Teicher: Bills never intended to hurt Berry last season
Coach: Bills never intended to hurt Berry last season
By ADAM TEICHER The Kansas City Star Buffalo coach Chan Gailey said the Bills didn’t intend to injure Chiefs safety Eric Berry in last year’s game between the teams. Bills wide receiver Stevie Johnson leveled Berry with a cut block at the knees on one of the first plays of last year’s game, which was the season opener. The result was a torn ACL that ended Berry’s season. Berry later tweeted that he thought the Bills were out to get him, though he subsequently said he was only joking. The Chiefs and Bills play one another again Sunday in Buffalo. “I hate he feels that way because there was never any intention,’’ Gailey said Wednesday. “We never talked about it. It was never even discussed. Our guys were just hustling and trying to make blocks. It was unfortunate it happened. He’s a great player and I’m glad to see him back on the field.’’ Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said he believed Berry was over the incident. “I know Eric has mentioned that last year, during the offseason, I think it was,’’ Crennel said. “He hasn’t mentioned anything this year other than trying to win the game. “I don’t think Eric has difficulty going up against anybody. He enjoys the game. He wants to play the game and he wants to play it at a high level.’’ Meanwhile, outside linebacker Tamba Hali will return to practice Wednesday. He didn’t play in the Chiefs’ season-opening loss to Atlanta because he was serving a one-game suspension for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy. “I hope I see the effort he gives on every play (and) what he brings to the table as far as pass rush goes,’’ Crennel said. “I hope he hasn’t forgotten anything and that he can step right in and move right along. “The way he approaches the game and the way he plays down in and down out, that impacts the guys around him. They want to play up to the level he plays. When you get guys playing up to the level that he plays, then you can lift the team.’’ |

I am all for "an eye for an eye" especially in football, but this was not a dirty hit.
Already mentioned, but cut blocks are essential to this game. "Hit 'em low, hit 'em hard, hit 'em fast". Berry needs to watch himself. He should have known that block was coming.

I'm sure tonya Harding didn't mean to hurt Nancy Kerrigan, either.
I mean, seriously. The pos went helmet first right into Berrys knee...what's the difference between the two scenarios? |

It's a bullshit way to block outside the tackle box. Offensive lineman can do it. Guys with a full head of steam diving into someone's legs fr the side is bullshit. Why not block high? Don't be afraid of getting your dick knocked off

Eric Berry is a class act.
I bet he makes it a point to shake hands with Stevie Johnson before the game and to tell him "no hard feelings" no matter what he REALLY thinks. Then, every time Stevie goes across the middle he aims for a kill shot on him. "all part of the game, playa" |

Same as in the preseason when some chopped berry on a cutback block. It's not illegal but it's a shitty way to block

Pollard hits Brady in a similar part of the leg and a new rule gets implemented...same thing happens to a player on defense and they don't care. |

Chiefs are a soft bitch team. They're not going to even look in Stevie's direction except when he's blowing right by Reeves for 40 yards. Crush him or decapitate him? We'll be lucky if they push him out of bounds with any sort of force.
