Gif'd up Chiefs vs Steelers AKA PalkOHNO!
 

Wow. If you want to know just how truly awful this kid is, look at this.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/tyler.gif

Palko was throwing to Steve Breaston, who's route was taking him about 30 yards down the field.

He put enough on the ball to get it to a guy standing 15 yards down the field. :doh!:

It's one thing to make a mental mistake, but he just flat out lacks the arm to make a 30-yard throw on the run. And he's not even aware of it. He's like one of us trying to play NFL football.

I can't EVER recall seeing an NFL QB underthrow a 30-yard pass by 15 yards. That might be the worst pass in Chiefs history.

And Jim Zorn was like, WTF IS GOING ON?

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/zorn.gif

It's like watching Kennedy's head explode on the Zapruder film. Three times is all I can stomach.

When I was watching the game, I thought that ball was intended for Bowe, and he just herp derp'd it or something.

As a left handed qb in the NFL, he should be able to make that throw to Breaston 8 or 9 times out of 10.

Obviously this fo doesn't value arm strenght in a quarterback.

This is nice pass rush by Houston and Bailey.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/houstonpit2.gif

I like the thought of having Bailey's big country strong ass in the middle in the nickle situations. He's starting to flash a little as I noticed he made a few good plays the other night. If we could get someone to consistently collapse the pocket from the center, Tamba would double his sack number.

In other news Tamba Hali is a damn monster. I

Did Palko win a prize in a cracker jack box or something?

WIN A CHANCE TO START 3 GAMES FOR THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS.

Country Strong just runs right through Kemeotu (who is a damn good guard)

Belcher did this last year.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/belcherpit.gif

Belcher should have probably made a play there, but that's just a damn good play by a damn fine qb.

One thing Belcher has to do is force Ben to the side line. He's gotta play inside out there. He was going for a ko instead of a sure tackle.

Houston winning at the POA.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/houstonpit3.gif

Most LBs whiff that one. Sucks but Ben is good.

Minus whale put this guy here:

Please don't show any more from the offense.

Look who else is in the backfield. OHNOES>

Ouch, didn't see this during the game. That's rough.

http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...03424046_n.jpg

Was a good play by Houston. Only problem is he shouldn't have tried to shed Miller to the outside and kept outside leverage. Play probably goes for a loss if he does.


I watched the game again last night. IMO our front seven dominated the Steelers for the most part.

I'm pretty stoked about last years draft class right now. I wish we could get Powe activated and see what he's got for a few straight games.

And thats WITH our 7-1 home record last year. Damn...

Barry Richardson is horrible exhibit 250918194

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/barry.gif

He is bad, but this is an example of him just not knowing who to block.

Well, yeah. That's ****ing bad.

I meant I think he actually does the right thing he is just to slow to chip down and kick out the guy on the outside.


But yea he sucks.

I think his arm is so strong that he's not used to throwing it only 30 yards. That's a flip for him, and he didn't flip it hard enough.

That was just a hell of a play by Big Ben. He raped Belcher.

Where the Maneri one of him running into Battle?

That was Becht

LMAO

Even without getting the sack, it disrupted the play and if Hali gets some push on this one its a sack.

ALL FOUR of our starting linebackers are good blitzers, when used that way.

Run an attacking scheme more often because its clearly evident that our defense plays a hell of a lot better when we do. These guys want to go get the quarterback.

We are never running an attacking 3-4.

We just did didn't we?

I dunno why we don't use the philosophy we used against Big Ben when we play little shit qbs.

Don't ever want to see a white boy playing safety ever again.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/mac.gif

That's actually a good point. When your footwork is jacked up and the ball comes out, it can get ugly. Understandable when you throw 50 balls for a weekend pickup game. Inexcusable when its your full-time professional job.

What the hell is that?

My biggest knock on this fo is that they keep guys who make plays like this because they " like" them. It's the ****ing NFL. Perform or GTFO.

Country strong also quick like cat

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/bailey.gif

Good play there.

Career Day D!

Not enough facepalms on the Planet for this. But I'll try...

Dorsey needs to be used as a NT and Country Strong needs to be the starting RDE if he can keep playing at this level.

I mean he could have atleast tried to strip the ball out there or something.

Mendehall is carrying it loose as ever when he spins there.

Not making a case for the guy, but... 3 forces going 1 way > 1 force going the other.

Dorsey needs to be put in situations where he can do what CS did right there. THat's where he could really excel.

Are you ****ing kidding me? Do you know how to tackle?

Hell wrap up and let them fall over you there and it's not a first down.

You realize you are watching slow motion right?

Yeah. You realize he jsut ran up and threw a shoulder into a guy and didn't wrap up right?

If he wraps up and explodes up thru Mendenhall there he makes the tackle not giving up 4 or 5 more yards.

:facepalm:

jd1020 thinks Jon McGraw did his job there.

nice

Explode through him? Are you ****ing stupid? There's 2 people behind him. He's not going to explode through shit.

What happens when a receiver gets sandwiched by 2 defenders at the same time? The receiver is still standing and the 2 defenders are on the ground.

He hit him hard enough to take him down but because DJ is right behind him pushing the other way he stayed on his feet.

I'm just stating that's how you properly tackle. If he bends at the knees and wraps up instead of laying a shoulder into him he probably gains 3 more yards instead of 7.

He probably isn't going to blow the guy up, but he should come up and wrap up and make a tackle. He probably has the three guys fall back onto him for sure. You are right there.

Hell if he wraps up maybe there is a fumble or somethign.

And it doesn't matter if there are people behind him. You explode thru tackles from the bottom up wrapping up.

I was referencing how to tackle there. I know he's not gonna blow up the rb in that case but he didn't properly hit or tackle the guy.

That's why the wr in your case is standing. Guys in the NFL want the big hit and don't wrap up sometimes.

McGraw just displayed crap technique. I understand the counter motion argument, but McGraw needed to plant and grab, hold on for dear life, not ry to smackdown.

I'm not a fan of McGraw at all. I think he's slow and unathletic.

But he's usually a technique tackler. Don't know what happened on that play.

Yes, certainly.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/mcfail.gif

After Palko & Cassel, if Orton is even luke warm. The offense will treat him like a rock star. Tony G was gonzo for freaking Thigpen

Exactly, those 3 MIGHT have taken him to the ground just shy of or at least close to the first down marker. All McGraw does is help him to keep his balance long enough to gain a few extra yards...

I'm sure there are a dozen other examples of his failed technique but the dude has never been a standout player for us. He's not fast. He plays smart and he uses good technique which are the only reasons he's in the NFL. I haven't wanted him on the team for the last 5 years but I do recognize what he does well.

:spock:

Most NFL defenders would do well to learn how to tackle properly. If you take someone low enough and hold on, it's very difficult to keep going regardless of any size or weight difference.

Look at our Defense in games with John Mcgraw vs. games without him this year and tell me if you still feel that way.

Being the floatiest turd in the toilet does not make you any less of a turd.

I'll take McGraw over Washington and Piscetelli anyday.

He's just trying to force a fumble and go for the ball on that attempted "hit".

FYP


EDIT: This was my 25,000th post, a smart-assed comment. How appropriate.

Another nice play by Houston.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/houston5pit.gif

at this point zorn has more sense than haley

Last gif. Should Palko have thrown it to Baldwin? Seems like he has more room to drop the ball into/fewer defenders.

http://uranus.ckt.net/~gochiefs/fu.gif

Man look at McCluster's block on that play. Pure awesome.

He should have recognized the defense unfolding, pumped to breaston underneath and gone to baldwin over the top. ideally. Or just hit breaston underneath and called a timeout. Everyone saw where he was going with that ball as he was throwing it and that doesn't help...

Couple of things about that last gif.

Count to yourself one-thousand, two-thousand and look at Baldwin. Palko may have seen him double if not triple covered, and immediately transitioned to Bowe.

As an aside- McCluster does a good job of picking up Worilds (#93) after he breezes by BR.

Well, Baldwin was double covered initially, but once Baldwin left the zone he was singled. Palko looked to Breaston initially, then after noticing the minimal gain, went for Bowe. Unfortunately, the defenders read his eyes and his long windup gave them plenty of time to go over to Bowe's side of the field.

This is why going through ALL progressions is a must. If he just LOOKED at Baldwin, they don't fly over so quick.

I remember seeing this play live. Thought it was going to break but Houston shed the block nicely. With Stude, I'm afraid he busts that one to the outside..

Hell yeah he should have. The way it looks there he was locked in on Bowe the entire play. Once Baldwin makes that cut in field he's pretty much open by NFL standards. Look off the safety in the middle of the field and put it up high and away across the middle, that's a great play... Hindsight, ehhhh...

And to the gif in the OP: I hate Palko as much as anyone, but that ball looks like it slipped out of his hand. On that kind of stage it shouldn't have happened but even the great ones have the ball slip out from time to time.

Surprised no one has noticed that the Steelers dropped 8 guys and we had a 3 man route going. Probably throw that ball away and move on to the next play.

If you are going to make that throw, with the coverage the Steelers are in you have to make the safety wrong and throw the route Bowe ran or throw the post behind the safety. I would have rather him put one up and let Baldwin or Bowe try and outjump or out muscle the safety.

Dwayne Bowe was not only wide open, but also closer. Rule of thumb as a QB: If you can't throw the ball any further down the field than 15 yards per pass, then quit attempting to do so.

If he releases the ball when he should have, when Bowe is just past the 30, and makes a good throw, basically a straight line between he and the outside edge of the "S" in CHIEFS, that's a touchdown.

After seeing his performance last Sunday, he's officially on my list of "dumbass QB's who think they'll be great in 2-3 years."

There is no way Palko can throw the ball 50 yards.

^Heck, he can't even throw the ball 30 yards, which he proved last Sunday.

IT was 1st and 15, that first pass could have been to Breaston right when he hit the right hashmark. Let him pick up 5-6 yards.

ya, but RT is so unimportant that it makes zero difference on any given play if they hold their block or know who to block or not.

Well, obviously Palko doesn't know when to release the ball at the proper time. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been intercepted six times in the last 2 games.

This is probably a good example for Zorn to use to teach our quarterbacks how to "look off the safety"

Palko does that and comes back to Baldwin, its a TD.

ROFL

Look at Dexter pop that defensive end.

You go, little fella.
