Vrabel out indefinitely for Chiefs
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on November 20, 2009 12:15 PM ET
Chiefs linebacker Mike Vrabel is expected to miss this week's Chiefs game. According to the Kansas City Star, he might miss the next few as well. (Can hear the jokes in the comments already. Vrabel is on the Chiefs?)

It's been a tough transition for Vrabel and fellow former Patriot Matt Cassel in Kansas City. The team has won two games and both players have struggled.

Vrabel has one sack and 33 tackles, good for fourth on the team. Under constant pressure and with little help around him, Cassel has averaged 5.68 yards per attempt, which only ranks ahead of four qualifying quarterbacks. He averaged 7.2 in New England.

Cassel will be in Kansas City a while, but Vrabel likely won't be. He is 34 years old and is a free agent after the season.

Studebaker needs the playing time anyways.

[Jerm]

Will he suit up in KC again?

I doubt it.

I believe this is per a Kent Babb tweet. I can't access Twitter from work. Has anyone seen it yet?

i am a fan of derrick johnson, but it hopeless he gets more pt

[-King-]

Hey, remember the time Vrabel tackled the referee by mistake?

How 'bout the time Vrabel tackled the guy from Oakland, and threw him into the stands?

Y'all remember the time he intercepted the ball and his pants fell off, and he ran for the touchdown bare ass?

Remember the time Mike Vrabel showed up at halftime in week 17 and the Chiefs won the AFC West do ya?

[Demonpenz]

[RedThat]

Lets also see what Wallace Gilberry can do?

[Red Beans]

Fire up the Studebaker!

I thought Gillberry played DE in the 3-4? :shrug:

Is he a DE in a 3-4? I must of mistaken him for an OLB then

[RedThat]

I think you're right talastan on kcchiefs.com it says he is a DE...On the depth charts he is listed as a DE. I find it odd because he is small to play DE in a 3-4. He is listed at 6'2" 268lbs.

:shake:

Seriously?

Then watch the Raiders game.

Or nearly every other game.

I think he is mainly used on pass rush IIRC

[CaliforniaChief]

Can we release Clancy Pendergast and hire Vrabel as the DC? That would be an improvement.

[penguinz]

It his hopeless because he doesn't playI meant why are you a fan.

[Mr. Laz]

Why?
because DemonPenz is yet again setting "bait" and you just gobbled it up.


jeebus ... it's the only thing he does and yet people continue to buy it. :doh!:

For real.

It's like people have never read his posts.

For real.

It's like people have never read his posts.Actually I have read very few of his posts. Most are pointless so i just skip over them/

[GoHuge]

Vrabel has been the glue behind this juggernaut defense. What will they do now? Just looked outside and the sky doesn't seem to be falling, but let me check again.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Oh Woes~!

[Crush]

Don't worry, he will continue to cheer from the sidelines for moral support; just like Zach Thomas.

[ChiefsCountry]

That was one great trade by Pioli, a broke dick linebacker and career backup QB.

A "win now" trade my by someone who grossly underestimated the suck on the roster.

[LaChapelle]

Damn it
down another Pro Bowl TE
