Burpo The Mad Clown 5,562 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I'm not ok with it. We should have won. But, if you lose a game, this is the least painful way to do so. Non-divisional, on the road, coming from behind in spectacular fashion, and coming that close. It could be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for kickoffs and punts Smith can replace DAT and maybe learn a position as a DB. As for punt/kick coverage, DAT can't earn his spot for only that. In six games, the Chiefs have punted 16 times. In all but six cases, the receiver called for a fair catch or the punt went out of bounds or in the end zone. That leaves one instance per game where a punt coverage guy had an influence. You might argue that the sight of DAT bearing down on the receiver forced the fair catch, but that's pretty thin. On kickoffs, nearly all are touch backs. My points is that even if DAT is a coverage wizard, it doesn't matter all that often. We haven't seen Smith on punt returns, but that job has fallen on Hill with DAT being a decoy on a few occasions. Smith could do that as well. Smith can be good, no doubt. But one of the reasons they would call for a fair catch was because of DAT bearing down on them.

Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I guess being OK with it really isn't my correct answer. It's more like I can accept it versus oh my God the sky is falling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
