Wilson: Chiefs' Derrick Johnson sounds off | National Football Post

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson is fed up, and he's not going to take it anymore.

Well, at least he's not going to keep his frustration to himself.

Johnson vented to Kansas City reporters today, getting it off his chest how mad he is that he's not starting and was the subject of trade rumors prior to the NFL deadline Tuesday.

"It sucks," Johnson said. "It kind of sucks to not be starting and not be playing like I should. I should be out there playing. I should be out there starting. I should be out there helping this team win."

Johnson said he has taken his complaints to coach Todd Haley, too.

"Coach knows I want to play," he said. "He knows I disagree with not playing. He knows that."

And Johnson said he avoided watching television because of the trade talks, calling the possibility of being moved to another team as "a possibility that something was going on."

That's not going to get him any more playing time...

Mc Daniels I haven't made a long term decision on, but Nolan is a hell of a lot better than Pendergrass.

Once the first game is lost then we will see the true Broncos. Problems will show their head soon.

Being a crybaby is no way to act. If he wants on the field, be better earn it. He wasn't setting the field on fire anyway. He's got a great guy to learn from out there, Mike Vrable. Maybe DJ needs to shut the f up, work harder, and earn his time. All these guys are learning that the Herm, cry and get my way days are over. If Haley would have let Bowe slack, let crybaby Waters get his way, and so on, we'd never get anywhere. It's good DJ's mad, maybe he'll start playing like we expect him to. And that starts on the practice field where he's obviously not getting it done.
