Asking Chief Fans - The Orange Mane

Willynowei · 12-04-2005, 06:45 PM

Can you guys think of D-lines or Defenses that have performed well vs. the Chiefs O-line when healthy in the past 5 seasons?

Especially that year you had Woaf, Waters, Wiegleman, Shields and Tait instead of Wellbourn. Were there any D-lines that clearly performed well? If you could share that, it would be much appreciated.

Because i'm not sure what to think of our D-line, i understand your O-line is THE measuring stick, but was this the expected result of an AVERAGE D-line or a BAD D-line?

Thanks in advance.

Our OL is nothing like the year you are refering to.

Age has slowed us down some, still good, but not dominate like before.

Jacksonville probably... they've got the two big DT's in the middle. Those are the best teams against our O-line I think, get a space eater in the middle. Not teams like the Broncos, Colts, etc... that have good speed but may be a bit undersized in comparison.

I'd say the Panthers and Benglas (2years ago.)

That's the last time I can think of a 4 man rush making us look bad....

Jax, Carolina, Cincy. Other than that, I think the line is good enough to push anybody around if they're healthy and the playcalling lets them take over.

You need two really strong guys in the middle to do a lot. Roaf isn't going to give up anything and they do a good job of helping on the right edge with the TE.
