There is no good excuse to be made for the terrible misusage of some of these defenders over the years. Peters doesn't follow number one receivers. Houston is in coverage half of the time. Hali and Tanoh sitting for Zombo. Sorensen being used as an ILB.

Sutton SUCKS.

Peters and Jones are the only two consensus starters that have been drafted in Sutton's tenure. The other guys were drafted during earlier GM regimes or FA signings.

That group of guys you listed made for a good defensive run during the middle part of the last five years -it just didn't amount to anything because of reasons that I don't wanna get Bob-Dole banned for in mentioning.

First three round draft busts like KeiVarae Russel, Philip Gaines and Dee Ford have been twice the reason for KC's defensive failures compared to Sutton's inabilities to adjust a game plan.
