When I made your bet I had altered my expectations. As it is I came close to winning. He barely made it to 10 a game. The other bet was made before the season, when McCluster was floundering down the list for touches as he is now.

Man, just sniping for me, aren't you?
McCluster wasn't a gimmick in 2011. He played snaps at RB because they needed him--he was the only speed option the Chiefs had in the backfield. Sure, when they got him on the field, they had the flexibility to use him as a receiver. But it's not like you were putting him on the field at the expense of a better player. Next year, the only way he gets on the field is to take good players off. There are a few plays where he genuinely needs to take a guy's spot because of injury or because your top 2 RBs are gassed. Otherwise, it's hard to imagine a play where you take an important player off unless you're trying to force some kind of a gimmick on the offense. |

You do realize he only had 275 the season before the injury?

Yeah, in a year where:
1. It was his first year as a starter. and 2. Haley was in love with Thomas Jones He's the best player on the team. He's gonna touch the ball. A lot.

No way. Charles is too valuable to the team. I can maybe see them upping his carries in the postseason, if they get there. But I'd be shocked if he got very much over 250. At the absolute most. The Chiefs are undoubtedly going to bring in a thumper. I would not be surprised at all if that guy was Ben Jarvus Green-Ellis. |

You didn't "own" me. You barely won last year's bet. It took a ridiculous game where Dexter was suddenly featured because of Battle's injury for you to win.

Lets make it clear how many games he has to miss due to injury for the bet to void.
1 game? 2? |

Let's just say he'll average 19 touches a game.

If Charles touches the ball 300 times Crennel needs his head checked. |

Charles is most effective when another back softens up the D.
He should average around 15 touches a game. 250 touches is more than enough for Charles 225 carries @ 5-6+ yards a pop was and is the best way to use him. |

If anything this season is going be fun to watch with McCluster just to watch you backtrack and make a bigger ass out of yourself Claytex.

Its not so much on Crennel. Daboll sounds like he has full control of the offense and Reggie Bush only touched the ball 259 times on a team with far less talent on offense than the Chiefs.
