Anyone else think Priest isn't coming back?

Dr. Johnny Fever · 11-29-2004, 07:44 PM

...at least for the rest of this year? When he was injured they said it was suppossed to be a week or two..then more...now another couple of weeks more. I know, they said it's hard to tell how long it will take an MCL partial tear to heal...but why did they originally say one or two weeks if that's really the case?

When he hurt his hip we were told he'd be right back and of course he didn't come back until the next season. I have a sneaking suspicion that we're not being told the whole truth again.

Whether he's injured worse than they thought, or they're just sitting him since we're out of the playoff race and giving time to Blaylock and Johnson to see what they have for next year... I don't know... but I feel like we're being left out again... Maybe they're afraid we won't pay $20 to park and fill the stadium and buy $8 beers and $4 bottled waters if we know we're not gonna see our best player...???

It's probably another vast right-wing conspiracy.

Shouldn't you be praying that your team figures out how NOT to lose to a shitty Raiders team.. at home...when you have to win to stay in first place? Talk about a major choke job.

We may suck this year...but at least we aren't pretenders.

Heh hehe..you're gonna lose the division to the Chargers... heh, heh, heh...

I will thank you. I'm heading out now for the annual "100 beer night" at a local watering hole that some friends have while watching MNF.

Yes...the Chiefs suck...bt at least we don't wear a gay color like orange.

(It's the best I've got right now...)

Yep. He never learns. We'll all be used to our fate and hopefully we'll get to tell him the same after the Broncos leave ARROWHEAD in a few weeks! :thumb

Let him score 8 touchdowns against Denver and then let him rest for the rest of the year. Actually I would just rest him for next year, which is an odd year, AFC West Champion lose in first playoff game at Arrowhead year.

MonroeChief · 11-29-2004, 07:53 PM

By not letting out whether he will play it will always keep the opposition guessing.

I would rather him sit out for the rest of the year and be 100% next year. From what I'm seeing this year is a bust and why risk further or more serious injury when we have nothing to gain.

If he needs surgery to repair the minor tear, I'd go for that now. With the work ethic that Priest has, he will be working out far in advance of the rest of the team getting ready for the next season. By then we should have addressed the defensive side of the line.

For those of you that are calling for DV and CP to be fired. Go suck a brick. Do you not remember what the Chiefs were like before CP came to town? 16 years of football that could have been challenged by most college teams and some high school teams. CP may not be perfect, but what he brought was respectability to the Chiefs, something that had been missing for many years.

I still believe in the system.

Hey noob

Believe in the system? What system? King Carl's? 6 losing seasons in 7 years under 3 different coaches? Yep, that reeks of confidence.

Check out the combined w/l record from 1972-1988. Then check out the record from 1989-2004 (assume we lose the remaining games of the season). From '72-'88 we had no hope of winning games. Currently we always have a chance, is CP responsible for the guys on the field not getting the job done? Has your wife ever been almost pregnant? It's the same thing. In my opinion you can go

yourself.

The system???

What system? Missing the playoffs for 6 of the past 7 years! Three playoff wins in 17 years?

I stopped giving Carl a pass years ago. I'd bet that most good GM's could have come to KC and could have produced better on the field talent and wins than CP has since '98. But a GM's job is also about filling the stands and that' why CP is still in charge. So, in a way, he is the best GM in the NFL to still have a job with his poor track record.
