Photos and Updates from Day Two of Chiefs Minicamp

The Kansas City Star has another photo gallery of pictures from day two of the Kansas City Chiefs mandatory minicamp. 

Check up on the AFC West with Bill Williamson answering questions at his ESPN AFC West blog.

79 players attended the afternoon practice.  The four usual suspects were missing in action (Kolby Smith, Glenn Dorsey, Brodie Croyle, Ron Edwards), Monty Beisel was attending his brother's wedding and Tony Curtis was getting married.

The offense looked terrible in the afternoon practice according to Bob Gretz (H/T woodman212 in the FanShots).

Things got worse in the teamwork portion of the practice.  The Chiefs ran 12 plays and only three gained more than a few yards.  There were two near interceptions by the defense, which twice snuffed out screen passes behind the line of scrimmage.  The last play of teamwork and the practice ended with a shotgun snap from C Rudy Niswanger sailing over the head of Cassel.

The ball was on the ground more than in the offense's hands according to Gretz.  It's only June, it's only June, it's only....

There's one more practice tomorrow morning then we'll have a full wrap up of everything you need to know about the Chiefs mandatory camp.  I have had a long day and am headed to bed early tonight so expect the updates to start early tomorrow.

Have a good Saturday everyone.

I would hope that the D is learning faster than than the O!

Plus the D cheats against what they have seen for 4 practices.
Too bad we won’t scrimmage the Vikings in that regard.

So...

McGee made Jones look like a pylon but an “out of shape” Brian Waters roughed him up. Good stuff. More proof we need Waters.

On the bright side...

It looks like the D is playing better. Maybe it’s the improved D and offense trying to get there. :D

I'm sure we will see many more days like this.

We had the “teachers” come in and start schoolin’ the young pups.

Yeah, let's just keep matriculatin' the ball down the field, boys! ...

Problems with the screen pass execution

date back to Priest Holmes’ retirement. We need some real pick-n-roll outta the RBs. Outmaneuvering bigger LBs and DLs in the backfield is an organic thing that needs to happen, and hasn’t, for years. The QB needs to know where and when to put it, and the RB needs to know how to help the QB, and trust that the QB will lead him perfectly with the pass. Lots of dropped screens and poorly-executed screens in the last few seasons.
