Nap, where is Vermeil on record saying that T-Rich will be the primary back in singleback sets?
It's not in the TSN article from which your link took Teicher's information and I don't recall reading anything like that in any of his articles in the Star in the last month. There's also no indication of it anywhere on the Chiefs website.
In any case, we should find out some more in a couple of weeks at the second mini-camp, and eventually when these guys actually do some work in pads. The way it look right now, everything points to a position where the best guy earns the job, regardless of whether it's Holmes or Richardson, or Moreau or me. Well, me if I could run more than 6 feet without hyper-ventilating. ;)
Like I said before, that's the way it should be...
Holmes wasn't wasted money unless he doesn't pan out, so that's a moot discussion at this point. Garner was never a real option, at least the way it looks to me. I doubt he would have been willing to move to the midwest without more $$$$ being involved: this ain't the bay area, Gruden doesn't coach here and we're sure as heck not coming off a trip to the AFC Championship.
Let's see what we have before we waste time lamenting what could'a been...
