Considering the shoddy play of Pollard, I can't say I'm all that surprised. If we're relying on Brown, we at least have some sort of backup plan with Morgan if (when?) Brown does go down.

The only bad thing about this news is that it gives GoChiefs more free reign on acting like an asshat.

Perhaps, but he's had a solid career so far with the Lions.

But, taking players like Britton, Unger and Loadholt in the second round makes a hell of a lot more sense than tying up ~$100 million in two O line positions when Albert's deal is up(had they drafted Monroe this year).

The previous regime failed miserably in the draft. There are countless busts that Carl, Dick, Herm et al drafted, which left the Chiefs with more holes than could possibly have been filled in one draft a FA signing period. Depending on where the Chiefs draft next year I would love to see them grab a pass rusher in the first round or Eric Berry is the slot fits and go O line with one or both second rounders.

BOTH second rounders. We need that right side fixed. As long as its a revolving door the defenses are going to continually stack that side.

8. The Lions and Browns are looking for some safety help. Expect them to claim one this week.

this was from a article/blog on 8-30

http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/...Post-9802.html from Mike Lombardi NFP

It makes sense with both page and pollard sitting out to get looks at Brown and McGraw with the starters.

Whether or not anything happens who knows. I just mentioned the browns. The lions traded for S Ko Simpson. Maybe they are shopping him to someone else not mentioned yet.

Otherwise i havn't seen it posted or reported anywhere else.

Pollard has the talent............i swear that bastard closes his eyes when he goes for the big hit or even to tackle. No other explanation. He doesn't break up enough passes either and misses to much on blitzes.(aside from Brady last year)

To much of a liability to start. I would rather have him be a backup and play special teams to see how he reacts than cut him though.

I'm just at the point i hope they get a mid rd pick or a player that can contribute if a team wants to take him and take a chance on him.

His day of reckoning approaches. Watching LJ run is to observe half-assed and QUIT in one nauseating package. 41 yards? Who gives a ****. He was beaten on the way to the end zone by a team that shares our stellar 2008 record.
Didn't even TRY to bump the defender off of and make a play. It's like watching a plodding elephant with a nitrous tank sticking out of it's ass try to charge it's way to a touchdown.

It's sad really.

Dear god, I'm having a vicious debate with a WPI poster about Pollard leading the team in tackles. :shake:

booger 09-04-2009 08:17 PM

Herm and Gun thought he was the next John Lynch when they drafted him. He has turned out to be the next Darnell Bing or Larry Atkins.

Mike Maslowski has the team tackle record that's all you need to know about tackle stats.

Not if they're a left tackle.

I guess the thing I really like about Pollard is he lays the wood when he hits and thats part of the reason he DOES wiff every couple of games. I'm sorry i really liked Greg Wesley when he came on too. I think the fear factor Pollard gives the receivers has to account for something.

He knew it was preseason and the offense needed practice in the red zone.
