For the second time in three weeks a Kansas City Chiefs rookie has won the NFL.com Pepsi Rookie of the Week award.

Tony Moeaki beat out fellow nominees Sam Bradford of the St. Louis Rams, tight end Aaron Hernandez of the New England Patriots, running back C.J. Spiller of the Buffalo Bills, and free safety Earl Thomas of the Seattle Seahawks.

You may remember that Chiefs rookie Dexter McCluster won this award back in Week 1 when he torched the fools wearing Chargers uniforms to the tune of 94 yards on a punt return.

While these awards are largely meaningless, it is validation of the important contribution
this rookie class is making already.

Now that Moeaki and McCluster have their hardware, I think it is time for the Chiefs rookie defenders to get in n the action.

Eric Berry, Javier Arenas, I’m looking at you. How about a couple of picks in Indianapolis?

That a boy Tony! I may have voted more than once....however, you earned it baby! best catch of the week...possibly best catch by a rookie all year....

That was a great catch, had to vote a couple times for that myself. Now if we can do that after the bye i'll still feel good about the 24-14 win i said we would get. berry has got to stay home and not bite on that fake the next 2 games and we better not let them get to the corner or it could get ugly quick. Big order but we can do it go chiefs!!!!

Guess that must have been quite a catch, huh? Or, maybe my voting for him five times tipped the scale.

Man I was just about to email ya! How about this rookie class!! Its gotta be the best in the NFL for sure. At least to this point. GO CHIEFS!!!!
