As a hedge against Jeff Wilkins' retirement talk, the Rams on Monday signed free-agent kicker Justin Medlock, a former All-American at UCLA. A fifth-round draft pick by Kansas City last year, Medlock played in one game with the Chiefs and connected on one of two field goal tries.

I've got a good feeling about Cundiff. He just needs some confidence.

Yep; knowing our luck though the Rams will go to the Super Bowl and he'll kick the game winning field goal.

Speaking of the Rams, just wondering if some of you in Missouri like to see the Rams do good (provided they don't harm the Chiefs, of course) since they are in the same state.

Here in Philly, there's a few Eagles fans that like the Steelers to do well since they are also a Pennsylvania team and also in a different conference (as the Rams and Chiefs are). But just a few. Most Eagle fans really don't care about the Steelers. Pittsburgh is a six hour drive from Philly anyway, so not exactly next door.

And the Rams are a pretty new MO team anyhow. Moved there in 1996 I think. So before there was the Cardinals in St. Louis until 1987. Wonder if any of you local Chiefs fans also used to kind of like the Cards since they were a MO team and in the NFC, so couldn't hurt the Chiefs (Except in head to head games. In which we always OWN the Cards anyway! :D ).

You're very close though. :D

But then, I am very close to the Ravens, Jets, and Giants. But there's like NO Ravens Jets or Giants fans here in Philly, heh!

The Rams can do the same to mine too but in 2001 I was very grateful to them for beating the Eagles in the NFC championship and thus shutting up all the fans here, HA!!!!:yahoo:

I've been trying to say we will do that since the off season began.

And I wasn't joking.

It doesn't take a psychic to understand the innermost football workings in Herm's simple little mind.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- The Kansas City Chiefs (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/teams/chiefs) signed kicker Billy Cundiff (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/6154) to a two-year contract Monday in an attempt to resolve one of their most glaring weaknesses from last season.


Kansas City used a fifth-round supplemental pick last year to take UCLA's Justin Medlock (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8414), but gave up on him in September. The Chiefs then turned to Dave Rayner (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/7378), who signed before the season after he was released by Green Bay but struggled and was released.


Veteran John Carney (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/549) played in the Chiefs' final five games, going 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts. Cundiff is expected to compete with Carney and Nick Novak (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/7505), who has played 16 games in the NFL and also signed with the Chiefs on Monday.


Cundiff signed as a rookie free agent with Dallas in 2002 and spent four seasons with the Cowboys. He played for New Orleans in 2006 and was waived by Atlanta before last season after attending training camp with the Falcons.


The Chiefs also agreed to two-year deals with five others Monday: safety Erick Harris (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8242), defensive tackle T.J. Jackson, cornerback Chad Johnson (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8603), tackle Joe Lobdell (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8660) and guard Rob Smith (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/nfl/players/8084).

Looks like I was partially right.

We have signed 2 kickers!
