Time to talk up this defense a little. Kansas City is ranked number #5 in the AFC in overall defense. Yes! This a new day for these "Red Warriors"! They are ranked #9 in the "entire NFL" in overall defense. I wonder, do you remember, where we were last year at this time? I dont know ...but we finished at number 25.
Although there are 4 AFC teams above us right now, Baltimore who is in the number one spot, plays Cleveland in the Dog Pound this weekend. I have some faith that Cleveland's running game will work to trash the unrealistic 65yds/game rushing that the Ravens have managed thus far and bring the top defense a little closer to the pack.
I'll go to church and pray that Rueben Droughns, the Browns running back has a breakout game, after all he is an Oregon Duck! (a school not real popular around these parts these days!) LOL! I have faith he can break his 29.5 yds per game average at home in front of those friendly fans, if he can't the Ravens run defense will look unstoppable- by the numbers!
Our own #5 Defense needs to hold the Frisco Kids down when they come to town. RB Frank Gore comes in with Alex Smith and Forty Niner WR Antonio Bryant #81, who has been a phenom, averaging 30yds/catch, but you know that number will come down. They play Philadelphia this week.
Bryant is a weapon though, in "Monster Park" in San Francisco, along with #83 Arnaz Battle. #83, although he does catch fewer passes maintains a gawdy 19yds per catch!
Our Chief pass defense will have a great matchup. We have been holding back the opposition to 150 yds/passing a game. Completions against us, are averaging only 10.3yds. after two games. That number is the second best average in the AFC. It will be tough, but, we are begining to get a little reputation, a little recognition for our work, regardless if the game is on the road or at home.
This will be another great opportunity to "EnLarGe It".
Go Chiefs. Go Red Warriors!
