    Default Jamaal Charles

    That guy was running like he was back in Austin stealing televisions. I hope we can develop him into the bad *** he appears to be...

    This is something I was saying last year. He is an explosive player that just needs a little polish and some blocking to be in the conversation with some of the most feared RB's in the league~

    JC is a stud! We are lucky to have him. He will be a great back!

    One of the very, very few bright spots on this team.

    its amazing what happens when you play your best players. also happy to see Haley figuring out the tools and capabilities Brad Cottam has to offer as well... ugh. i really should be on the staff at arrowhead. i've been railing for these guys (and DJ, Tank Tyler, Pollard, Tamba, etc) all last year, off season, training camp, and this season... and just NOW Haley figures his sh!t out.

    Please look at it from Haley's eyes. The guy had a fumbling problem in training camp, just as the chiefs had a dropping problems. It was widely reported that he was the best Rb in camp, but the one problem was his fumbles. If the coach does not trust a player he isn't going to play him. What happened on the kick of at the home opener? Charles fumbles the ball and pretty much set the mood for that game. If I was Haley, I woulnd't be ready to hand him the ball 27 times a game.

    I was not a huge fan of Charles, because I didn't trust him. I felt that a good hit would jar that ball loose. Everytime he touched the ball I feared the worste. I am pretty sure the game Charles was benched was due to his fumbling at practice.

    Now that LJ is gone and Kolby is again hurt Charles was forced into the role and embraced it. He fumbled a couple times, but he is working on protecting the ball better and is earning Trust. I still feel that way at times, but most of the time I expect good things now instead of the worste.

    People can sit here and critisize Haley for player moves but we do not see the whole picture. It is easy to point fingers with hind site.

    There was a price tag for Tank Tyler. Another team actually wanted him. I am guessing the offer was acceptable so they took it as an opportunity to rebuild, specially seeing that Ron Edwards isn't doing all that bad.

    Regarding DJ. I am his biggest fan, but he is not a 3/4 line backer. He belongs at OLB in a 4/3. I wish him luck next year, but he is clearly a liability for the Chiefs this year. I still think he is good enough and big enough to play in place of Vrabel but that won't happen.

    Pollard was openly arguing with Haley in the locker room. Given the heated exchanges he had on the field last year, and the heated temper of Haley. The two apparently had it out in the locker room neither to back down. The Chiefs felt it best to move on as they did with LJ specially with Brown there as a replacment At least that is what I have heard, so take it as rumor or fact????

    Tamba has played since day one and doing well. I don't even know why you are complaining about him.

    Charles has proven that he can be a good starting RB in the NFL. Hopefuly he is not just a one year wonder and stuggles the rest of his carrer.

    It's amazing that a head coach can somehow not know who his best players are.
