jetlord 10,209 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Looking ahead, it would seem the Chiefs have a good opportunity to fatten their record before the first Donk game. The next five weeks look a lot less scary with the Panthers in the dumps and the other four games should have the Chiefs as favorites. 7-3 or better is a real possibility. Gotta do one at a time, but the near future looks good unless injuries derail them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhataLerror 370 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Next week is a big week: If Kansas City beats the Saints -and- Pittsburgh beats New England The Chiefs would be a half-game out of first place in the conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calichief 3,016 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 New Orleans is going to throw a lot. Hope Gaines can put tape on all his paper cuts. Made out of a brown bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetlord 10,209 Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 Offense can do some good. The defense that we all thought would be the strength is sadly lacking in a pass rush and second CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,714 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 The bye week helped.... Justin Houston's return is essential for a deep run this year. Chiefs continue to improve..... w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eraser 722 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 The Chiefs could be without the services of Gaines and Peters. Peters left the game today on concussion protocol rules. White got burned, but responded with a key play on defense, later. The Chiefs have to overcome injuries. If they can, they may be in good position. If not, it will be an also ran year again. The key to the NFL is how teams overcome adversity. That is why New England repeats, and Cleveland repeats in another way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azchief21 5,278 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 JC, Ware, Maclin, Hill, Kelce, Conley, DAT this team is loaded with speed and talent. If the O line can gel, this offense should be top 5. If the defense gets any type of pass rush it should help the DBs. White is terrible at locating the ball. Gaines is useless in the training room. I'm pretty concerned about CB2. D line will be fine, ILBs are fine. Safeties seem to be up and down. Interested to see how they bring Houston along.

oldtimer 8,686 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 it was good to see the Charles ,Ware,West, DAT, Hill, Kelce, Maclin bunch all get meaningful touches and contribute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wet field is hard on guys with leg injuries. I think that is why Charles also was a little limited. Easy to tweak an injury in that situation. Hope he is good to go!

West 6,714 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Chiefs ran hard on the 27th ranked run defense.....They have yet to prove that they can run the ball against Denver or New England. Still much to prove. w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 Charles was limited because Spencer Ware is a freakin stud. Exactly what I was thinking. The Chiefs no longer have to rely on JC to win. Nothing good about him being hurt last season except that the Chiefs found a way to play and win without him.

azchief21 5,278 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Ware has been a beast and has played extremely hard even when the rest of the offense was tanking it. He deserves considerable playing time. The 1-2 punch of him and JC should be impressive. I would like to take a few deep shots down the field to Hill. Like on a 2nd & short. Spread this thing out. Could you imagine how much more effective this offense could be if they feared that Hill or DAT could blow the top off of the defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCSLC2008 606 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Yes. If only there was pass protection. Some people say that Smith makes the pass protection look worse than it is in some aspects and his legs made it look better in some other aspects. But if you know what you have and Smith and Smith is the quarterback and you want Hill to get the ball deeper, yes, the protection must be better. Then, you add on the fact that our team has had injuries to a line that just improved but hasn't been set long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azchief21 5,278 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Yes. If only there was pass protection. The one time Smith tried a deep ball to Hill, he literally took the shotgun snap and threw it. He has to with his arm strength. Pass protection won't be a problem. If he took the time to drop back, he'd never reach Hill. There's not a CB in the league that can run with Hill. Teams will have to bring a safety over the top to help out which means he's not creeping up to the line in the run game. Now do the same with DAT on the opposite side. Just take a couple of shots. Make the defense think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
