Get this through your skull. Every team has a few weak spots, including KC. If we HAVE to sign someone at WR, I'd much rather take a chance on someone like Todd Pinkston who has at least shown a little something more than "potential" at this level.

Todd Pinkston signed with the Vikings........also he's a WR who ruptured an achillies something extremely difficult to come back from at that position.

I've always liked you Mecca, but that's reeruned.

TO has all three of those in spades. The only thing you can fault him for is listening to his idiot agent. TO may have an attitude problem, but on the field, he busts his ass to be the best.

Rogers has shown that he's missing some/all of the above traits.

Personally, I think he has the talent. His big ass ego and lazy ass attitude has gotten in the way.

I don't, however, think he has the desire or smarts to play at this level.

He's a #2 pick who thought he could just dance through the NFL because of his college resume.....

As we've had crappy WR's for my entire lifetime........

Really? Because all I've seen is Trent Green's 3 consecutive 4000 yards passing seasons.

That's just me though

I was just messin with you a bit...........

There are honestly people on here that will tell you Owens doesn't have HOF stats and a guy like Hines Ward is better and reeruned shit like that. If you personally despite Owens he is a great player, HOF caliber. People have this dillusional idea that a guy who works hard and doesn't say much is better than the guy who speaks his mind and that's just not always the case.

Doesn't change the fact that we've always bad pretty blah WR's.......name a team that's gone longer than the Chiefs without having a true elite #1 WR....I don't think there's a team.

:clap:

Indeed. [Awaiting another Mecca "We never should have signed Eddie Kennison" or "Nobody wants to sign anyone because they don't want to sign Charles "Puff Puff Pass" Rogers" statement.]

Perhaps that proves you don't need a "true elite #1 WR" to run a very successful offense... :hmmm:

The Patriots? :shrug:

Oh, and they've got something better than 3 consecutive 4000 passing seasons... 3 SB rings.

Bottom line: I don't care if we put Carol Vermeil, Bea Arthur, and Gilbert Gottfried out there as our WRs. If it equals production and an offense like we've had in the past, I'm cool with that.

Thank you for your permission to think for myself. You have my gratitude.

Uh yea they have.......Irving Fryar ring a bell? Seriously I think the Chiefs have gone the longest of any team without having an elite WR. And recently the Pats have won without a true 1 by having great depth at the position and going 4 deep another thing we can't do.

I was talking about recently. The Marty/Gun years don't count.

I'm talking about the history of teams.....you'd have to go back decades to find the last elite WR the Chiefs had, I'd honestly like to know if any other team has gone longer.
