That approach, I believe, would necessarily fall under the category of "Most Asinine Coaching Decisions Of All Times", Mr. GoChiefs.

We are, for some reason and by some unknowable miracle of fate, very deep at RB this year - and some of those guys can burn. I think Herm and the mysterious and inscrutable Chan need to rotate in the speed guys as often as possible in order to A) Keep LJ's legs fresh and B) Force the enemy D to run their asses all over the place. If they ration our remarkable running back resource properly, it could make an enormous difference in the performance of both our offense and defense as well as contribute to a much better overall record come season's end.

I'd say you have to leave the Bears offense out of the whole deal they actually make us look like the colts. the Cardinals, by far not a good team, have some play makers this is more what we can expect. lots of recievers open over the middle and big plays capable at any second.

IIRC, the Cardinals starters had gained less than 100 yards before halftime.

We gave up 86 yards in the first half against Arizona.

like i said the cards aren good ust have some playmakers. It'll be worse when teams gameplan and go after the Chiefs. Look I'm not doomin and gloomin we are rebuilding and very very young i'm on board but also realistic its going to be ugly at times.

It did. That was their only drive worth a shit.

By the way, the Cards had the league's 12th ranked offense a year ago. 25 points a game. Not exactly horrible.

We had two good 12-play drives against their defense and our defense more than held it's own. We get the ball into the end zone once or god forbid twice and people around here are jumping for joy.

Our 2nd string was also in at the beginning of the 2nd qrtr.

Even with those 400+ carries he is still a low mileage back. He didn't play that much in college.

Except for the fact that his injury had nothing to do with "wear and tear" from getting too many carries. If he had 20 carries the year before, that play would have sidelined him for the season. I know what you mean, but cmon that injury had nothing to do with carrying it 400 times the year before.

Uh, the Cards were 4-5, 3 and out drives with the first team in I believe. Hardly outplayed. And that was with their best QB in. It's not like the first team D did that against a POS like Lienart. There was a legit NFL QB in.

:rolleyes: He's had plenty of time to rest up and heal. You had a point last year but I don't think the 400 carry excuse carries over if you sit out 9 games the previous year.
