McCluster not on injury report
http://chiefsblog.kansascity.com/?q=node/1565
McCluster not on injury report The Chiefs don't have Dexter McCluster listed on the injury report they issued today. That means either McCluster will play Sunday against the Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium or that he will be a healthy scratch. More likely, he will play. That would add another playmaker to an offense that scored 102 points over the past three games. |

Haley says he runs great routes and he should know, I guess. But I don't yet see the extreme, uber-dangerous, offensive threat that some guys seem to be seeing in McCluster. I'm probably wrong about that, though ... as I have been about so many things this year. It appears I may have been wrong about Cassel and I was way wrong about Milton "Mothman" Matherssen. I honestly thought that guy was going to be a superstar in the NFL. In retrospect (and due to my unbridled enthusiasm for the guy), however, I overlooked the fact that the facemask would cancel out his greatest skill and inhibit his ability to chew off the arms of his opponent. Then again, maybe McCluster could help us on punt returns ... that would be nice. Arenas is nicked up and is playing his ass off as a DB. FAX |

And he's forgetting things like picking up blitzes. I'm sure it's all an honest mistake.

It is no coincidence that the Chiefs had to find their offensive identity again, after McCluster was hurt. There are two different ways to stretch a defense. Horizontally and vertically. McCluster did a good job of stretching the defense horizontally, even when he wasn't getting the ball. It was easier to run the ball with him in the game.
The loss of McCluster and the blowout at Denver have allowed the Chiefs to explore the downfield passing game. McCluster also opened up things for Moeaki early in the season, by pulling the coverage up. Teams were more worried about McCluster getting loose than Moeaki. I think that the addition of McCluster could be big for the offense. I am also worried that Cassel will become check down Charlie with him back in there. I don't think he will, I think Matt has progressed to the point that he is reading the defenses better. McCluster will be instrumental on screens and reverses. I don't see how anyone could bash the pick..... but then again, the planet knows best.... they prove it all the time by nailing opinions of guys like Tamba Hali.

This is Chiefs planet.... that's kind of the 'in' thing here. I thought you knew.

The return TD and SF TD show his talent and that he has indeed "done shit" this season. While he hasn't dominated this year, I will take his 7.96 yards per touch game in game out. He has definitely been "over-hyped" but that doesn't mean he's not been good for us when he's on the field. |

Yeah that is something in which I think is very overlooked in the Chiefs successful season. He's a big reason why the Chiefs are ahead of the Chargers right now. The return for the TD made the difference in that game. And that was something thats long past, and probably many of us wouldn't even think about right now. Thank you for the reminder btw. |

One thing about it, with McCluster not playing the last few games, he should be well rested and provide a lot of energy the rest of the season.
He shouldn't hit the rookie wall this year.

McCluster made the biggest play of the season. Without that return, we are a game back of the Chargers.
