Raiders @ Chiefs Open Thread

by Gameday

Due to Cover It Live having technical problems with their chat program (I’m guessing it’s that they are still overloaded due to the NFL) we are just going to do an open game thread. You can also chat anything and everything over on the Addict Boards. Go Chiefs!

Worst moment for me was when I realized it was into the 3rd quarter and I had not even heard Dorsey's name said once.

First post btw-

I was at the game I have never seen Arrowhead so subdued and quiet, just a big sea of red dread before the game even started. Im really depressed. I made it through last year but I cant take much more of this.

Wow. I mean seriously, wow. Playcalling? FREAKIN' WORTHLESS. I seriously could go in there, having no knowledge of the verbage they use, and execute a drive just by communicating what I wanted on each play, that would look better than any one single drive we've had thus far. I mean seriously, this is like Solari: The Ressurection. I haven't seen one F'ing play-action (although I was so digusted with this game that I left midway through the 3rd quarter, so I may have missed it once. The QB carousel isn't going to get the job done.

When you look that bad, you have to evaluate everything. The O-line: Left side looked ok, without much run-blocking going on. The right side looked horrid. Bring in Herb Taylor at least, and probably Barry Richardson too. Anything is an upgrade over Adrian Jones.

I can't put too much blame on the WR's/pass catchers, as Thigpen has absolutely NO TOUCH. How many passes did he ZING off people's shoulder-pads, or lead Tony G. into the ground? Sad. He's an NFL Quarterback, the supposed cream of the crop. F that. Thigpen needs to find another profession, as he hasn't improved an iota (based on what I saw) from the pre-season, and he looked downright sickening then. I watched a bit of a high-school game this week, and I can honestly say, that although the kid only passed like 3 times, I'd rather have HIM, than Thigpen.

I can't even get into the defense at the moment, or I may have a freakin' aneurism/heart attack/epilectic shock from closing my eyes so forcefully I start seeing colors, get mesmerized by them, and have a seizure. I could possibly die! So I'll stay away from that for now. I will say this.. I'm hoping Carl pulls a Trump, and we hear:

"Chan Gailey, YOU'RE FIRED!"

ill tell you y we lost...coaching!!!!!!!!!!! on offense wat happened to the runin game in the pre season did we throw all of that out all we have is a runin play right up the gut that gets 1-2 yards... where are the toss plays counters off tackles??? next wat the hell was up with the quaterback shuffle?? huard is terrible but he gave us the best chance to win...thigpen is horrible god that watchin that dude mad me sick!!!! and who the hell is this hagans dude god every time he came in you knew wat he was gonna do and so did the raiders!!! horrible playcallin horrible execution and horrible gameplanning!!!...

on defense...i tip my hat to them they kept us in the game and bailin out that pathetic shit we call an offense out! they kept on but eventually when your offense cant stay on the field you get tired but we need to learn to stop the run wheres dorsey and tank?? pat thomas is pathetic dj didnt play too hot we couldnt tackle and gave up to many big plays darren mcfaggot killed us!!!!

overall this was the worst game i've ever watched the hole 11 years i been a cheifs fan next to the 2006 colts playoff game horrible perfomance we need to fix this shit fast if it means gettin rid of herm im sorry for all you herm believers but hes garbage!! hes the worst x and o's coach ever hes a good motivator but thats about it!!!

GO CHIEFS!

Why was our run game so much better in preseason? I'm not talking about the competition, I mean the actual movement of the line, the holes opening, the cut-backs .... nothing has happened in 2 games ... looks like Solari's running game.

I think LJ is still LJ. Our run blocking was horrid. And you figure... Our blocking has been on a downward spiral, so much that maybe LJ has forgotten how to run.
I didnt buy into the Youth Movement plan that Herm has been trying to implement. I think we REALLY need to have some more experience on the field. Even Chris Simms sort of experience! Dude, now we're stuck with Tyler Thigpen. What a joke.
I liked the move of bringing in Chan Gailey, but this is such a let down. Our Offensive calls are absolute shit... Its like the same things over and over. The only diversity I saw was where Haggans faked a hand-off & rolled out to the left and the very next play did the EXACT same thing, except Haggans rolled out to the right... Wow. Riviting.

We need a better coach. Herm has slowly but surely drained our team down the drain.

I say we bring back Marty Schottenheimer. Or hey heres an idea... Bill Cowher.

I'm over this shit.

Herm Edwards is now 0-2 in three seasons in a row..Herm Edwards needs to be gone after this season..He is fucking terrible

We are terrible..Abs Terrible..This team is an embarassment..Oh yeah..Larry Johnson isn't back like you thought..He is incredibly over rated..Way over rated..He was either a much better back two years ago or had much better blocking..I'm willing to bet its a mixture of both..Here's to another wonderful draft..Can we have another coach to actually coach the new draft picks? What about a new offensive coordinator since this once fucking sucks

Pretty sad loss. Thigpen is not the answer. I have been a Herm supporter, but this game might be the end. I just don't see this working out. Once again, I still do no see the cutback running we did in preseason ... What a joke. By the way, awesome arrowhead crowd! Thanks for showing up Kansas City! What was the attendance, 20,000?

I cannot believe this shit.

I've been a conscious Chiefs fan since I was 7 years old... And I have NEVER seen them play this bad... EVER!

You can give us the excuse that Huard, Sutain, and McBride were injured. You can say that we played shitty QBs like Thigpen and this Haggans guy (WTF!?). Or that we didnt even have LJ in the game.... But I really dont care. We HARDLY looked competitive. Against the f*cking Raiders at that! This is the worst shit I've ever seen in my life.

And you know, today I heard Shannon Sharpe say that we were horrible, "Grizzly" horrible. I honestly sat there and thought to myself, "Nah... We are NOT a horrible team. We are not a horrible team."

But as I'm sitting here watching Michael Bush score yet another touchdown.... I realize...

...It's gonna be a LONG season.

That's where Zach and I and KCMizzou are chatting with Cover It Live down.

This is bad, folks. The kid gloves are coming off on A.A.

These guys better shape up in the half.

This offense is absolutely pathetic. Why is Thiggy playing in this game? Screw Kiffin getting fired tomorrow, we should fire Herm. This is ridiculous.

That was one ugly first quarter. Can our O-Line block? Would it kill LJ to pick up a blitzer before Damon gets rung up?

What the hell is this Thigpen crap! Do we just not want to win.

But it's private now.

I think I am going to chat in the boards section! LETS GO CHIEFS!

does anyone know a live feed that works?

No clue on B-Rich...probably just needed roster room.

Does anyone know why B Richardson is inactive? I was hoping he could get some good game time work and am concerned about DMack staying healthy.

I don't see any new posts on the addict boards ...?

Kwame Harris and his backup are out at LT for Oak. Third stringer Mario Henderson is in. Tamba Hali has got to get some pressure on Russell. If he doesn't, I think we have to say he is a complimentary pass rusher, not a primary one at this stage on his career. Now you could say Neil Smith was a complimentary pass rusher early in his career, feeding off the attention teams were paying to DT. Eventually he became a star himself. Hali is one guy I will be watching closely.
