"Scanlon reaches when he tackles...it drives Gunther crazy"

[the Talking Can]

Grunhard on 610 about ten minutes ago.



Discuss.

[Saulbadguy]

He'll never make the team.

[Bob Dole]

Keep ****ing doubting Kris Griffin!

[Brock]

That probably works in NFLE.

[Iowanian]

Uh Ho....

His stalker is going to come in here and roast your insiginificant, erectile challenged arses for questioning her Boy....and then the Roys...

Tree of whoa....the tree of whoa

[the Talking Can]

That probably works in NFLE.

ouch...that's quality

[Uatu]

Somebody's got to keep that spot on the bench warm for when DJ, Kendrell, and the rest of the D get back to the sideline.

[TRR]

I've got a friend at TC right now who obtained a field pass. He emailed me from River Falls, and told me that the coaches haven't been pleased with Scanlon's efforts thus far. He's running with the 3rd team right now, and actually got replaced on special teams by Key Fox yesterday.

I think he'll make the team, but if Maz can somehow get healthy (doubtful), I believe he takes Scanlon's third spot.

[ROYC75]

But, but, but ...... DV :rolleyes: is claiming other wise.

He has looked good at times and other times he looks wore out from the reports I'm hearing.

Maybe tired legs has something to do with it ?

[cookster50]

Atleast he is considerate enough to give a reach around.

[KCTitus]

Didnt Gunther watch the preseason games on a TV? That might be the problem why he doesnt see good technique like we do.

[ROYC75]

I'm not concerned the least bit, We will carry 3 MLB's.

I think IF Rich gets his legs back under him he will be 2nd string MLB. Boomer is struggling with gap asignments .

Could be, but if he wants to make the 53 man roster, he needs to show up a little more than every other day. My buddy also told me that Kendrell Bell has gotten a couple of reps at MLB with the 3rd team. I think Kawika is a lock to start at MLB, but that's not good news for Scanlon fans if Bell is getting some backup reps.

KC didn't carry 3 MLB's last season. Kawika Mitchell and Monty Beisel were the only 2. And Beisel eventually moved out to OLB.

[TRR]

What is Maz's status?

Working out individually like Shields is. Maz hasn't been cleared by team doctors yet.

[el borracho]

Scanlon?


I'll guess more than 100 posts before midnight.

Fred Jones was the 3rd, they had Monte as MLB on the depth charts.

Gun has always kept 3 MLB in his schemes.

That's not true. Fred Jones only came into the picture when Beisel was moved back to OLB. Beisel was, in every manner of the word, an OLB.

[Coach]

Rookie draft choice Boomer Grigsby has struggled with the second-team defense, especially against the run. Too often, he’s getting blocked and taken out of plays, while he’s looking for the football, rather than filling his assigned gap.

[TRR]

http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/2005/08/01/gretz_mitchell_in_the_middle/

Key words...Boomer Grigsby and 2nd team defense.

[Ninjaman]

Maz is through.

What about the new guy Dehrhonde or something . Big 270 LB.

Couldn't he play MLB. If he has quickness , he could really be physical.

[Chief Faithful]

Could be, but if he wants to make the 53 man roster, he needs to show up a little more than every other day. My buddy also told me that Kendrell Bell has gotten a couple of reps at MLB with the 3rd team. I think Kawika is a lock to start at MLB, but that's not good news for Scanlon fans if Bell is getting some backup reps.

If Bell can play MLB 2nd or 3rd team then Scanlon is gone and Stills will make the team because of special teams contributions.

[alanm]

Working out individually like Shields is. Maz hasn't been cleared by team doctors yet.
I hate to say it but I think Maz is done.

[Taco John]

What is Maz's status?



Slow

[Coach]

Slow

Can't be any slower than Clarrett tho, eh TJ? ;)

:p

[Demonpenz]

i heard that the surgery that maz had was basicly they amputated his leg to shave off bone then pieced it back together.

[Mr. Laz]

Besides, when are we suppose to take Grunny serious ?
ya and you realize that Gretz would post "grigsby is struggling ....." just as another shot at the fans .... don't you?



fans starting to not like "player A" ... gretz writes that "player A" is misunderstood or getting better or whatever.


fans like "player b" ... gretz writes how "player b" really doesn't have a chance blah,blah,blah.



gretz belongs to the "peterson,dawes,soren petro,htismaqe fan hater club"

Now that's ****ing ignorant. You're going to tell me that Gretz is just making it all up so he can put one over on the fans. Sure whatever.
The bottom line though is Grigsby is on the 2nd team defense, which means he's not being chumped out. I have no doubts that he is struggling with gap assignment though. Nobody expects anyone to pick everything up their first camp in the NFL. The exception being DJ of course...

[KCTitus]

Now that's ****ing ignorant.

I think that means you're part of the 'club' now.

[Mr. Laz]

You're going to tell me that Gretz is just making it all up so he can put one over on the fans. Sure whatever.
i'm saying that you can take information and write a story that leaves all sorts of different impressions.

hear twenty different things about defense ... emphasis on the things you choose.

you can bet that gretz is gonna pick the "anti fan" perspective just like rufus dawes does.


there's nothing that gets a writer in the good graces of the chiefs front office faster than writing a story that mocks the media and/or fans.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

No one f#cks with Scanlon. He will make the team or Dick and Gun will pay with Scanlon's dick and gun!

[royr17]

Scanlon is only 3rd team cause his body and legs are worn out from playing over in NFLE and then goin to Training Camp.

Scanlon will make the team regardless of what you guys think.

[Hammock Parties]

Scanlon is only 3rd team cause his body and legs are worn out from playing over in NFLE and then goin to Training Camp.

He will make an excellent special teams player.

[keg in kc]

Scanlon is only 3rd team cause his body and legs are worn out from playing over in NFLE and then goin to Training Camp.Yeah, it's not like he had a month off after OTAs like everybody else.

Every now and again "us guys" includes Gunther...

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I don't see why some people (well, some people meaning the Roys) think Scanlon is anything special. So he won the DPOTL...big deal, it was NFLE. Didn't Lawrence Phillips win the OPOTL in NFLE a couple years back?

Phillips talent was never in question. His problem was his thug mentality and smacking the spit out of his dinner date...

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Ouch. He's such a has-been that I forgot that he actually was a talent and a high draft pick. Lawrence Phillips has a better chance at making our team than Scanlon. ROFL

[Iowanian]

I'll be curious what the Roys and scatfan91 will have to say when Scanlon is Cut.

I agree, the NFLE is a joke. I wouldn't be surprised if Scanlon was cut. I posted this a couple of months ago.

I think he'll make the 53 man roster. Not sure he'll be on the active gameday roster each week, but I'd imagine somebody out there would snatch him if he was on the practice squad.

[huskerdooz]

I'll be curious what the Roys and scatfan91 will have to say when Scanlon is Cut.

I'll be curious what all the Scanlon bashers will say if he does make the team and actually contributes.

That being said, I could care less either way. If he's good enough he'll make the team. If he's not he won't. It's as simple as that.

I think the NFLE is good in developing players. I don't necessarily think it's a joke, I just think Scanlon is most likely to be on the Rashan Salaam side of the fence, than the Jake Delhomme side.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

If he's good enough he'll make the team. If he's not he won't. It's as simple as that.

Not really.

Why?

Eric Hicks has a roster spot. I wouldn't want to see the naked pictures of Dick's wife either, so I'd keep him on the team no matter what.

[ROYC75]

I'll be curious what the Roys and scatfan91 will have to say when Scanlon is Cut.

Hey there little buddy, that door swings both ways ! ;) What are the hecklers going to say ? :hmmm:

If you must know, in the event it happens, I'll just admit it wasn't to be this year for KC. FWIW, I think he will be picked up by some team that needs help.

I do feel like he is tired from all the banging and running. Many on here have expressed the same thing prior to TC. Even Dante Hall claimed he was physically wore out in TC from his tour of NFLE.

If Boomer is better at the end of TC, so be it. Again, IMHO, Rich will be on the 53 roster and playing ST's each game. I do believe that Rich will emerge as the # 2 MLB by end of TC, of course as always, it's my opinion.

Bottomline, I want the best out there on both sides of the ball. We fans are ready for a winner, a team we can get excited about again.

[el borracho]

So far, so good... only 37 posts to go and we have over 6 hours to meet my prediction.

[ROYC75]

Key words...Boomer Grigsby and 2nd team defense.


FTR, they have been switching them both back and forth on 2nd string....

It's called a training camp battle .... :D

[Iowanian]

Roy....

I see you're using NFLE and the "tired legs" out for Scanlon.

I don't recall that being a valid excuse for Maslowski....or Dante Hall........or Montique Sharpe...or Kurt Warner....you get the point.

If Scanlon ends up being a superstaaaah for the Chiefs, like any fan, I'm sure most of the hecklers along with me will say "fabulous....outstanding....wonderful..."

and after you've crowed too much, and repeat has been in here starting his 35 threads doing it.....We'll probably start picking on you.

[The Bad Guy]

FTR, they have been switching them both back and forth on 2nd string....

Who is crowing .... ?

Rich is no Boomer, Rich does no right to many members here, I was just setting the record straight.

Tired legs ? Not saying this is the reason, but it has been noticed he has been limping around some.

Again, I'm not concerned, IMHO, I think he will be # 2 when camp breaks.

[ROYC75]

I have no answer for the 4 days you saw ..........

[ROYC75]

Here's a Boomer interview ..........

http://www.chiefscoalition.com/index.php?id=168

DB: Where are you on the depth chart?

BOOMER: I'm running with the second string.

DB: Rich Scanlon is running behind you?

BOOMER: Rich is running behind me, and we rotate on certain deals.


One of them will be 2nd string, one will be 3rd string.

[Mr. Laz]

One of them will be 2nd string, one will be 3rd string.

i wouldn't think they would keep a 3rd string MLB unless that linebacker can play other linebacking positions AND contribute heavily to special teams.

[Iowanian]

I say, I say I say YOU are crowing RoyHorn Leghorn.

[ROYC75]

i would think they would keep a 3rd string MLB unless that linebacker can play other linebacking positions AND contribute heavily to special teams.


This is true, Gun wants a 4th starter, a guy who can plug in anywhere and play.

Bell ? Possible. right now the way Fox has stepped up, me think'n that he will be the guy on the 3-4 at times.

Maybe Rich or Boomer in short yardage or goaline defese......

Gun has many options this year with Bell and Johnson here now.

[ROYC75]

I say, I say I say YOU are crowing RoyHorn Leghorn.


ROFL

[Uatu]

Why is this guy so famous? I get the feeling the only time we will hear his name is when he makes a tackle on a kickoff or gets a block in the back or something.

[Saulbadguy]

He is a locker room cancer to boot.

well Uatu....He did make a tackle in a preseason game last year AND committed special teams penalties last year.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I can't believe you're arguing who will be second and who will be third. Bottomline is, if they aren't starting, they aren't worth shit. It's like arguing-- who is better, Todd Pinkston or James Thrash? ROFL

I don't think anybody is arguring about it, right now nobody is locked down as starters or 2nd string, although we all know who the potential starters will be.

Let them continue to battle, makes for a better team.
