Coffee with the Chiefs – Bad report from camp?

Good morning, Addicts! This Friday is awesome for a few reasons. One, it’s a Friday. Two, it’s a Red Friday. And three, it’s a gameday Friday, which you can only say in the preseason. Tonight, the Kansas City Chiefs will be taking on the Tennessee Titans at Arrowhead Stadium. The starters will play the majority of three quarters before giving the depth players one more shot to prove themselves. Buckle up, this should be interesting.

In the meantime, here is the news you need to know:

Chiefs have some serious issues to address – Robert Klemko of Monday Morning Quarterback

"The Chiefs were rewarded for their decision when Ford played well both against the run and pass.

Hali will also play some, unlike last week."
