If you are a Kansas City Chiefs fans, go back in time with me for a moment to about eight months ago. Do you remember how you felt?á Well, I do...and it was very optimistic, almost giddy as we headed into the NFL draft.The Chiefs were coming off of their worst season of all-time; things couldn't get any worse. The offseason couldn't come soon enough.á The Chiefs were finally rid of ...

I know what you're thinking, there's about as much chance for the Chiefs to beat the Steelers on Sunday as there is that Todd Haley and Mark Mangino were in the same Home-Ec class together.á It may not be a big chance or even a realistic chance, but there is a chance....there is always a chance. Therefore, I am going to make the exact blue-print for what ...

If you've listened to any of the Todd Haley press conferences in the past two weeks, you can sense the inner-struggle with the Chiefs head coach to remain positive regarding recent headlines.á You can also sense who he wants to be the Chiefs starting running back. More losses, turmoil surrounding the ex-Chiefs Larry Johnson, and a coach struggling to find any answers on the field are just a few ...

On the first day Larry Johnson was eligible to return to the Chiefs, they chose instead to cut him loose.á Instead of the open-arm treatment after another loss, they gave him the pink slip. Johnson has been shelved for the past two weeks due to a suspension stemming from "conduct detrimental to the team."á After a few public 'gay slurs' and comments attacking the credibility of the head coach, the Chiefs ...

About three hours after I wrote about how the Chiefs probably shouldn't sign Chambers, they do.Apparently, there were other teams interested in Chambers, but it was Scott Pioli who pulled the trigger and claimed him. The issue will be that if the Chiefs decide to sign him after "claiming" him will owe him $2.4 million for the rest of the season, which is only nine more games.Chambers is 31 years ...

One of the San Diego Chargers' key receivers over the past year and a half has been released by the team the day after the team beat the Raiders 24-16. Chris Chambers made a very important catch in that game that helped the team secure the victory. However, after 31 games played with the Chargers, they let him go, oddly after the trade deadline had already passed. Norv Turner suggested a few reasons ...

After an investigation into the Larry Johnson 'gay slur' incident(s), the Chiefs organization issued a two week suspension to the troubled running back. According to the Kansas City Star, Johnson was issued this suspension from the team based on "conduct detrimental to the team". Johnson's suspension will leave him banned from all team functions until Nov. 9, which is the day after the week 9 game against Jacksonville.á With the bye week ...

After a 37-7 beating the Chiefs took in front of their own fans, San Diego did everything but take our lunch money on Sunday. The elements made for an ugly game from the start, but the Chiefs competitiveness made it even uglier as the Chiefs surrendered with fifteen minutes left in the game.á The first quarter flew by with the Chiefs facing a 14-point deficit. As the Chiefs entered the second ...

Derrick Johnson, Larry Johnson, and I think even Magic Johnson were said to be on the Chiefs "chopping" block approaching the trade deadline.á As Oct. 20 came and went, the Chiefs were left with only one pre-deadline transaction.á The Chiefs ended up trading Nose Tackle Tank Tyler to the Carolina Panthers for a fifth-round 2010 pick in the draft.á Yaaawwwnnnnnn.á Where were the fireworks, where was the Derrick Johnson trade or ...

The question is, "What happens when you lose to the Chiefs?" áWell, in the case of the Washington Redskins, it turns your entire season upside down. Not that the Redskins weren't already aware of their internal issues before Sunday's 14-6 loss to the Chiefs, it's just that losing to an 0-5 team may have sealed head coach Jim Zorn's fate as leader of the troops. Immediately after the loss on their ...
