Chiefs Barry Richardson - Page 10

Dude sucks. He was the main reason the offense went into the toilet today. Couldn't run block, couldn't pass block. Got his ass whipped 1 on 1 all day.

And Matt Cassel should have been pulled in September 2009.

It's a double standard and HURT the drive.

Richardson wasn't pulled for making THAT mistake. He was pulled for making numerous mistakes prior to that in this game and the week before.

Moeaki made 1 mistake.

What the hell about that is so hard to understand? It wasn't about 1 play.

Richardson was terrible, but on the one play he was out, O'Callaghan totally blew his assignment, which caused a jailbreak on Cassel.

What? JFC, you're a ****ing football reerun.

You're seriously stating that Richardson was pulled because he made mistakes last week when he started at left tackle? A game in which the Chiefs scored 42 points?

Sure. THAT'S why he was pulled.

So, genius, why was he back in the game on the next series?

'Hamas' Jenkins · 12-05-2010, 07:12 PM

One of the reasons why he was back in is b/c Ryan O'Callaghan is so ****ing bad. Watch the 4th down replay again. He crashes down on Lilja's man, leaving the LB who was on his right shoulder with a completely free run to the QB.

Which is EXACTLY why he should not have been pulled in the first place.

O'Failagain is completely awful. And while Richardson struggled mightily against Haggans again, the Chiefs coaching staff didn't do much to help him out.

No, I'm you. He was clearly struggling. But Haley needs to gauge his team's "mood" better. After the penalties by Moeaki & Richardson, Haley should have called a timeout, calmed everyone down, THEN gone for it on 4th.

It was a cluster**** and if he pulls a stunt like that in the playoffs, it could cost the Chiefs dearly.

And O'Failagain blows.

Going for it on 4th was stupid....3 points is all we needed to be up by two scores...

It had major implications throughout the rest of the game.

Take the 3 there all day long when you're up by 7.

Absolutely. I was an unnecessary risk in an important divisional game.

But, if you're going to go for it in a situation where there have been two penalties during that set of downs, call a time out.

Or better yet, call a time out and then come to the realization that going for it on 4th down in that situation is completely insane

The stats disagree with you, the expected outcome of going for it on 4th and short at the goal line is 4 pts. I'll take the aggressive play call in goal to go he just needs to be smarter about managing the team. Clearly everyone was distracted by what went on with Richardson--which is the part that sucks about it, but I'll still take it as long as it means we got a RT with a mean streak--and he should recognize that.

You need to read up on situational awareness. In a vacuum, going for it on 4th and goal is a smart move, but when 3 points gets you a two possession lead in the second half of a low scoring game, you're a goddamned fool not to take the points.

Well my personal logic disagrees with the stats in that case...as I think the vast majority of coaches in the NFL would. I will take the guaranteed 3 points over a risk..for only a 1 point theoretical gain....just my own opinion. Especially when those 3 points put you up by 10. That theoretical 1 point can suck my cock at that point in the game.

Similar to why I wouldnt go for 2 points every single TD, but thats just me.

Again, the TV broadcast did not show that series of events correctly. They showed a REPLAY of Barry pushing the coach but did not show the entire tantrum down the sideline and the coach running after him.

As for the exact reason they wound up pulling him back after having ran after him, maybe they thought it was too late, maybe they had decided they didn't want him in there in that state of mind, I don't know.

I say again, the point I'm really trying to push here, and I think anybody that was at the game can attest to this, is that the sideline was a mess at that moment. They looked confused, and many of the coaches and players were worried about Richardson instead of the big 4th down play that was coming up. All I've been trying to say is they should have called a timeout to settle things down rather than go out there and shit on themselves like they did.

I think of this way a little bit, too. Everybody around me in my section saw the same thing I did and were all focused more on Richardson than the actual 3rd and 4th down plays. So were many of the coaches and players. It was a messy sideline and it turned into a messy play at a big time. It all started because of a tantrum.

Guys,

DRU has it exactly right. All of you guys that were watching the game on TV need to shut the fuck up and listen to him.

I was sitting in section 342 and I was staring at Barry Richardson the entire time that all of this BS went on. I saw him get pulled from the game after he got called for the penalty when the Chiefs were inside the 5 yard line and about to score. I saw him shove the assistant coach. Then another player got in his face (I couldn't see who the player was), and Richardson shoved him too. He was completely out of control, and it sounds like the TV cameras didn't capture this at all. I saw Richardson run away from everyone, and at the time I said to my son "Are they sending him to the locker room?".

I saw the coach run after Richardson and yell something to him. I saw Richardson turn around and start to sprint back onto the field, but he was about 75 yards away from the line of scrimmage, and I told my son "No, look, he's running back onto the field, but he's never going to make it".

They wanted Richardson in there for the 4th down play, but he was too busy making a total jackass out of himself. He may be the best option at right tackle right now, but he let the team down on that play. I'm glad it didn't cost them the game.

Complete and utter bullshit.

The coaching staff should have called a timeout, not pulled Richardson for ONE PLAY.

Oh wait wait. So Richardson gets a pass because he's only a third year guy, but Tyson Jackson is Ryan Smis Jr. in only his second season.

Got it. Great hypocrisy there.
