Just how important are the following intangibles:
Has a passion for the game, a leader both on-and-off the field, high football intelligence, smart, works hard at his craft, plays through pain, team leader, durable, great instincts, self motivated, highly respected team leader, and football must be the most important thing in his life?
For most teams, those qualities are highly desired. To other teams they mean little.
Scott Pioli said when he was hired ...
With the addition of what should be two new starters, I thought I would give you a few facts that the public is not aware of, along with some personal reflection on my part.
The Chiefs have made some positive moves this past week, but the team knows a lot more has to be done. They need a right tackle and depth.
I thought I would expand a bit and give some statistics you ...
Kansas City Chiefs: Finally Something To Cheer About !!
Posted: 23rd November 2009 by Ron Tepper in NFL
To say that Kansas City's upset over the Pittsburgh Steelers yesterday felt good is an understatement.
Maybe its just me, but through all their trials and tribulations this year, this win is the one I'll always remember. The "Never Say Die" Chiefs overcame all odds and managed to pull off something even fans couldn't have possibly expected.
I'll mention in passing that I live in Pittsburgh and have for the past 30 ...

Honestly, itáreally doesn't matter what the substance is, its the end result:
Suspension.
Who knowsáwhat the future holds in store.áOne ...
With one day before the trading deadline to go, Demarcus "Tank" Tyler is no longer a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. Tyler, another one of Herman Edwards "guys", was one on a long list of top Edwards draft picks that have been cast aside. I guess like many others, and a few more possibly to come, he just didn't "fit the system".
Its a shame actually. When the NFLáreached the ...

Posted: 14th October 2009 by Ron Tepper in NFL
According to the NFL Network, with the NFL trading deadline ending October 20th,áboth Glenn Dorsey and Derrick Johnson are on the trading block.
Is anyone shocked? Does anyone care?
Yes, it seems that the current "REGIME" is not happy with the progress of Dorsey. You know,áthe man who 1 year ago had the fans dancing in the streets as theá"Steal" of the greatest Chief Draft of all time and Cornerstone of the ...
When discussing theádiatribes of Chief GM Scott Pioli and Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator Todd Haley, a Chief fanámust never take what they say with a grain of salt. Its more appropriate to listenáwhile under the influence of Jack Daniels, or at least a few beers. Alcohol numbs the senses and makes you feel like everything makes sense. Believe me, I am not an advocate of getting drunk, but when it comes ...
