Please be helpful and post your observations here for those that can't see this game. TIA.

 

[Keys Myaths]

I have the game feed here, so I'll help out.

 

[Chaos Commish]

In the Los Angeles area the game is on channel 13, unexpectedly for me anyway.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Herm tells the KC reporter there's no sense of panic.

Seriously.

Herm tells the KC reporter there's no sense of panic.Seriously.

I'm just excited that he's ain a position to have that asked. keep an eye on Turley, will ya fellas?

 

[Keys Myaths]

KC just driving down the field...nothing exciting, but they're already inside the 30.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Larry's jawing and shouting at the defenders in the preseason.

Gotta love the guy.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Be nervous, LJ owners. Dude already has 7 rushes.

 

[Keys Myaths]

BTW--for all you preseason overreactionists...Gonzo hasn't even been targeted yet.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Touchdown, LJ.

Seriously, I'm the wrong guy to read this from.

I don't take the preseason seriously, as has been well documented.

Do you want me to say who looks good/who doesn't so everyone can make irrational conclusions, or is what I'm doing okay?

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Chiefs march methodically down the field. I can't tell if Turley is doing much. It looks like he's been covered by a TE alot of that drive.

Ha ha. Whatever you like, mate. We don't grade your posts till the reg. season.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Issac Bruce and Torry Holt are not playing, in case you were wondering.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Pretty weak pass interference call here.

 

[Keys Myaths]

OMG JACKSON TWO RUSHES FOR -2 YARDS TRADE HIM NOW OMG.

 

[Billy1x]

Okay, here is what I see.

Larry Johnson, 9 rushs for 37 yards. NO receptions. Hope this is not what Herm plans for the regular season.

Kennison has the only two receptions so far. Still #1.

 

[massraider]

OMG JACKSON TWO RUSHES FOR -2 YARDS TRADE HIM NOW OMG.

Now you're gettin' it.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Local announcers here is St. Louis are HORRIBLE. Martin Kilcoyne and Ricky Proel talking about how the rookie DE Tamba Hall (not Hali) has been talked up.

 

[fruity pebbles]

OMG JACKSON TWO RUSHES FOR -2 YARDS TRADE HIM NOW OMG.

Wouldn't be a bad idea.

On the Raiders-Lions game yesterday, Jim Plunkett mentioned the Lions had gotten rid of Joey Heatherton in the offseason.

 

[Keys Myaths]

4th and 1? Hey, a 25 yard pass to the backup TE.

 

[Billy1x]

OMG JACKSON TWO RUSHES FOR -2 YARDS TRADE HIM NOW OMG.

Wouldn't be a bad idea.

At least the heel and hamstring seem okay.

 

[Bob N. Weaver]

Issac Bruce and Torry Holt are not playing, in case you were wondering.

Any explanation for this. The 3rd preseason game, I thought was to get the 1st teamers a half or so.

No kidding, and that's ALL you should be watching for in preseason.

Holt's still hurt, Bruce is old.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Alright, I'm done here except for major observations. Time to make some money.

 

[Billy1x]

Dang. Jackson was up to +2 yards. Now he's back to -3.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

4th and 1? Hey, a 25 yard pass to the backup TE.

I think I heard (KFNS) that Walker was moved up the depth chart but he is showing as #3 on the Rams website.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Larry Johnson done for the night.

 

[massraider]

Sweeeet.

Well it wasn't anything special. Wesley mis-read the play, thought it was a run, and the TE ran up-field wide open.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Kennison with his 4th catch of the game. Rams still with no answer for KC offense. Turley seems to be holding up pretty well. Green playing unmolested. 5th catch by Kennison.

I hear what you are saying but I disagree slightly. I also look for offensive schemes and how players are being used.One worry for example is the Chiefs offensive tackles struggling and tight ends being left in to help out with the pass rush. That obviously is a red flag for TE Tony Gonzalez that needs to be taken into consideration when compiling a cheat sheet.I also try to monitor the older running backs such as Fred Taylor and Corey Dillon to see if father time has caught up to them yet. I don't base my entire thought processes on preseason but do think it has its place in player evaluations...I definitely agree with you however when it comes to the 2nd quarter on when the backups get into the game. I completely ignore a player who goes off against a 3rd string defense.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

As I finish the least post, next 2 plays Green is running for his life but eludes the rush and hits Parker for a nice gain downfield.

Good tackle to prevent a TD by Witherspoon.

 

[Bailiver]

Kennison with his 4th catch of the game. Rams still with no answer for KC offense. Turley seems to be holding up pretty well. Green playing unmolested. 5th catch by Kennison.

The guy is value every year.

 

[acefootball]

Witherspoon = Stud

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

FG by KC. 10-3.

KC Running game looks nonexistant with Dee Brown in the game. Michael Bennett is expected to get some PT tonight according to the announcers.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Witherspoon = Stud

Agreed. 2 stops on the first 2 running plays from inside the 5 and then a hurry on the 3rd down incompletion.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Jackson stopped behind the LOS again.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Rams 3 and out.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Trent Green pulled. Brodie Croyle in game.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Bennett in the game 2 carries for 2 yards.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Long pass interference penalty on Tye Hill. Croyle going to Sammie Parker. Pass was well underthrown.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Bennett for 9 yards. 4 for 12 yards for Bennett.

 

[acefootball]

One thing I notice about SJax is that he breaks one or two tackles and seems like he has a big run coming, but the last defender almost always brings him down. One guy left to bring him down, always seems to hold him up long enough to get tackled. This is why I rank Tiki ahead of him, Tiki runs away from the last tackler to get that real long gain and alot of long TD runs.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Croyle hits Webb on the sideline but the rook doesn't drag his second foot. 13-3 KC.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Curtis deflects ball into Pollard for an INT.

Kevin Curtis slow to get up.

 

[HULLOBUDMAN]

Sack by the Rams. Brodie Croyle looks completely lost.

 

[Texican]

Who is LJ's handcuff? I thought Bennett, but it looks like Brown came in first.
