I thought chiefs might get Ramsey and actually do good on defense with it being home opener and crowd noise.
I picked up the Chiefs defense and started them in fantasy football. Huge mistake. They got 2 points. Lol |

Was anyone else as pissed as I was watching Sorenson sit in the end zone and allow Lamar Jackson to waltz in for the TD?
Tackling today gets an F grade, for sure. Just no aggression or fundamentals whatsoever. |

Reminded me a lot of the 2017 game against the Texans where we were in control the whole game and Watson was getting all kinds of lucky bullshit on deep throws. |

The tackling was crap, I agree, but the lack of aggression was entirely due to them wanting to prevent Jackson making a big play behind them. It is sometimes painful to watch, but it worked.

Well, the "Lucky Balls" were completed because our defense is just dumb. On that throwback across the field, our DB (can't remember who) was settling under it like a fly ball (cuz it was) and still allows the catch. It was lucky for Jackson that our DB's are stupid. The one on the goal line...fine, looked like OPI but it never should have been completed.
I saw a LOT of piss poor tackling, a lot of guys assuming the tackle was made only to have Ingram go for a few more yards. Look, I still think the D was better most of the time, but when they were bad, they were lose the game bad. We still roll with our offense and hope the defense won't shit the bed.

Better than last year. Secondary is better. Dline still sucks.
Of course, this is the kind of smashmouth goon squad that we don't really match up with very well. So I'll take it. Glad we're playing the Lions next week and not the Chargers. |

We still have too many "Ron Parkers" on the defense.
Guys who avoid tackling if they can. Standing around the pile, pulling up like they are trying to avoid a penalty when they are really avoiding the hit. We are better than last year though. |

Ravens have a very good o-line. They get paid to play as well. This new defense, barring injury, is going to improve as the season goes on. And the Chiefs won't have to overcompensate for a top running QB every game either.

Dirty Dan also should’ve had Ingram stopped on a big first down run, but went in with a cheap shoulder thinking everyone else had him stopped

Clark and Honeybadger were supposed to change the culture of the defense.....they didn't! This is defense is garbage and were exposed today.
Teams will now run all day and with a better passing QB to seal the deal against our Chiefs. Xavier Williams is a huge liability out there. Has to be someone on the street right now who can play better then him! |

They did a really good job of corralling Jackson, no doubt, but I'm specifically talking about tackling the backs. Guys were just putting in piss poor effort, no one was flying to the ball carrier. It's like no one wanted to be the guy to make the tackle. I've seen that in Sutton's defenses for the last couple seasons. It looked a lot like last year. |
