That's how much the D gave up today...

If my math is wrong, correct me.

I think they're gonna have to do alot to rebound from that. Forget the fact it's the skins.

They got burnt every which way coming. We're just lucky our O did it's part for a change.
 
Henry was hurting and it showed.. I think if he's 100% then he would have played a lot tighter coverage. But your right that's a lot of yards. I expect our D to play a lot better next week. BTW Ware missed the sack on Green when they should have thrown the flag for grounding, that said I thought that play was one of the biggest in the game.
 
WE played the top 5 offense in the NFL, we are a young defense, you can only do well for so long.
 
While the win was huge, lets not forget the weaknesses that are being exposed week after week....Shanle, Keith Davis both belong back on special teams.....Roy (who I love) beter step it up and make those tackles again....and the O-line.....at times they stepped up....but we definitely need a major upgrade, almost an overhaul.....

The real guy I am concerned with with is someone I mentioned a few weeks back....Julius Jones, whats the deal..or should I say is he the real deal?????

I will give him the fact that he isnt 100%, but in looking at other backs, Barber, LJ over the last few weeks, he just isnt explosive or elusive...regardless of the O line.....maybe a RB is becoming a need???
 
But the O........145 Rushing Passing 316 total 461 yds
 
their defense is better than in the past, but its still the reason they aren't the team that's 13-0.
 
KC has done well the past few games with there offense. They averaged 425 yards the past 3 games and match that with how the defense played today Im surprised they didnt get more
 
KC's offense isn't easy to stop. Especially since Johnson has taken over at RB. The guy can't be stopped for a loss with that OLine.
 
That's a very good offense we played today. Trent Green was making our secondary look silly there for awhile.
 
Parcells said "we will run with them" and thats what he did.
 
Can we let the O play that way more often please? I like it when we score points. And I think that we can do it consistantly. We just have to let them do it without all the ultra conservative game planning and play calling. PLEASE Bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
GIVE ME SOME JUSTIN BERIAULT PLEASE!!!!, Davis isn't getting it done. However that only accounts for 100/500 yards so......GIVE ME SOME MORE BURNETT
(inside LB), shanle is not playing very well either in my opinion.

This time I don't think I completely agree with you. KC has a damn good offense and to think we could shut them, or even slow them down, was a bit of a stretch. We have confidence we can win again. Now we start rolling again.
 
The balance has really helped. In this situation the offense won the game;other wins have come at the hands of the defense so the balance is there.

This is typical KC play-all O, and no D.

No different from their playoff game with Indy 2 years ago. Indy had a D in the top 10, but nonetheless, it was still a shoot-out.

They're not gonna go far in the playoffs, if they make it.
 
Just to be clear, I wasn't knocking the D so much as noting the fact they haven't played a game like that all season. Where they couldn't do anything right on D. Running into each other. Being picked apart no matter what they did. They haven't had to deal with an O like that all season long.

It's going to be important that they respond next week.
