No. If you mention this again, you will be banned.

Trotter is a shitload better than Barber was when we got him. Barber was never really a key in Phillys D and never performed at the all-pro level than Trotter has in the past. He was just a guy that Philly plugged in for a season after Trotter left. He best year probably wasnt even as good as Trotters worst with Wash.

Assuming he manages to get healthy, yeah. We paid a good amount of money for him and he was known as a "ballhawking" LB when he came. I think Barber could still do some good for us. He's done well before. He just seems to have gotten engulfed in the whole crappiness that is the Chiefs defense.

The big question is will he be able to regain his health?

That's a freakin joke. In his 2nd season in the league Barber had 101 tackles and returned an INT 70 yards for a TD. He got injured in 2000 and then blew out his knee in 2001. He had 92 tackles and returned an INT 80 yards for a TD in Philly in 2002.

He was regarded by most as one of the top 2 or 3 linebackers available when the Chiefs signed him. He managed 112 tackles in GREG ROBINSON'S defense.

Once again, the "what have you done for me lately" mentality causes people to repaint history.

And this was accomplished while wearing a cast for half the season.
