Actually ...
Based on what I've read here over the years, Rivers has never been wildly respected. At all. He was known as a choker, basically. I know there is a lot of media hoopla about his eventual ride to the HOF, but, by the same token, a lot of people think he's not necessarily a lock and that the bus might be full already. So that's that part. The pundits pick him and the Bolts to go to the SB every, single year (it seems like) and they collapse somewhere along the way without fail. Are we elevating Rivers to make our guy seem better? If so, that's entirely unnecessary. The other part is that our defense is, in fact, depleted. It got old and Dorsey did us no damn favors by allowing players to hang on too long or waiting far too long to sign good players. (Granted, some unforeseen injuries got in the way.) Apparently, Veach is building run-D first and hoping to hit on some pass rush. We're not there yet, so that's not opinion ... that's observation. The other, other part is that ... well, I forget the other, other part. But I'm certain that Mr. Eleazar probably got that part right, also. FAX |

We need to get Berry back soon bc Eric Murray is the worst starter on the defense. Dude is lost out there and is constantly getting burnt by TE’s.
In a few weeks, Jordan Lucas and Eric Berry need to start playing significant snaps. We need to get Murray off the field. He’s that much of a liability.

I don’t blame Dorsey for the Houston or Berry deals...but there were definitely signs that Berry was a huge risk signing.
Can you imagine how good this team would be if Houston and Berry were giving us the best years of their careers like the year preceding their extensions. This is a dynasty with those 2 playing like they’re in their prime and Mahomes at QB. |

I heard from a friend who knows the Chiefs training staff that if we push this thread to 1000 posts, Eric Berry will start practicing again.

It won't be super bowl caliber but could be good enough considering the front seven is vastly improved from what it was and getting Berry back and Sorensen back as the 3rd or 4th safety is solid where he belongs. They won't be awesome but should be a lot better than they are now. That's not counting what the pass rush could look like if KC gets more from Speaks or KPass as the season goes on. Then you throw in a dime backer hybrid guy like O'Daneil, and suddenly gives KC a much improved defense from last season.

There’s absolutely no reason to think with the addition of Berry that we can’t beat anybody with this offense. The whole thing about having a below average defense is it scares you about having to get in shootouts with great offenses. Well we just won two shootouts in the road against two of the best offenses in the league. What more proof do you need? Last edited by staylor26; 09-18-2018 at 10:18 PM.. |

I tell you what, Sorensen is a much better blitzer than ****ing Eric Murray. He completely whiffed on that sack of Ben

I never thought I’d miss Sorenson so much, but he alone would be a significant upgrade. Between him, Berry, and Parker we’d look much better at S going into the playoffs.

In any case, clearly the 2017 team was one player away from beating the Steelers. |
