Didnt want to be obvious about it, though. With kick returns included, I have already won our bet as he would already have 161 "offensive touches" and that is over 10/game. |

Special teams touches are not offensive touches. I wouldn't be stupid enough to take a bet where potentially 60+ touches could come from special teams.

Did you even look at the conversation we're having before the bet? We're talking about the offense.

Shoulda stated that then. All we have to go off from is what is in print.. and in print, it says offensive touches. A kick return IS an offensive touch.

Like I said, I didn't want it to be obvious at the time the bet was made, but I worded it that way intentionally.
Its not really all that important, though. Devil in the details and all. A kick return IS an offensive play, always has been. |

Nice reasoning. Nope, sorry. We were talking about McCluster's role on offense. That much is clear. Why would I give a **** about kickoff returns...any idiot can touch the ball on a kickoff return. It doesn't take talent.

Where the **** do you get this?
They don't count kickoff returns as part of drive charts...nor do they count kick return yards as part of offensive yards, or in offensive rankings.

Ask any player on twitter if a kick return is the first offensive play of a series...or any coach...all of them will tell you that it is. Its semantics, but its the truth. |

Quarterback be damned this season.
I still like McCluster and glad he is a Chief. He hasn't quite done the things I have expected of him to do, but he has done fairly good with what he had at QB running the offense this season. I do think that with a healthy dose of JC, McCluster can bring an extra jolt to the offense with a defense that has been chasing down JC. We havn't had that this year it's been a different game with just a sludge running attack. McCluster has proven through the course of the year that he can hold his own for his little body. IMO. We could have switched McCluster with Sproles from NO & McCluster would have had a better or just as productive outing as Spoles did there. Like wise if we had Darren Sproles he would have had struggled the same as Sproils has here. New O' leans has better coaching, 100X the quarterback & I'm sure McCluster would have had success doing what ever was asked of him like Sproils.
