I can't believe there's not a thread about Gun's interviews on the front page...
Gun did back-to-back interviews on 610 and 810 today, great stuff, I think I might actually become a fan.

I think he's been reading Chiefsplanet for some time. More specifically, the ****er is stealing my research!

First he said that "all great defenses have great safeties" and talked alot about Dawkins and Lynch. Then he went on to say that he and his staff spent alot of time since the end of the season formulating an argument about how to build a defense. He said a great defense is built with first day draft picks (an argument that I made 2 or 3 years ago by going through several rosters and showing how many 1st, 2nd, and 3rd rounders New England, Baltimore, Tampa, and others had for starters). His research led to some interesting points

All of the top defenses in the league had at least 8 1st-day picks starting on defense (except Pittsburgh, they were the anomaly). We had 4 when he got here. The juicy tidbit is that we had 7 last year and he sees 9 this year (I'm guessing that means Hali and Pollard are being counted on to start right away). He also said that in the NFC there were only 4 starting CB's who were not 1st-day draft picks.

Gunther addressed that. He said Bell needed to learn the system. He almost made it sound like he played Bell out of position on purpose so that he would learn...

perhaps "company man" would of been more appropriate?


basically they will all want to talk up their draft picks ... i don't think it has much to do with Mr. Htismaqe suggestions.

Bell wasn't/isn't a bad player, he's a misused player.

If we started blocking with Gonzo and running Dunn out in Gonzo's routes I doubt we'd see the same production...

Based on his comments about Kendrell Bell, I don't believe Gunther is spouting the company line. I think he's the guy standing on the table trying to get people to listen to him.

Carl was ready to cut Bell. The only reason he's still here is because of Gunther.

Let me put it this way:

What Gunther says about these draft picks is true and genuine. He may be WRONG, but he's not insincere. The "company line" you hear about these guys from Carl or Herm or Kuharich when they gush about Hali and Pollard CAME from Gunther, not the other way around.

I listened very closely to what he said yesterday. This isn't 2000 Gunther...

Ganz genau...

Last year, Bell was dropped into coverage alot. His hunting grounds should be LOS & enemy backfield.

So Guther is saying Bell is explosive, yet Gunther misused him and put him in a scheme that did not play to his strengths? Brilliant. That gives me all kinds of confidence this year.

Believe what you want, but Bell was misused...

Who misused him? The same guy who is with the team this year running the show on D. Like I said, it inspires tons of confidence.

The only thing that gives me confidence for THIS year (it doesn't exactly make me feel good, though) is that Gunther almost sounded like last season was a sacrificial year.

He made it sound like we didn't have the horses on defense last year to get it done, and he knew it early. So he put guys like Bell in there to learn the system, rather than to do what they were good at.

I skipped my morning coffee so perhaps I a bit slower than usual this morning, but what new "horses" do the Chiefs have this year as starters? Who are the new horses who are going to make a dramatic impact and make a big difference on D?

If Gun did in fact make it sound like last year was a sacrificial year (which I doubt) then screw him for wasting DV's final year and a twilight year of guys like Green, Roaf and Shields.

If Herm is going to want to play cover 2, I don't see how Bell's role is changed any for the better.

looks like your reasoning might need adjustment
