Grbac was QB, 2000. This team was an offensive juggernaut under Gunther for some reason. |
Mahomes is going to end up with over a dozen Chiefs and NFL records in his first full year! Amazing!

Can you give stats about how bad the defense is?

I would support Hill getting those 4 TDs this weekend...

Hill and Kelce passing yards? Did you mean receiving yards?
|
It's bad when Derrick Alexander and Dwayne Bowe hold franchise records.

A few stats for you at the three-quarters point of 2018.

Even more impressive was that Jimmy Raye was our OC. We had a RBBC of Mike Cloud, Tony Richardson, and Frank Moreau. Yes, TRich was a halfback. It was basically all OL, Gonzo, a bizarre career resurgence from Derrick Alexander, and Elvis chucking it off playaction whenever he had time. The cool part about that 2000 offense was how well it transitioned us to the Coryell with Vermeil. Playaction fakes aren’t normally a staple of the Coryell offense, and that’s kind of the one thing this offense did well before Vermeil got here. So it took like half of a season in 2001, but Saunders finally started implementing that concept with Green, and it worked like a ****ing charm. It really wasn’t until we went back to that bread and butter of playaction that the Saunders offense really started working well and lighting shit up. Hell, the right side of the OL was already on the team when Vermeil got here. Grunhard had just retired, and Brian Waters was I think some douche Carl had brought in as offseason fodder. For a time, I think Vermeil even considered re-signing Grbac. |
The weird thing about Derrick Alexander in 2000 was that he didn't really have any monster games. He was just remarkably steady, and had 4 games where he beat 130 yards to push his yardage count up. But there was no 200+ yard game to throw his numbers up unnaturally. If you look at his game logs, it seems surprising that he ended up with that many yards.

Travis Kelce currently has the 17th-most passing yards by a Chief in a season. He needs 309 yards to break the Chiefs' single season record, which is currently held by Derrick Alexander.
How sad is that? |

If you scroll down a bit at this link, you'll also see that Derrick only had 4 50+ yard plays in 2000, so his season wasn't the result of a few outliers:
