Has anyone mentioned that the Chiefs are the only team without a passing TD to a wide receiver this season?

If we really have two rookies playing the right side, I fully expect to see overload blitzes and/or stunts on that side on every single play.

Wow, that is a crazy thread.

Really? That would be strange.

Hughes is the man. Damn I hope we can keep him and Dareus.

Walking Dead?

Just checking to see how confident (or not) everybody is for these next two crucial games.

All I have to say is...

Game of Thrones...absolutely. My buddy at work says Dexter was a great show, but I haven't seen it. He got me hooked on Breaking Bad.

Cool, I was wondering when this would turn into an EJ/Hackett bashing thread.

It will definitely be interesting to see how he does with a real offense around him.

Here's a question for the old timers as well...if the Bills had beaten the Chiefs in '66, how do you think they would have fared against Green Bay in SB I? Would they have matched up any better than KC did?

What, no love for Wannstedt?

Awesome stuff, thanks for sharing. The Dog and Doug show!

Few papers are as accomplished at headlines as the NY Daily News.

Yep. Basically it's like scraping away the dead bone back to where it's healthy with a blood supply.

I didn't see any specifics, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was a debridement of the infected bone.

Tough stuff. These are the things I treat all the time, and they can be very tough when they get into the bone. Often they don't cause tremendous discomfort (unlike scrotal MRSA, good heavens), but it's very hard to eliminate infections once they get into the bone, even with antibiotics. Usually it requires surgery to debride the infected bone as well. He'll try a two month course of antibiotics and see how it goes, and hopefully we don't hear about it again.

The implication being, we don't play until a week from Sunday, so not much changes for our playoff tracking until well into November.

It's strange to think, but it seems like the prevailing thought is that we got all those turnovers but "settled" for FGs. But we scored 5 TDs and 3 FGs in that game. Can't really ask for much more than that.

Thanks, good stuff there. Nice to be thinking about these things well into November, for a change.

I think you have the right idea. In any case, I really really really really hope they can keep this defensive line together for a few more years.

Interesting that the teams in each division are sorted by point differential rather than wins.

If Kiko was playing this year, maybe. Let's hope they can find a way to keep that D-line together a little longer. Next year, with a year of experience in Schwartz's system under their belts and a fresh Kiko, who knows...

Says you...
