOT going NT in the 1st next year?

We IGNORE our needs, around here, mister. Don't you forget it.

Wide receiver in the 1st...

Cody is just a fat slob. He doesn't have the endurance or natural athleticism to be a great player IMO.

veist · 08-31-2009, 01:00 PM

If we take Cody next year in the first I may lose it. That may just because I don't like him at where we are going to be picking unless he shows a lot better conditioning this year.

capturing some good video to review

The question is, why is Tyler in pursuit of the play three yards off the line of scrimmage in the wrong direction?

I know it doesn't happen every single time, even to the best NT's in the game, but their job is to re-route that run, not to get blown off the line in the wrong direction and have to pursue the play/ball horizontally down the line of scrimmage. There was way too much of that in this last game, especially considering how many high picks we've spent on the defensive line in the draft the past four years.

On the positive, they seemed to be going away from Jackson after the first couple of series. Baby steps.

If you could get Ndamkong Suh of NU to add about 15 pounds, he'd be ultimate. The guy is an absolute beast, and is damn near unblockable at this point.

People like Cody because he's a mountain, but I think Suh is a better player in terms of NT.

Tyler was running and was hit between steps, it's not like he was coming out of his stance and got blasted. Anyone get get blasted if they get caught off-balance.

No, that happened a few seconds earlier at the snap.

Chief Faithful · 08-31-2009, 01:38 PM

Did you miss #74 holding Tyler's foot causing him to pursue off balance? As the coaches say, "stay on your feet!"

Quiet Storm · 08-31-2009, 01:41 PM

I have to agree with the Donkey homer. Cody looks like a fat sloth that oozes around. I don't want someone who is lazy and takes plays off to be the center piece of my defense.
