Yep. I don't think I've ever seen double badass safety play in a Chiefs uniform during my tenure as a fan. at best, it's always been one Superstar and one scrub. [Reply]

Berry and Parker in their prime were a great duo. Likely better than what Mathieu and Thornhill will be this year.
Those guys were part of that elite defense that the Chiefs had for a few years. [Reply]

Hardly. Your first problem was assigning the descriptor "elite" to any Chiefs defensive unit post Schottenheimer. Forget any feelings and nostalgia on my part, it's simply not true. Absolutely nothing that Bob Sutton accomplished statistically could ever be deemed elite. That's not what an elite defense is. An elite defense isn't one or two seasons and then disappears from the face of the Earth. All that means is that you had a couple of good seasons statistically. [Reply]

You can have your own definition of what an elite defense is but most people will say that a defense that is statistically top 5 any chosen season is an elite defense. [Reply]
