Chiefs Time to Blow It Up

Marada · 01-06-2018, 09:15 PM

As disappointed as I am over the last 2 seasons as well as having seen all six of the home playoff loses, I will remain a Chiefs Fan. That being said, it's time to blow it up. The 1 thing all the past loses have shown us is that you have to have a complete team. We have come close with all Defense and no Offense. We have come close with all Offense and no Defense. Heck, we have come close with just great Special Teams. But the teams that advance are always balanced. This year, even early on, you could tell this was not a playoff team. Sure, we have play makers but first and fore most that battle is won by the line play. On the offensive side our live was average on pass protection and well below average on rune support. The team got production by using a complicated scheme that as teams saw they adjusted for. On the defensive side, the line was never able to put constant pressure on a QB and linebackers could not stop running games. There may be disagreement but the Chiefs Secondary was above average. They were just asked to do too much.
We have some young playmakers and some up and coming players. Time to blow this team up for a year or 2. Get Cap space back. Get young hungry players to go with our existing playmakers. Get an Offensive Line that will allow us to run at will. Get a Defensive Line that gets to a QB while smothering runs on the way to him. I watched the 1st two Super Bowls the Chiefs played in. I watched the decline of the 70's, the despair of the 80's. I was there for Martyball. I have seen every Chiefs Quarterback since Lenny. I just want to see the Chiefs in the Super Bowl one more time. I never would have thought that I would see the Royal's in 4 World Series before the Chiefs reached the Super Bowl.

The defense needs to be gutted.

And that includes $130 million bust Juston Houston.

Yep, as sad as that it, he needs to go. He’s been given plenty of time to return to form. It’s not gonna happen with us. He might if he gets a wake up call being cut, but as long as he’s getting paid by us he will be average to below average. He’s essentially been a non-factor for 2.5 years now.

I hope I’m wrong, but we very well might be saying the same thing about Berry a year from now. I’m convinced he only mega contracts a team should give out is to a franchise QB and all-pro LT.

FloridaMan88 · 01-06-2018, 09:27 PM

Not an exaggeration to say that the only players worth definitely keeping on defense are Peters, Berry, Chris Jones and Ragland.

Everyone else should be fair game to replace.

FlintHillsChiefs · 01-06-2018, 09:32 PM

Honestly, a culling is necessary. That includes Smith, Houston, Hali and Im too drunk to get the rest. The idea is we strip the team down to the roots, no extraneous pulp. The fluff needs to go.

Not disagreeing with you, but one would think when the defense looks that bad isn't not just the talent.

Maybe we can find someone who can make our defense do what the Rams did as a team this year...

Smith
Hali
Johnson
Parker
Bailey

All easy cap casualties. Add in Zombo, Sorenson, and the overpaid turds on the OL for my piece of mind,

While the opening night win was great, the Berry injury was a death knell... I knew we wouldn't overcome that. Berry covers up other peoples inadequacies and even some of Sutton's. Dude makes 3 or 4 plays a game that just make you say, "DAMN he's good." Also we shouldnt underestimate the injury to Conley... he's a solid possession receiver. Maybe could have made a few big catches in this game down the stretch after Kelce went out.
