Charles has a bruised knee!!

[penbrook]

Reid is optimistic that Charles will play against Arizona on Sunday.

He is listed as questionable for Sunday

You've been around here a year and haven't figured this place out yet?

Arizona isn't exactly doing any better than us lately. They don't run well.

Let's try to win a damn game. Who knows, the line is changing this week.

That's just not how this shit works.

Anyone that thinks I'm serious about JC needs a meter check, but last night had playoff caliber implications and intensity (from denver, atleast)... did last nights performance with so much on the line make you feel good about our chances IF we make the playoffs.

Better come out throwin'.

No Andy has to prove that he outthought Arians. Since they expect us to come out passing we won't do it.

No, of course not. I'm also trying to be realistic here.

We've got tons of flaws. We were hit by the injury bug worse than most any team. We've played one of the toughest schedules of most any team. We play in one of the best divisions in the league.

We also have to remember that we were no powerhouse this year in the first place. As far as talent is concerned, we had no business beating Denver or even keeping it close for that matter. They're just a horrible, horrible matchup for us.

Still, we played worse last night than we have all season with some of the most costly turnovers/missed opportunities and still only got beat by two scores.

We wouldn't beat the #1 or #2 seed in the playoffs but we definitely could snag a win at Indy or Cinci. We have one of the youngest rosters in the league and a culture that needs changing. This organization is starving for a playoff win. Get one of those and we just might start to see some change around this bitch.

You have to think about the long term here.

What's the reward for playing Jamaal Charles here on out... A wild card berth assuming they run the table? Are the Chiefs really a threat to do anything in the playoffs once they get there? Keeping in mind that everyone here knows this team isn't any better than it was last year when it was gifted a 28 point lead that was choked away.

So you're telling me the best case scenario is a first round playoff exit..

What's more than likely is they might win a game or two and miss the playoffs on tiebreakers. Worst case scenario is the Chiefs lose out and go 7-9 and JC gets hurt in one of those meaningless four games and his status next season is in doubt.

With his contract and his age it makes no sense to try and make a "win one for the gipper" charge this season and try and put the team in the best position to try and win next year.

I know that you know, that I know - that you know I'm going to pass. so I'm going to run. OR, maybe you don't know what i think you know.... / Reid

I mean, that stinks for him, but he's Jamaal ****ing Charles and it's a freakin bruised knee. Andy may as well have said that Charles woke up with a bad hair day, and that he's "optimistic" he'll play on Sunday

Chiefs win next week they are just a little over 50% to make the playoffs. Lose and it's 70% certain they're out.

There it is.

Show me a starting RB in this league that is 100% healthy at this point in the season.

[Rudy tossed tigger's salad]

I'm just kidding.

Well to start, best case scenario would obviously be a Super Bowl trophy.. And this isn't some true fan "if we just get in them anything can happen!" bullshit.

I recognize the fact that we aren't likely to do much of anything beyond the divisional round, I admitted as much in the post you quoted. I also recognize the fact that the intangible reward for making the playoffs and squeaking out even one win is far more valuable than picking 19 in the draft as opposed to 25.
