Again, you have to remember our defense was on the field alot. Of course guys are gonna pileup numbers and get tackles? And dorsey is no exception. But don't let those stats blind you?

You gotta shift your focus and attention more towards the other things that he is supposed to do. Like for example, Is he able to contain rushes well enough? Is he able to close and fill in gaps well enough causing RBs to change directions when they run? And to freeup the LB's to make play in the running game. Is he explosive and quick enough at the LOS in passing situations where he can penetrate his way into the backfield and create pressure on the QB forcing him to make a bad throw? Is he strong enough to the point where he can overpower guards, or centers to get that good push at the LOS and prevent the QB from stepping up? Those are a few examples. Whats his technique like?

To look and compare his stats with Warren Sapp and say that they're similar and just because Sapp didn't bust and you say so won't Dorsey is a really not a fair way of judging him.

As a matter of fact, I don't think stats are a good way of evaluating DT play period.

This may have already been addressed and if it has, my apologies. I am a bit late to this party. I don't think they were trying to use those stats to evaluate Dorsey's play in 2008 so much as they were using them to argue that you cannot call him a bust yet. Some guys take a year or two to get comfortable playing in the NFL. The guy's head is probably still spinning. I expect to see improvement out of him next year.

Woo Hoo!!!!! Fire Herm! Fire Herm! Fire Herm!

What's going to happen, when the Chiefs win a Super Bowl, and go in to the off season with every possible piece in place, no position to wrench guts or hands over regarding a draft, and no coaches departing or coming in?

Oh you laugh( or not )now, but you KNOW it's coming.

And another thing. I don't think he got the kind of coaching he needed. Hopefully, our new GM will get a competent coaching staff in here and this will be much better next year. :)
