A lot of the negativity is not vile at all. And much of the blowback is warranted due to the way the situation was handled by both the organization and Berry, himself. But you insist on lumping all criticism of Berry and the way he has handled this situation into a single category of "Berry Bashers."

If teams don't play for the fans who do they play for? And in this instance, the fans have been strung along and left out of the loop in a way that seems a tad inconsiderate. And whether it is accurate or not, Berry's conduct post-cancer diagnosis has come across as selfish and unappreciative of the way the organization and fans stood by him during his recovery.

Wow. No shit, sherlock? Fans are frustrated with a top player getting paid top money at his position not playing because of a pain management issue despite the fact that the team thought he'd be ready by week 5 and our defense has been ****ing terrible all season? What a master of deductive reasoning.

He's done dude. He's not going to play anywhere else.

It won't help the Chiefs if he does. He's still on the books until his contract is up.

If he couldn't go last week I doubt he's magically better in one week.

Could be interesting if he's ready for the Super Bowl though - and our defense plays another lights out game against NE. Maybe you don't change the formula?

I don’t see it. He has them buffaloed and gets his check regardless. He could go just doesn’t want to. Willie Roaf could hardly walk and he was a bulldozer on game day.

Later Haglunds

Unlikely.

I'm not sure I want him to play at this point

It sucks but yeah Im not expecting anything

He does Zumba workouts that would kill a healthy triple-crown winning horse... So there's that.

The vitriol is all about lack of transparency. If he or the organization had come out just once and said ok, this is specifically,what the issue is, and the reason why it’s a day to day thing. But they haven’t, and so it’s just a distraction that no one needs, and makes him look like a pussy.

Haglunds came out of the locker room and seen his shadow, 6 more weeks of no playing time

I get the science behind the shadow, but I wonder what prompted the bum to get off his Zumba ass and venture outside?

The Gods couldn’t keep up with his workouts so he had to give them a break. That’s when he went outside.

I think it's safe to assume at this point ZERO teams are game planning for Eric Berry. This story is probably going to be the highlight of the off season.
