Chargers @ Chiefs Wk3 Game Day Thread / Post Game Discussion

[jubei]

Guys, what does Murray do that I should be excited about? Honestly, the guy reminds me of a linebacker version of Pipkens. I'm not aware of anything he does really well...at least so far in his NFL career. I want him to do well. To excel. But I don't know.

I'm not sold on him yet but didnt he lead the team in tackles last year?

Mike Williams: The game-winning TD was a run play with a fade tag. Justin gave BMW a heads-up and checked-out of the run.


CBS crew and Romo decried the call. Nance was a Mahomer the entire game but Tony knows his shit. Tony was dead wrong. It's like Mike Will said: "We trusted the defense."

Chargers have the opportunity to bring Murray up to speed slowly on the defense, rotating him in & out.

Quantity is good. I guess he does have good speed to catch up to running backs after they've gained 5+ yards. How many TFL's did he have?

I think Murray will be good in time. It’s just the slow learning period that’s not good.

I'm sure everyone noticed that, once again, Herbert was throwing lasers... dimes... ropes... darts... bullets... All of these adjectives apply.

His arm is ridiculous.

Doesn't a whole lot of that depend on the d-line in front of him?!?

Amazing QB. I thought he hurt his fingers on the play he hit a helmet with his follow-through but he seemed even better after that. ha

Was I the only one yelling at my TV screen when Gilman picked off Mahomes?
I find it amazing that so many guys come into the league and forget the rules are different from college.
He could have easily gotten up and run for at least 10 yards( even if he'd just played it safe and ran towards the sideline).
Every yard counts at that time of the game. I'm sure some of the guys in the DB room will let him know about it.

I know I was.

What if the d-line has an off day? Can Murray make things happen on his own or does he get locked up at the LOS too easily? I do think he can chase down running backs after 5+ yard gains effectively.

I agree-- Murray isn't Lawrence Taylor. <heheh>

I'm not close to giving up on him yet. He's delivered more to this point than Tillery has, and J.T.'s had an extra season to get his shit together!

[TexanBeerlover]

How was Tillery today?
