Is There Such A Thing As A 3-4 Cornerback?

First off, I would like to apologize for this posting. It will not provide you with any information. There are no answers here, just questions. I would like to call upon our Addicts who have either played organized football or coached it to discuss the following:
Before I ask the questions, I would [...]

Wake Up, Chiefs Nation: Larry Johnson Is Done In K.C.

There is one thing about many Chiefs fans that drives me absolutely crazy. I’m sure others who cover the Chiefs — Chris Thorman, Jason Whitlock, Kent Babb, Merlin, Nick Athan, etc…. — get frustrated by it, too. I’m sure it’s not just us bloggers and writers either. I imagine that realistic Chiefs fans often get [...]

Arrowhead Adventures: Chiefs’ 2009 NFL Draft Party

I can’t tell you how long my buddy Dennis and I had been waiting for this day.
I have heard the figure 2% mentioned by the NFL when it comes to the percentage of fans that actually attend games. I’m sure it’s a much smaller percentage that attend non-game events.
I can tell you that over 98% [...]

Merlin’s Magic: 2009 Chief Draft Review

While the draft is one of my favorite events in football, the post-draft analysis is fun too. Going into to the draft, my biggest question was about the defensive direction. Is the 4-3 under defense our base set for years to come or is it a transitional phase to a 3-4 defense? This draft provided [...]
