Chiefs How much patience do you think Haley will have with LJ? - Page 5

Deberg_1990 · 09-14-2009, 09:01 PM

Im going to guess if LJ doesnt start performing by next weekend, he will get benched in favor of Charles or Battle.

I realize that the line is bad, but we have got to do better than 11 for 20 yards from our starting RB.

Haley doesnt strike me as the patient type......

LJ is the Kanye West of the Chiefs.

He is long in the tooth and he was never that good on the opening carries, and never really can we get hm going because we don't have a line, and we aren't up in the score to feed the ball and get him going. I can't see him not getting the ball at all, because he is a workhorse, mine as well use him up.

on the touchdown pass to blow job ryan, johnson murdered the middle linebacker. that takes some heart.

There wasn't any room for either of the backs to really do anything.

Molitoth · 09-15-2009, 08:24 AM

I really don't think LJ is the problem... they just are not using him correctly and the plays concerning him are too predictable.

LJ is best when he is past the first level of defenders... so if they would start doing dump passes across the middle to him, or maybe run him on a play where the defense isn't stacking the box and expecting a run on lets say FIRST DOWN.... then I think LJ could be an elite runner again.

Who knows with regards to rushing yards stats because knowing how the coaching allocates blame is difficult for the fans to know, but my guess is that he will have little patience for RBs missing blocking assignments.

LJ wasn't the RB we should of started against that power defense .. Charles should of been the RB with off tackle running plays ... LJ should have a lot better game this week ....

When Larry was considered "elite", the Chiefs had arguably one of the most talented Offinsive lines in the ENTIRE history of the NFL.
If your line can open a golf cart-sized hole 8 times out of 10, you could put Fred Taylor in the backfield, TODAY, and he would look like God in shoulder pads.

That elite line MADE Larry Johnson. And now that it's gone, the true look of LJ's mettle can be seen by all.

Now the other day, an opinion was given to me regarding LJ "being cranky" when he's not getting his desired results on the field, and said condition causing him to get discouraged and effect his performance. **** his "cranky"! That is utterly unprofessional. The Chiefs are not paying this asshole to be "cranky", they are paying him to be a warrior, and to make plays happen.
I know we have a bad line. But let me let you in on a little secret; the Chiefs O-line has been THEE scapegoat ever since I began following this team 11 years ago. And I'm willing to bet it will continue to be so long after LJ is gone.

Which God willing, will be sooner rather than later.

2005 LJ averaged like 5.2 YPC...with Jordan Black playing LT for pretty much the whole season...Priest Holmes was the "starter" that year and was averaging something like 3.7 YPC...

That line was still above average with Roaf hurt and Vermeil still around...but still, he was a phenomenal runner that year with some offensive creativity and a competent line.

Our line is just ballsack now...everything we thought we knew about last year and the "gimmick" offense (Albert) is just an unknown...

Blick · 09-15-2009, 10:15 AM

I think it would help LJ if we showed more variety in the run game. I don't remember us running any counters or stretch plays. We also didn't run very many toss plays or off tackle plays, if I remember correctly. I don't understand why we don't try to run to the left side more...or run things to take advantage of Albert's athleticism. I think the only toss play we ran went to the right side, and Ray Lewis dumped LJ in the backfield for a 4 yard loss.

Battle should have been given a chance on Sunday.

There's a reason he wasn't.

The game plan was all about ball security.

If LJ gets more than 3 yards on any play I am happily stunned these days.
