Interesting comment from Suggs.

[Cardsfaninlouky]

Heard a short interview from him today. He was talking about the decision to go to KC. Said "I learned the hard way that I don't fit into every system" maybe not exact but something along those lines. He said Andy Reid told him they would make sure he fit into theirs. Sounds like a crack at VJ to me? Imo he's saying that VJ didn't use him the way he was told he would be used. He probably would've been better suited just coming in on obvious passing downs for us. I don't think he was good at playing the run this yr at all, damn sure couldn't cover anyone if that's what he was being asked to do? Wasted money just to bring him home. Sounded like a good signing at the time though.

He pretty much admitted that it was just a money grab for him this year.

I don’t put stock into any of this. He’s old and can’t come out and say yeah I’m washed up if he still wants to play

His ego got bruised by being released before the season ended. Does Suggs really believe that with 2 games left in the season the Chiefs are going to alter their defense just so Suggs fits in? He will probably end up being a passing down player who may see 20-25 snaps at most per game. The problem in AZ was who would the team have put in for Suggs on run downs? There was no one behind him that was any good. He was all they had at OLB.

Suggs never should have been signed - good riddance!

aww a player who did terribly with us has some backhanded comment after we cut him for not playing well again? interesting.

Here is what I think. Wade Phillips consistently coaches good defenses because he simplifies the duties of players. This enables players to play fast and think less. Where I believe Vance differs from this is that he asks his players to do too much. He tries to be too perfect. This causes players to play slower because they are asked to decipher a multitude of things vs just a few things.

In my experience in developing and calling defenses, I have always had more success when I had simple concepts that were executed at a high level vs complicated concepts that were executed at an average level.

hey it was an S bomb!

Andy Reid will use Suggs the best way to help the Chiefs win. If that doesn't fit in with Suggs' personal plans, he can try another team next year.

 

[schutd]

An AFC team keeping Suggs from returning to a possible playoff matchup team?

It still irks me that the Cardinals could have had Terrell Suggs and Anquan Boldin in that 2003 draft.

 

[Dback Jon]

So the D is playing much better without Suggs...

 

[WildBB]

Didn't like the signing at all. They just didn't want to give Golden a longer term deal. He didn't deserve to be cast aside, imo.

I believe the Boldin pick was one they got in the trade, iirc.

Yeah. They could have not made the trade and picked Suggs. They would have still had the sixth pick in the second round which they could have picked Boldin, maybe they wouldn’t have picked him that high, but they could have.

 

[AZCrazy]

The Boldin pick wasn't involved. Could've had him just fine. They traded down to take Baltimore's two consecutive later first round picks, which we used on Calvin Pace and Bryant Johnson.
Easily could have had Suggs and Boldin.

 

[pinetopred]

Didn't watch Cheifs game yesterday what did Suggs do did he fit that defense better then he fit ours?

That's right, they made them give up their high 2nd as well to drop down. They got luckey getting him and that Boldin was a stud right off the bat.

He had one assist in 17 snaps, 27% of the D snaps

I agree. The FO wasn't willing to give him another chance, the way he looked the next season after tearing up his knee. The Giants signed him, they said they hoped he returned to the form he was the yr before the injury. Now he's playing well. About 4-5 games ago I think I saw where he had 8.5 sacks at that point? Probably 10 or more by now? I haven't looked up his stats recently.

What jersey # did he get? I saw a few seconds of the Chiefs game while passing the tv in the break room at work. There was a player I didn't recognize wearing #95, was that him? I think Dee Ford had his #55 last season but he's now with the 49ers.
