Leggett Chosen by Fellow Players as Chiefs' Rookie of the Year

Chiefs’ awards go to Gonzalez, Leggett

Quote:

Few things involving the Chiefs and their recently concluded 2-14 season could be more expected than tight end Tony Gonzalez being selected as their most valuable player.

Few things could be more of a surprise than the choice of cornerback Maurice Leggett as their rookie of the year.

The Chiefs on Monday announced the winners of their annual postseason awards. They were voted on by Chiefs players and the players will be honored at the annual 101 Banquet on March 7.

Gonzalez was one of the Chiefs’ few bright spots. He had one of the best seasons of his 12-year career, catching 96 passes for 1,058 yards and 10 touchdowns. Next month he will play in his 10th consecutive Pro Bowl game in Hawaii.

Despite that, Gonzalez had never before been selected as Chiefs MVP.
The Chiefs had four rookie starters this season in cornerbacks Brandon Flowers and Brandon Carr, defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey and offensive tackle Branden Albert. But players opted for Leggett, who played mostly on special teams until becoming the third cornerback midway through the season.

Leggett scored a couple of touchdowns, recovering an Oakland fumble and returning it 67 yards in a November victory and intercepting a Denver pass and returning it 27 yards in a December defeat.

To Leggett’s teammates, those plays were apparently more important than steady play from Flowers and Carr and the promise of a bright future from Albert.
Wow. This D may be a pass rusher and a MLB away from turning things around. I know that sounds presumptuous, but with all these great young players, you'd think that pressure on the QB and a real sho 'nuff run stuffer at Mike Backer would make these young DBs really shine. They are sooooo green and yet most of us admit that they excelled in takeaways and are only in their first season. With better Safety play (ahem) and MLB play (ahem) and a Jared Allen-like DE, these young guys will just get better and better. No wonder Herm is so confident.

I think that between FA and the high draft picks (not to mention dealing LJ) this franchise may be able to pull in some key players that will tell the real value of these young studs as they learn the pro game and develop.

Congrats to Tony Gonzalez - WAY overdue award.

Some of you guys are taking this shit to the nipple. Flowers probably voted for legget. Flowers gets his props everywhere. Legget is a nobody. The team is just giving him his dues since he won't get any recognition anywhere else, not even on his own teams Fan's biggest BB.

Some of you pull negative statements out of your ass just to hate on these young players.

Get over it!

Once again, Mr. Thomas Jenkins leads a chorus of groupthink editorials dismissing the team, its leadership and the FO in favor his assertions of 'superior knowledge'.

Begs the question, if you are so damned smart about all things Chiefs, why are you wasting your time on the bulletin board instead of the practice field or the FO?

This is an award bestowed by the players on a peer for whatever standard of achievement they deem worthy. We are outsiders looking in with speculation and not privvy to the rationale behind the voting.

Spirit, attitude and heart matter in sports, which is completely lost on scoffers like Mr. Jenkins. Those that delight in mocking others are themselves the eventual target of their own scorn.

Congrats to all 18 rookies!

I've watched 5x more football than these 24 year olds. I can see the game from my couch much better than they can on the sideline. They are myopic insiders that can't manage to have a night on the town without a visit to the police station. Many of them can't manage their check book. After they are retired they will go on the network TV as part of the talking head crew and we will all deride their football opinions. There is nothing at all sacred about their opinions.

I'm probably the only person ON THIS BOARD with a #24 jersey that doesn't say "Law" on the back, but I'm not gonna' bash the selection of Leggitt; he was responsible for at least ONE "I'm the reason the momentum shifted, and the Chiefs won this game"-play this year.

Had we beaten NYJ, it would be a different story.

The Chiefs' rookie of the year award is the Mack Lee Hill award. It goes "to the rookie who best exemplifies the spirit of the late Mack Lee Hill".

Hill was an undrafted rookie FA. So was Leggett.

There might be something to this.

I agree, we have some dimwits on the team-that won't keep Johnny from swallowing the Kool-aid, though..

If he and Tony truly feel that way, I'll be MORE than happy to take the assignment.

I've defended Tony a lot, but I will NOT defend THAT horseshit.

Schedule the meeting; let's do this thing.

P.S. EBE's dead.
