Chambers, Long, Must Step up with Bowe's Suspension

KU2010 — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:09:39 -0000

Dwayne Bowe, even without the suspension, is on pace for his worst year as a professional by a wide margin. After averaging 78 receptions and just over 1000 yards in his first two years in the league, Bowe was on pace to barely reach 800 yards on just 59 receptions.

Clearly whatever “performance enhancing” drug he was taking wasn’t working. Maybe his dealer screwed him. Maybe he’s like the wanna-be drug dealers back in high school who used to sell oregano to kids for them to go home and smoke. Maybe Dwayne needs to give Shawne Merriman a call and hook up with his performance enhancing drug dealer, because he made Merriman a beast the year he was caught.

On a more serious note, I wonder how this suspension will affect Bowe’s relationship with head coach Todd Haley. Haley has been on him to perform up to his ability since he got here, and yet only has two games of 75 yards or more this year.

Haley values players who can perform on the field day in and day out. Being suspended for four games certainly hurts that.

We of course don’t know for sure what exactly he tested positive for, although Adam Schefter says a source that he has says Bowe tested positive for a diuretic during training camp because he was trying to lose weight.

This scenario seems plausible, especially after hearing exactly how hard Haley was coming down on him at that point in time.

This of course will raise questions in the media of whether Haley's workouts are too demanding, and whether they push players into these kinds of things.

This suspension will take place right in the middle of the second hardest stretch of games the Chiefs have this year, facing the Steelers, Chargers, Broncos, and Bills. The first three of those games would been incredibly hard to win even with Bowe, although the Bills seem to be in even worse shape than are the Chiefs, especially after the recent firing of head coach Dick Jauron.

That Bills game was one of few left on the schedule where the Chiefs had a good chance of winning. With Bowe gone, that likelihood diminishes greatly.

We will see in the coming weeks how much Chris Chambers and Lance Long can step up their game and fill in for the talented, and missing, Dwayne Bowe.

Everyone Else is Talking About the Draft...

KU2010 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:32:56 -0000

Everyone else seems to be putting up draft predictions, so I decided I'd jump on the bandwagon.

Here's the guys I think we should target in the first three rounds..

Eric Berry – S: Tennessee

While my first instinct is to get the best OL available, passing on a talent like Eric Berry is just too hard. Russell Okung isn’t Jake Long or Joe Thomas, and tackles of his caliber come out every year. Guys with Berry’s playmaking ability come out once every 5 or 10 years.

Berry shows just how far the strong safety position has evolved over the years. Gone are the safeties that squat near the line of scrimmage acting as another linebacker. Guys like former Cowboy and current Bengal Roy Williams just aren’t in demand anymore. Berry is the epitome of a playmaker in the secondary; he can lay somebody out as well as getting the crucial interception, and be effective at either safety position.

Adding to the possible choice for this pick, as you guys know Jarrad Page was placed on IR Wednesday, ending his season, and maybe his stint with the Chiefs

If Berry happens to be off the board by the time the chiefs pick, the best OT (now Russell Okung) should be taken.

Sam Young – OT: Notre Dame

Pioli made a big deal over the summer about bringing in the "right 53" players to the Kansas City Chiefs, and Young could be one of those guys. He has been extremely durable through the years, as he has started every game of his career at Notre Dame, which is the first time in its history.

Young is a big time tackle in every sense of the word. He’s 6’7" and 320 lbs, and could immediately step in as right tackle for this team.

It was reported on AP earlier this week that Scott Pioli himself was at the Notre Dame practice scouting players, and this was more than likely one of two players he is really considering drafting this April (WR Golden Tate is the other one). There is a very good chance the Chiefs will grab him with their first pick in the second round.

Dezmon Briscoe –WR: Kansas

Coming into this year, it was predicted by some that if Briscoe had another year like last year, he’d be a first round pick. Unfortunately for KU fans, he’s not having as productive of a year, and the KU team as a whole is struggling. Because of this, he is not in the limelight and his draft stock will slip because of it.

Does that mean that he’s going to be less of a player in the NFL? No. Does it mean whoever ends up drafting him will get a better value? Absolutely. Instead of being a late first round pick, it’s looking more and more likely that he’ll be a late second round pick (ESPN’s Scouts Inc. oddly enough doesn’t even have him on their long list of draft eligible WRs)

He is a big, imposing wide receiver at 6′3″, 210 lbs., and can beat press coverage with ease. He, like Dwayne Bowe, is not a burner down field, but is deceptively fast and can get over the top of coverage when given the chance.

Briscoe displays excellent body control when going up for a reception, able to contort his body which ever way is needed to make the catch. He also does a very good job of timing his jump and high-pointing the ball (pic) much in the same way Larry Fitzgerald does (pic). Last year, he set school records in both receiving yards (1407) and touchdowns (15) for a season.

Nabbing him in the latter part of the second round (where the Atlanta pick will more than likely be) would be a steal for this organization and will help Matt Cassel tremendously. If the Chiefs don’t get Eric Berry with the first pick, I wouldn’t be opposed to picking up another KU kid here, safety Darrell Stuckey.

Zane Beadles – OG/OT: Utah

Beadles, like Young, is a very smart football player; for the past two years, he has been academic all-MWC and made the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll. He played right guard his freshman year before switching to left tackle for the past three years and has missed one game thus far in his career. At 6'4" and 305 lbs, he's the ideal size for either tackle or guard, but could be especially effective inside at guard.

Being smart is very advantageous for a lineman – he can recognize stunts and blitzes and can pick up protection schemes very easily. What you wouldn’t realize from talking to the kid or reading his quotes, is that he’s a monster on the field. He’s got a nasty attitude on the field and pushes guys around whenever he wants. He’s very adept at both pass and run blocking, and would immediately be a huge upgrade over Mike past-his-prime Goff.

Being able to get him in the third round of April’s draft would drastically improve this team, and give Cassel more time in the backfield to locate his receivers.

Chiefs running out of a wishbone formation?
What do you guys think?

Week One Analysis Preview: Chiefs - Ravens

KU2010 — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 15:31:14 -0000

The Ravens don’t have what you would call a “high powered offense.” If the Chiefs can put some points up on the board (17 or so), they have a shot at winning this game.

The Chiefs are really hoping Matt Cassel is going to be healthy enough to play Sunday, as that gives them a lot more options throwing the ball. If he is not ready to go, more than likely Brodie Croyle will get the start.

Even if Cassel’s leg is ready to go, the game plan will be the old cliché—“Run the ball, and stop the run.”

The left side of the offensive line (Albert, Waters, Niswanger) has been together for a year now, and they have developed some chemistry with each other. Look for the Chiefs to take advantage of this and run left much more than they run right. Running the ball effectively will keep the Baltimore defense on the field more than they want to be, and while they are very good, they are also old. Wearing them down will be easier now than in past years.

The biggest offensive key to the game for the Chiefs will be to protect the QB, and there are several ways to do this.

This is probably the easiest to do, while still keeping the play calling relatively simple: keep the tight ends in to block more often than they are out running routes, in an effort to help the struggling offensive line. The Ravens also run a 3-4 defense, and are among the best at doing so; their outside linebackers are very good at getting to the quarterback, and our young tackles might need some help.
Get the QB out of the pocket. Calling bootleg plays, especially off of play-action, will hold the linebackers, and give Cassel (or Croyle) more time to throw the ball. Both of them are young quarterbacks, and need that little extra time to find the open receiver.
No seven-step drops for the quarterback. For most passing plays, the quarterback takes either three, five, or seven steps back after the ball is snapped. Obviously, the more steps backwards, the longer it takes for the QB to throw the ball, and the easier it is for the pass rush to get in the backfield. Limiting these long drops, and mostly having only three-step drops and quick reads will get the ball out of his hands faster, neutralizing the pass rush.

The defense has played well in the preseason, as you guys know, especially against the run. We will see if they are for real this weekend, as the Ravens had the fourth best rushing game in the NFL last season. The defense should prove to be more aggressive this year than under Herm Edwards, and should result in more turnovers.

The keys to the game on the defensive side:

Stop the run. Easier said than done, right? The easiest way to do this, is to call run blitzes much more often than normal. The Ravens’ offensive line is very good, and keeping the linebackers up at the line of scrimmage will be advantageous in stopping the run. Also, keeping eight defenders in the box, that is, keeping a safety near the line of scrimmage also, will aid in stopping the run.
Put pressure on Joe Flacco. While Flacco played well last year (for a rookie) he still threw almost as many interceptions as he did touchdowns.Blitzing him in passing situations will make him uncomfortable in the pocket and force him into making mistakes. Getting turnovers will greatly help out the Chiefs offense by giving them a short field.

2010 Draft: Three Players the Chiefs should look at on Day Two

KU2010 — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:47:49 -0000

A few weeks ago, I wrote an article about the players the KC Chiefs should look at in the first few rounds of the draft. Now I'm going to look at some players the Chiefs should target in the last half of the draft.

Even though offensive linemen should be a priority in this draft, I left them out in my list to target in the first three rounds of the draft.

I feel this can be a very high impact draft. By this, I mean players of high impact positions are plentiful this year. Because of this, NT, WR, and TE were the targeted positions in rounds one through three.

Additionally, unless drafting a franchise left tackle, the value is not there for drafting any other position on the offensive line that high in the draft. Most starting interior linemen in the NFL weren't picked in rounds one and two, rather, they were drafted in the mid rounds or free agents. Same goes for most right tackles in the league.

Chris Scott

Scott is the kind of player I love on the offensive line. First, he is massive—6'5" and 346 lbs. Second, he plays with a nasty streak. National Football Post's college scout Wes Bunting says he has a "nasty punch on contact" and "he fights and scraps for every inch and usually gets his man on the ground."

The right tackle I want on my team is exactly that—he should be a road-grader who packs a punch and can push the pile in the running game. He obviously cannot be a liability in the passing game, but should be more suited for the run.

From what I've read, Scott will need minor work with his hand placement, but when he does get good hand placement he doesn't let go, and usually wins the battle.

Scott is continuing to improve after starting 26 straight games so far, and head coach Lane Kiffen called him the most improved player this spring.

Scott can expect to be drafted between rounds three and five.

Damion McIntosh clearly is not even an average starting right tackle in the NFL, and is more suited for back-up duty. With that being said, starting in the third round, the Chiefs need to start looking for a quality RT, and Scott is just the guy we're looking for.

J.D. Walton

Another lineman that plays with a mean streak, this Baylor center learned a lot from No. 2 overall pick Jason Smith over the past few years. He was selected for honorable mention All-Big 12 last year, and is on the Rimmington Award preseason Watch List.

At 6'3" and 305 lbs., he is the prototypical height and weight for an NFL center, and while strong enough to hold his own at the point of attack, isn't so strong that he can overwhelm the big 3-4 nose tackles by himself. This isn't that big of a problem, as most NFL centers can't manhandle good 3-4NTs.

Walton has good hand placement in pass protection and can both mirror defensive linemen, and withstand a bull rush.

As a fairly athletic center, he is able to chip at the line and move up to latch onto a linebacker on run plays.

The Chiefs haven't had a good center since Casey Wiegmann, and haven't had a great one for even longer. Niswanger may be the future at the position, but he hasn't shown signs of it yet.

With another year of playing center under Niswanger's belt, the coaching staff will be able to fully evaluate him and decide whether we need to draft one this upcoming April. If they decide we need to, this is our guy.

Carl Ihenacho

While Ihenacho is not the most highly touted prospect from San Jose State this year, fellow defensive end Justin Cole is, I think he has the chance to wind up the best after he has a few years to develop in the league.

At only 6'3" and 248lbs., he is too light to play defensive end in the NFL, and is a perfect candidate to make the switch to outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. He's quick, has decent enough strait-line speed (will run around the 4.6-4.7 range) and just simply is a gifted pass rusher. Last year he had 18.5 tackles for loss on top of seven sacks.

Remember what made the defensive end from Penn State, Aaron Maybin, such an intriguing prospect? It was his killer first step. Ihenacho has the same gift, and is very adept at timing the snap count, which only aids his quick first movements.

The second thing that makes him such a good pass rusher, other than his first step, is his short area change of direction skills. He can deke and fake and dip under the offensive lineman to get around the corner.

The Chiefs currently have nobody who can rush the passer like this guy can. We will see what Tamba Hali can do this upcoming season, but Mike Vrabel will need a replacement soon anyway, and we might as well start grooming one now.

Not sure exactly when Ihenacho will be available, it will greatly depend on how he does this year, but look for him teams to start looking at him around the fourth round.

Kurt Warner says Haley is missed in Arizona

KU2010 — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 15:19:06 -0000

Kurt Warner says Haley is missed in Arizona

"Mike Sando, of ESPN.com, reports Arizona Cardinals QB Kurt Warner said during a Phoenix radio interview that the team will have to cope with the loss of former offensive coordinator Todd Haley as Haley's aggressive coaching style kept players alert. The Cardinals wrapped up a preseason in which they looked very lethargic. "I'm not going to put that all on Todd, but he was very much a vocal, in-your-face, challenging type coach that would really push guys," Warner said. "Sometimes that would show itself in anger and frustration, guys yelling at each other on the sidelines, but the one thing I appreciated about Todd was, he pushed us to be great and he wasn't worried about being our best friend. He just wanted us to respect him for making us better players. I appreciate that part of it."

2010 Draft: Day One Players the Chiefs Should Look At

KU2010 — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 16:01:37 -0000

It is never too early to start looking ahead to next year's draft, especially if you've been a Kansas City Chiefs fan the past several years.

Now, this year has brought some optimism and a reason for excitement around town with the hiring of general manager Scott Pioli and head coach Todd Haley, but how big of a turnaround can you honestly expect after going 2-14? Miami's 10-game turnaround is a fluke and cannot be expected for most teams.

In all reality, the Chiefs will win somewhere around six games this year, and be picking in the bottom half of the top 10. With that in mind, here are some players the Chiefs should target that will not only pay dividends immediately and push for starting time as rookies, but can be stars down the road.

Lots of people will say we should get OL in rounds 1 and 2, but I'd argue that the value for the ones we need are found later in the draft. Wrapping top-15 money into our RT and LT I think is unnecessary. Most starting RTs in the league right now have come from later in the draft. I think we can do the same thing. Same goes for most interior linemen, but getting a top-notch OG in the second round I would not be opposed to.

With that said, Here's the 3 players I think we can get the most value out of in the first 3 rounds:

Terrance Cody

Cody is a massive 6'5", 365 lb. nose tackle from Alabama. The nickname "Mount Cody" was given to him at an early age, as even as a freshman in high school he was 6'2" and almost 280 lbs. In fact it was that year that his football coach called Cody's mother and said that her son would be in the NFL in eight years.

Alabama runs a 3-4 defense, so Cody is already used to playing directly over the center, and he could be just the clogger the Chiefs need in the middle of that line.

"He's a beast," said Georgia coach Mark Richt. "No one's blocked him. No one man has blocked him, and I haven't seen many double-teams block him, either. He's a problem, and probably the reason they are so outstanding against the rush. When you talk about guys who can push a pocket back in front of a quarterback, he can do it."

That is a glowing endorsement from an conference arch rival and music to Alabama fans' ears. He is a force to be reckoned with for sure, and could team with Tyson Jackson, Glenn Dorsey, and Alex Magee to form the best, young, defensive line rotation in the NFL.

Cody should be expected to be taken in the first round, if not on size and athletic ability alone.

Dezmon Briscoe

Briscoe is a Texas kid now attending Kansas University. He is a big, imposing wide receiver at 6'3", 210 lbs., and can beat press coverage with ease. He, like Dwayne Bowe, is not a burner down field, but is deceptively fast and can get over the top of coverage when given the chance.

Briscoe is a junior this season, so it's possible he stays in school for another year, but it is expected that he will enter the draft along with Jr. wide receivers Arrelious Benn and Dez Bryant.

Depending on how he does this year, Briscoe should be available in either the first or second rounds. If he production drops off from last year, and he run's in the mid 4.5's at the combine, look for him in the second round. Getting him there would be a steal.

Anthony McCoy

At 6'5" and 255 lbs., McCoy is a big target to hit. But he's different than Brad Cottam in that he's a much more natural pass catcher, and a great athlete on the field (pics). He came on strong at the end of last year for USC, catching 15 balls for 170 yards in his last four games.

He is also an accomplished in-line blocker, the National Football Post calls him a "coordinated blocker whose hands and feet consistently move in sync."

While it was expected that Cottam would be the starting tight end this year, it appears as though journeyman Sean Ryan is out playing him right now. Even if Cottam winds up starting by season's start, it's not a ringing endorsement for him.

The trading away of Gonzalez left a gaping hole in this offense, and McCoy won't necessarily fill that void, but he sure can help.

The 2-5-4 Formation, Corey Mays, and other Preseason Week 1 Ramblings

KU2010 — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:57:55 -0000

With the exception of Dwayne Bowe, the stars were not out on Saturday night. Judging by that game only, the Kansas City Chiefs should have a starting lineup without their newest multimillion dollar player Cassel, and instead have guys like Jovan Belcher, Rodney Wright, Brodie Croyle, and Dantrell Savage playing on a regular basis.

While its fairly well reported that Dwayne Bowe was being sent a message by being demoted to third team this past week, this message hurt more than just Bowe, it hurt his new quarterback, Matt Cassel, who clearly was being punished having to play with the likes of Terrance Copper and Devard Darling.

Matt Cassel's loss was Brodie Croyle's gain, as he had the opportunity to play with the two starting wide receiver from last season, Bowe and Mark Bradley. Croyle made the most of his fortune and went 12 for 18 for 145 yards.

While his playing time only led to one field goal, that was more due to Haley going for it on two consecutive fourth-down's than it was Croyle's inability to move the offense.

In fact, he seemed to do a very good job getting into a rhythm and threw the ball accurately to his wide receivers. He was already in the lead for the No. 2 spot behind Cassel, and if he has another game like this, he may lock it up for good.

2-5-4 Formation

For all teams, most preseason games follow the same type of mold—get the starters in just long enough to get some reps, and get them out before anyone is injured.

There is also an unwritten rule for coaches that you don't show any complex blitzes or formations before the games count for anything. You didn't see Miami running the Wildcat formation in preseason last year did you?

Because of this, I was expecting the Chiefs to run a base 3-4 defense for most of the game, and maybe show a 4-3 look every once in a while. But they didn't.

They did indeed run base 3-4 most of the game, but instead of showing the 4-3 a few times, I counted at least four times they showed a 2-5-4 formation, and a 1-5-5 formation once at the end of the game.

The Chiefs showing these formations really surprised me, and had me wondering what else they had up their sleeve scheme-wise that they are waiting for the regular season to unveil. While I'm not here to speculate exactly, it is an interesting subject nonetheless.

With the 2-5 formation, they mixed up the personnel quite a bit.

They showed it three different times on the second defensive series of the game, twice on back to back plays—first and 21 followed by second and 18. The two down linemen for these two plays were Ron Edwards and Tyson Jackson.

The third time that series they showed the 2-5, it was Edwards and Alphonso Boone as the linemen.

One the next defensive series, the third of the game, they showed the 2-5 once with Jackson and Alex Magee with their hands in the dirt.

Every time the Chiefs showed a 2-5 formation it was a passing down-and-distance for obvious reasons, and clearly with only two linemen, they both need to be stout against the run just in case the offense runs a draw play.

As far as the 1-5-5 formation goes, it was third and nine, at the end of the game, and I believe Houston had a 4WR set. I couldn't get a good look at the formation, as the camera was zoomed in, but there was one down lineman with three linebackers on the line rushing, with two more standing slightly behind them.

Seeing these formations immediately called to mind the Patriots, as Belichick is famous for running insane formations like the 2-5, 1-6, and even the 0-7 a few times. Pioli is clearly familiar with these, as Pendergast and the Cardinals did not run these formations last year.

As fans, expect to see the 2-5 on obvious passing downs, as Haley clearly believes the linebackers are a strength on this team, which is a drastic change from last year's squad.

Corey Mays

Mays is no longer just competing for a roster spot on this team, he might be in a dead heat competition with Zach Thomas the starting spot next to Derrick Johnson. Since mini-camp he has impressed the coaches, and this past Saturday he was all over the place making plays.

In the short amount of time he was in, he accumulated five tackles, and one pass deflection. It seemed as though the announcer was calling his name every play.

Mays originally signed a contract with the Chiefs expecting to compete for a roster spot as a special teams ace and a backup linebacker. He has far exceeded those expectations thus far, and continues to impress everyone involved.

In the two seasons he's been in the NFL with Cincinnati and New England, he accumulated 38 special teams tackles, and that’s exactly what he was planning on doing here.

Evidently though, there was something inside of him that neither of those coaching staffs saw, something that has come out of him since he has been here in Kansas City.

Zach Thomas can be a valuable asset for the Chiefs whether he starts or not. If Corey Mays keeps playing this well, there is no way he should not be starting at the strongside inside linebacker position next to Derrick Johnson.

Dwayne Bowe: 2009 Breakout Player of the Year

KU2010 — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 06:08:45 -0000

I know what you are thinking: "Can he really be considered a 'breakout candidate' if he's averaged over 75 catches and 1,000 yards his first two seasons?"

Yes.

Up until this point in his career, he has just been considered "good." This year, however, he has the chance to join the "elite" category of NFL wide receivers. There are several reasons that can lead us to this conclusion, the first of which is the widely known fact that wide receivers generally reach their peak during their third season.

Quarterback

The biggest change personnel-wise for the Chiefs this offseason, other than trading away future HOF tight end Tony Gonzalez, was the addition of star quarterback Matt Cassel from the Patriots. The inclusion of Cassel into the Chiefs offense will benefit Bowe greatly.

Not only will the Chiefs have a stable quarterback for an entire year (something that has yet to happen during his short career), but he will finally have a legitimate NFL-caliber QB sitting back in the pocket throwing him balls.

Cassel, while still without a great deep-ball, has the ability to hit Bowe on deep-post and fly patterns much more accurately than any other quarterback on the roster. Where Cassel really flourishes though, is in the short-to-intermediate passing game. Coincidentally, this is where Bowe works best also, and the increased accuracy and ball placement on these throws means No. 82 will have greater opportunities for yards after catch.

Throwing Opportunities

The Chiefs defense was among the league's worst last year, and for the majority of the season, looked like a college scout team out there trying to stop the opposing offense. The Chiefs were actually in most of the games last year, and lost them in the second half.

This dreadful defense will keep the Chiefs throwing early and often to keep them in games, and should average around 35 passes per game. I would assume that somewhere between a quarter and a third of these passes will make their way toward DBowe, which will put him on pace for somewhere around 11 targets per game, up from his 9.8 from last year.

Bowe had 157 total targets in 2008 (according to STATS, inc.), which put him at third in the league. Tony Gonzalez finished with 155 targets, good for fourth in the NFL, and these targets have to go somewhere. Bowe figures to get some of them, should be thrown to at least 165 times, maybe upwards of 170, and should turn those into between 100 and 110 catches.

This is of course assuming he gets rid of the case of The-Drops he had last year, but either way his numbers will go up. Bowe ended the 2008 season with 13 drops and at his yards per catch at 11.9 last year that would have given him over 150 extra yards had he quashed the stone-hands.

Dropped Weight

The most underrated change that is happening with Bowe this offseason, is the fact that new head coach Todd Haley mandated he drop weight, just like Larry Fitzgerald was told last season.

Bowe had been playing around 228, and Haley told him at the beginning of mini camp he needed to drop a significant amount of weight. As of August 2, Bowe was down to a svelte playing weight of 210 pounds. "I just feel better," he said. "I feel like I can run faster and jump higher."

This is a very good sign for Bowe, who has not played at 210 since high school. Bowe worked out with Larry Fitzgerald this offseason, who had to drop from 229 to 213 pounds last year. That dropped weight helped Fitzgerald have his statistically best year as a pro, and rack up 96 catches for 1,431 yards and 12 touchdowns.

John Lott, the Arizona strength and conditioning coach, said because of the lost weight Fitzgerald, "gained a step in speed, increased his vertical jump and combined improved fitness with breakthrough toughness that has resulted in him fighting and gaining more yards after the catch."

Prediction

So what can we expect from Dwayne Bowe this year? Well, his stat line should look something like this:

Catches—105 Yards—1250 Touchdowns—10
