Chiefs Another Eric Berry Thread - Page 3

EB should have never been in that game. Im not entirely sure how many plays he was in there and Lucas wasn't, but Berry was absolutely terrible. He was completely owned by a slow broken Gronk.

The biggest play that sticks out to me was Berry being lined up against Gronk and I believe it was the Pats final drive or maybe one of the 3rd and 10s in OT. Berry allows Gronk to run a post or dig route (I'm not too knowledgeble on different routes played O-line and D-line lol) because he was trying to take away the deep ball and allows Brady to throw for an easy 1st down. So Berry was afraid Gronk was going to burn him down the field? Why was Lucas not on Gronk? Berry is no longer an all pro player hell he isnt even average. Hes pretty ****ing terrible if he cant even keep up with slow ass Gronk.

I seriously need an education on this issue. I hear people all the time say it will be too expensive to cut him etc. I just take it for granted that they know what they're talking about. Would love to be able to offer a reasonable alternative as to how it could be done and not be all THAT devastating.

Eric Berry could be cut post 6-1 with some modest cap savings. Now Justin Houston's cap number is huge with not that much dead money left. No way we keep him at his current number. Allen Bailey is a free agent. I think there might be major changers on the D.

The Dorsey firing should tell you our owner is 0% transparent about his shortcomings.

Fine with just about everyone, I'd imagine.

Still pisses me off. Without Berry in there I am 99% sure we win this game.

Not a fan of the Berry-Go-Round?

Yeah, while it hasn’t hit Larry Johnson level of “get the **** off my team” we are venturing down that path.

I said this in another thread:

There was no reason under God to start this guy. None. The defense had finally begun to turn the corner and at the right time, things were flowing.

And then Reid goes and pulls his best Marty/Grbac move before the most important game of the season? **** that.

It's sad that EB has gone from being the most respected player in the last 10 or so years, to a guy that anyone with a head on their shoulders KNOWS needs to be gone. Out of the building. Goodbye.

It's really infuriating when fans can see clearly what these coaches and others, who are PAID to be on top of this kind of shit, can not. How does this kind of shit even happen? And in Berry's case, what exactly do they think they're going to gain from this guy just hanging around the facility and performing pep talks? As a coach, isn't it your obligation to put your team in the best possible position to succeed?

And if they have any future plans for EB, why isn't he on his way to the operating table yesterday? This is complete bullshit and I just want it to end. To be over. Thank you EB, and goodbye.
