Agreed.
Learning a new system isnt an excuse. He hasnt played up to expectations so far. There is no way to get around.
On positive side, there is still a lot of football left to be played and I liked what I saw last game. hopefully it was just an injury thing. [Reply]

Everyone looked better vs. Denver.
The coverage playing better helps out the pass rush which should in turn play better. The team finally gelling and fully understanding the scheme makes a big difference.
I suspect we'll still surrender a ton of rushing yards but not allow those huge pass plays for TD's every QB in the league was able to put up on us last year... [Reply]

Broncos offense sucks. Lets not overreact over one game here. Show me some consistency then I'll get excited [Reply]

I agree with this. However, how many times over the past couple of decades have we seen our defense make back up QBs and crappy defenses look good. Last week the defense actually did what they were supposed to against a bad offense.
But I ultimately agree, I need to see some consistency before I get too excited. It was a nice step in the right direction though. [Reply]
Finally found one of the links discussing Clark's effectiveness agasint the run. In this one, after the Ravens game, runs at Clark averaged 2.5 yards/carry.
The analyst is Craig Stout, defensive film analyst for Arrowhead Pride
(though I'm pretty sure he was introduced as the analyst for the Chiefs, my bad I guess). His comments about Clark's defensive stats against the run begin around the 2:50 mark.
When I find another one, I'll add it here in this post. [Reply]

Just for clarification, Craig Stout is a “film analyst” for Arrowhead Pride, not the Chiefs. [Reply]

1) Craig Stout? Lol ok
2) He works for Arrowhead pride not the chiefs
3) That 2.5 number is based on the first TWO weeks of the season. [Reply]

Thanks. That was one the other charts that I've been looking for.
Also, there's a clip of Spags in a presser saying that Clark was holding rushes to his side down to about 2.7 or 2.8 yards/carry, about three weeks ago. Still haven't found it, but I'm still looking.
