But shit they really sold out on rebuilding the front 7. From a pure talent perspective, it shouldn't be this bad. I know Ragland struggles some, but he hadn't previously at defending the run. I think Nnadi is better than Logan was, and theres just more talent up there. But **** if it isn't worse. To me, that's just a coaching issue. They don't stress things they need to on d. |

I am probably in the minority but I would not trade any of our pass D for better run D at all.
Pass D is more important. And whoever said it is historically bad, the Chiefs run D is not even the worst in the league this year. Get a clue. |

I think Hitchens has been hurt.
Dude never played on his heels in Dallas or Iowa the way he did thru the middle of this season. Early he was flying around, then he had some injury issues and seems to now be getting back to it. That or he's just being coached badly. |

Just because it didn't work out like they had hoped.....doesn't mean they didn't try. Do you honestly think that Veach looked at Hitchens and went "Yep...this guy ****ing sucks....let's give him a ton of money!"? No. He looked at Hitchens and how he played at Dallas....and thought he would help out this defense. He looked at Ragland and thought he would be a good shot at hopefully turning his career around. Speaks is raw as **** and I didn't understand the pick....but you could see the thought process. He hopefully would help with holding up against the run and be able to improve his pass rush experience.

Part of the problems with this defense is the lack of experience, the lack of discipline and honestly the coaching staff. Sutton needs to be gone after this year just for the simple fact that he continually trotted Parker out there week after week....when EVERYONE could see how horrible he was playing.
I think this defense next year will take a step forward just because most of these guys will have another offseason together. The only head scratching move right now is KPass. I don't understand why this guy isn't getting playing time. Is he just not getting the position? Is it because he was a Dorsey pick and you don't want him outshining your pick? |

O'daniel isn't practicing so I'm assuming he won't play this weekend.
