Manders v Chiefs

They were showing that they have better players than us.


And better coaching.

I would disagree on Wentz cause he took possible points off the board with a stupid sack. However I don't think he played bad. Taylor played better imo.

It's going to be a long year in coverage. These guys are not going to hold up w/out a pass rush. Curl may be a good hitter and solid tackler but he and McCain are going to get exposed in coverage.

Unless CY and Sweat all of the sudden become TJ Watt like, our defense will struggle vs the pass yet again. Jags and Lions maybe not as much but even those 2 teams have weapons that can get open on us

Not even in the same league. Andy Reid could score 40 on JDR every week

3 winning records out of 11 seasons definitely isn’t good. Alot goes into that. Unfortunate injuries, taking over dumpster fires, etc. However it is year three now and our schedule is weak. There have definitely been questionable personnel moves this off-season which I believe Ron has a big say in. If we win 7-8 games again the only way he keeps his job is if there are catastrophic injuries. Personally I do not think he is a good HC but he will not get fired if there are major injuries.

Neither do I. Jay Gruden was 13-19 in his first two season and RR who was is viewed as a superior coach is 14-19. I don't think this is what the fans or ownership expected. This team doesn't seem to be getting better and IMO that's on coaching. I can see Ron getting fired if this is another losing season but I'm hard pressed to see who they can bring in that would do any better.

Im holding out hope that we go aggressive and blitz on 3rd .. just dont want to show it in PS

That's the best we can hope for - but when have you ever seen JDR turn it up a notch with the pressure when the regular season starts?

He acts like we can sustain pressure rushing 4 every down - our d-line is paper tigers at best right now. He's gotta be on the hot seat if we can't get off the field on 3rd down this year.

Last year this defense blitzed 31% of the time, when the opposing QB dropped back to pass. That was good for 7th most in the league.

Happy to admit when I'm wrong. And I'm wrong on that one.

His defense still ain't shit though, and hasn't lived up to the hype since he got here.

Chief, it's hard to defend a guy when his unit has made 1 third down stop against starting offenses in two preseason games, but somehow you found a way to do it.

I'm definitely not defending him. I was more so pointing out that - blitz or no blitz - they haven't been effective.

But I don't put a lot of stock in the preseason, or get too caught up with the results. I just think it's so different, schemes, players, game planning, 'experimenting'. It isn't comforting though, that we are seeing the same things that were wrong with this defense last year.

In my opinion, if the defense is crap again coming out of the gate (especially the 3rd down defense) I want to see a change by week 5.

It's actually more depressing. No matter what JDR does, it doesn't work.

So either most of our players suck or JDR isn't getting it done. I definitely believe it's the latter.
