Monday Morning Thoughts…
Happy Monday everyone…
This game went much different that I expected but still ended with the Chiefs losing to the Jets 28-24. I feel more encouraged than last week, but a loss is still a loss.
Gettin’ Thiggy with it, nah-nah nah nah nah-nah nah! Tyler Thigpen played a great game yesterday. He went 25 of 36 for 280 yards, 2 TD’s and ZERO interceptions. He gave the Chiefs a chance to win and that is all you can really ask for.
Chiefs QB Situation: Count me as one of those people that think the Chiefs still have QB issues. I will jump on the Thiggy bandwagon once he starts playing consistently, and by consistently I don’t mean he has to play every game like the Jets game but he should give the Chiefs a chance to win and not cost them the game, like he did in Atlanta.
At this point I am still saying bring in Culpepper for a workout. If he passes the physical and will come to the Chiefs with the understanding that he can COMPETE for the starting QB job then sign him up. He is still most likely an upgrade over any QB we currently have on the roster
One of the things that really affected the game more than people think is the injury to Jamaal Charles. He had 5 rushes for 45 and looked good while doing it. He was a spark in the offense and it seemed to me that once he went out the running game went in the crapper.
BIG PROBLEM FOR THE CHIEFS: Giving up the big play. The Chiefs have a bad habit of allowing 50-60+ yard TD runs and they need to fix this immediately. Also, don’t forget the Chiefs Defense still gave up 420 yards, that’s a lot of yards and for a defense that has been building for 3 years it should be better than this by now. Last week I was calling for Gunther’s head and I still think it should be considered.
Now some news about this site:
Last week we got back on track and released a new episode of Brick Hits. In Brick Hits: Episode 11 - Podcast Brick and I talked about the Chiefs loss to the Titans, previewed the Chiefs vs Jets game, and named a “Tool of the week”. Check it out to find out who last week’s tool was.
Yesterday right after the game we decided that we wanted to talk about it a little bit, so Brick and I sat down for a short post-game show, find out what we thought about the Chiefs/Jets game here:Brick Hits Special Edition- Chiefs vs Jets Post Game.
Guess who is back? Janson wrote another article for KC Chiefs Football Blog and it was great. Don’t forget to check it out here:The Final Whistle - Post Game Thoughts: Chiefs vs. Jets
Well, that is all for this Monday morning. I hope you all have a great week and that we can see a Chiefs victory next Sunday.
Go Chiefs!
