To hear people talk it would be impossible to win the Super Bowl without Roaf, yet 40 teams have done it and not a single one of them had Willie Roaf at LT.

I think it is a big loss, but it isn't the end of our season.

Whitlock is so depressed I think maybe he should just eat himself to death....

Well gee Splat.. didn't you just get done reading Chicken little Whitlock? The season is over... IT'S OVAH!!!! Damnit start working on those mocks for the 07 draft. :deevee:


We're going to be fine. Whitlock is a maroon.

That is absolutely the most reasonable thing I have ever heard.

I don't wish him death, but if he had an episode that totally blocked his writing ability it might be advantageous.









Oops,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Where is my head? He can't write now! Maybe if he just gained enough weight to make his fingers so fat that he couldn't type on his editing orifice.



Willie did say in the paper that the Chiefs were informed a while back that he wasn't feeling physically like he should at this point in his life and that he didn't feel that he could perform to the level that he expects of himself. Losing a great player is bad, but Willie knows best what he needs.

I think LJ will be fine.

Whitless really shows his ass once again (and that ain’t a pretty sight folks).

Roaf has not submitted his retirement papers to the league, once that is done it is my understanding that he is out for at least a year.

He sent a letter to the Chiefs informing them of his intent to retire, until he has submitted his papers to the league, and has enrolled and started classes at the University of his choice the Chiefs have every reason to hope that Willie will reconsider.

I also don’t think that Willie stands between the Chiefs and the Super Bowl, it may make it a little tougher but it can still be done, I also don’t see the offense going to a five yard and a cloud of dust mentality.

What was our record over those six games without Roaf last year? Anybody know? I'd like to know that before giving out my new predictions.

4-2

Chiefnj 07-29-2006 10:01 AM

Johnson's rushing statistics:
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/player...?playerId=4485


Left sideline: 69 attempts for 436 yards.
Left side: 57 attempts for 282 yards.

Total to the left: 126 for 718 yards. (@ 5.7 per rush)

Middle: 135 for 680 (@ 5.03 per rush)

Right Sideline: 36 attempts for 212
Right Side: 39 attempts for 140.

Total to the right: 75 for 352. (@4.69 per rush)

People can draw their own conclusions from the data if they want.

3-3.

Both Oakland wins and the Texans win.

The Denver, Philly, and Buffalo losses.

oldandslow 07-29-2006 12:37 PM

To me it's not just Roaf...

It's Roaf and Wellborne. And we are trying to replace that with an oft injured "too-light" Turley.

We went from a top 5 OL to a middle OL at best.
