people forget what Dee Ford's run D was like. Clark does a good job setting the edge. Defense is overall better because of him. Sacks may come but the scheme seems to be generally working and if he's staying in the scheme, then what's the problem?

The problem is that he's being paid 100M and the chiefs gave up a 1st and 2nd round pick for him. If the chiefs just wanted someone who could "set the edge" and play within the scheme, they could have gotten that for much cheaper and have had tens of millions to spend elsewhere.

At this point Veach should just go ahead and plant a heaping helping of booger sugar in his car so we can void that guaranteed money.

I don't give a shit about his run defense. That's to be expected of him with what he's being paid.
Go sack the QB. Alot. I dunno what the deal is with pass rushers these days, but they don't seem to be what they were even 5 years ago in terms of production. Khalil Mack had a down year for him. Is it just easier to neutralize outside guys? |

Do we not have a group of the usual nitwits in the gdt posting "this defense is trash," every single week? We even had a thread earlier this season about CP's dissatisfaction with Thornhill. And yes, we even had a thread bitching about CEH. these are all facts. And unless you've been living under a virtual rock here on CP, you know that's all true. And the Butker thread is just stupid. The Team is 23/24 or whatever, not one game has been decided by an XP in the Mahomes era, and in spite of missing 6 XPs or whatever, he's posted his best percentage on FGs of his career. In spite of the fact that he's working with a new holder, after having the same guy for 3 years. Like I said, some people have to bitch. |

It was just a lucky coincidence that Clark spent almost the whole game lined up over the LT? Including the last 11 in a row? Okay. Makes sense. |

Rothlisberger was averaging 2.2 seconds this season. Baker about the same, but he threw a lot of passes in under 2 seconds vs. PIT. And the best sack-rate DL couldn't get a single sack, and just a few pressures. I'm not sure they recorded a hit. Now part of that you could say had to do with the fact that CLE finished the season with the best OL, if you believe ESPN, FOXSports, PFF, etc. And their back-ups might be the best in football, since they replaced their LT and one of their Gs (one of them twice ) in that game, and PIT still couldn't get to Baker. Whatever. Point is, that yeah there's a trend of QBs throwing quicker. A lot of OCs have built their schemes on the idea. Not all teams yet, maybe not even a majority, but look at GB, for example. LaFleur has built a running game, and a quick pass offense. TB is finally trending that way. Bottom line, no DL is getting to the QB in 2.5 seconds. Anyone that was paying attention knew we weren't going to get a bunch of sacks vs. CLE. As I posted in the "LTACLE" thread, We'd be lucky to get a couple sacks (and that Sneed would probably get it, so I'm psychic I guess), but the important thing would be to make Baker uncomfortable, by taking away his roll out to the left, since that was basically his best 'punch,' don't let him escape into the flat behind an undisciplined rush, defend the HB screens better than PIT did. Not rocket science. If the best DL in football couldn't record a sack vs. CLE, and they got taken to the woodshed by allowing L-rollouts and HB screens between the hashes, Spags would've been an idiot to try and expend extra resources/gameplan to sack Baker. Lucky for us he's not that dumb. EDIT: Correction, Spags would've been Bob Sutton. Thank God he's not. |

Still waiting for 'playoff' Frank Clark to show up. You guys were telling me all year he was saving himself for playoffs. Okay so against the Browns he did shit lets see what he does against the Bills. |

I haven't watched the game again to see that specific point about the roll outs, but I'm sure the same applies here. |

However, this place throws out words like "suck" and "trash" with ridiculous frequency. It's adolescent at best. |
