As you’ll recall, the week before the divisional round game against the Indianapolis Colts started out with a hopeful sign for Berry, when he was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday’s practice. But he did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday, was listed as questionable for the game, and did not play.

This week’s news is encouraging, with Berry listed as a full participant on both Wednesday and Thursday, With this report from Rapaport, it’s another sign that Berry could be on the field for Sunday’s game.

But as we have learned this season, Berry’s status can change quickly. We will keep you posted.

Heart says heel play
Brain says heel be day to day

Hope he can contribute. One great game against Gronk, we punch our ticket to Atlanta. As broken down as they both are, should be an even matchup.

I so hope to the football Gods that Berry can come back and be the player he was in 2016.

I mean that just makes our entire defense go from "meh, bend don't break" to "Really ****ing good".

Although I'm not expecting it. Maybe he can cover a gimpy Gronk and be a field general, and maybe that will be enough. I just can't see him having that same close in speed and coverage ability we're used to seeing (well, not anytime recently). But not playing for 2 seasons is going to have it's effects, and those handful or so snaps he's played this yr don't really mean much.

Brain says they cut Ron Parker to activate LDT when there were a half dozen other options, were Berry not ready to play.

BELIEVE!

But more importantly, what's his spirit say?

Spirit say
Tom Brady gay

Well, pedophile , but yeah...

That thought crossed my mind as well. That could certainly have been the tie-breaker for that decision.

The stars are aligning for the Chiefs' victory on Sunday.

Is this Tedi Bruschi?

My spirit says the Haglund > The Gronk.

Let's do this.
