Palangi 788 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Why is Houston in coverage so much. Let him get after the QB. This frustrates me with Sutton. Please no more Zombo. He is terrible. No pass rush and soft in run support. I understand Kpass might now be ready but Zombo isn't either and never will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12go4kcinva 22 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I think Sutton is limited personnel wise...but I agree...Houston has no business trying to cover like that...Houston was double teamed all night..we really need another pass rush threat...Cousins had time all night.

DefensiveMan 758 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Defense will be fine. We gave up a big play, but other than that solid. We really missed Dee Ford today in pass rushing situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and we really miss not having Hali and/or Dadi in reserve. Hopefully they both will be ready to go when they're eligible to come off PUP.

MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Well hopefully Ford and Morse will be back next week!!!...Ford probably the more likely of the two. Gonna have to be on our toes against Watson who is riding high on confidence right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palangi 788 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Shhh!!! Listen I'm not saying the defense was bad. These are just little things I'd like to see different for us to take the next level as a defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I didn't like Davis' big catch or the first TD, but otherwise... wait, I can't just exclude those. Glad we won. Glad Dotson dropped the ball.

sith13 1,746 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 With the lack of Berry Sutton isn't as comfortable with the Safeties as he was last year. Right now the focus seems to be to stop the big play but we are giving up way too many first downs in the process and Houston plays more like a 4-3 OLB rather than a 3-4 OLB. Ford will probably come back as the pass rushing OLB which will help but probably not be as effective against the underneath plays as Zombo was today. Overall this defense still hasn't adjusted but doing just enough for the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhataLerror 370 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 If the offensive line wasn't struggling so badly, the Chiefs' offense might take a multiple-score lead. Then we could see whether this was a defense playing under pressure or a defense playing to pressure. Sutton's trying to scheme to cover for the loss of an upper-tier strong safety and a good nickle cornerback, and last night he had to play the backup's backup across from Houston. The Chiefs' defense gave up 20 points to the Redskins in a game where the offense didn't have a lead until the second half. The big play seemed to be where the Chiefs got hurt. Otherwise, they limited the Redskins to 6 plays per drive. More concerning was that they allowed 2.5 points per drive on the Redskins' first 8 drives. In the end, I think that this defense can play better, but the team found a way to win. The primary problem is not the defense, and health could solve some problems there, too.

hankstromboli 25 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I think we're hamstrung in our secondary and Sutton is trying to cover up some of the flaws by playing conservatively. Maybe I'm crazy but it seems every game, the D starts out slowly and then as the game progresses, he gets more aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I think we're hamstrung in our secondary and Sutton is trying to cover up some of the flaws by playing conservatively. Maybe I'm crazy but it seems every game, the D starts out slowly and then as the game progresses, he gets more aggressive. That is the major difference I see this year. The team is adapting and changing as the game plays out. In the past they had a game plan and seemed to never updat as the game progressed.
