2) The fact that you start that answer with "No shit, Sherlock!" means you agree with the statement that you seem to be trying to argue against. Not really much is needed to say as a counter point since you apparently agree.
Saying that KC is not going to carry this team is neither a blasphemous statement nor is it an anti-KC statement, its simply the truth. He is the best guy we have to run Grudens system. And as you agree, that doesnt mean he is Tom Brady.
I do agree with you on this point. I confess that I did perceive your comments as a knock on KC. Sorry about that. If he has to carry us, then we're in trouble. We'll probably win many of the games when we can run the ball and play tough D. Conversely, we'll probably lose nearly all of the games when we're unable to do those things.
Nevertheless, I'm happy where we are right now in what I consider to be Year 1 of our team building and that includes being happy with the play of our current starting QB.

Cousins has a 91.1 rating after week two. He is missing - by far - his best wr, and we have played two good defenses. I think he is going to absolutely torch the Giants secondary. Yea we are a run first team, but KC is not just "along for the ride". Not so far anyway.

How about the shitty punt at the end of the half? Rams had the ball in our territory with plenty of time to at least get 3. Big defensive stand there and the Rams got nothing. Just don't even know what to say about those guys. Just outstanding team defense the last two weeks.

I like how they're calling the games. KC and the entire offense just isn't ready for a 45+ pass attempt type of game. That formula as we saw last year may put up big pass stats, but it also equals a lot of turnovers and losses. They need to keep his attempts right around 30 and give him a running game.
I think at some point we can be that offense if need be. But let all those guys grow into that, instead of forcing it like last year.

Look at the Peyton Manning teams and the Drew Brees Saints teams.. throw 45 passes and it gets ugly especially late in the season. No team should be doing that. Throw 25 passes, let the running game wear the D out and let the D beat the hell out of our opponent and we'll be fine.

Oh i agree 1000%. We arent built to be a passing team. We are built to be a running team. However once d-jax comes back i think we might be more of a dual threat offense that atleast has the ability to open it up thru the air. Not to showcase that but to use it if necessary. If our run game is clicking now wait until d-jax comes back and draws some of the heat downfield with him. I still think KC will light up the Giants. Man their pass d has been atrocious. Yes i know it was Romo n Ryan but they are not good in pass d.

Great win! Love beating the dirty douchy Rams and their pornstar coach.
We couldn't be more boring and I love it. First game in 20 years I can remember winning both lines of scrimmage.
It's early but I like the vibe of this team.
I hope we have Callahan signed to a 20 year deal.....

Good - everything that happened before and after the 1st 10 minutes of 3rd quarter.
Bad - the opposite of above
