I love #4, but think #7 stinks.
We really have to turn that raiders streak around to the way God (undoubtedly a CHIEFS fan) intended.

Zeb:
I don't want ANYBODY hurt, but those are just some predictions based on Green's proclivity to being sacked (career: once every 10 attempts) and Gannon's risk taking with his 35 year old body. Sweep the Raidas! KCJ:eek: |

#1 Just don't see it happening. If so I really don't see Todd doing anything except a Warren Moon impression.
#2 No WAY!! ( willing to bet on that one) #3 Agree, He gets no respect. #4 Agreed #5 Don't know enough about him. #6 Agree, anything less than 10-0 and he will be badgered. #7 Nope it will be a split #8 Doubt it. Purely rumor. #9 Agreed but I think it will be more of the O learning curve. #10 History??? Sorry but that was Gun/Marty history. Yes all backs will get some work, but NOTHING like the rotation we've seen in the past. And I think it will be Holmes leading the pack UNLESS he gets hurt. |

#1 No chance. Green's good but not that good.
#2 Good possibility. Our young DB's worry me. #3 Good player, but I doubt if he's even voted to the Pro Bowl.Like John says, he gets no respect. #4 Gannon is tough. I think he'll survive again. #5 Who?? #6 A gimme. #7 I'll go 1-1 not because I think it will happen but because your scenario is too painful. #8 Wishfull thinking #9 Learning curve of PASS-MINDED offense. #10 Unless Holmes gets hurt, he will get the majority of carries.

Johnny,
Your amazing:rolleyes: The Lakers prove my point that you have to change with the times (in all sports) to be successful, your Jazz are not/were not, trying to change or add more players to help them out. Why wasn't Martyball successful? Wasn't able (stubborness and stupidity) to change with the times, it had to be his way or no way (thats sad) CG DV is the better HC, he has a Championship...and we all know that thats all that counts when you grade coaches

Chaplain,
Good to hear from you. Interesting prognostications...
1. Wishful thinking, but hope it happens (except for the Green injury). 2. Believeable...our secondary is suspect right now. I'll withhold judgment until after TC. If Robinson's D does "attack, attack, attack", resulting in numerous QB crushings and pressured throws, we may be pleasantly surpised. 3. Agreed, as long as he isn't dropping back into coverage 75% of the time. 4. Not hoping for Gannon to be injured, but if this prediction comes true, the season is a success in my book. 5. OK...anything that stuffs the run is good. 6. Agreed. 7. Ouch! I'd be willing to split with the Raiders to avoid this! 8. OK. 9. Not so sure. I give Saunders a bit more credit. 10. Disagree, but...if it works, I'll take it. #7 would definitely suck...I respect the Raiders; just can't stand Al Davis. But I <B>loathe</B> the Donkeys from the top on down, as evidenced by my signature.

Warrior 5,
Great to hear from YOU, sir! I think military analogies are worthy to be invoked here. Maybe you could identify for our civilian posters the skill and logistical (ie, blocking and tackling) support necessary to sustain the audacity and shock of an attack, attack, attack force. Basically, air power affects the battle, but ground power WINS it. KCJ 82nd ABN DIV |

Oh, and JOhn (welcome back, buddy!),
its not just Gun and Marty's history! 41 years of Chiefs history and only 1 RB has ever gotten more than 51% of the team's total rushing attempts: Okoye in '89 (under Marty, of ALL people!). The closest Hank Stram ever came to a 'featured' back was Mike Garrett in '68, who rushed 236 times (51% of the team's attempts). To put things in perspective, even Marv Levy succumbed to the spirit of RBbC: in 1978, the Chiefs rushed for over 2,900 yds (!) with no back gaining more than 483 yards. Vermiel is not immune to the spirit of RBbC and he is one injury away from employing it as well. Cody: I'll take Stockton and Malone 1000 times before taking Shaq and Kobe! See ya in the HOF, baby!

Knock off the sir stuff; all die-hard Chiefs fans are of equal rank!
Since you mentioned it, I did give a typical COA (course of action) on the Star BB just before the Rams game last year. Specific analogies I used were: Key Terrain = field position IPB (intelligence preparation of the battlefield) = reading defensive and offensive sets, and analysis of the terrain and weather in deciding on a COA. Deep Attack = primarily play-action pass deep. Fixing = O-line and TE blocking to support... Maneuver = moving the chains; rushing game. Fire Support = passing game, KOs, and punts. I <B>often</B> use football analogies to drive home concepts to the Majors attending CGSC here at Fort Leavenworth. Also, I begin each Friday class by announcing "It's Red Friday here in America's Heartland", and let the students wear the favorite team cap in class that day. Donkey fans wear caps at risk of their grades! Any jumps lately?

Warrior 5:
Great COA! That helps me see the battlefield better. Thanks! I bet Jimmy Raye used you COAs in that whopping 54-point performance. I have a jump tomorrow (Wednesday 30 May) at 1750 Time over Target on Sicily drop zone. I get thge distinct honor of being the #1 jumper (first out the door). |

Hey, Johnny. 41 years of Chiefs history? They have only been in KC since '63. I get 38 years. You aren't counting the Dallas Texans are you?

I can see you now...stepping forward after equipment check and yelling, "ALL OK, JUMPMASTER!". Then he points at you and yells, "STAND IN THE DOOR!"
Hope you had a great Memorial Day.

If for no other reason than being a Jazz fan, I'd take Mailman/Stockton over the Disfunctional duo...Kobe is an immature brat will millions, Shaq is subject to dilusions of grandeour(sp is horrendous), and they both hate each other.
Malone and Stockton are probably BOTH on viagra and old as the hills, but they are a team. They compliment each other and DON'T gripe and complain about who gets the glory. They don't win championchips, but I'd rather be proud of my good but not great team than ashamed of my winner...
