They need a new QB he can't get 2 yards on a read option. He a little better than Cousins.

He lost because SF has a better overall team from top to bottom.

Re: Around the NFL...Wildcard Weekend Style
 

[quote=NC_Skins;1053392]Ummm...no.


Did Charles or any of those offensive players give up 35 points in 24 minutes? Do tell. That game was entirely lost by that defense. No idea what their defensive coordinator was thinking. He had one guy to cover the whole game and allowed him to continue to burn them. Didn't really blitz much either. That guy should walk back to KC.[/quote]

So let's say Knile Davis and Donnie Avery stayed in the game...don't you think Kansas City's offense could have mustered more than two FGs in the 2nd half? And perhaps they could have kept the Colts' offense off the field by keeping the ball in their possession longer? And what if Brandon Flowers stayed healthy? Don't you think that maybe he could have limited T.Y. Hilton to less than 13-224-2? I like to think so.

To say the game is all on KC's defense is incorrect. The defense played very well in the 1st half. But when their top cornerback went down and their offense could no longer stay on the field and score points, they got dominated.

I would've given Kaep a slight edge yesterday simply because he killed GB's defense with the 100 yards rushing. However, Rogers is a better QB hands down and he also has been out a good portion of the season.

Their offense didn't even need to step on the field the second half and that defense STILL should have kept them from scoring 35 points in 24 minutes. They went conservative and stopped blitzing. They got no rush on Luck and he simply ate them up.

The loss of Flowers killed them. They couldn't stop Indy after he went out.

I'm just saying that it's tough to play defense when your offense can't back you up by scoring points and taking time off the clock. Giving up 35 points in 24 minutes is unacceptable, as you've pointed out. But I don't think that can be pinned completely on the defense. The Chiefs 7 second half drives ended in: TD(18 yard drive), Fumble, Punt, FG, Punt, FG, and Turnover on Downs. And Reid only called 8 running plays to a RB in the second half.

Although, when it's all said and done, if Alex Smith had hit an open Cyrus Gray in the 4th when the Chiefs were up 41-31, the game probably would have been over right there.

Along with a inordinate amount of luck (no pun) with how that ball bounced on the goal line fumble by Brown. Never let anybody tell you that you don't need luck on your side to win it all....lol

It's a blog .

... and the earth is round. Thank you Captain Obvious. ;)

Regardless, the fact that it is a blog does not change the validity of the critique contained within it. As the blog post highlights, Jenkins article was sloppy and, at best, poorly sourced. Given its lack of sources and misuse of previous player quotes, Jenkins article is simply lazy, biased reporting and the blog post fairly critiques the Jenkins' article for being just that. Further, it does so with better citation of source quotes then the Jenkins article. Simply put, the blog post is far better writing than Jenkins' article.

Things are even because Sally Jenkins is not a real news source either.

The Giants are interviewing the Texans' fired QB coach for the vacant OC spot. Go for it...he did wonders with Schaub.


Also, the Dolphins are trying to pick between Kyle Shanahan, Gary Kubiak or Ben McAdoo for OC.

Actually Rogers played one hell of a game at QB. But, this is the new NFL and they lost.
