Exactly why he shouldn't have been part of the equation in a critical game. The guy will just not go away. He's an ass zit.

In efforts to avoid having a plunger shoved up my ass, I'm going to agree that Berry was rusty as hell. And anyone (including Bob Sutton) who thinks he can miraculously return from season long foot problems to being an All Pro safety is full of fermented monkey brains.
EVERYONE says there's being in shape and there's being in football shape. Clearly, the man was/is not in football shape. Yet many of my CP friends (and apparently even his DC) felt the man was ready to go in the biggest game of the year. My take, which of course is THE take, is that we need football players we can count on, and for the past 2 years, that has NOT been Eric Berry. Health issues are so darn hard to deal with both for the player AND the organization. Is Berry going to be healthy next year? How about Dee Ford? One approach would be to cross fingers and hope for the best. Another approach, however, might be to move on from ANYONE who exhibits recurring health issues. Yeah, that'd include both Berry and Ford (heck, and Morse too). I think I'm in the latter camp as my sense is that guys who are constantlly "dinged" more often than not stay constantly "dinged". With that, I do believe I'd move on from Berry, Ford and Morse. These guys simply cannot be counted on to give you a full season. (Oh, and if we're getting picky, you might want to throw Houston into the mix too although aside for the horrific knee injury I think he's been pretty reliable???) This is not to suggest that any of these guys are horrible football players nor that they don't give their all. BUT, for one reason or another, their bodies just don't seem to be able to hold up to the rigors of professional football. Very, very sad situation, but unfortunately, that's how it rolls. |

"The heel surgery could compromise Kansas City's ability to release Berry. An inability to pass a physical by March 15 could put the Chiefs on the hook for $7.25 million depending on the actual language of Berry's injury guarantee. If that's the case, only $2.3 million of 2019 cap space would be gained from the post-June 1 designation."
Well played Chad Speck. You, Mr. Berry & Mr. Haglund have bested the Chiefs' FO and the NFL. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/agents-take-heres-what-comes-next-for-chiefs-and-how-they-can-build-on-success/

If Eric Berry has surgery that prevents him from passing a physical, but also corrects his Haglund's deformity, then I am curious why anyone thinks he won't be back next year playing. If he's pain free, he should be able to resume play at a high level. You all want to complain that he's done because of the Haglund's Deformity, that we can't cut him due to the surgery to correct the Haglund's Deformity, but you don't think the surgery to fix the Haglund's Deformity will actually - you know - HELP.
I mean, I'd put more money on that happening than Earl Thomas coming back and playing at a high level. But, I forgot this is CP, where the future is absolutely known and will be always terrible. |

It will probably be another "day to day" extravaganza to start the season. And there is also the question of can a 30 year old NFL safety ever return close to his old form, coming off another major injury to his foot, and having only played in three games during the past two seasons. |

Without him the Underpass 4 would still be unknowns.

I dunno, it's not like Berry played well against the Patriots but most of the secondary is ass, I don't get why people are so bent out of shape about Berry sucking in a game when he barely played all year. I have no doubt he put in a better performance than Parker would have. Berry had 5 tackles including 1 stop and I'm willing to bet Parker would have whiffed on 3 of those 5.
People said that was Sorenson's "best game of the year" and he still gave up 75 yards in coverage on 8 targets and played like garbage with the exception of that good tackle on 4th and 1. His reception was pretty lucky, it's not like it was a result of great coverage. And we paid like $5m for that garbage this year. Lucas looks like he could be a decent rotational guy but was really a non factor in limited snaps. Ford got paid $9m this year to disappear like a god damn submarine in the biggest game of the year. I'd be considering cutting Berry if it wasn't for the injury thing as you gotta consider all options, but I have way more hope of Berry having an 1st quartile season next year than I am of Sorenson or Lucas or Murray being in the top 25% of safeties. |

Think about this sentence and then ask yourself why he decided not to go on IR then take a starting spot during the AFCCG.

Read the next sentence about Parker, or all the other sentences about how our whole safety group is basically a dumpster fire and EB was actually the best performing safety that game despite being rusty?

I'd just like to remind that the same Eric Berry who almost certainly sidelined himself for the past couple months just played 97 snaps in a game in the middle of winter.
We got screwed. |
