Mloe68 1,521 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Found this in Arrowhead Pride written in the middle of training camp. Fits my belief this guy is legit and ascending. Let's hope he can get back up to speed over the next month and really help at crunch time of this season. If he can, this would be a massive upgrade in the slot but also a tackled to help in run defense and a guy that won't give up 200 yards to anyone on the outside. Losing Berry stung big time. This looks like it was a dagger too. 3. This team needs Steve Nelson to be healthy. I can’t stress how much I’m beginning to think the key to this Chiefs team having one of the best defenses in the league is Steve Nelson. Think about it. Here’s your (healthy) base 3-4 defense: DL: Allen Bailey, Bennie Logan, Chris Jones ROLB: Dee Ford LILB: Derrick Johnson RILB: Ramik Wilson LOLB: Justin Houston LCB: Marcus Peters SS: Eric Berry FS: Ron Parker RCB: Steve Nelson As has been well documented, Nelson’s best coverage comes in the slot, but after watching a week of camp, I believe he’s the Chiefs’ most formidable option at right cornerback.

Mitchels Style may be better in slot coverage? Nelson at corner Mitchell at slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 How did yall feel he got on yesterday? I thought he done very well tbh and a clear upgrade on Gaines. IF we had Nelson against Pitt, then I think the result may have been different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF we had Nelson against Pitt, then I think the result may have been different. He was an obvious upgrade in the slot.. Hopefully as he gets back we will give him the base d reps as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I was happy. I was prepared to give him a pass because of first game back, but he did a good job. We have 3 CBS now. That is a big help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
