A thought while looking at KC's offense.

At the moment (in the 4th), it's not going exactly well for the Chiefs, but I think that's more about lack of execution than anything else. But, especially for those with DVRs who care to do so, I am thinking that their offensive play calls would be perfect for us...that is if Shula is going to continue to champion Cam being a game manager. I don't know if KC's O-line is ranked better than ours, but they haven't looked all that great in this game, and Smith has eaten The Colts' defense up with his legs and those shorter ball control passes. They've sprinkled in just enough shots down the field, used those crossing routes across the middle with precision, and have thrown in a few passes to their backs.  Yeah, it could be Smith making them look effective, but I am thinking that Cam (and our offensive personnel) can do it better. I hope that Shula is taking notes.

Alex Smith seems to throw on target downfield. I don't understand the hate for his downfield throwing ability after this game. If Dwayne Bowe wasn't high as a kite he would remember it was 4th down and he needed to keep his foot in bounds.

 

A better throw and he would have been in bounds. IT was tight coverage and he had to reach back for the ball. Kinda hard to stay in bounds when you are that close to the sidelines an have to adjust to the ball with a defender on you.

Always account for Andy Reid's system when you judge a QB.

 

Reid runs a very QB friendly offense.  Every one he's ever coached has looked awful if they've gone to any other team.

 

Alex Smith didn't look awful last year, either.  So I don't think that's a good explanation for him.

lol what? What does height have to do with anything???? The ball was behind him.....

That if Dwayne Bowe was worth the money he gets, he would have the presence of mind to understand the situation and make a better attempt to get his feet closer together. He had length advantage over the DB and it showed. Alshon Jeffrey made that catch several times this year.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
