Can We Reverse The Dunn to IR Decision?
 

Can they take him off the IR or did Carl just screw us big time?

It is my understanding that once you are on IR, you cannot play anymore that season. If players could be moved off IR, teams would be using IR to keep a deeper roster for a given year.

nope, he's done.

King Carl screws us once again.

We could cut him and sign him again, of course then you take a risk with waivers and what not.

No way he'd make it past waivers.

though Dunn is one of my favorite Chiefs, we did well without him last week and we will make due without him in Indy.

I believe Herm said he will require surgery so i dun think so.

This is true. And the Jags have a top rated D. So maybe some silver lining there.

How did Carl screw anybody? If he's on IR, he's HURT. How is he of use to use if he's HURT?

Dunn allegedly told JWhit that he's played with it for six weeks and could have played four more... it was a mistake to put him on IR, but CP apparently was certain we were done for the year.

Yeah I agree it is a huge loss, but with the way we did against the Jags D-Line I think we will be fine. The Jags D-Line is way better than the Colts, the only need to worry about that decision is if we win and face SD, we would need him there.

Carl could have waited til later to smack him in the back with the baseball bat. ;)

From Whitlock's article... http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansas...s/16363662.htm

When Dunn left Arrowhead, he told me that assistant general manager Denny Thum told him that the Chiefs regretted placing Dunn on IR and they wouldn’t have done it if they thought they were going to qualify for the playoffs.

Dunn was visibly disappointed.

“I could play four more games,” said Dunn, who admitted he’ll undergo surgery this offseason. “I’ve been playing with it.”

Bob Dole was under the impression that the claiming period ended with the conclusion of the regular season.

But assuming it doesn't, is the waiver system open to all clubs or only those clubs playing in the postseason. If it's limited to only those teams playing in the postseason, we'd get first shot at claiming anyone off waivers.

Wouldn't THAT be a sweet loophole?
