Thornhill is the only guy on that play who sped to the ball and seemed like he actually wanted to make a tackle.
But let's keep him benched for literally the worst-graded defensive player in the NFL. |

Danna is tiny. He got sealed off by the TE.

Why the **** did Allen slide. He wasn't gonna get hit hard and probably could have broke tackle after tackle and scored.

This is the point I keep making to the "Move Jones inside!!!" crowd.
Danna is NOT a 3-down DE. He's undersized and raw. They need to be using him for maybe 25-30 snaps a game (and even that may be too many) as a guy who can come in with fresh legs on passing downs and maul his way into pressure. You move Jones inside and you're stuck with 3-man DE rotation of Okafor, Clark and Danna - that just will not work. Those guys will get obliterated. At this point the cake is baked - you have to leave Jones outside. Nnadi, Reed and Saunders need to pull their heads from their asses and play credible DT with Wharton as a rotational interior rusher. |

When the best effort you get from your defense 3 plays into a prime time game at home against a chief rival is maybe a C- effort, it may be time to look at your coaching staff. I just don't understand that play at all. I've watched it a couple dozen times now and EVERYONE is flat. I can't find a single person that seems to be playing at full tilt. You would think raw pride would prevent some of that shit yet here we are... |

The Chiefs are pot-committed here. And at least Reed and Nnadi have established themselves as good NFL players who should now be in their primes. There's nothing to indicate that those guys should just suck from now on. For the Chiefs to be a SB team they need those two guys to hole the line inside while Jones works from the outside and Clark/Danna form a credible rotation on the other side. I just don't see another path to a decent front 4. And if you don't get that, your probably sunk anyway. Moving Jones inside seems like a desperation play to get to 8-9 wins and in the process it takes the teams ceiling down. That's just not a move I'd be willing to make. |
