Discuss all things defense

When you're so bad at run defense you make it a legitimately good choice to run the ball at you consistently, that's pretty impressive(ly bad). https://t.co/hFnQIuLKqe

Said if your going to call out the effort of a team, you’d better back it up with tape. He had the tape. Players giving up on plays. The luck TD run for 20+ yards was horrible. Players standing around. Ugly, really ugly defense.

Sneed had a chance to light up Luck before he crossed the goal line legally but passed it up. Almost skipped out of Lucks way. Showed players turning down contact during the game.

This was very surprising because Andy is as good as football coach who was ever existed but when you see this effort on the film, you have to question the maturity of the team, don’t they know what’s at stake?

No YouTube yet but I’m sure it’ll be posted soon.

It's over. Lesson learned.

We got two pretty good wakeup calls the last two weeks.

One for coaching, one for effort.

They will be whipped into shape for the playoffs.

That is impressive until you realize the last two weeks = 58.

What happened?

I'm tolerant of the defense not giving 100% in this game. I'm a realist. It's a physical game. Every player has something that hurts by now. Performing at 100% and maximum effort for 17 games and hopefully another 4 games is too high of a bar to hold these players.

I hope they turn their attitude around by Sunday. I'm confident they will but, t is embarrassing as a fan to see your team called out on national TV for a lack of effort.

HC_Chief · 01-09-2022, 09:26 AM

Seemed like the coaches told the players to "not get hurt". That's how they played: minimal effort, avoid injury, just enough to win.

**dannybcaitlyn** · 01-09-2022, 09:48 AM

I’d dump Spags for Fangio in a heartbeat!

**BigRedChief** · 01-09-2022, 09:51 AM

Here's the clip. The calling out of the defensive effort starts at about the 5:20 mark

Rainbarrel · 01-09-2022, 10:00 AM

Playing Hill sparingly, Williams sidelined, Kelsssss limping. Because of turf makes sense

You're the wrong kind of fan and a traitor. I hate you with all my heart and I hate that you get to enjoy Chiefs games, . . . welcome to Chiefsplanet, the premiere site for Chief fan discussions. . . .

We're starting to see some 'mailing it in' from the boys up front again. They came out hot against Cinci but then went on cruise control. Not Ingram, he's a dawg, but Clark especially. Jones runs a little hot and cold too, just never as cold as Clark does.

Hopefully we get play-off Frank Clark and not this version moving forward.

Plus Spags sending Sorenson sprinting back to cover deep at the snap is concerning.

I have no idea why Spags continues to play Sorenson at all, especially in deep coverage. How many fails are enough to make a change?
