Wow, KC rookies looking good.

Anyone else see the Stl and KC game tonight?

Tamba Hali dropped back into zone coverage a couple times and looked decent doing it. He also had a sack, a couple tackles while helping stuff Steven Jackson in teh backfield numberous times. He also forced a fumble from Bulger.

Bernard Pollard had a pick, looked great in coverage, and had some great big hits. He also had the huge hit sealing the win my popping the ball out of a WRs (McDonald i think) hands with a well delivered hit. The ball then fluttered through the air into Benny Sapp's hands. Who also had a great game on ST and blitzing the QB. Another young player that looked imprssive was Derrik Johnson, he was the first to make contact and get the full tackle on Jackson in the backfield about 3 times. He also i think had a nice pass Def or 2 in the time he saw.


On offense, Brodie Croyle looked pretty normal for a rookie QBs first game, LJ looked like the old for last year, running mad. And Eddy looked to be running some nice routes.

But the most impressive person IMO again was Mr. Kyle Turly. Once again he had another great game with some nice blocks and great pass protection. He has definatly looked better Welbourn so far.

Brodie Croyle had a dissapointing night, but to his credit I don't blame it on him. Our backup offensive line has struggled all preseason and there were probably 3 or 4 catchable balls he threw that the WR dropped or ran the wrong route or couldn't stay in bounds.

-The defense was pretty great, especially the rookies.

-Tamba Hali was all over the field and even lined up at linebacker in some 3-4 packages. He had a sack and forced fumble on Marc Bulger that was recovered by James Reed. He got some good pressure on alot of other plays.

-Bernard Pollard was my player of the game. He had a great interception and a forced fumble where he completely knocked the **** out of a wide receiver.

-If some of the defenders could keep control of the ball we could have had a good 2 or 3 more interceptions. Keyaron Fox, Marcus Maxey, Ty Law, and Derrick Johnson all got there hands on the ball but were unable to make the interception. Regardless, a deflection is much better than allowing a completion.

Even worse. Dating back to the 2004 preseason we had lost 8 straight. We lost the last two preseason games in 2004, every preseason game in 2005, and the first two preseason games in 2006.

Preseason means nothing. The raiders are undefeated, that should tell you something.

Poor Brodie.
I know he'll get better and the injuries haven't helped him. who's next for the cheifs?

Talk about irony. Last Chiefs preseason win came against the Rams at Arrowhead.

Hey i mentioned in my post that Croyle struggled in his first NFL appearence. And if im not mistaken i dont think a third round pick is supposed to be as good as a first rounder yet

And ya Sammie Parker got lit up, but the sad this is that we had 3 chances to punch it in from teh 2 and we didnt on that possesion. Dee Brown looked terrible last night too.

[The X-Factor 82]

Bernard "Bonecrusher" Pollard baby!! Looks like we may have a Chiefs version of Steve Atwater. That hit he put on the lambs reciever was wicked.

[NameUsedBefore]

How'd former Broncos Lenny Walls and Quentin Griffin do?

[jhns]

Hali was the guy I wanted to Broncos to get if we stayed in the later part of the first round. The guy does look good.
