The Jets Blog — long one of our favorite NFL team blogs out there — took a long look at our Chiefs today. Quite the entertaining read, even for us homers who know the team and its struggles better than we’d like to admit. Here are some of the highlights:
- “Harm” Edwards. (Sorry, but if you prematurely end Curtis Martin’s storied career by needlessly running him into the ground, you get no love here.) The Preacher, as he’s affectionately known by some, returns to the site of the crime, the Meadowlands, and to the team he jumped ship on in 2005 after having led it to a 4-12 record and into general disarray.
- The once-vaunted line has rapidly deteriorated (no more Will Shields or Willie Roaf), and after going through Larry Johnson, Priest Holmes and a cast of dozens, rookie Kolby Smith now leads the once-feared, now-anemic running attack, currently dead last in the NFL at 79.7 yards a game.
- Pro bowl end Jared Allen has been a monster this year, notching 14 sacks and 2 TDs while terrifying offensive lines around the AFC. (Note to D’Brick: Hold him if necessary!)
- The Chiefs special teams have been — to be kind — an absolute mess.
- Bottom line: If there are more than 5 points scored this week, it’ll be a shocker.
With a top five draft pick going to the loser, let’s hope the Jets are the team lucky enough to muster those paltry five points.
