Gretz:Chiefs Update 9/22
Chiefs Update 9/22
September 22, 2008 - Bob Gretz | From the Truman Sports Complex “It’s just not good being a Chief right now.” Those were the words of LB Derrick Johnson Monday afternoon as the Chiefs took a second look at their loss on Sunday to Atlanta and checked up on their physical condition. The 0-3 start and the way the Chiefs have played the last two weeks certainly have made for tough times around the team’s facility. Johnson like the rest of his defensive mates is frustrated by the big plays the unit has been allowing the last two weeks. “We are going to make mistakes; we just can’t let one lead to another,” said Johnson. When asked if the one big play leads to thinking on the Chiefs defense of ‘Oh crap, here it goes again’, Johnson said: “That’s what it seems like. We don’t want to be like that. If we are good enough to stop them, then stop them. One big run, OK calm down and let’s go again.” The Chiefs do not release an injury report on Monday and the only known player dinged from Sunday’s trip to Atlanta was LB Donnie Edwards, who apparently had someone roll up on his ankle in the second half of the game. QB Brodie Croyle continues to average about seven to eight hours of rehab a day, trying to get his right shoulder ready to go. He said he hoped that he would be allowed to start throwing the football later this week. CB Pat Surtain missed the Atlanta game with his own shoulder injury. There was no update on his status. |

7-8 hours of rehab a day? Christ, that would be boring.

I suppose he does get to watch TV. Pretty good gig Brodie has at the moment. Pay isn't too shabby either.

When I saw Croyle on the sideline he looked more like a water boy than an NFL player.

Do you honestly think Croyle could have a productive career with the build he has even if he was good? He was hurt in college and unsurprising to everyone (but chief fans excluding the only non homer you) he has been hurt in the pros. Guy just doesnt' have what it takes in toughness or ability for that matter. Doesn't matter how good you are if you can only play in 8 games a year at best.

Sounds like Croyle is really trying to get back, but I don't know if anyone has ever questioned whether he's a hard worker or a good guy...
