Good: Dee Ford

You read that right! Dee Ford was good against the Oakland Raiders and it was much needed for the Kansas City Chiefs!

Ford had five tackles, two sacks, and also forced the fumble at the end of the game that basically clinched a Chiefs victory.

Now look, I’ll admit that I’ve been pretty tough on Dee Ford, but who hasn’t been? He was a first round pick for this team in 2014 and has not been what the team was hoping for when they picked him that early on.

This game, however, showed that Ford can be that guy. He showed ferociousness in this game and with how poorly the Chiefs pass rush has looked in five games, that was big.

I’m not going to continue expecting to see these games from Dee Ford, but the fact that he was able to get through that tough Oakland offensive line and sack Derek Carr twice was impressive.
