From the land of the free and the home of the chiefs, this is the

locked on chiefs podcast. Welcome back to locked on chiefs. It's another Monday

and you are one day closer to having real actual cheese football to watch.

So welcome back to the show everyone.

Hope you had a nice weekend.

We are going to get into a couple of topics as we start this week and kind of wander through

looking at some of the bigger deals,

especially start the week here on defense and talk about some of the leadership here and how things

might be changing.

It's me and Chris today, how are you, pal? I'm good, How are you? I'm good. How are you?

You know, I'm starting to feel a little bit better. Hopefully I sound better too, so we'll

see how it goes. So starting to look at the guys that are going to have to take over the leadership,

you know, obviously with the loss of both Eric Berry and Justin Houston, to the guys that have

been vocal since, honestly, since the departure of Eric Johnson and Tomahalee, the guys at the

guys getting this defense ready to go have changed significantly and I think for

once it's probably a positive thing.

Yeah, I think it is and you look at Justin Houston,

Justin Houston was kind of forced into a leadership role

when Eric Berry got hurt.

He assumed more of a leadership role as things went on. But at this point, your leaders are going to be Frank Clark and Tiron Matthew. I mean, those are going to be your leaders on defense.

Yeah, absolutely. And I think we should probably start at the back of the defense for once because we've been

talking a whole lot.
