Chiefs coach: Steve Breaston is a backup right now

Earlier today we did this post wondering what in the heck has happened to Steve Breaston. The KC Chiefs receiver has had 10 combined snaps in the last two games. Not exactly the snaps you'd like to see from a guy over a year removed from a five-year contract.

Despite being listed ahead of Jon Baldwin on the depth chart, Breaston is a backup. This according to Romeo Crennel in Monday's press conference.

"Steve is a backup wide receiver right now," Crennel said, via comments sent out by the Chiefs. "And the number of reps he gets, I don't know how many he's going to get or when he's going to be called on and when he's going to be needed.

"And we've talked about it and I said you just have to be ready when you're called on and do the best you can when you get called. And that's the way every backup on the team has to do it. There are a lot of backups on the team that don't get reps, but if they get called on they have to go in and play."

Note that he said he's talked to Breaston about it.

This might make the upcoming trade deadline a little more interesting.

I've never said anything to the contrary - only that he could (and should) ploay better already.

I expect more from a receiver with his physical skill set, period. He could be as badass as Fitzgerald, who doesn't give a fuck less about who his QB is. He COULD be that good.

But he ain't.

Pioli signed Breaston, so that's kind of dumb. Baldwin was drafted to start oppostie Bowe. Time to take the diapars off and play.

Driving wheel?

What are your thoughts on Derrick Johnson? Is he a good tackler? How about Brandon Siler?

Hammock Parties · 10-16-2012, 02:33 PM

Bowe is going to be the all-time leading receiver in the history of this franchise if we are smart enough to re-sign him this offseason.

NOBODY had more yards or catches through their first 5 years with this team.

So suck on that.

kushed god · 10-16-2012, 02:33 PM

Pioli signed Breaston because Haley raved about him and how he knew his offense so well in Arizona playing opposite to Fitzgerald.

kushed god · 10-16-2012, 02:34 PM

Honestly, If Bowe and Albert aren't signed this year. I'm going to be ****ing pissed, I could see Bowe going to like Washington or Miami for more $.

But baldwin just doesn't look ready out ther - he tries to jump for every single ball.

again, it could be the "chicken-vs.-egg' situation as there are no QBs on the roster, but Breaston put up some decent numbers last year and displayed enough chemistry with the offense in general that not having him on the field is detrimental...

but maybe they feel like since the season is lost, that have to get Bladwin ready to play and that they already know what they have in Breaston??

Seems like you'd put the players with the best chance of winning on the field, but we know that isn't how they do things round these parts - gotta be part of "the right 53."

I hear ya man. I'm just tired of recievers running uncovered not even given a look and wide open recievers overthrown, underthrown, thrown under the bus because of shit passes. It's ridiculous. My frustration with this team is at a boiling point.

When healthy, DJ can take over a game. He can catch almost as well as Bowe, though (that was a joke, in case the sarcasm didn't translate.)

F8ck brandon Siler - I keep hearing about him and hearing about him, but I ain't seen shit.

Hope the answer was to your liking.

No he doesn't.

"but he has always had trouble catching the ball"

that's my point

"but he's never had a good qb"

even the sh*tty ones hit him in the hands occasionally; ironically, those are the passes he usually drops.

"shut up Black Bart - let's neg rep him"

I got viciously flamed for having an opinion and stating it. It may not be popular, but I have every single right to post it, and I think I proved my point very well, with FACTS. Sorry that a buncher of people with 14,000 posts and nothing better to do decided to gang up on the 'n00b' and show him what it's all about here at CP.

Facts remain that :

Dwayne Bowe has never once caught 90 balls a year (despite claims that he does 'year in and year out')

and

And to get back on topic,they would be better off starting Breaston over Baldwin, but won't because Breaston is a Haley guy and Baldwin is a P-holey guy.

Now you want to argue semantics. Whoopity doo!

I pulled the 90 out of my ass and I was wrong. It's closer to 75-80. And it's still 1100 yards.

You're WHOLE POINT was that Dwayne Bowe is NOT AN ELITE WR.

You're wrong.

I think it's funny you quote me in your sig though. You're too stupid to realize that an admission that he drops passes means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Roddy White drops passes. Jordy Nelson drops passes. Terrell Owens dropped passes for his entire career.

This isn't about dropped passes, it's about you wanting to weight the dropped passes WAY MORE than they actually are.

But by all means, continue on. It obviously makes you feel better, Don Quixote.

All of our WRs do that. Not just Baldwin. Bowe does it on nearly every catch.

That's because the QBs we have have "windows" measured in YARDS rather than FEET.

Bullshit.

You went off about him pointing at the back of his jersey and shit.

Stop changing the argument.

like the Baltimore game, cASShoLLLLLe tried to force it into double-coverage on either Bowe or Bladwin, but it got tipped up and picked...and Maneri was streaking wide open on a TE post down the middle. And the QB wasn't even rushed - he just sucked.

As usual.

You pulled that ONE thing out of the middle of a LIST of shit I posted about him.

Again, that 'pointing' wouldn't be a big deal, but his team is 1-5 and he isn't exactly playing great individually, I don't care how many catches he's on pace for. Winning cures everything; losing MAGNIFIES everything. D8ckhead needs to go out and concentrate on the game and not self-promotion. If you don't agree with that, then you probably don't have much moral character yourself.

I'm sorry you feel the need to carry on, but I feel as if i have proven my point, and I'm done with you - do find something else to do.
