Jamaal Charles’ Awesome Fourth Down TD Run

Todd Haley stuck to his guns and stayed with the Parcells philosophy — (paraphrasing) “if you don’t go for it on fourth and short from anywhere reasonable on the field you are a chickensh**.” Instead of calling another boneheaded quarterback sneak or pounding it up the middle with smallish running backs and a mediocre line, [...]

I didn’t even need to put on 100 pounds, start talking like a gay Forrest Gump or whip out any charts either. When the Raiders can invade Arrowhead and pillage our Chiefs despite the game being [...]

Chiefs Shoot Themselves In The Foot

After a strong first half which could have ended with a bang, the Chiefs allowed time to expire in chip-shot field goal range. I’m disappointed, but this was mostly due to the two early timeouts burned by the Kansas City offense. Additionally, Matt Cassel couldn’t get the ball to a receiver near the sideline on [...]

Cassel, Flowers Active For The Chiefs

Matt Cassel is one of two quarterbacks active for the Chiefs today. That’s a big shot in the arm for both the crowd and the offense. Brandon Flowers is also active. Surprisingly, Jamaal Charles is inactive. Most of the Best family is at the game today, which means no chat, but I’ll be holding down [...]
