Reading between the lines on all of these comments does not make for a good situation. It doesn't sound like he wants to return next year. He no longer has trust in Carl, and he doesn't even care if he is honored by the team because he feels the team has screwed him over in recent weeks.

Those big name free agents are going to come flocking to KC next year!

Hopefully the 10 fans will give him a nice cheer

He was surprisingly diplomatic in the interview.

Carl has pissed off so many big-time contributors to this franchise.
Allen, Green, Gonzalez, Johnson... Clark please...

I'll give you Green, Gonzo and LJ, though the argument can be made for Carl in each of those instances, considering 2 of those players were trying to dictate EXACTLY where they were going to be dealt.

But Allen?

If Jared Allen was pissed off by being called "a young man at risk," which he is, then tough shit.

Carl's made a TON of mistakes over the last 20 years, but the way he handled Jared Allen's immature ass isn't one of them, IMO.

gee i'm glad carl didn't trade him for a 3rd....since we're not rebuilding it makes perfect sense to hold on to a 32 yr old player who has no intention of playing for us next year...

brilliant

He should find a way to make Gonzo happy to stay with K.C. That's what you do for hall of famers.

If that's impossible, you get best value. Best value was available yesterday. He'll never be worth more.

Carl Peterson may be the most overpaid man in the world, except for those idiots who drove down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Agreed and we got what we could...

Yep. Such is life withe Carl and Herm. I honestly feel that it wouldn't be THIS bad if Herm wasn't the HC. There's absolutely no light at the end of the with Herm. Tony knows it.

Yep, those three sacks would be making all the difference right now.

Actually, those two sacks, unless we could have arranged for Cutler to run out of the back of the endzone...

If people can't see that he was just playing for a payday now...

Playing next to two of the best DT's in the league, and the best you can do for $70M is 3 goddamn sacks? And you didn't even have to touch the QB on one of them?

Carl's done a TON of stupid shit, but managing to get 3 draft picks, including a mid-first for an alcoholic with 2 strikes against him isn't on the list.

Having alot of sacks is nice, but what we really need is pressure on the QB. We have absolutely none. Not even close. Their QB's have all day to find the receiver they want. Allen would have at least put pressure on the QB and hopefully force him into a bad throw. That shit just doesn't happen right now with our pathetic dline.

He's had tons of pressures and would still be the best player on the Chiefs if he were around.

Carl is such an arrogant prick that it is getting harder and harder to root for this team. All of his "success" came because Marty was here, yet he has an ego as big as Jerry Jones's.

That's wishful thinking, considering he's not getting much pressure in Minnesota, with two studs helping him out by giving him the one-on-one matchup.

I've tried to watch as much of the Vikings as my schedule allows, and he looks like a completely different player.

Check the Vikes boards. He's getting barbecued.

I'm sure he hasn't gotten pressure on the QB aside from those 3 sacks.
:rolleyes:

And he doesn't play well against the run, right?
Hali wouldn't be getting sacks from a more natural position either, right?

Sure-Oz 10-15-2008 03:33 PM

Allen should be leading the league in sacks with Minnesota's DL

I can't argue against that except it doesn't appear they had a plan in place to replace Allen. Did they think Boone was a suitable DE? That was just stupid.
