    Where did they rank on 3rd and long? Capers defenses always made me nervous as hell on 3rd downs.

    It was often a nightmare, but his better D's had better success on 3rd down. Often pressure or a pick. The Packers long had a problem with pass coverage in the middle of the field.

    But the numbers I saw were not down and distance. They were totals for his tenure.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
