DefensiveMan 758 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 The Jaguars were doing this and Sutton kept on keeping on. You can be certain that Kubiak will be looking for Demeryus Thomas against our midget Nelson on critical downs. Sutton always adjusts pretty well in the second half of games.

liquidfriend 1,151 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Sutton always adjusts pretty well in the second half of games. Sutton doesn't adjust on the fly. With him, you have to hope his adjustments are good at the half. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I don't get the dislike of Sutton. The D has carried us. The DBs are below average at best. The pass rush is among the worst in the league. Yet his defense has really kept really good offenses from scoring. They have been a turnover machine. The dude is a rock star.

I was happier with Sutton in 2014. Then in 2015 his unit collapsed in a couple key games. His defenses are Jekyll and Hyde at times, vacillating between immovable object and bend-then-break.

Houston's availability..one player can make that much difference. Gunther was a God with DT and Neil Smith. Smith leaves DT struggled but was still a force.. DT dies . all goes to hell. I think Sutton has done pretty good without a super star rushing the passer these last couple of years. I'm willing to give him a passing grade.

West 6,714 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Agree with Diehard, OT and others..... Sutton usually drives me crazy in the first half of games, but he makes adjustments. Dorsey has to get HUGE props for bringing in so many quality players... w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs aren't that loaded with talent on defense. Houston, Bailey, Mauga, March out. Hali slower and DJ not the force he was a couple of years ago. Inexperience in the defensive backfield with only Peters and Berry above average. Sutton has done okay with what he has. I hate some of his schemes, especially the "prevent" defense late in games, but one can't argue with the results in most games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,714 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Our "prevent offense" is more worrisome than our prevent defense... w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsy 1,137 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I can't post quotes, but liquid's comment about Sutton and Peters is DEAD ON!!! (IMO) Atlanta wouldn't be such a problem if Reid/Sutton did what other teams do, and shadow Julio Jones. Atlanta will move Jones around and spot him up on Steven Nelson on 3rd downs and redzone plays, IMO, that's the reason we may struggle/lose to the Falcons.

jetlord 10,209 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Not sure if this applies, but is it possible that Peters is more comfortable playing left CB and doesn't want to switch around? Don't know if that affects his technique, but it could be a reason for leaving him on the same side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB did the same thing, took Jones completely out of the game and they still lost. Mohamed Sanu is very underrated. Our offense will need to win us that game. Carolina is trying to do what the Chiefs did last year. They're on the right track. They've won 2 straight since starting 1-5. Chiefs have a chance to shut em up and put their foot down, claiming only they may win every game after starting 1-5. Carolina have the home advantage when playing the Chiefs next Sunday. Alex Smith was allowed the week off to rest and recover. It's time to show the nation who we are and beat the Panthers at Carolina and bully them in doing so. I don't expect a blowout, but I do expect a hard fought win. Their 2015 season is on the line next week. Carolina is very, very beatable. Newton has been crying about getting hit and LA smacked him last game but came short. I expect the Chiefs do the same except win. Every game is a MUST win IMO. One lose will cost them a home game in the playoffs. Can't have that happen the way New England is playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefmanzada 466 Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Sutton needs to work with what he's got in the secondary. He messed up bad in the Steeler game. I don't want to see any 1v1 on Jones. I'd like to see Berry shadow Jones in every play and don't allow deep passes for 20+ yards. Keep the passing game short distance and rely on pressure from Ford and Hali Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
