You know if Carl was still here he would have signed Lilja in about 30 seconds.

Why's that? Because those nameless fans think Lilja has something left in the tank and could be a good lineman for the Chiefs?

And even fewer douchebags, not naming names.

Because just like last year, and every year before, there are more than a handful of members that don't perform ANY due diligence.

They see a name they're familiar with and say "Oooooooooh! We need to sign HIM".

They don't know his history, his injuries, his assets, his liabilities or his age.

It's just like ****ing Horseshack: "Oooh, Oooh, OOOH!".

Okay, but I think my previous post with the article on Lilja supports my contention that Lilja would be viable for the Chiefs. That said, maybe Pioli & company have a better plan sans Lilja. What that is, I have no idea. But considering the dearth of talent currently on the line, I think Lilja warrants serious consideration.

Why?????????????

WHY????????????????????

He's broke. He played right guard for the 32ND RUSHING TEAM.

He blocked for maybe the best passing QB in the past 30 years, with the quickest release of maybe all time.

WHAT in the world makes you think he's a good fit in KC?????????????


WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

This may be slightly off topic, but what's the contraction of Clark Hunt, and will it get past the obscenity filter?

Ooooooo. Wrong question, man.

The Colts are a passing team. To the point of being unbalanced as they had the 2nd fewest rushing ATTEMPTS in the entire NFL. They had 366 attempts compared to the league leading Jets that had 607 attempts. That's quite a difference. (Yet the Colts were ranked 12th in rushing touchdowns.) It's obvious that the Colts' coaching staff allow Manning to drive their offense. Had the Colts focused on running, they would have gaudier rushing stats.

While I appreciate your passion, Lilja started sixteen games last year and did a good job. So I don't think you can call him broken. And from what I've read and heard, the consensus from the Indy sports media is that Lilja is a good run and pass blocker with gas still in the tank.

Also, Tim Grunhard was on one of the sportstalk radio stations yesterday and was singing the praises of Lilja. No offense to you, but I'll take Grunny's opinion on this issue over yours or anyone else's that hasn't played o-line in the NFL.

So we can agree to disagree. Maybe someone will bring this up after this coming season and we'll see which one of us was right on Lilja. My bet is that Lilja plays 16 games and does just fine.

LMAO

Good to see you around, Brotha.

I think Lilja could give us solid play at a couple positions and also give us something we value and lack..versatility.

He is a better version of Wade Smith imho.

Grunhard thought that Svitek was going to be a Pro Bowler.

Grunhard is a ****ing reerun.

Based on what?

When has he EVER lined up at Center in the NFL?

When has he EVER lined up at left tackle?

When has he EVER lined up at right guard?

When has he EVER lined up at right tackle?

When has he EVER lined up at left guard?

Oh no he didn't. He was very cautious about Stivek from the beginning. Grunny coached him in NFL Europe. I very clearly remember Grunny saying that while Svitek was a stud in NFL Europe, he'd wasn't going to be an elite player in the NFL.

Now you might be thinking of someone from a prior Chiefs' coaching staff. Because they did talk Stivek up early on. But I doubt anyone mentioned "Pro Bowler". Grunny is a reerun? Wow, you're sinking fast here.

No, Grunhard was on the radio pimping Svitek as a Pro Bowler.

He "coached" him in NFL Europe and was clearly his champion.

Are you new? Do a search.
