Dude is playing lights out. Just like he did eat and every time he stepped on the field for the Chiefs. Cutting Gaither was a ****ing reeruned move and I called it at the time, that he was completely healthy. **** Bill Muir. Dude can't assess OL talent or Coach it for his life.
Quote:
Muir talked about the decision to release OT Jared Gaither, which came out of the blue earlier this week.
"I think basically the situation was pretty clear cut," Muir said. "Even though technically he was 100 percent healthy, I guess technically, physically I didn't see that as the offensive line coach/coordinator. I didn't see the physicalness or the explosiveness he had when he played at Batlimore."
Interesting. The Star reported previously that Gaither said he was healthy, and now the Chiefs say he was "technically" healthy, so maybe there are varying interpretations of exactly what healthy is.
Anyway, Muir went on to indicate that what Gaither lacked physically and explosively wasn't the sole determining factor in his release.
"But there were other circumstances involved in it as you manage your roster at this time of year," Muir said. "So it wasn't all about, 'Can he play?', 'Can't he play?' or 'Who's better?', it was a tactical decision we made."
Sounds like the Chiefs are saying it was a bigger priority to get David Mims some active roster time (with five games remaining which means this isn't an accrued season) rather than keep Gaither in a reserve role.

Mims was a bigger priority? What about Maneri? Couldn't you cut his worthless ass? Nope, Muir has a hard-on for him b/c he's white.
