Also when Clark shot through the line and smashed Ekler to force the three and out, he was being held and tackled yet still got to Ekler for the stop. I hope you guys saw that too because I was very impressed. [Reply]

Didn't say it was meaningless. I'm saying I'm not going to sit here and think he did something great when he should have destroyed that kid the entire game. I say that meaning this is a $100 million edge rusher, in what is supposed to be his prime, going against a 3rd round rookie. Let that sink in for a second before you decide to grope his testicles for a performance he should be putting up rather regularly against seasoned vets. It was a solid performance, sure, but it should be more than expected of him to perform at least at that level against such opponents. The posse is chiming in as if this is some changing of the norm for him. I'm going to wait and see if he does it against a talent his equal before I sing any praises. [Reply]

Ok man
I've taken a minute to commiserate with you about the bleak picture that is the chiefs franchise...

It was frustrating watching him walking leisurely to the line while the Chargers were in hurry up mode. He was half a second away from getting called offsides on one play, and on the other, he clearly wasn't focused on the play because he was still in "walk mode" as soon as the ball was snapped.
He did get a little bit of pressure on one or two plays on the last drive, though. I get conserving one's energy and all that... just don't cut it so fucking close next time, Frank. [Reply]

Fisher looked like a late 3rd round rookie pick tonight....
to be expected after 7 games off especially in this altitude... I'm sure he was having lots of trouble catching his wind. Have you ever went skiing in the Rockies (jackson hole/breck/aspen) and you live in the Midwest? [Reply]
