BTW- The Chiefs have 2 Players in the top 10 fastest times through Week 3.
Hill at - 3rd fastest 21.17 and is also at the 11 spot. Hunt - holds 9 and 10 spots- with the fastest clocked time in Week 1. Speed kills folks! 4 spots in the top 11 belong to the Chiefs. |

Hunt was taking so many shots yesterday. He took some glancing blows but watch some of those runs again where it looks like guys didn't really hit him because they didn't bring him down - those hits were HARD. And since he rarely goes down on first contact, he takes 2-3 extra shots per run. And then there were 2 or 3 times where he did get chopped down and I recall at least two of them looking nasty (the play where he laid the hit on the safety looked to ding him a bit also; you could see as he got up that he felt that one). Hunts style is bruising as hell and the staff needs to be cognizant of that. If they can keep him in that 15-18 touches/gm range and still win 12+ games, they need to try to do so. It's not about regular season success anymore - they need a fresh, productive Hunt in the post-season and the kid's going to have to deal with a rookie wall at some point (everyone does). I love how they're using him right now. Gotta have an eye on January.

I really really wish West was playing better. They need another running back to atleast be decent

We just need a better change of pace back because West isn't cutting t.

Ryan Mathews is still out there. I know he can't stay healthy but he did okay as a platoon back in Philly last year. Has tools that would seem to fit this system well. He's a bit fumble-prone and the neck thing last year must have scared people off. Just seems odd that he can't latch on anywhere. You would think he could be useful as a complementary player. Is Tre Mason just too big of a ****up to get another shot? Justin Forsett can't come in and give a few quality carries?

Giovani Bernard had 5 touches and the Bengals are 0-3. Trade for him!

I think we should try to get Akeem involved and see what he has to offer. I've liked what I've seen on ST's and I'm sick of seeing West in there.

I agree 100% with DJ.
Hunt is very strong and he's built like a rock, but it worries me seeing him taking shots to his shoulders, knees and hips. He got blasted twice by Addai and trucked him, but you could tell Kareem felt the blows. This kind of workload isn't sustainable for Hunt. By week 10 he's going to slow down because his body is beat up so bad. We absolutely need a quality #2 back.

shouldn't run him into the ground like we did Charles and Ware though, he'll need to be spelled with a competent and healthy back so that he's still smashing it come playoff time.. He's effective and I'm sure he's up for it but 18.6 touches a game is a little too much at this point of the season IMO

I just realized who Kareem Hunt is.
A big, strong RB who plays a lot faster than he times, is tough as shit to bring down and is always falling forward.
