Which Chief would you want on your pickup sandlot football team?

[Rain Man]

Here's the scenario: You and nine of your friends go out to play football on the local junior high field. After chasing off a few 13 year-old smokers, you have the field to yourself and you get a rousing game of five on five going. Since you're not wimps, this is tackle football using NFL rules. Everyone has roughly the same level of ability, which is equal to your own, and they're all more or less your size.

Suddenly, another group shows up. They have 11 guys and they were coming over to practice some plays just for fun. They're about the same size and ability level as your team.

You decide that it would be fun to play a game against them, but once the game starts you discover that they're kind of jerks. They play you 11 on 10 and they're playing hard, celebrating after tackles, trash talking, and by virtue of having an extra man, they're kind of beating up on your team. It's less fun than you hoped.

You see a nice Bentley drive by a couple of times, and finally it pulls into the parking lot, scaring off the joint-smoking eighth graders who are congregated there. Out of the car steps __________, a member of the 2013 Kansas City Chiefs.

"Hey," he calls out. "Do you need a 22nd player? I'd love to play."

What Chief would you most want joining your team? You don't like the opponents and wouldn't mind pulverizing them.

Explain your answers.

Jamaal Charles.

Because, Jamaal Charles.

[Rain Man]

I'm torn. My initial thinking is, as always, Jamaal Charles. I think he'd be great, but is he intimidating enough? Could they box him in on some plays and celebrate that?

Bowe would be another good one. You figured he'd make every catch and win every jump ball and it would be very demoralizing to the other team. He would also punish them after the catch.

But Dontari Poe would be awesome. I bet he would intimidate the solid wastes out of the other team, and he'd be so fast that he'd be making plays from sideline to sideline, pounding people.

Geoff Schwartz could also be fun. You line him up as fullback and let him lead block, and everyone on the team gets a turn to be a star running back.

I should go Charles, but I think Poe would be my guy. He might also get some carries on offense.

[Hog Rider]

Sherman. Just because!

[Nightfyre]

I think Poe or Berry would really take over a game of pickup football.

[HoneyBadger]

Bowe wouldn't make it to the field to play, he'd be too busy smoking with those pesky 8th graders.

That's why I was thinking Schwartz. He or Sherman would make it fun for the rest of the team. If you had Charles, you'd all just stand there and enjoy watching him juke 11 guys out of their shirts, but he would be a one-man show.

Poe or Bowe would be fun from the same perspective of watching, and they would be a little more participatory, I think. But you put Schwartz in there and everyone on your team is going to have some glory.

Tackle? Berry or Jamaal.

[Chief_For_Life58]

poe and put him at rb

[Dante84]

DJ, since he kills it in games that don't matter.

[TimBone]

Bowe

[mrroandrro]

I think I would take Hali. I need a killer, someone who is gonna make those D-bags pay for lining up an extra man. Someone that by the end has brought the quitter out in the 7 guys they have left after 4 were put in the hospital. I want those guys to realize that there are consequences. Plus I'm sure he would be a heck of a RB, or lead blocker who would strike fear into any ham-n-egger standing in front of him.

[Why Not?]

Colquitt because MVP

Explain your answers.

Was Shaun Smith the guy who used to yank people's nuts? If so, then him.

[saphojunkie]

Tyson Jackson, so he could finally get some sacks.
