I like Haley. Get rid of the patty cack mentality that was in KC.

BS that he is still a starter.

I just read that Larry Johnson was told to stay away from the practice facilities until the team works out this issue. I think this spells the end of LJ. LJ sucks.

AJHawk50 · 10-27-2009, 01:02 PM

Just heard on espn that he is restricted from practicing or being at the Chiefs facility until they figure this out.

He hopefully won't be for long. Jamaal Charles should be starting for us anyway.

"I regret my actions. The words were used by me in frustration, and they were not appropriate," Johnson said. "I did not intend to offend anyone, but that is no excuse for what I said.

"I also want to apologize to all the kids who view athletes as role models. I was not a good role model yesterday and hopefully I can become a better role model."

Tuesday, the Chiefs said they and the NFL are continuing to investigate Johnson's alleged comments.

"Until that review is complete, the Chiefs have instructed Larry to refrain from practicing with the Chiefs or participating in other team activities," the team said in a statement. "A decision regarding Larry's status will be made once the investigation has concluded."

They should just cut him it is time for both the Chiefs and LJ to move on.

Just cut him.

vidae · 10-27-2009, 01:36 PM

That apology is **** and we all know it. He isn't sorry and he doesn't care. He's just worried that he might lose a paycheck or two and I hope he does. If this isn't a huge sign to Pioli/Haley that it's time to cut him loose I don't know what is.

Example 2 is Gregg Williams. I thought Gregg Williams was a terrible defensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars last year. Their once vaunted defense completely fell off the face of the earth once he got their hands on him last year. Now, his New Orleans defense is beasting, while the Jacksonville defense is still in complete disrepair because they have NO TALENT.

Biiingo. But, Williams has said numerous times that he did not get to fully run the defense in Jacksonville like he wanted to due to Del Rio wanting a lot of input with the defense.

I remember that. I remember watching Williams' defense in Jacksonville and thinking "this isn't a Greg Williams defense"

They played way too passively, and I think Del Rio had a lot of influence on that.

I absolutely loved what GW has brought to our defense. I hope he doesn't run off to become a head coach after the season, but he's brought toughness to that side of the ball. Having a healthy Tracy Porter, Jabari Greer (most underrated free agent pickup, he's been completely shut down for us) & Darren Sharper helps too.

looks like RB will need to be a higher priority either in FA or the draft

I always liked Jamaal Charles. I think if you got him a bruiser to spell him, he could be a starter.

The guy has talent and I really like him but I hold my breath every time he has the ball since he fumbles so much.

They tried to early in the season, but they simply didn't have the talent to pull it off. You can't be a blitz heavy team with no rushers and nobody who can cover; it just won't work. They realized this as the season wore on and started to revert back to the cover two.

He does have problems holding onto the ball.. and every time he touches it I worry it's going to hit the turf, but he is a hell of a lot more explosive than LJ and I think he deserves a shot.

I agree.

I have said for awhile he needs to get the ball more it sounds like he is going to get that chance its on him now.

I know a number of us here on this board have been saying we can't stand LJ and hope he's gone. I hope this is the first step to that becoming a reality.

And yeah, give Charles a chance and see what he can do.

Since the Chiefs are likely to pick in the top 5 again next year, who do you guys want them to target? I don't follow the Chiefs so I don't know who on that team has been good.

Their biggest need is by far OL but I'm not sure if there will be a OT worth that pick so they could go BPA with Eric Berry which would also fill a huge need.

Its really hard to say they have so many needs its way to early to say what they could do.
