He couldn't even cover old ass Antonio Gates last night. Although, there was zero pressure on Rivers during that TD play.
What's everyone's thoughts on his play last night?

I think he's done. He missed an easy tackle that led to a long run too. I don't think he would have been in the game for the Gates TD if Pierre-Louis hadn't gotten hurt earlier. Pierre-Louis's role is underrated imo. We need him.

He’s old, slow, few years past his effectiveness.

I don't think he's got the effectiveness he used to by a long shot. His value is in his brains and leadership. But man, he's pretty much a liability on the field now. Is he going to cause us to lose? Meh, maybe. He's done after this season though.

I didn't watch the whole game, but it looks like they're back to playing DJ over Ragland. Makes no sense.

It would be sweet if we could send him off in the Sun Set with a Super Bowl victory but we wont because Chiefs.

He maybe showing some young bucks the ropes and mentoring them but his tank is empty and doesn’t have any flyers.

I'll never forget his tackle at TC i went too of one of those giant foam donuts. It was text book tackle like he did against that WR Raitart last week.

He had a hard time containing backside help on those underneath routes. Was getting burnt pretty bad there. Really got his ass burnt on the Gates TD.
One of my alltime favorite Chiefs. Will never forget the day he was drafted, the day the Detroit Lions took another 1st rd WR and I knew DJ would fall to KC if CAR didn't stand in the way, and they took Thomas Davis me and my buddies jumped out of our chairs cheering b/c we both loved the dude in college, he was a badass. But father time catches up w/ even the best ones. He's clearly lost a step....big time.

Yeah. When you’re slower than Gates it is time.
He still made a couple nice stops in the short pass game and run game but his speed which was elite for a LONG time is gone. |

He's still solid vs. the run and EXCELLENT at reading the play. He can still spot the gap and explode straight line to make a tackle for a loss...

With today's fad of RPO, any time the other team sees DJ on the field there's a pretty good chance that DJ will be forced into coverage especially if the other team has a quality TE. That said he's still been a warrior for the Chiefs for a long time and deserves all the respect given him.
