Hell we suck this year , Herm refuses to use him and he still is averaging 4.7 a carry . We have wasted enough money and LJ enough time here . Best for him and us for him to move on while he still has a couple years left . Sad thing is we should have done it before we gave him the big contract . For the youngsters on here who apparently started following the Chiefs during Priest's time and seem to think backs like Priest and Larry fall out of the trees everyday I suggest they take a look at the backs we suffered through here before these last 2 . We were very lucky to have either one and may go a long time without seeing another like them .....

The fact that we suffered through the likes of Ted McKnight, Mike Adamle, Tony Adams, Greg Hill, et al, does nothing to diminish the fact that good RBs aren't nearly as hard to find as the Chiefs made it appear for all those long sorry years.
