Thank ya... Thank ya!
I just hope they do this again next week and then decide keep TRich in this role. That would allow them to select all defense and O-line in the upcoming draft. |

Cannibal,
I truly hope you are correct, but Carolina and Denver's run defense are not great places to make judgements. I like Tony and the last two games are the first time they have stuck with him, so maybe it is true. I just wish we played a run defense like TB or Tennessee next week so we could find out for sure. Meanwhile the dominance of Denver continues. |

You called it. Let's feed him the ball next season and draft for defense.
the milkman though I think T-Rich and the Chiefs saved MaGoo's job today |

T-Rich looked great today. The thing that still makes me doubt him is that Moreau did as well. And it was against Denver. No doubt, he proved me wrong in some ways today. But I would still not cancel the search for a premier back just yet.

Logical,
NOBODY runs against TB or Tennessee, not even the great RB's. That would not be a fair assessment IMO. |

He can do it guys. All he needs is the carries, just like every other RB that plays the game.
Did you see him out running those DB's? He has the power to crush people and he has the speed to take it to the house, that's all you can ask for. After the game they showed a shot of Peterson talking to TRich. I'm hoping the conversation was about making him the full time RB. |

Cannibal,
I would not be looking for 100 yds but 3.5 per carry for the carries he would get. Great backs will do this and it would be a true test. I just do not have faith in Gunther sticking with Tony next season. Hope I am wrong, I still think Tony can be a Stephen Davis type back if given 25 to 30 touches (run and catch) per game. Props on your faith in Tony, by the way. |

I also liked the way T-Rich ran, and Moreau. Cannibal called it. That's why He's the smartest guy on the board. [img]http://www.chiefsplanet.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]

Am I reading this right? Did we rush for 264 yards!?!?!? Holy sh*t. Credit to T-Rich, Moreau, the OL, DA, and "Wheels" Grbac.

Richardson is now on pace for almost 800 yards rushing and 500 recieving despite shodding run blocking and having to share carries over and over again.
1,300 combined yards from scrimmage is excellent when you're forced to share carries. He should have rushed for 1,400+ if he wouldn't have been screwed around. |

I'd love to know what Peterson was saying to Richardson at the end of the game. It better have been a pep talk explaining that he's going to get 20-25 touches a game next year or Gun's gone...
