For the stats gurus...
Professional Football Researchers Association- Pro Football History (http://www.footballresearch.com/articles/frpage.cfm?topic=great-off)
good article on how to determine the effectiveness of an offense and the way turnovers effect pts/game
It claims a turnover is worth 4 pts. on average. (2 lost for your team, 2 for thier team).
That means a ton from the defensive point of view. If we can be effective at forcing turnovers it will not only help the D, but also help an offense that looks to be better than last year anyway. I'm so excited for the season. This summer is gonna drag.

You guys are correct. The Defense is the Key. It doesn't matter if we can keep up or score quickly if we fumble the ball (ie Betts) or throw interseptions. I will say that I belive we have a better Defensive coach then KC had and I belive the Defense is a better group then KC had, but if we score to quickly then that puts our D back on the field and they have not rested which means other teams just have to grind it out on us and hope that in the 4th quarter they can catch up. I'm all for the quick score it's exciting but I hope we have plans to simply go 10-15 yrds occassionally to rest our D.

Gibbs was a slow methodical Offensive grind it out coach. Saunder's is a fast score get way ahead and hope they can't catch up coach. I would like to see them combine thoughts and score fast early and then grind it out to wear down other teams late.

I agree, but I think that sometimes Gibbs has a tendancy to try and grind it out too early. We need at least a 21 point lead before the grinding should begin. Otherwise the other team is going to have too much time to catch up and bite us in the ass.
