Jamaal Charles Injury Could Signal End of an Era for Kansas City Chiefs
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2...as-city-chiefs


The Kansas City Chiefs didn't just lose a battle with the Chicago Bears on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium, but with star running back Jamaal Charles suffering what appears to be a season-ending knee injury, the Chiefs might also have lost the war.

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the team announced following the heartbreaking 18-17 loss that initial reports indicate Charles tore his right ACL in the third quarter, which would almost certainly spell an early end to the perennial Pro Bowler's eighth NFL season.

And considering Charles is by far the most electric player on an offense that lacks electricity, that would also spoil any hope the Chiefs might be able to fight back from a 1-4 start in the tough AFC West.

Charles wasn't just the best thing the Chiefs had going on offense, but he was pretty close to the only thing they had going for them on that side of the ball.

Checkdown-happy quarterback Alex Smith, who completed just 16-of-30 passes for 181 yards in Sunday's loss, has clear limitations, and top receiving options Jeremy Maclin and Travis Kelce are supposed to be key cogs but aren't the types of players who can carry an offense.

And while these types of situations can sometimes give life to backup running backs who shock the world, the Chiefs might not want to get their hopes up on Charcandrick West and Knile Davis, who had just 33 yards on nine carries in relief of the star on Sunday. West was undrafted out of Abilene Christian last year, while Davis has averaged just 3.4 yards per carry three years into his career.

Meanwhile, Charles entered Sunday's game averaging 5.2 yards per rushing attempt, which ranked second in football among 21 backs with at least 50 carries in the first four weeks.

Hopefully West. West is running at 4 YPA and Davis isn't even at 3 is he?

EDIT: Davis is at 2.5 ypa... **** Davis.

I think you are being sarcastic as the entire second half yesterday proves that your statement won't happen.

They pretty much dropped the ball on the OL three years running, AS looks like he is flustered when the ball is snapped.

Another CB, and 2 Ol, and 2 Lbs, and 2 WRs, and yea QB we are SB ready.

Suck for Luck year

Charles ability to get small in the trenches with a mediocre line at best all of his career with the biggest ypc avg is very commendable but HOF worthy ? Nah. TDs to match, staying healthy and playing big in BIG playoff games and actually winning them would seal the deal in the HOF for Charles. But that has never happened for him unfortunately.

I hope this marks the end of the era of the Chiefs being over-reliant on a star RB to carry their entire offense (and team for that matter).

During this era, which I'll define as starting with Priest Holmes (2001 season) through this season with Charles, the Chiefs collective record is 103-130, including 0-4 in the playoffs.

Priest Holmes, Larry Johnson, and Jamaal Charles were all great backs, but the Chiefs were too reliant on them at the expense of developing a franchise-caliber QB and a passing game that is necessary to win a Super Bowl in today's NFL (those who point to Seattle, underestimate the value of Russell Wilson).

Even with Trent Green... who put up great #'s, he was still part of an offense that relied on Priest Holmes/Larry Johnson with a passing game that was almost exclusively based on the playaction pass.

It is time to stop over-relying on the most fragile position with the shortest shelf life in all of sports (RB), and finally make it a priority as a franchise to invest/develop in a legit franchise QB and a 21st century passing game.

Pride.
I think it would be a mistake for them to cave to fan threats. CP "fans" are like petulant children who threw a temper tantrum to get their way. Now they think they can get their way every time by throwing a new temper tantrum. Clark Hunt and the Chiefs should do what they feel is best for the team and not let temper tantrums from an internet site run the team.

Can't wait to start seeing these comments:



Alex Smith would have turned it around this season, but Charles got injured. Alex will be awesome next year with a healthy Charles back!

He is the most complete RB in the NFL today.

He is amazing and absolutely more talented than a lot of backs that are already in the Hall, but I highly doubt he gets in.

Orthopedic surgeon tweeted that the chance of tearing an ACL in football is 1 in 1750. If you've torn an ACL....you've got a 1 in 33 chance of tearing the opposite ACL.
