Cutting Pollard outright is a mistake. They're putting far too much faith in Mike Brown staying healthy. Something he hasn't been often in recent years. Pollard could've been traded. A 5th or 6th Round pick for a young, serviceable Safety isn't too much to ask. Pollard will begin fielding calls here very shortly. He can play in this league.

Lelie? Can't say that I understand this one either. He should've been one of just two candidates for the starting WR job opposite of Bowe. They're counting on Bradley dodging the injury bug. He hasn't been real successful at that during his NFL career. This is a pretty big gamble. Besides Bowe/Bradley you have no one else on this roster you can count on to produce. Engram's been a non-factor all off-season. Someone get me Matt Jones' number.

Darryl Harris had been one of the most consistent Offensive Linemen on the team. Can't say that I know why he was walked. If there's any position along the O-Line where we have more questions than answers (besides RT) it's RG. He should've been able to stick there. As if the Offensive Line depth wasn't paper thin already.

They had better get busy. This team doesn't look better after the cutdown to 53. It looks worse.

Again, Brown's health is irrelevant. If he gets hurt, in comes Morgan, who showed a lot more than Pollard this preseason, no question.

Considering whats been going on with Page I wouldn't be surprised if Morgan played FS which he's more suited to do anyhow...

what has been going on with paige?

Morgan looked really good in the Lambs game, glad to see they kept Belcher at LB.

Tony Pashos from jacksonville should command some interest.

While undersized, thought Lokey held up better at NT than the other guys....oh well, wont miss any of those guys.

ROFL Yep. I was hoping that Ashley Lelie would make it. He looked like he played well enough to do so, especially when you consider the lack of talent at WR.

What's wrong with colin brown? I thought Lelie looks better than most our receivers.

Tyree could take Copper's spot. He's kind of a Danan Hughes type WR, can cover kicks/punts but he is a better WR.

Cox, I want a new FB. He has good hands but no speed. to slow to cover kicks. Titans cut Casey Kramer 6'2 250 good lead blocker and good special teams tackler.

the McBride/Walters spot could go to a Darryl Blackstock who started out in AZ and could backup Tamba as he has some pass rush ability, or Travis Laboy if/when he gets healthy. or the Smith kid that the eagles cut the 3rd rounder last year.

5th CB spot, Coclough is an upgradeable spot.

Ryan is the best blocking TE, i could see a new guy to bring in there to replace Jake O'connel or Cottam.

Battle has been a good special teams guy and a tough runner i just think he lacks vision.

Oline is obviously not set and their are a few supprise cuts there, Forney and Merideth.

A nt to upgrade Edwards and a End to upgrade Gillberry is a possiblility too.

at ILB i worry about deep drops and poor coverage. Demo Williams sticks for that maybe as a Nickel LB.

I think the Page being shopped stuff from Bill Williamsons blog on ESPN was BS.

He source the National Football post story which stated Brown was brought in to push pollard and page. That Pollard was being shopped not Page.

I normally agree with your football posts, but not on this occassion. It was time to cut the chaff and that's what the coaches did. I trust their judgement as they work with the players everyday. Pollard missed the boat. The others will be replaced and this will be a better team than the last two years. Yeah, there's a few surprises there, but cuts have to be made. Evolution...

Wow, Lelie couldn't even make it on to the Chiefs this year. I'm starting to feel a little sorry for him.

Tony Pashos cut by Jags per PFT

Eventually we are all going to realize that this regime's method of evaluating players is quite a bit different from, a) the way we evaluate from our couches, and, b) the way other teams do.

he's our guy. get him

yep. and that may not be a bad thing

both OT's Wesley Britt and Ryan O'Callohan from the Pats cut

who played on the right for them?

Can't say I'm shocked about the Pollard cut. Looks like Haley and company were impressed enough with McGraw and Morgan in St. Louis compared to Pollard's shitty play vs Seattle.

www.rotoworld.com

Patriots waived OT Ryan O'Callaghan and S/WR Ray Ventrone.

O'Callaghan didn't have a bad camp, but second-round pick Sebastian Vollmer passed him to be New England's No. 3 offensive tackle. O'Callaghan could probably start for the Chiefs right away.

O'Callohan. 6'7 335

Yea let's get Matt Jones's number...for what? So we can call and ask him what it's like to play for a winning team like the Titans?

damn thats a big dude, sign him too. **** it we need to sign 3-4 oline players

Our starting right tackle is out there somewhere......

Hopefully Harris goes unclaimed and we stick him onthe PS and bump him to the 53 when we get C and RG figured out and the backup spots. Dane is right, he is one of the top 2 guards for us this TC and the best at getting out to pull and lead. Dissapointed to see him cut, hope he clears waivers.

FYP

Philadelphia released last year's third-round pick, defensive end Bryan Smith, who might be better suited at linebacker in a 3-4 defense. ~ Adam Schefter

i hope we sign like ****ing 10 new guys and cut 10 more goons

Some guy named Meredith got axed by Green Bay.

Keep that in mind when the Chiefs go 1-15 or 0-16 this season

Oh my god, just stop. 1-15 is ludicrous and 0-16 is fantasy.

weird. i thought the season was just about to start. i didnt know it was over already

go away

your not being a "realist" your being an ass.

it like you want the chiefs to lose JUST so u can say "i told you so"

Really?

Just who do you think the Chiefs outscore?

Gee, I'm sorry I wounded your precious labia with my words.

Even with the cluster **** of a team we had last year we won 2 games and were competitive in many other. We're not going 1-15 or 0-16 you fucking idiot.

Raiders, Broncos. At least once each. That makes at least two wins. So how do you get 1-15 or 0-16? Do you really think the Raiders and Broncos can both beat us twice?

never mind i see his name now

They didn't teach you how to spell ****ing in JuCo, superstar?

LMAO

Yeah, claiming that this is a 1 win team is a huge, huge stretch. If Herm Edwards can lead a roster just as bad as this one to 2 wins, a blind ****ing monkey could do the same.

I understand the whole "the sky is falling" mentality around here, but that's just nuts.

shit gets old fast man give it up.

this isnt "****-the-chiefs" planet

Raiders twice, Broncos maybe twice, Bengals, Browns.

*edit Oh and maybe Jacksonville, with their 4,000 fans in attendance.

When you have to resort to playing the role of grammar po-po I know I've already won.

And I spelled fucking like that so that it wasn't ****** out dumbass. You truly are a fucking moron.

This.

Just remember, moves made today likely aren't made for this years team. This season is a wash regardless of what moves they make today.

thats danes exit route when he knows hes beat. that or the predictable **** you...

You didn't win shit in JuCo football and you sure as hell aren't "winning" anything now, Asswipe Superstar.

Go fuck Yourself.

No, it's not.

Have you LOOKED at the schedule? Better yet, have you watched this team even once? They ARE worse than last season. They subtracted 1,000 yards receiving and 10 TD's and didn't replace them. They're trying to fit square pegs in round holes defensively. Their offensive line is a ****ing sieve and the $63 million dollar QB didn't even make it past 3 plays in the third game.

So many of you guys just aren't realistic in regards to your expectations.

Talk about nuts.

Well that was predictable.

And 1-15 is realistic? Dumbest ****ing thing ever written here.

Games *I* think we will or at least can outscore the opponent.

Wk 2 Oakland
Wk 10 Oakland
Wk 13 Denver
Wk 14 Buffalo
Wk 15 Cleveland
Wk 16 Cincinnati

Games we have an outside shot to win

Wk 1 Baltimore
Wk 6 Washington
Wk 7 San Diego
Wk 9 Jacksonville
Wk 17 Denver

Games which I will JIMP if we win

Wk 3 Philly
Wk 4 New York
Wk 5 Dallas
Wk 11 Pittsburgh
Wk 12 San Diego

And there he goes! lol good reading material, you guys keep talking back to Dane. I enjoy this.

i think we have a better chance at beating dallas than baltimore

Ya, i think we will win a few games, we wont be close to 500, but we will win 3-5 i would say. lol

We're going to get spanked at Baltimore. Opening day in their house with the O-line in flux and either Brodie or Thigpen at QB. Recipe for disaster. However we will beat the Raiders the next week to start the season 1-1.

the defense looks miles better than last year.
larry looks better than last year.
the line(in the last game) looked as good if not better than last year.
we have a hc with a brain now
the fade havent got any better. thats 2 wins.
denver.....1-2 wins
san diego games are winnable. ask thigpen.
cinci is winnable
buffalo is winnable
jax is winnable

nancy

Probably then they have Eagles Giants back to back which is ugly.

So, Brown got sent to IR and Meredith got cut............

and then we will lose the next 6 games

Oh, just **** off.

For someone who touts themselves as having any type of insight, you really don't know jackshit.

Cockbag.

dane = know it all pr*ck = brock. but you're not gonna shut em' up, so just try to get under their skin a little.

Good for you, Dude.

I hope you're right and I'm wrong.

Luke Mccown traded to the Jags so there goes any shot of trading thiggy for a 7th rounder

Yes, I have. And I've also watched enough NFL games to know that teams luck into 2-3 wins each year simply by having decent coaching, which I think we have.

I'll take Tony Gonzalez out of the equation if it means that I was able to also subtract Herman Edwards and Gunther.

Not realistic? There's one team in NFL history that went winless. One. Yet, you think that this team could 'realistically' not win a game.

Give me a break with that nonsense. I'll let games be played before I start talking about square holes and round pegs.

When should we find out if the chiefs claim guys on waivers?

Players face waivers for 24 hours before they can re-sign with their teams. I can't recall whether or not Sundays count, but that's your time frame.

Thats what I was thinking. If the coaching abortion we had for the past few years managed to grease out a few wins goatboy could probably do it by using his Star Wars action figures to diagram game plans every week.

I damn sure don't expect to be watching any post season play but for this team to go 0-16 or 1-15 would be a complete failure of every aspect of the franchise. I just don't see that happening and I'd bet at least 80% of the people who follow football would agree.

Who knows? Maybe whats driving some of the doom and gloom crowds opinion has nothing to do with football whatsoever. Some people naturally look for and expect the worst in things.

Oh well, it doesn't matter anyway. They can think and post what they want it doesn't affect me. Water off a ducks back.

JAMON MEREDITH GOT CUT!

You know Jamon Meredith, the single greatest OL prospect in the whole ****ing draft?????

How can this type of injustice exist in the world today?

Jamon Meredith is/was Wille Roaf x100000.

This is just ****ing crazy man. It really really is.

We should just fire our new GM anyway. He's an overrated assclown for not knowing that Jamon Meredith was almost god like in every possible way!!!!111111111!!!!!111!1!!!!

Yeah, it's almost impossible to go 0-16 in the NFL. It takes a rare combination of bad talent and bad coaching. If this team could win two games with Herm Edwards....

I think Vegas has the season total for the Chiefs at 6.5 which seems about right.

The line is 5.5, not 6.5.

I voted in the other thread that they'll be 2-14. The point is that 1-15 isn't out of the realm of reason and there's probably a 5% chance they could go 0-16, especially if Cassel misses a significant amount of the season.

You know what's so ridiculous about the people that attack me for thinking the Chiefs will win 2 games or less?

I have multiple reasons for my reasoning. Those who disagree have none.

No one has told me how we're going to replace 1,000 yards receiving and 10 TD's.

No one's told me how we're going to stop the run, especially up the middle.

No one's told me how we're going to run the ball, score in the red zone and protect the QB with this offensive line.

No one's told me who's going to successfully return kicks and punts.

There are a TON of reasons why the Chiefs won't have a successful season. But there are many people that dispute that without any reasoning.

Unicorns and rainbows.

you just love that slogan of yours. make some tshirts.

And there is about a 5% they win 11 games. So what.

I think if they can find a way to keep Cassel healthy, then they will win 5 or 6 games.

1. Our division is weak
2. I think the run game will be improved


If we cant keep Cassel healthy then yes, we most likely will only win 2 games.

Considering your obsession with me, I'm surprised you're not wearing one right now.

That's your opinion and you're certainly entitled to it. I just happen to disagree.

FWIW, isn't that why we're all here? To talk football?

Who gives a **** Dane? People bashed me for pointing out how shitty the o-line is. People also bashed my for what I said about Mike Brown and now look whos the starter.

I'd agree thats an accurate statement but to put it in perspective theres probably a 5% chance that any one of a dozen teams could go 0-16 and a 2 or 3 % chance any of the rest of them could go winless.
On the other hand theres probably 2 or 3 % chance the Chiefs will win the SuperBowl. Not that much difference either way when you look at both ends of the scale.
Just a suggestion brother but when the glass is half full life in general is so much better.

Absolutely. Alot of guys lose site of the fact that of why we are all here in the first place:

We are all Chiefs fans and all want the team to succeed.

1.haleys offense isnt going to utilize the te so the first argument is almost a nonfactor. you act as if we dont have tony we will never have 1000yds and 10 tds ever again.

I've just received a call from Scott Pioli....I'm being sent to the Chiefs' Fans practice squad.....he said something about a 'lost burst'
