Which leads to the question of whether they are taking it easy on him early on with the shoulder thing he had to recover from this offseason...

I am guessing something like this

Another reason why I posted the screencap.

I am more worried about Leinart's mind set, he hasn't gotten any touches since joining the chiefs.

Are you sure? Brass brought in Jones who has gotten the lions share of the carries. And they also spent a high 2nd round pick on McCluster. And when McCluster is in the game, we are seeing him at RB... which is where he was a game breaker at Ole Miss... and not at slot receiver where we all thought we were going to see him. Do you really think the brass wants to keep their expensive shiny new toy in storage?

There's a lot of wisdom in it, actually. When I look back to my time here, the threads I started inevitably were "fail" until I learned a little bit more about how this place runs.

What I don't understand is how this is a blatent misuse of Charles.

It's 2 games into the season. He's received over 10 touches each game. The team is 2-0. Thomas Jones is also a pretty good back, not Charles, but pretty good. It's not like Jackie Battle is getting carries over JC.

It's not some conspiracy to keep Charles out of the game. There's no vendetta like some want to proclaim.

[QUOTE=Coogs;7025110]I saw this one comming. Check out post #45

If this happens I hope BCD shits on Pioli's desk as he promised.

**Shogun** · 09-21-2010, 12:53 PM

Its a process

Marcellus · 09-21-2010, 12:53 PM

We can't even have a 2-0 start without the reeruned KC media trying to stir up shit.

So far it's about 34 touches to 24 touches. Not like it's a huge difference

Charles is acting like a little kid who isn't getting his way.

Grow up dude.

What if that pick is parlayed into getting a franchise QB to go along with the rest of the pieces that are being assembled into a pretty decent team? Make no mistake about it McCluster is a damn good RB. Charles is too. But there isn't room for two of the same type back, and McCluster is the one Pioli brought in and Charles is the one Herm brought in. Just sayin'.

If he's really worried about his carries when the team is winning games, then maybe the benching as an educational tool (which I don't actually think is happening) might not be the wrong move. I've always been lead to believe that that was part of the reason DJ had to sit, to motivate him to learn to play within the scheme and stop going into business for himself and that's exactly the same message they've worked so hard to get across to Bowe over the last year, with the "stats only matter if you're winning" conversation.

And I've never actually heard Charles say anything that makes me think he's not a team player above all else.
