Babb: Hali a player opponents notice

[Color Red]

Unfortunately it is because a team looks at another team's depth chart and asks if there is anyone who is an impact kind of player, a player as they say, that has to be accounted for on ever play. In KC we've narrowed that down to 91. If Dorsey did now what he did in college, he would be that kind of player. Allen was that way. DT certainly was that way.

It is funny to read the justifications for continuing to dismiss Hali as a quality player.

Whatever you have to tell yourself. Funny how NFL scouts, coaches and players take notice..... but the all knowing Chiefs planet board is just sure he sucks.

This coming from a group of guys that would jiz to just step foot on an NFL field.... priceless.

Pretty much. I give some guys credit for admitting they were wrong, but a lot of the same people just keep going on and on about how he sucks yet every week his name is the first to come up from opposing offensive players. The comeback to that is "well of course he's the best of 11 turds" or something of that nature but it's just deflection. Hali has been very solid and has even looked fine in pass coverage situations.

I stand by my statement that if he were rushing against the right tackle every week he'd be a 10+ sack guy. Even coming across from the left tackle he still looks like he's going to be in that 7-9 sack range this season.

I think he hits double digits this year. The Chiefs have played the strongest part of their schedule, and I think game situations will improve his chances.

Of course, then, he will just be a below average double digit sack guy.

Yeah. I know everyone here is an expert, and would be an NFL GM if they could take the pay cut, but this isn't some ESPN sportswriter who knows nothing, these are players and coaches in the league saying he's becoming someone they look out for.

I can handle people who will admit when they are wrong but the asswhipes around here refuse to admit they are wrong even when it is right in front of them.


Hypocrisy Planet.

He's basically the only pass rush threat...even if he is a marginal one.

Vrabel is sad.

Speaking of Vrabel...

The sports radio station that I listen to here in Dallas has a segment on Tuesdays called the Marty B Show featuring Martellus Bennett (he's the backup tight end for the Cowboys). He was talking about having to block Vrabel (he kept calling him Verbal). Bennett explained that before almost every play Vrabel would be screaming out loud to the defense what play the Cowboys were going to run. Bennet said that Vrabel was right about 80% of the time, but the Chiefs just couldn't do anything about it and Vrabel was too old to do anything about it. While trash talking he told Vrabel "Man you are so old....you are stealing money by trying to play at your age. Go home old man."

Maybe Vrabel could be our next DC?

Vrabel's earning $3.5 million dollars per year. He's made more than $20 million in his career. He's 34 and has no ties to this area.

Why in the world would a 34 year-old multi-millionaire who's at the end of his career even considering working 70 hours a week for less than $1 million dollars per year?

This is just as bad as the people who clamored for Trent Green (he of $50 million dollars) to be the quarterback coach.

You don't get the fact that some guys love the game that much. Not everything is always about the money.

Seems to me Vrabel had 1 more TD and 1 more catch than Bennet did.

Actually the show host brought that up and Martellus then laughed and made fun of himself. BTW this was all done in a funny sort of way - Bennet is quite a clown. Look up MartyBTV on youtube.

This is why I stop by the planet. I got totally side tracked and watched all his stupid videos, thanks.

Marty's a pretty funny dude actually and reminds me of someone I know.
