Thoughts on Preseason Game #2

[Priest31kc]

Seeing the defense getting gouged like the beginning of last year again is kinda concerning.

Our pass defense struggles on 1st downs against base formations over the middle because our LB's aren't that great in coverage and Dorsey, Jackson & whoever is in the middle doesn't get enough pressure. That's our main weakness.

Run defense looked horrible. We were inconsistent against the run last year, some games we looked great, some we got gouged...we need more consistency.

We need Flowers back...Obviously Flowers & Carr>>>>Routt & Brown. Im curious to see how good Routt will look with Flowers on the other side.

Cassel looked good again....but we really need to get our WRs going. Breaston hasn't even had a target yet...Baldwin has been disappointing. Getting Bowe back is nice. Boss looks like he's our main target at TE right now, looks like Moeaki is being brought along slowly.

Charles looks like the pre-injury Charles. 5+ yards every damn time he touches the ball. Amazing player.

Overall, very disappointed in the defense. Was hoping these days were behind them where they start off the game like they don't even want to be out there. That will get us in big trouble against good defenses with Cassel as our QB. Offense looked good again, but like I said we need to get our WRs going.

Next week is a big test. Seattle has a very good defense, Cassel and the starting O will play into the 3rd and Bowe will be back. It's at home...The defense needs to respond after the atrocious start tonight.
