PFF: Poor game from Fisher

[Hammock Parties]

Yup. Very poor game.

I’m not in the business of making excuses for someone, but how bad is the hand of Eric Fisher (-4.5)? I ask because his performance was of such a level and he seemed to be favoring his hand so often, that the question had to be asked: are the Chiefs doing the right thing getting him game time as opposed to letting him heal?

He had to leave the field after Will Tukuafu got the better of him with 4:05 to go in the first and yet he would return to finish out the first half. That wasn’t the only time he struggled as Ray McDonald was too powerful for him at the point of attack on the opening drive, having no problem working on his inside shoulder and getting off his blocking attempts.

In pass protection, Parys Haralson (hurry and sack), Corey Lemonier (hurry) and Ahmad Brooks (hurry with an assist from some hands to the face) all got past him, while he failed on two occasions to execute cut blocks on stretch runs.

More is expected of the first overall pick.

Whatever good Fisher did is outweighed by the bad.

Injury-prone turnstile. Damn you are hyperbolic.

Isnt it cute to hear that Eric Fisher is injury prone, but Geno Smith twisted his ****ing ankle in the open field ON HIS OWN......

Yet, Eric Fisher is the injury prone one.

The guy had a -4.5 grade. In 30 snaps.

It's hard to suck that bad.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Let's trade Albert to SF for another shitty Receiver!/Lil Chiefy

[RunKC]

If he sucks this bad on a consistent basis next month, then I'll start to worry. Until then, relax.

This thread is hot tonight, boyo.

It's like Eric Fisher put on his best **** me pumps, a couple of push up bras and went out to a hot new club to get free drinks from horny homers.

Not really hard, there have been others. We have had our share of turnstiles in the past.

And then Larry Johnson threw a drink in his face.

No, if he sucks this bad for the whole preseason then we have a serious problem. I'm hoping this is just an injury. But even then, we have to hope the injury heals.

He cannot continue to play this badly and us have a hope of making the playoffs.

I'm not exactly optimistic about him, but I'm hoping it was just the whole offensive line not being prepared for a beastly defense.

So we are back to trying to justify a project right tackle at first overall?

Great.

If I was privy to the information GMs are privy to, I'd say I'd have done something like this:

1) Sign Matt Moore instead of trading two seconds for Alex Smyth and cut Matt Cassel.

2) Trade down to 12 with Miami, adding another second rounder.



3) Draft EJ Manuel, Geno Smith. depending on who interviewed/worked out the best. Not who I thought would be an immediate impact quarterback, but who I thought had the highest achievable ceiling.

4) take Robert Woods with our second rounder to help give our drafted quarterback a chance with two good receivers.

5) Draft Margus Hunt with our traded for second rounder from Miami

6) I like the Travis Kelce pick, so I'll actually keep that one at the top of the third.

7) Alex Okeafor with the comp third.

8) Nico Johnson with the fourth

9) coupled my 5 and 7th rounders to move up to take Marcus Lattimore

10) Bacardi Rambo in the 6th

11) Tyler Bray with the 6th comp pick

As far as FA goes, I am OK with Sean Smith, Fasano, Hussein, Devito, Jordan and Avery.

I would still have my second rounder next year and would be VERY excited about the short and long term future of this team.

How's that?

[BossChief]

Crickets?

[Mav]

Boss Chief-

Lets get something really clear.

Im not trying to justify anything. Just because he isn't mowing down an entire defense by himself after not even a full games worth of professional action, doesn't in any way shape or form mean he is a "project". He is transitioning.

I stated this before. In Joe Thomas' very first NFL regular season game as a professional gave up 4 sacks by himself against the Steelers in a 34-7 home loss.

Now, this is one of the BEST 3 Tackles in the league. So I guess with the logic being displayed here, he was a project pick as well.

[chiefzilla1501]

The fact is...
This front office will be judged on the QB we have in year 3, and the QBs we passed on. Period.

The Smith trade. Passing on Geno. Etc... None of that matters, even the trade value, if we have a franchise QB in 3 year, even if by some miracle, that ends up being Alex Smith.

I don't care to hear anything from you. You aren't anywhere near as smart as you think you are in football terms, you are condescending and then pull the "I want to keep this about football only" card constantly, you are a quitter, you don't have any ability to be interesting and your only redeemable quality is that you served in the military, but the loads of other stuff about you personally cancelled that positive out and swung the pendulum the other way.

Nobody here respects you or your takes because we are all loyal fans of a team that is normally bad, but we stick through thick and thin, and you jump ship whenever you
decide the weather changes.

The saddest part?

You are only here because you are Alex Smiths personal condom/dicksock.

Get lost.
