Game 4 Chiefs vs. Broncos- What I think…

This game was AWESOME. I have to tell you being at Arrowhead for this game was just amazing and I hope to see many more like this.
WHAT I LIKED
Derrick Johnson: DJ finally had that breakout game we were all waiting for this season. Johnson had an interception, forced fumble, and made 6 tackles in the game. He was all over the field making plays. Go DJ! It’s ya Birthday!
Larry Johnson: LJ had a big game this week, and that makes two weeks in a row he got-r-done. 198 yards with a 7.1 yards per attempt average… enough said. Good Job LJ! Keep it up!
Offensive Line: Overall the Chiefs had 213 rushing yards, averaged 6.5 rushing yards per attempt and only allowed one sack. Great job guys. Also, Herb Taylor filled in and did a very nice job.
Chiefs Defense: Forcing turnovers and making big plays, even the TD catch was well defended, you just can’t do much about it when a guy makes that catch. Flowers and Carr both had very nice games and it was also refreshing to see the Chiefs actually get some pressure on the QB, rushing Cutler into some bad throws.
As always there were a couple things that I didn’t like so much.
WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE
Gave up too many passing yards: The Chiefs gave up 361 passing yards. As you can see I am kind of stretching a little in looking for things I didn’t like. Some of these yards were from toward the end of the game when the Broncos were trying to score fast, but either way that is a lot of yards to give up.
NIck Novack: While his kickoffs were pretty good this game (a heck of a lot better than before) he still missed a field goal. Just because it didn’t matter in the end for this game, doesn’t mean that it won’t the next time. On must Sunday’s this year the Chiefs will need every point they can get.
Branden Albert Injury: This really just sucks. For a guy that was never injured before it sure sucks that four games into his pro career he has already had two injuries. I’m just glad it wasn’t his ankle again.
I tried to limit my positives a bit in this post because I don’t want to get too excited yet, but that was a great win for the Chiefs, hopefully one that will build the confidence of this young team and have them coming out ready to play hard again next week.
GO CHIEFS!
