K.C. Chiefs: Odds and Ends

Not All Corners Can Tackle

Do you guys remember CB Dale Carter? If you do, you’re old enough to recall what living in the 1990s was like AND being a K.C. Chiefs fan simultaneously. Well, if you remember Dale Carter… AND… have ever complained about Marcus Peters penchant for not tackling, my question for you is, why?

Gaining a Sense of Perspective

Could it be that many of us have lost perspective and that our expectations are so high that the possibility that the Chiefs have a losing season means were ready to dump the head coach who brought us not only a winning season each year but playoffs on a regular basis… or was it… Alex Smith?

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING RANT HAS 15 F-BOMBS AND TWO OTHER REASONS FOR MY MOTHER TO WASH HIS MOUTH OUT… but, I find this rather amusing: one fan’s response following the Chiefs disappointing one-point loss to the Titans in January. It’s probably funny because a lot has happened since then and it’s a bit like going back and watching your high school prom video. Well, maybe not. I know, I know… we don’t allow cussing here on AO… but technically, it’s not being done here on OUR site so… don’t watch it if you must embrace your need for PG-13.

It’s time for… Did You Know That?

1) the Cleveland Brown have 6 of the first 65 picks in the 2018 NFL draft? Picks: 1, 4, 33, 34, 64, & 65.

2) from 1994 to 2013 — a 20 year span — 23 out of 29 of the teams with the most draft picks, made the playoffs in the following 3 years. Looks like Dorsey has it, made in the shade.

3) in 2017, Patrick Mahomes was ranked #23 on the DrafTek’s Big Board and Mike Mayock had him at #32?

4) in the 2004 draft — also considered a QB’s Draft — Eli Manning, Philip Rivers and Ben Roethlisberger were all taken in the first 11 picks? Do you expect that one more could go in that span in 2018? I do.

The Chiefs Are in “Shut Them Up” Mode

Chuck Noll once said, “The critics are always right. The only way you shut them up is by winning.”

A Tackle is a Tackle… A Punt is a Punt… a Pass is a Pass… but we still can’t agree on what a “catch” is?

I’m confused. Did the league make a new ruling on what a catch is? Oh, it’s open to interpretation? I see. Wow, that clears things right up!

If That’s Soothing to Your Soul…

Consider the New 15-Yard Pass Interference Ruling

If RB Mark Walton is available to the Chiefs at #78 or #86…

Admittedly, I haven’t seen his tape, but there aren’t many guys who look this good at the Underwear Olympics who are also ranked as low at #97 by CBS Sports:

I Spit Upon Your Shadow, Bill Belichick!
