I think it is not fair to talk about Berry in this way. Last two seasons he was injured and it seems that he still has problems with his heel. To let him play in the afccg was the fault of the coaches. Not his fault.

Every game EB played in this season the CHIEFS LOST. The guy brings bad vibes and LOSSES. It would be nice of him to renegotiate his contract and give some of his salary back to help out the team because he sure isn't helping the team anymore. EB should have sat out the AFC CHAMPIONSHIP game to help his team win.

The part of my emotional makeup that's still awash with anguish agrees with you, Mr. GermanChief.

On the other hand, imagine you're a coach and Eric Berry walks up to you and says, "Coach, I'm good to go. Just give me a couple of injections and I'll shut down Gronk all day." What would you do?

It doesn't need to be said that teams need to have their best 11 on the field. Hoboy has put is in an untenable situation here.

Chiefs Moon 01-25-2019 06:30 AM

When EB decided not to get surgery, he decided he would never play healthy again. He signed up for chronic tendonitis. He could never train properly, he could never play multiple games consecutively. The Chiefs can't make someone have surgery, but I would be interested to know if EB refused. If so, he essentially retired.

bigjosh 01-25-2019 06:34 AM

Put him on the ****ing NFI. A bone overgrown isnt a ****ing football injury, he has been paid 30million in his career for non football injuries already.

I think teams with higher densities of gladiators like Hill (and other players who tend to play through pain and injury) tend win the ultimate prize. And a player like Berry, stringing the team and fans along with the day-to-day BS while drawing #1 cash for his position, is 100% fair to criticize.

We know, we know, he had cancer....

If he'd like to come forward and change our minds with something more than "it's complicated", we're all ears. Again, he doesn't have to do that, he has a "right" to privacy (and to draw the check), but we have the right to be critical too.

"Day to day" shit. I know, I think the same. But this are decisions of the coaches. I remeber the matches at Panthers and Falcons where he made 14 points as defender. Give him onr more season.

ChiefoftheKeyboard 01-25-2019 04:51 PM

We need to agree to an injury buy out. Dorsey didn’t want to sign him but Clark got in the way. Hope he isn’t still on the team bc of Clark’s sympathy towards his cancer. It’s a business at the end of the day, and that contract is bad for business.

The sooner you realize that the NFL is a business and take emotions out of the equation, the better off you'll be. Uric was good 3 years ago, but has been a hot pile of dog shit since. Time to let him go.

He's not our hero. He's a weak, too-secretive, slow, money-grubbing, head case. He's a distraction at best, a bad influence on younger players (teaching them that quitting on the team is OK), and he's wasting a roster spot. But I'm sure he'll deny all of that and tell us what was really going on, and understanding that we get "complicated."

He's anything but a hero.

I wouldn't use "hate" to describe my feelings for hunt. More like "what a dumb mother ****er". Berry on the other hand is stealing money at this point and had no business playing in the AFCCG but convinced the coaches that he was the best option. Now we're talking about the draft instead of our first SB appearance in 50 years

No one would give that much of a shit about Berry if he wasn't also handicapping to an extent the ability of this team to improve with his horrific cap number and next to no results to show for it.

You'll see that if the Chiefs cut Berry June 1st, they'll save $9.55 million. They will have $6.95 million in dead money that will still count against the cap. This is the first year, however, that the team can get out from under Berry's contract. You can get a hell of a nice player for $9.55 million dollars in cap money next season. For instance, the franchise tag number for safeties in 2018 was around $11.2 million.

you MIGHT want to have some facts before you call people morons.

Let's make it happen, it is the ONLY worthy outcome.

You all want to complain that he's done because of the Haglund's Deformity, that we can't cut him due to the surgery to correct the Haglund's Deformity, but you don't think the surgery to fix the Haglund's Deformity will actually - you know - HELP.

I mean, I'd put more money on that happening than Earl Thomas coming back and playing at a high level.

But, I forgot this is CP, where the future is absolutely known and will be always terrible.

So Berry went in for surgery on Monday( a surgery he scheduled months in advance )because his Spirit is broken apart about his piss-poor performance against the Pats in the most important game of the year, and that he does NOT want to be an albatross to this team, and we can expect his healing process to be close to over by the time we hit camp?

No?

The recovery time from the type of surgery Eric Berry is getting is 6-8 months... always bet the over on Eric Berry's recovery time from foot injures... so that means August is likely the EARLIEST that he would be able to return to football activities.

It will probably be another "day to day" extravaganza to start the season.

And there is also the question of can a 30 year old NFL safety ever return close to his old form, coming off another major injury to his foot, and having only played in three games during the past two seasons.

007 01-25-2019 07:34 PM

Team needs to cut ties with him regardless . This defense needs bodies that can play. Nothing less. It's worth it even if it costs the chiefs money.

Chris Meck 01-25-2019 07:34 PM

so, i can't find anything about it, and it might be literally on a contract by contract basis, but I don't think this would qualify as a 'football injury' and if so might the insurance clause in his contract for injury be voided? Meaning that we could, indeed cut him June 1 and collect the $9.55 in cap dollars?

Who cares how much money he makes? Are you paying him?

You are just jealous he makes a lot of money. Again, no one forced the Chiefs to sign him to that big contract. The guy doesnt play QB. He's not going to play till he is 36. It is a players job to get best contract he can when negotiating. If he gets injured or cancer and doesn't live up to the contract oh well. That's the risk NFL teams take when they sign a player.

Get over it. Injuries are not a players fault!

LMAO Why do you and the other dumbasses think it's "jealousy?" I'd be happy to see the Chiefs pay him his remaining contract, in full, if we could somehow get his cap hit off the books. Unfortunately we can't, so the fact that Berry has been useless for 2 years while being one of the top 5 highest paid players on our team in a salary cap league is going to irritate people.

I'd imagine he's living about as deep in the NFL bubble as he can get right now; players, coaches, alumni, Red Coaters, charity organizers, agents, and most press people still blowing smoke up his skirt.

I'm not sure how long people have to see Berry NOT play to understand that he's done. He's finished. he will not play meaningful football again. It's over. He was a fine player, and I think he's an excellent human, his body has just endured too much and it's done with football. The financial cap aspect as it relates to the team is irritating, but you can't blame the guy because it's not like he's going to have another payday like this.

He'll probably go into coaching, and he'll be good at it, because unlike a lot of star players, he wasn't just getting by on athletic talent, he was smart, smart, smart.

But as a player, he's done.

Now he his using that smart, smart, smart to screw, screw, screw the Chiefs. He’s a stand up dude.

Haven't really followed this thread so someone else might have already brought up this point but, if Berry is going to get surgery to correct his problem, why isn't he already in the recuperating stage? He can't start recovering till after he's had the procedure and any delay makes it less likely he will contribute in any meaningful way next year. :shrug:

The delay tactic has been in play from the get-go. ALL part of Berry's plan. It's "complicated." :rolleyes:

^ He’s not feeling it well n his spirit to have the surgery. It’s been a theme to milk this shit as long as possible while continuing to get game checks.

He rolled the bones and read the tea leaves. They told him to wait until May

He was smart, smart, smart, enough to get paid. I pray he never coaches a Chiefs team because as much as he might know about playing safety on the field, but I'm not confident enough he can teach those skills, or leadership, to other players, and we can't take another chance on him being another post-contract dud.

I've seriously learned to hate this guy. Everything he's doing is a clear and obvious attempt to bleed as much money from the organization as possible. He'll schedule any surgery he gets to coincide with optimal ****age to the team and optimal benefit for him, because clearly the millions he's already been paid to be a ****ing doormat for the past two years don't count.

Resigning him will go down as one of the greatest blunders this team has ever made.

He'd certainly make a great players union adviser, wouldn't he? Well, him or whoever thinks for him.

It caught the corner of my eye immediately. The ref gave it a good ride.

After what he's done to this franchise, I hope they realize that they almost NEVER "pay" players with the exception of, maybe, the QB.

Berry should have been this franchise's wake up call that the vast majority of players, and to some extent all of them, really aren't there for the team, they're there for their paycheck. We all know that, we all say "football is a business" way too much, so "we" don't need to be reminded, we need to hope that Clark, Andy, and Veach remember it when it when a player who had a good year comes to the office with hat in hand.

And TBH, I'm not sure they should pay PH too much either. NOT BECAUSE HE ISN'T AWESOME, he's AWESOME (!!!!!), but because his O-line combined with his style isn't going to have him survive 10-12 years. So even if they take the step of paying PH, they need to be aware that he's NOT a pocket passer, part of that might be because he has no choice, but his pocket sucks.

It's WHO you pay, anyone with a half a brain would tell you a dude who's had a blown knee and went through chemo may not be the best long term investment.

He wants to make sure he can't pass a physical in the offseason so he can't be cut.

Well those were details/signs the Chiefs appear to have overlooked.

Bowser 01-26-2019 12:31 PM

So he's waiting until May to get the surgery on the Haglund's? Did he care to explain WHY he was waiting until then to do it? (no, I've not kept up with thread, obv)

You mean Clark Hunt? Cause the way all that went down I don't think Dorsey was planning on keeping him.

But Berry of course played the PR game to paint the Chiefs as assholes and then there ya go..

I've always been someone who thinks players should get all they can but as a fan of this team it chaps my ass that Eric Berry has been the highest paid player at his position since the day he walked in the league the Chiefs stood by him even paying him when they didn't have to...and now we get this.

But ultimately it's on the team. They let him play them and have continued to do it for 2 years.
