so whats the diagnosis?

[cdcox]

We barley knew you.

Maybe he'll let us keep his wife.

[MichaelH]

Is that his hot wife behind the fat donut eater?

I shouldn't laugh, I'm on crutches as well. :(

[Bob Dole]

so whats the diagnosis?

Can only play in 20% of the games...

[Hydrae]

If his leg is screwed up, I volunteer to keep Kelli happy in the meantime! :p

[KCUnited]

so whats the diagnosis?

elephantitis of the pussy.

[beach tribe]

Bye Brodie. I think you could have been something, if you were about 30 lbs thicker, and were a long way away from dick curl.

[Hammock Parties]

We barley knew you.

Maybe he'll let us keep his wife.



What makes a man?
Is it the woman in his arms?
Just 'cause she has big titties
Or is it the way
He fights everyday?
No, it's probably the titties

[SAUTO]

elephantitis of the pussy.

i knew that just wondered about his knee

[chiefs1111]

ok bye bye Brodie

[Johnny Vegas]

he was drafted the wrong place wrong time. H&C buried him.

[kysirsoze]

i knew that just wondered about his knee

MCL apparently. Out for the season regardless of what it is. They might as well have said out forever as far as I'm concerned. Tired of waiting around for potential to blossom. I guess that goes for the whole damn team.

[cdcox]

Bad genetics more likely. It's not just size. His tendons and joints are not cut out for an NFL beating.

An MCL is only a six week injury. His knee is blown.

Huard got hurt as well. Are we seriously down the Thigpen and whatshisface Martin?

could be. I feel bad for the guy. Nothing could feel worse than trying to build yourself up from already being at the bottom and then crash through what you thought you couldn't go any lower. Hope he figures out what he has to do now and just get healthy and turn the page.

He needs to start selling insurance, that is if his body can take the strain of shuffling papers across a desk without tearing his labrum.

What he has to do now is: find a job.

[Johnny Vegas]

He needs to start selling insurance, that is if his body can take the strain of shuffling papers across a desk without tearing his labrum.

then he could file for workmen's comp. His insurance rates have now quadrupled....

[The Bad Guy]

he was drafted the wrong place wrong time. H&C buried him.

His genes burried him.

Herm and Carl are responsible for just about everything, but Croyle's injury history isn't one of them.

[chasedude]

I hope he's invested his past earnings well. I'm sure he'll buy some car dealership in Alabama somewhere now.

[Johnny Vegas]

What he has to do now is: find a job.

jobS! he'll need a backup job if he gets hurt at his other job....:Dyea I'm going to hell in a hand basket.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

I predicted he would not make it through todays game-but didn't think his career would be over.

I don't understand how anyone could be that fragile. I really have a hard time comprehending it.

The guy makes Chris Chandler look like a cross of Brett Favre and Jerry Quarry, sans bleeding.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

He needs to start selling insurance, that is if his body can take the strain of shuffling papers across a desk without tearing his labia.

FYP

[KcMizzou]

The dude had big dreams of being a real NFL QB. His body just can't handle it.

He's not a pussy. And I don't blame him for anything.

If you want to insult someone, insult Peterson and Edwards for ever thinking he was "the guy" in the first place.

they should have never drafted him. He was a wrong fit from the beginning. The line can't hold anyone long enough for Croyle to throw the ball. A quicker reaction by the QB is all this line needs to look better. The line failed, which Carl took responsibility for, which ended up sealing the fate for Croyle.

ehh

He was worth a 3rd. He did show flashes of talent.

Herm made a couple of bad mistakes.

1. He should have started Croyle last year from the beginning, then we would have known alot earlier that his body wouldnt hold up.

2. The Chiefs should have drafted another QB this year in the draft. Herm made a fatal mistake there.

Oddly looking back all the players in that draft I liked were secondary guys so people probably wouldn't have liked what I'd have done either.

That draft was awful for QB's...

I still think the Chief should have made a strong play for Ryan.

But i heard that Herm was fearful that Ryan would have fallen when the Chiefs picked. He DID NOT want to make that decision. ROFL

[Halfcan]

no QB will be any good behid a Swiss cheese line

[Halfcan]

Did ANYONE on our line know that Haynesworth was playing today and already had 5 sacks from the DT position????????

[kstater]

I don't see why he can't play next year. Wrap him in enough bubble wrap to make him look like the Michelin Man and he's good to go.

Or the Chiefs should have made a stronger play for Quinn last year when they knew Cleveland wanted him so bad.

[Little Bigfoot]

The Herm mistakes just keep piling up. Anybody work with someone like this? Seems to have all the answers and always steps on the rake.

[Mecca]

I remember when the Chiefs took Croyle I was begging for them to take Ko Simpson....the Bills took both Youboty and Simpson who I wanted us to take..figures.

[alanm]

I don't see why he can't play next year. Wrap him in enough bubble wrap to make him look like the Michelin Man and he's good to go.I've no doubt that he will be back next year but not as a starter. His replacement will be acquired via free agency and we will also draft a QB.

[Halfcan]

****, that stings.

drafting a Tank and Turk should have seemed dumb at the time-but I still don't think Herm has figured it out. :)

They would be busts with the Chiefs, cause our coaching sucks.

[Little Bigfoot]

Let that be a lesson to ya, Herm. Don't bring in a green QB without bolstering the O-Line . Did we even bother to check out Faneca or Faine?

[whoman69]

Up until this point I had been a Brodie backer. I still don't even think he got a chance to work with any positive strategy or to play behind a line that would actually protect him. Its become clear now that he just can't stay on the field. To me that says that he possibly had the talent but didn't put in the work to ensure that he had a body that could endure a 16 game season.

That said. The QB we draft next year will be a wasted pick if he is put behind a non-existent offensive line built up of castoffs and nevergonnabes then we will again wait forever for the Chiefs to develop a young QB talent.

[Deberg_1990]

IM not even sold on Dorsey yet. I know itsd early but dude seems invisible. He was sold as an IMPACT player.

Herm finally got what he wanted from this season. He now knows Brodie is not ever going to be the guy. Great kid full of talent but can't take it physically.

[Mecca]

IM not even sold on Dorsey yet. I know itsd early but dude seems invisible. He was sold as an IMPACT player.

He is roughly 300lbs, the problem is he's going to take time he needs serious weight room work and development because right now he's undersized. Unless he is super super quick and explosiveness NFL interior lineman will just engulf him.

The Chiefs biggest issue is they have alot of undersized players that just get manhandled it happens to Hali all the time. It's probably why this team could play with Denver, their offensive front is one of the smallest in the league.

I'm reading these posts and it seems we pretty much suck from top to bottom. Well, thanks for the win.

[Mecca]

I still think Dorsey is playing out of position.

Well we have a dumbass Dline coach, Dorsey is small by NFL DT standards. We saw Haynesworth today he is significantly larger than Dorsey is.

Exactly. That's why I've been b!tching so much about our DTs and their lack of size. But everybody and their mom says you need smaller, quicker pass rushing DTs for the cover 2 and look where it's gotten us.

When I look around the league, all the top DTs seem to be the 330 lb guys who just cannot be moved.

A cover 2 at it's heart will always be a defense that can be run on, the problem is the Chiefs don't have anything you need for a cover 2. You need LB's that can run sideline to sideline and make plays, safeties that cover a ton of ground and most of all DE's that create a hell of a pass rush.

Cover 2 with no pass rush from the front 4=death.

Personally I think the cover 2 is an outdated defense that doesn't work unless you have superior talent, Even Tampa doesn't really play Tampa 2 anymore.

minus the whole staying on the field and talent thing that the other 31 teams use to judge their QBs

[KCKY-Fan4life]

What a joke. He has been hurt in more than half the games he has played in. We need to cut bait now and realize he will never be anything better than a backup(I knew this last YEAR). We need to make a trade for a good QB, try and get one via free aganecy or hope we can get a good one in the draft.

[Braincase]

So now Brodie's career loss record is... (I would say win-loss record, but you've gotta have a win for one of those).

BTW: My seats are right above that tunnel. Kind of cool to see it from that angle.

[Mr. Kotter]

In all likelihood, Brodie wrote his NFL obituary today.

The fact his playing weight hasn't increased over his three years speaks volumes about his commitment to playing in the NFL. Either that, or he's one of those guys who simply CAN'T gain weight....I gotta think he just doesn't have the motivation to put on the extra muscle he needed to survive in the NFL.

JMHO

[GoTrav]

Personally I think the cover 2 is an outdated defense that doesn't work unless you have superior talent, Even Tampa doesn't really play Tampa 2 anymore.

It's been outdated for years, especially with the new rules. Any defense with undersized DT's is going to be vulnerable to getting gashed by the run, and then hit over the top on the PAP.

Even with the current talent, this defense is best suited to play much closer to the style of D that we employed on Gunther's first go-around. I don't think Carr really has the talent to be a man corner in this league, but Flowers does. I don't know how good he is at jamming the man at the LOS, though.

Johnson and Pollard should be blitzing the hell out of the quarterback. They can be effective players when the scheme suits their talent (Pollard should be a Will backer).

[Mecca]

what was your reaction? Did you offer words of encouragment as he walked off the field.......forever?

He dumped a beer on Brodies head.

[Hammock Parties]

He dumped a beer on Brodies head.

So when are they reporting the concussion?

[Hydrae]

I am just curious about something. How do they know he is done for the year without an MRI or anything? Don't most teams wait until the player goes to the doctor on Monday before this kind of announcement is made?

[gblowfish]

what was your reaction? Did you offer words of encouragment as he walked off the field.......forever? There's two sets of stairs that go down to that tunnel The tunnel is right behind the Chief's Bench. My seats would be near the left set of stairs, he went down the others. I saw him go down, but the game was in progress, and he was surrounded by doctors. So no, I didn't say anything to him. I did ask Patrick Surtain for his game check today after the game was over. He declined.

[Sure-Oz]

Brodie better get his resume ready, that said hopefully he has a good savings. I don't see a future for him in the NFL with any team.

He could weigh 225, and that weight wouldn't have saved him from a blown knee.

Sucks that it didn't work out for him.

[sedated]

I've never seen them announce a player is out for the year during the same game he was injured, much less that same half. The first gimpy step he took after that injury was his first one out of town.

Maybe he can sell his house to Stafford.

me either, I thought that was strange and mentioned it in the game thread. It's usually...Monday after a MRI/Scan whatever. This is the first time I've seen it announced coming out of the half. Even Brady's injury looked worse than this. Croyle got blasted but Brady's injury had knee and out for the season written all over it. It still took them until Monday to report it?

The extra weight would have been a burden on his reconstructed knees.

It's a shame but it further illustrates the poor drafting policy of the Chiefs organization during the span of the past 25 years.

The Chiefs should have been spending a first day pick on a QB every other year since the advent of free agency.

I don't know any pros, but I remember almost all of the guys on my high school's football team being a bunch of dickhead jocks.

I think he still has a future in the league but as a number 2 quarterback. He has the talent and who the hell knows what can happen, NFL has seen some crazy shit happen with backup quarterbacks. That being said we need to draft a QB #1 next year for sure.

[Reerun_KC]

Later Brodie...

Sorry it didnt work out... You made some serious money from the Chiefs, Enjoy the cash, head back home and start you a nice business... Life is way to short to give your body to the Chiefs...

Besides, Herm doesnt care about you, why should you give a shit about his team?

Thanks and good luck in your future....

That's no 'torn labia' injury. I got high/lowed exactly like that in a basketball game in high school and it shredded my ACL.

I'm not sure it isn't (or wasn't) as much luck as it was genetics. Because I've never seen one person get this many 'wrong place, wrong time' kind of injuries. He was like the embodiment of murphy's law.

I think he still has a future in the league but as a number 2 quarterback. He has the talent and who the hell knows what can happen, NFL has seen some crazy shit happen with backup quarterbacks. That being said we need to draft a QB #1 next year for sure.

Rich Gannon II??

That's the best he can hope for, IMHO.

Not too bad; but not likely either.

What makes you think he "still has a future" in the NFL? He has never shown anything except that he is injury prone.

[stlchiefs]

In all likelihood, Brodie wrote his NFL obituary today.

The fact his playing weight hasn't increased over his three years speaks volumes about his commitment to playing in the NFL. Either that, or he's one of those guys who simply CAN'T gain weight....I gotta think he just doesn't have the motivation to put on the extra muscle he needed to survive in the NFL.

JMHO

I've been saying the same thing (not on CP as I don't post often) since the offseason. When a guy gets 2 years to sit and bulk up and still looks like a high schooler there's an obvious lack of effort. I didn't expect him to be doing protein shake commercials with Brady Quinn but a little bulk would've been nice on that string bean frame of his. Too late now.

[OnTheWarpath15]

For the eleventy-billionth time.

It's much more than a weight issue for Croyle.

Only one of his injuries in the NFL could possibly been prevented had he weighed 225 instead of 210, and that's the bruised kidney in the Oakland game last year - which I'll remind all of you that he went in and took a painkiller injection and finished the game.

Having extra weight wasn't going to keep his knee or shoulder intact on each respective play.

[StcChief]

bye bye Brokie

[007]

Don't let the door hit ya in the ass. I'm done.

[Taco John]

This is why back when, I said that rather than starting him, they should put him on a two-year plan with a primary focus on building his frame and learning the offense behind Huard. I will never understand what the rush was to throw in a frail third round quarterback when you could have built him up, and put him in fully confident with the system and ready to take a hit.

That's on Herm.

[Hammock Parties]

Actually, he's as built as he's going to get, Taco.

Not that Herm has a clue about identifying OL talent.

[Chiefnj2]

Some people are just lanky and don't have the ability to "bulk" up. It really wouldn't have mattered all that much with his injuries. He's going to be just about as brittle at 220 as he is at 210.

He's not a rookie. He's a third year player who has had since April of 2006 to get on an NFL strength and conditioning program (after previously being at an elite university with a great S&T program in college). He simply could not get up to 225 without serious amounts of vitamin S.

He had almost two years of service in before we started him. It's not like he's Flacco coming out of Delaware and starting from day one.

He's listed at 210. I guarantee he's not more than 195.

I'm with OTW.

I really did have hope that Brodie would pan out. I really did, and it is disappointing that he did not. I think I was pulling for him so hard not because he was a good guy (I think he was) or because he has one gawddayumned hot ass wife (he does), but because he was the one shot of turning this thing around in a hurry. Now we are stuck with Hutard and I'm not even gonna mention Thiggy. We either bring in a n00b and wait for him to develop, or go down the retread road again....FRIGGIN SWEET.

On the topic of rookie QBs, If Herm isn't fired, I don't know if I want one. All he is going to do is get into 3rd and longs because Herm will stick LJ in on running plays so they stack the line and take him out on pass plays so they can tee off. Plus, I don't think I want the future leader of the Chiefs to have any exposure to Squirmin Herman. Really, Brodie's knock was that he was a gunslinger and Herm turned him into a 1 yard pass machine. Not to mention that all of Herm's QBs get broken.

As much as all of you hate Brodie for being fragile, and even the dumbasses that wanted Huard to start because Brodie would throw too many INTs... :doh!: You have to admit, he was the only shot at turning this thing around quickly. And now he is gone. Personally, I hope he catches on as a backup for a decent team. He deserves as much for having to deal with Squirmin Herman Fucking Edwards.

[Skip Towne]

So, will Kelli stay with him as he stocks shelves at the grocery store?

[GoTrav]

haha people care more about his fucking wife than they do Brokie

[KcMizzou]

So, will Kelli stay with him as he stocks shelves at the grocery store?If not, she can stay at my place.

I'll be a gentleman, honest.

[GoTrav]

this whole thing is like a bad episode of 90210

[KcMizzou]

this whole thing is like a bad episode of 90210How so? I never watched the show...

[Hammock Parties]

I came closer to nailing Kelli than any of you bums. I stood RIGHT next to her.

[luv]

How so? I never watched the show...

Think soap opera targeted for young adults.

[Frankie]

could be. I feel bad for the guy. Nothing could feel worse than trying to build yourself up from already being at the bottom and then crash through what you thought you couldn't go any lower. Hope he figures out what he has to do now and just get healthy and turn the page.

I think he will retire.

[gblowfish]

I came closer to nailing Kelli than any of you bums. I stood RIGHT next to her.

I did a job for her about six months ago. She's a really nice person. You'd like her.

[Bwana]

Yeah, you came REALLY close to plugging into that. :spock:

Um, no.

[Frankie]

Personally I think the cover 2 is an outdated defense...

I agree with that.

[Frankie]

Bye Brodie, thanks for nothing.

Not for lack of trying. Be gracious.

[Frankie]

I wish that Clark Hunt would sell this team. :grr:

Be careful what you ask lest you may get it. The new buyer will probably move the club to LA.

[Frankie]

I have NOT found that to be true, whatsoever.

Do not question Claythan on this. If anyone's an expert on dicks, it's him.

That's good for Dane it's a closer proximity to where he lives.

I'm going to dress like Brodie Croyle for Halloween, I'm gonna get a big box and cut out holes for my head and arms, then I'm going to put caution tape on it and write in big letters "FRAGILE"

Brodie Croyle, the real life bubble boy.

Did you even watch the play? I am not sure anyone could have escaped that sandwich un-hurt.
