It could definitely be the end of the "cash cow" running back era here, and the start of RB by committee. It's just so much easier to find 2-3 specialists, than it is to find a BAMF like the Charles, Petersons, Lynches of the world... And those guys don't last very long.

Most career YPC in NFL history. What numbers does he need?

His YPC is criminally underrated but most people seem to be more enamored by total rushing yards, which he'll need more of to have a chance of getting into the Hall. He'll also likely be haunted by playing for a losing team in a small market with no playoff wins, Super Bowl rings, and select few signature runs/big game performances.

We could hope for a Gale Sayers-esque entry but I wouldn't bet on it.

And that's a travesty given the fact that they let that bum Jerome Bettis in.

There is nothing wrong with drafting the RIGHT QB in the 1st, you just shouldn't draft just any QB in the 1st just because you want a QB in the first. Unfortunately, some of the CP geniuses put more stock in what round the QB is taken than in whether he is a good QB.

You're probably right, but total rushing yards is pretty meaningless because it puts more emphasis on longevity than effectiveness. YPC is a better gauge.

I agree wholeheartedly.

Just saying. The average casual fan never agrees.

In what 2 carries?

I don't agree that Charles is easily replaced but it's not like West has a sample size big enough to judge.

duuude, some running backs are cogs inna machine
this guy was special
JC would be hall of fame with a decent coach and/or Qb

he has been the only offense this team has had since he was drafted

5. whatever YPC with this line
you don't simply replace that production

Hence his acquiring of Willie Roaf, Trent Green, Priest Holmes, and Eddie Kennison pretty quickly. This team sucks. No LT, no guard play, no QB, and one WR on offense.

One CB, one DE, and two NTs and LB's on defense. Other than that, it's all JAGs. This is a monumental rebuild coming or it's gonna be many many seasons of suck.
no reason it can't be both
NO FAITH IN THE COACH
ANDY STAYS THE SUCK STAYS

I am sure you have all sorts of things to blow

one thing that has been fairly consistent in recent Chiefs teams has been a superstar running back. . its been one of the few brightspots on this horrid organization. .

tough break for Charles but it doesnt really change anything about the Chiefs season. . Its not like we were going to do good things and now this happened. .

In a way its good now we can actually tank the rest of the season and draft another failed lineman early!!!! There has to be an Oline or Dline bust out there that the Chiefs will love and draft

Go Chiefs. .

Yeah. PM Bob Dole.

He sometimes doesn't check his messages so send as many as you need to until he takes care of it for you.
