I don't mind some of the positive spin, but to still be defending some of the choices is crap... it's not even about hindsight... some of choices were just dumb to begin with, and it would be much more logical for him to take responsibility for being 3-8 instead of the same old "If only this, this, this, and this had happened, we'd be a playoff-bound team". Now that I think about it, it's similar to what the Rams have done over the past few years.... after every loss, didn't matter who... Warner, Faulk, Bruce.... they would all talk about how they "beat themselves". They lost the SB, and there wasn't a word mentioned about how the Patriots beat them. It was all about how they beat themselves.

I don't know what you are all bitching about. Our defense is close to getting better. There are 53 guys on the team and we only need about 8 new defenders. Thats close isn't it?

Its been awhile since I've been onthe board--however, I just want to say I still love my boys and I still watch every game--every snap. I still travel 30 minute one way just to watch the game. I Love the boys in red and gold.
Hope all is well with everyone and GO Chiefs! ( And Get a f'n defense while you're at it!) Peace, Carlota! |

There are some things that can be fixed, and Vermeil has said since training camp that he didn't work the guys hard enough... he even alluded to it in his press conference today. Sometimes I think he's just thinking out loud when he says stuff like "if only we could've done this", because it's true, and it's his responsibility, and it didn't get done so it eats at him. |

There's nothing he can do this season except finish out the season. I was one that believed that bringing in GC was a good idea and I thought our D would improve a lot by changing the "scheme". I was wrong and so was DV and many people on the Planet. I do believe there will be some big changes in personnel. But we've got to wait for the season to end. I don't believe DV is such an idiot that he can't see it. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he'll make some big changes.

Our defense isn't what it needs to be, but we aren't losing games by 2 TDs on a regular basis. The idea that we need 8 new starters (as someone said earlier in the thread, perhaps TIC) is ludicrous. The difference between a playoff team and a team like this year's Chiefs (who are better than their record IMO) is pretty small.

The way you phrased this post it makes it sound like last years team didn't have flaws. It had major ones that were exposed this year. This team could use 8 new starters realistically. Will it happen? No, but that's what they need. We've completely changed philosophies. We've gone from read and react to just react and neither have worked. It's the talent and until it's overhauled we are never going to get where we need to be.
