Bob Sutton isn't the problem
Hearing a lot of criticism of Sutton. Here's something interesting to consider. Sutton has been here 4 years. He's had 3 stretches where he's had to play some really bad cornerbacks:
-8 games with Marcus Cooper in 2013 -3-4 games in 2015 with Sean Smith out on injury, a rookie Marcus Peters, and Jamel Fleming getting picked on -1 game this year with DJ White Other than those 12-13 games, you know how many times Sutton gave up more than 20 points? 3 times. That means for 2/3 of the games, we've had a good to phenomenal defense. For those who say he's shit the bed against great offenses. When he's had a mostly full cast, prior to this year he's done well against Pittsburgh twice, dominated NE (then did halfway decent in the playoffs against Denver), dominated San Diego almost every time, dominated Detroit, did very well against Seattle and Arizona. The only team that's had his number consistently outside of those 12-13 games is Peyton Manning. I know he's flawed. When he has puke at the #2 CB, he can't adjust. But those who want him fired are spoiled. He's been awesome most of his time in KC. Last edited by chiefzilla1501; 10-04-2016 at 04:11 PM.. Reason: Misleading thread title |

I wanted to fire him or demote him once Wade Phillips became available.

I'll never forget how he looked like a deer in the headlights during the Indy playoff collapse.

That one, but a drooling idiot could have figured out a way to keep the lead.
I personally would have told my DB's to hold every play. I could live with 5 yards and time off the clock every play. The defense did exactly what Indy needed to do happen for them to come back. |

Sutton and this defense will be better when Justin Houston returns because he is the missing piece to this defense.

It's not Suttons fault guys aren't getting to the QB. It's the franchises fault for botching Houston injury then knowing and doing nothing to improve the OLB position.

I agree. I watched DJ White in person at the preseason game against the Rams. He was lost. I can't believe he's starting or playing significantly.

But keep in mind, he's a 6th rounder that's somewhat raw. I don't understand why Acker wasn't in that package but I guess that says more about Acker than White. |

If the offense produces anything, Sutton looks much better.
