Your ultimate goal is to have a perfectly smooth lawn. A chisel plow will leave it rough till the end of time because the grooves or furrows where the chisel plow shanks went will settle for the next couple of years even though it will look and feel smooth the first year. Can you burn off the stalks? Maybe chop the stalks, rake up into a windrow and bale? Throwing seed out there in the cornstalks will get you a green lawn but you won't like it when you mow. You want as smooth of a seedbed as you can get so you will have a smooth ride when you mow and the only way you will achieve that is to start with bare ground. That stalk material will hinder your ability to get a perfectly smooth seedbed. Decomposing stalk material will leave voids and roughness. A bare seedbed warms up quicker and the grass seed will germinate sooner, hopefully faster than the weeds. You only have one chance to do it right so take a little more time and effort to do it right.
