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.

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.

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...

ChiefFripp · 11-29-2004, 07:50 PM

Let him get some time to really heal, this season is blown anyways. He'll be good for another 2 seasons at the least .

Let him sit. The playoff picture is through and he doesn't have a chance of getting his personal goals now that he has missed several games (Well, I think it is highly unlikely). Let him recover and hopefully he has a bit of drive to come back and try to earn his own SB Ring.

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.

We may be 3-8, but at least we aren't 7-4.

Have another one on me buddy.

Demonpenz · 11-29-2004, 07:55 PM

he's freaking collecting a check, he should be out there, and the way we are paying him he should get 35 carries a game.

ROYC75 · 11-29-2004, 07:58 PM

PH is out for the Oakland game.

DV said so, plus he was in the booth because they can only have so many players on the sideline and they didn't want anybody running into him on the sidelines.

**Rain Man** · 11-29-2004, 07:58 PM

If he doesn't need surgery, it'd sure be nice to see him back, as much from a team confidence viewpoint as from a production viewpoint.

If he needs surgery, then he should obviously sit out the rest of the season and come back strong next year when we make our Super Bowl run.

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...)

I say he sits. May as well let Blaylock and Johnson fight it out and we keep the winner!
