Chiefs Worried: Someone tell me why we won't get murdered by Atlanta. - Page 11

Our D might well end up a good one as the season progresses. But I'm very very worried about the first game. Not just to lose, but to lose discouragingly big.

1- Our DL while solid has not shown signs of wreaking havoc in the opponents' backfield. Yes I'm told that's the style of 34 Romeo plays. But wait....

2- Without Tamba Hali Ryan will have all day to throw, especially considering point 1.

3- The thought of Roddy White, Julio Jones, and Gonzo, against our depleted secondary stresses me to almost puking.

This is gonna be one of those games when we see passes completed against our D with scary consistency. The only way we have any chance to win this is if we can manage long time consuming run heavy drives that would keep the Atlanta O on the bench for the majority of the game. Maybe that's why Daboll was emphasizing the run in the last preseason game so much.

Tell me something hopeful.

I fully expect him to throw for 400 yards and 4 tds

BTW, to Falcon fans posting here, this thread talks about this game only under the circumstances that shit on us match up wise. With Tamba Hali and our healthy secondary I truly think we beat Atlanta.

Yeah but we don't have Derrick Blaylock this year.

how exactly are we going to kill Matt Ryan like you Chiefs homers are predicting with literally ONE pass rusher. One pass rusher with just 1 season under his belt that is still young and inexperienced. You just expect him to carry the load. Nobody else on this front 7 is going to help him or provide any pass rush and you damn well know that. We aren't the Giants, we dont have 4 pass rushers that can go at any time. We have 2. 1 is out. We now have 1 and a bunch of guys that barely get any push.

To think we are going to generate any pass rush when we are a bottom team in sacks even with Tamba Hali who is like 50 percent (maybe more) of our sack output in a season is just laughable and completely unrealistic

Tamba did okay for years without anybody opposite him. Bout time for Houstons balls to drop. Perfect opportunity. Never know it could happen.

It's gonna be a group effort in making Ryan uncomfortable.

Matt Ryan isn't as deadly as some of y'all make him out to be. If you look at his stats you can see that he struggles against good defenses. Although I must say this season he has added 5 lb's of muscle and completed 75% of his passes in preseason he may revert to being an elite game manager. Everyone here in Atlanta is waiting for Ryan to take that next step where he can become that franchise QB who can deliver in the postseason. Our new Offensive Coordinator is looking to air it out more so we'll see whether Matt's past was a product of coaching or ability. Anyway's, until proven otherwise, Ryan isn't to be feared. Julio on the other hand...

How a team does or doesn't do through the air at arrowhead in the past decade sadly can't really be predicted by the opposing teams talent. Look at our gm vs buffalo then later vs green bay. Too many qbs have torn is up over the yrs for your comments to be a comfort. I like our d when healthy. Who knows right now. I fear something not that pretty but saying its a lock is a little too dramatic IMO.

chiefzilla1501 · 09-03-2012, 05:51 AM

Matt Cassel is only a good QB when the table is perfectly set. Which is why the idea that a game manager is okay breaks down. Cassel can never beat a team in a shootout. Even the best of defenses like Pittsburgh force the QB to gunsling from time to time. We saw it time and time again. People blame our defense for giving up too many TDs against Denver 2 years or MIami last year or many of our other blowouts. Nobody mentions that Cassel always starts pathetically slow and it puts the game out of reach in the 1st quarter. Our high % of blowouts... people blame Haley most, but the top guy to blame is Cassel.

I hate that this is true. But only through these kinds of blowouts will a message be sent that an average game manager isn't good enough.
