Make no mistake, we dominated a good team today

[CATCH17]

Apart from a fluke end of half play, we won 28-10 and outgained them 375 to 250. Our defense has three sacks, a turnover and KC punted 5 times.

This was not a close game

I had them as the best team in football.

Chiefs have lost 3 of 4. They are kind of meh.....

I don't think you can discount it like that. We are usually a team a decent team rebounds on. Beside that absolutely stupid pre-half cluster... we gave them a country whoopin'. It wasn't close. I think it was a very positive win. We got one back finally. If we can steal a win vs Atlanta on the road, we will definitely control our own destiny. Could be worse....the Rams game will haunt us all year.

Chiefs aren't horrible. They were obviously doing something right in the beginning of the year, but they are on a bit of a downward trajectory as of late and A. Smith is back to bus driver mode. Whatever though, we look to be on the way up regardless.

Bottom line......it appears we are peeking at the right time

 

[Redball Express]

Some people don’t want to admit but the coaching staff did an amazing job.

This is a great offense we all but shut down and did what we wanted on offense as well.

I think we have to give Marinelli his due.

His defense has played 3 very solid games in our last 3 wins.

As good as the offense is..

the defense has held up their end.

Turnovers, pass rush..run defense.

Keep it up.

I think Sean Lee just makes that big of a difference.

Let’s jusf write Denver off as an anomaly. Besides that game...the defense has been very good with Lee in the lineup and very bad without him.

 

[Clove]

Having Smith at MLB may have cost us a tie with Philly.

Lee reminds me of Chuck Howley.

Howley was the same type player.

he was always around the ball causing turnovers and making plays

and being the leader of the defense.

There was a time Howley compared to the great Dick Butkus.

Lee..please stay healthy.

That's scary considering Lee's injury history.

 

[robjay04]

That's scary considering Lee's injury history.

I think we are 7-1 if he didn’t miss anytime.

Two close losses that our defense was a play or two away could’ve made the difference.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

I thought Lawrence had his best game of the season despite not getting a sack. He had a lot of pressures and plays behind the line of scrimmage. And Lee seemed to be on everything beyond the line of scrimmage. The only real weakness on our team is the secondary and Zeke's uncertainty. We might be fine at CB but we need to move Jones and find two starting safeties.

I agree, but I am not encouraged by that given that we will be one play away from sucking again on D the rest of the year.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

I'd rather have a Claiborne out there than brown, especially when we start facing teams with tough passing games.

I'd rather go with Lewis/Awuzie/Woods in the long run, but imagine how much better our defense would be with last year's secondary, a healthy Lee and our current D-line. We might be top 5 and destroying the league right now.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Yep, we were a tad off in the first half. We were on in the second. Only a few negatives today - still think we need to put together a 4 quarter game, but we are getting there.

We are doing A LOT better than I expected. Glad to be wrong.

If you are gonna go into a rut during the season. Have it be early and finish strong

Dismissed plays are important. We won. The Chiefs are a tough team. I want Philly. I want to crush them and make them forget playing football.
