Well, he does have a tie in to DT. Thomas was his hero. He wears 58 to honor him.

****. I hope not. KC with a franchise QB would be dangerous as hell.

Our problem will be that once we get our franchise QB the young talent right now will likely be past their prime. They'll have to continue to hit in the draft so the talent stays about the same 5 years from now. But of course, a franchise QB can make up for lack of talent in other areas.

I really love the running game.
Executing a good running game and stopping the run. |

Um, excuse me, but I believe it is referred to as THE ROC.

The offensive talent comment might seem questionable, in that there aren't (or at least aren't yet) hall of fame talent like Roaf/Shields and Gonzalez, but that team wasn't even one receiver deep, much less three, Moeaki was a poor man's Gonzalez as a rookie, and I think could do really well if he stays healthy, and the line right now, even without players on Roaf and Shields level should be very, very solid for years to come. I honestly think Trent Green with this team would throw for 5000 yards, and they'd put up comparable numbers offensively across the board, in terms of running game and scoring. Unfortunately they don't have Green. They don't even have Todd Collins. I don't expect Cassel to throw for 3500. |

Above all, I love a great, dominating defense with an elite pass rush. It all started with growing up watching the Chiefs in the early 90's. Watching DT come off the edge was a thing of beauty. I loved that feeling when it was 3rd and long, and everybody in the stadium, and everybody watching on tv knew that DT was about to get a sack. The opposing coach knew it, the offensive lineman knew it, the QB knew it, and there was nothing they could do about it. Those were the good ol' days.
I also love a perfectly executed running play. Watching the '01-05 Chiefs was something else. Seeing someone as big as Willie Roaf walk up to the line like an old man, and as soon as the play starts, unleash the fury of God on defenders was incredible. Priest Holmes was the perfect RB for that offensive line. He was a smart, patient runner who let the play develop, and then made his move at the perfect time. He could run a toss sweep just as well as execute a screen play to perfection. Damn I wish we had an offense half as capable as that one. |

I love both sides of the ball but have to say offense is more exciting.
I'd rather watch a QB throw a 40 yard bomb than see an ILB stuff a guy on 3 and short or see someone on defense get a sack. I just think a TD is much more thrilling. The only way I can compare offense and defense as equal level of excitement is when the defense scores a TD. That's very exciting because defensive touchdowns don't happen that often. But when they do, most of the time the team that scores on defense wins. Giving you more reason to believe in your team afterwards. Such a good feeling. IMO, Defense definately has more impact than offense. It can change a game instabtly. Defense can always score, create turnovers, create good field position for the offense. It definately helps out the offense more than the offense helps out the defense. |

Definitely defense. Grew up on the 90's teams. Liked playing defense more as a kid. Probably more knowledgeable on that side of the ball.
I really like the potential of our defense, but I also think there are going to be some growing pains with Poe. It's easy to get gashed with the run if guys aren't maintaining their gap responsibility. Hopefully we won't give up too many big plays while the big fella gets used to the position and the NFL. |

I gotta side with Gaz on this one and say Defense. The early 90's teams made me a Chiefs fan. Of course, during Vermiel's days I loved the offense, but I really just loved seeing our big uglies manhandle their defense and watch Priest patiently run behind that line.
