LeSean McCoy - INACTIVE today

[rabblerouser]

Healthy scratch.

[TribalElder]

dang, who will run for 2 yards per carry and fumble during critical moments ?

[DJJasonp]

Interesting.....

[J Diddy]

I’m sure we can find someone to hold the ball at arm’s lengths in traffic in crunch time. Next man up!

[Chiefshrink]

Interesting.....

Nah, he is half way in the doghouse if not all the way IMHO. The few runs McCoy made last week he was still holding that ball out like waving the flag. We just might get some Thompson today. Did Darwin make the traveling team?:D

[Chris Meck]

Interesting.
What I like about it is that I think it'll mean some more reps for Darrel, my favorite Williams.

Also perhaps Darwin gets some snaps.

I think though that completely benching Shady is a bit extreme. It's TWO fumbles. It's not like he's putting the ball on the ground all the time. They were at unfortunate moments, but still. In YPC, he was far ahead of Damien.

[Sassy Squatch]

Well deserved benching. Stupid bitch is too stubborn to not hold the ball like a goddamn retard.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Well deserved benching. Stupid bitch is too stubborn to not hold the ball like a goddamn retard.

Exactly!! Until he fixes that he needs to be benched. Darrell should get more carries. I really like Darrell

[alpha_omega]

Just saw it on the inactive list.
Good. “Loaf of bread” can just ride the pine.

Williams is there one averaging 2 yards a carry, not mccoy. He's averaging 5+

[Deberg_1990]

:clap:

I could live with the lax ball security if he was more of a breakaway threat like when he was younger. Since hes not, then hes no longer all that valuable.

[-King-]

Well deserved benching. Stupid bitch is too stubborn to not hold the ball like a goddamn retard.

It's never been a problem his whole career. It's weird people would think he'd change 10 years in.

[Rasputin]

Shoulda just cut his ass

[wazu]

Williams is there one averaging 2 yards a carry, not mccoy. He's averaging 5+

Neither of these statements are accurate.

[chiefzilla1501]

At his age, it's a good excuse to rest him while also helping him hold on to the ball better. Took tiki a few games to get it down. I doubt that Reid and mccoy have the type of relationship where this feels like the doghouse.

Yeah, maybe by the time he reaches 40 years old he'll learn how to protect the football. Then we roll.

3.8 genius. I swear you just throw random shit with every post

[Demonpenz]

I hope both RB's today fumble

[Frazod]

Well deserved benching. Stupid bitch is too stubborn to not hold the ball like a goddamn retard.

His non-contact fumble in the Packers game was inexcusable. Wrecked the defense that had just got off the field, totally changed momentum. While pretty much nobody saw that as a winnable game under the circumstances, it was.

[ThyKingdomCome15]

They may just wanna see what Darwin and Darrel can do. Seriously. McCoy has been nicked up too
May just be giving him some rest for when we play a more competitive team as well.

[-King-]

I don't know about this though. I think it's a health thing. He hasn't been the same since his injury and even then he's still been the better running back between him and Williams.

Hopefully this means that Darwin has picked up the playbook and will get more opportunities because I was super excited for him in preseason only for him to be inactive most games.

McCoy is averaging 5.15 yards a carry.

And you're right about Williams. Thanks to his 91 yard run he's now averaging 3 yards a carry. He was averaging 2 yards before that run.

I'd be much at ease about this if they just said he was benched for sucking and fumbling.

Saving our best and stud running back for the long run. Don’t need him for the Titans! We airing it out today! Mahomes is Back!

[gblowfish]

He must have dropped the soap in the shower after Friday's practice.

[wazu]

And you're right about Williams. Thanks to his 91 yard run he's now averaging 3 yards a carry. He was averaging 2 yards before that run.

You're right, I scanned his stat line and saw his career average. Stand corrected. Damien is at 3.8 yards per carry. And has zero fumbles.

[rabblerouser]

Load management.

[wazu]

I'm wondering if we'll see a lot of Thompson today.

[-King-]

You're right, I scanned his stat line and saw his career average. Stand corrected. Damien is at 3.8 yards per carry. And has zero fumbles.

Like I said, I believe that this is purely a health thing. The fumbles have been bad but contrary to how he carries the ball may suggest, he's one of the least fumble prone backs in the league. Add that to the fact that he's outplayed Williams up to this point, I don't see why they would bench him for just the fumbles. Especially when Reid knows his history and knows his playstyle.

[Chargem]

Darwin break out game.

It's what happens when you get older. You get a little more softer and casual and this is what happens.

[BigCatDaddy]

Just feed Thompson like they did Hunt and let the chips fall where they may.

My theory on the fumbles: He's slower now. You can get away with a lot more carelessness when you are able to run away from everybody and make people miss. That's not his game now. He needs to be technically sound, but he's not.

[kysirsoze]

You might be right, but it's a pretty small sample size to use to determine he's now a fumbler and the way he carries the ball is to blame.

[chiefzilla1501]

Yeah, maybe by the time he reaches 40 years old he'll learn how to protect the football. Then we roll.

He hasn't had fumbling issues until this year. It is a new issue probably because defenses are punching at balls like crazy these days. It's a new issue. Neither fumble was from him palming the ball. This isn't Jamaal Charles who has a history of this stuff.

[chiefforlife]

Rotoworld thinks hes done...



LeSean McCoy RB, Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs declared RB LeSean McCoy, DL Alex Okafor, OL Eric Fisher, OL Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, DL Mike Pennell, CB Kendall Fuller, and QB Chad Henne inactive for Week 10 against the Titans.

McCoy's third quarter fumble from Week 8 likely sealed his fate as a healthy scratch for the rest of the season barring an injury ahead of him. Damien Williams will take over for McCoy as Kansas City's starting back with Darrel Williams and Darwin Thompson sprinkled in behind him. Patrick Mahomes (knee) was notably fully cleared and is officially active under center.

[Chief Northman]

WHY IS MIKE PENNEL INACTIVE?

Fuckkkkkkkkkk

[ChiefRocka]

If you think for a second that Shady isn’t going to be catching screen passes in the playoffs you don gon bat shit crazy yo

[chiefforlife]

WHY IS MIKE PENNEL INACTIVE?

Fuckkkkkkkkkk

Yeah, I dont get that. He was our secret weapon for Derek Henry.

[wazu]

You might be right, but it's a pretty small sample size to use to determine he's now a fumbler and the way he carries the ball is to blame.

I'm actually more concerned with the way I see him carry the ball down after down than I am the quantity of fumbles. The fact that he keep doing it tells me he can't be trusted.

[chiefzilla1501]

From what I remember when tiki had this issue years ago, he was drilled on holding the ball closer to his bicep. High and tight. He was drilled over and over again until he got it right. I'm sure that's what's happening. Keep him fresh, drill him on this til he gets it. Way too productive a back to not try to fix what's probably a one time issue.

[ModSocks]

Load management.

Yup.

[rabblerouser]

WHY IS MIKE PENNEL INACTIVE?

****kkkkkkkkk

*buries face in hands*

[JakeF]

I wonder if McCoy got into an argument about the way he holds the ball so they benched him. McCoy just looking tired? Weird.

[JakeF]

WHY IS MIKE PENNEL INACTIVE?

Fuckkkkkkkkkk:banghead:

They better not be putting Jones back inside. Why?

:cuss:

The gameplan for beating us is running the ball. We need to make sure and keep our run defense strong. Nnadi,Saunders and Pennel inside and Jones at DE help do that.

[Megatron96]

You're right, I scanned his stat line and saw his career average. Stand corrected. Damien is at 3.8 yards per carry. And has zero fumbles.

Damien has 3 fumbles over about 240 carries for his career. About a fumble every 80 carries. So he's about due.

[notorious]

Hill got chucked 7-8 yards from the LOS.

[Demonpenz]

I hope both RB's today fumble

FUCK YES

[rabblerouser]

dang, who will run for 2 yards per carry and fumble during critical moments ?

Damian Williams says "here, hold my beer..."

[Beef Supreme]

Hardman is a fucking idiot

[Megatron96]

"Damien is just as good as Kareem . . ."

[-King-]

Ironic.

No Pennel will haunt them.... Henry warming up.

I can’t imagine anyone being stupid enough to say something like that.

[KChiefs1]

"Damien is just as good as Kareem . . ."


What idiot said that?

[UK_Chief]

Yeah he should’ve played

[lewdog]

Both of our average backs are still average.

News at 10.

[KC Hawks]

It's amazing we've lost three games because of three fumbles by our running backs. Wish we had a back who never fumbled...

[JakeF]

We could have used McCoy today.

[MahiMike]

Williams fumbles and they trot his sorry ass right back out there. McCoy is the best back we've played this year. Guess we'll never know about Thompson. Bieniemy is trying hard not to get a head coaching job.

Thompson got a couple of carries today. Didn't he end up with negative yardage?

[Megatron96]

-1. Only two carries though. Sample size is non-existent.

[Megatron96]

All RBs fumble now and again. Some more than others. Historically, Damien fumbles about every 70-80 carries. His fumble today was right around his 70th carry since his last one. If you extrapolated a full season as a 3-down back, he'd fumble about 3-4 times a year.

Shady would fumble about 2.5 times a year.

Barry Sanders fumbled about 3 times a year.

Wondering what’s going on with him? Not inactive last game
But never saw the field?

He's on Reid's shit list. Andy knows that this may be the best chance he'll ever have to win it all and he isn't letting some dumbass who won't protect the rock get it the way.

I can't say I blame him.

I'm pretty sure him and Williams have the same number of fumbles.

Hell, Williams fumble in the Tits game week 10 is what lost the game.

[FlaChief58]

Hell, Williams fumble in the Tits game week 10 is what lost the game.

At least Williams doesn't hold the ball like a he's holding a dirty diaper that's been sitting in the sun for 2 days. If Shady carried the ball the way he should and lost the ball occasionally, you could look the other way.

[sedated]

He's on Reid's shit list. Andy knows that this may be the best chance he'll ever have to win it all and he isn't letting some dumbass who won't protect the rock get it the way.

I doubt that's true, McCoy and Reid were together for a long time in Philly, I don't think Andy is the type of coach to start hating a long time player over a couple of fumbles.

Damien has been playing great recently, McCoy hasn't been as effective behind this o-line. It doesn't have to be more complicated then that.

[dlphg9]

I'm pretty sure him and Williams have the same number of fumbles.

Hell, Williams fumble in the Tits game week 10 is what lost the game.

Damien Williams
141 Touches and 1 Fumble, 1 fumble every 141 touches

Mccoy
129 Touches and 3 Fumbles, 1 fumble every 43 touches

Small sample size and all, but I dont trust McCoy to not lose the ball and apparently Andy feels the same way.

[dlphg9]

Also it seems pretty clear, as I stated when we first signed McCoy, he's washed up. He's had 12 games in which he had a carry. The 1st 6 games he had 60 carries for 322 yards, that comes out to a very respectable 5.4 ypc and 1 fumble. These last 6 games that he has had a carry has been very shitty and looks like this 41 carries 143 yards 3.5 ypc and 2 fumbles. Reid may really be sitting him for rest, because he seems to have fallen off a cliff.

We need to find a competent back that can do some damage with 10-15 carries a game and no matter what some of you think Damien Williams is not that person. Luckily he was able to find the end zone, because if not hed be completely worthless.

[Kiimo]

At least he'll get a ring

[MrSlippery]

I sort of agree with this and hope we can maybe do that in the draft. I do not think Damien Williams is the short or long term solution though he does have games where you may think differently

[NY CHIEF]

Andy's keeping him fresh for the summer

[Hoover]

At this point I think McCoy is a nice insurance policy if Williams gets dinged up.

Williams would be a tricking awesome #2 RB next season, draft a kid and let him get the tough yards.

[BigRedChief]

No reason to risk a fumble at this point.

[Skyy God]

Damien Williams
141 Touches and 1 Fumble, 1 fumble every 141 touches

Mccoy
129 Touches and 3 Fumbles, 1 fumble every 43 touches

Small sample size and all, but I dont trust McCoy to not lose the ball and apparently Andy feels the same way.

Rabble was factually incorrect?

Color me shocked??

[rabblerouser]

Rabble was factually incorrect?

Color me shocked??

I said "I'm pretty sure", which is different from "I'm 100% sure". If you knew what words meant, you would understand that.

Williams fumble DID directly cost us the week 10 game against the Tits. On that I AM 100% sure, so maybe that's why I consider him such a fumblefuck.

Hey Crave, did your parents have any children that lived? I'll bet they regret that.

[Megatron96]

Damien Williams
141 Touches and 1 Fumble, 1 fumble every 141 touches

Mccoy

Not going to get into this again.

However, if you look at Damien's stats through his career, which gives us a much larger data set to look at, he fumbles about every 90-100 touches.

Which btw, his fumble in Tennessee was right at about 90 touches since his last fumble.

I actually discussed the whole Shady vs. Damien fumble statistics somewhere right before the TEN game, and predicted that he was due for a fumble during the following couple games.
