Absolutely true.
The thing that I wonder about, is this a true indication that he can be a #1 HB ala Stephen Davis or is this just an aberration. I am somewhat afraid it is an aberration and the Chiefs will assume the opposite and for another year do nothing about the RB situation. |

TRich could have done this all year and rushed for well over 1000 yards IMO.
All he needed was a chance. [This message has been edited by Cannibal (edited 12-10-2000).] |

He had a real nice game. However, he was untouched at the LOS for most of those 8+ yard gains. I don't think it had everything to do with our O-line play either. The panthers have a real bad run D. I don't wanna take anything away from Tony R but at the same time, I'd like to keep everything in perspective.

Props to TRich today. I think that he will fit the RB position just fine, if they leave him there. KPhobia, sure the Panthers have a bad run D, but he has come through this season when needed. I think that he will continue to do the same. [b]But, they have to leave him in the game[/b]. He has to establish himself, and get in a rythem. If this happens, you have your #1 RB, and don't have to waste a draft pick on another RB.

Tony definitely looked sharp today. Leaves ya wondering what might have been had he been getting the ball 15-20 times a game all year, huh?
IMO the Chiefs have not necessarily been needing a dominant running back. Our passing game is ready to carry the load, and has shown that pretty clearly. While a marquee back would obviously be swell, all we have really been lacking all year is somebody to establish a consistent presence on the ground.... someone to make the opposing D play honest and who can consistently gain solid yards. Mark- is wondering what might have been. |

Bob Dole is still trying to recover from the shock of seeing a Kansas City Chief in the list of top 10 rushers on Sunday...

TRich DEFINITELY gets a game ball. But I'm kinda with KPhobia on this one; don't get too excited 'cuz that Carolina D is pretty soft. The Chiefs O-line was blowing their D off of the line of scrimmage. I love the way TRich plays the game(hard-nosed, punishing runner) but the fumble makes me worry what would happen over the course of a season if he was the feature back. TRich's biggest downfall is that he can't block for himself. Maybe a TRich/Cloud FB/RB combo?
Nice to get off 'da schnide though, hmmm? rh :mad: [This message has been edited by redhed (edited 12-11-2000).] |

Bob Dole especially enjoyed one second half Carolina blitz where the linebacker came through and appeared to run into a wall. The guy was full-speed and bounced of Tony about 2 yards when they collided.
