Chiefs How did Niemann and Sorensen look today? - Page 2

Niemann has been talked up around here, so I was curious if he lived up to the hype.

Did the backend of the defense look any better with him back?

I had to miss quite a bit of the game, but I am curious as to what everyone thought.

Can't think of anything meaningful either of them did in either direction. Which, on this defense, might mean they are a nice upgrade.

I thought after the replay review it looked like the AZ player had tipped it right before Neiman had it. All in all it didn't matter as it didn't hurt us any. But it sure would have been nice if he nabbed it for 6 which might have happened if he was able to secure possession!

I suppose I could dig up the Niemann posts, but I thought this would be less embarrassing.

I thought they played well and the D didn’t give up any big plays which is first I think.

Let’s stop being so negative.

I mean plenty of bad defensive players rack up tackles. IDP in fantasy has shed a very bright light on that fact. Both him and DOD need to add some weight.

I didn't focus on Niemann or Sorensen a ton. Sorensen was late on his coverage out of the backfield a few times but that's a pet-peeve of mine so I tend to notice that automatically. Murray also allowed Johnson to just be handed a 3rd down conversion the same way.

Oh please, you're jabbering just for the sake of it now

Hard to say, they were facing the NFL's last place offense.

As a Hawk fan, Niemann is who he is right now, and undrafted free agent, who's good on special teams and had some good plays on D, but showed his vulnerability as he is undersized for the inside. He may gain some size, but he filled in OK and that's all you can expect from a back up.

Niemann tried hard. And that's what counts.

Maybe someone should go back and quote some of your posts about Peters from earlier in the season. It wouldn't be pretty...

Agreed. But he is a ST's player at best. He is just too undersized for any LB position for now IMHO.

At one point Niemann left his lunch pail out on the field and had to sprint back out to get it.
