Close call- Miami Dolphins beat Kansas City 38-31 to go to 10-5

Posted by Bill Jempty · Published: December 22, 2008

It was the fins version of the ice bowl. Supposedly the coldest game time temperature in franchise history(Does someone really keep stats on such nonsense?) and Miami needed a win to keep any realistic hope for the playoffs. The Dolphins won but it wasn't pretty. In spite of the cold... [Full Story]

Posted by Bill Jempty · Published: December 8, 2008

The 48-year-old Dane, who scored 2,544 points during his 25-year career, played for the Atlanta Falcons the past two seasons... [Full Story]

Priest Retiring Again

Posted by Dan Zinski · Published: November 21, 2007

Priest Holmes's attempt at a comeback was a valiant one, but the Chiefs running back has now decided to call it quits for good after experiencing a recurrence of symptoms related to the neck problems that kept him out for 18 months. Priest became concerned after taking three good licks... [Full Story]

Preseason Game 1: What I Learned

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: August 14, 2005

As always, cross-posted on my own blog. To tell the truth, I couldn't even watch the game. It wasn't aired in Hawaii and I didn't have time to "watch" the play-by-play on NFL.com. So I'm dependent on reading other views and evaluating what they say by how they say it,... [Full Story]

WR Analysis: Who Makes the Team?

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: August 14, 2005

We've got almost an embarassment of riches with the WRs right now, I think. Although, maybe "riches" isn't the right word, because I'm not convinced there's a true #1 receiver among them. Cross-posted at my new site, Chiefly Musings.... [Full Story]

Stop That Nonsense Right Now!

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: August 2, 2005

What nonsense, you ask? Well, lately, I've seen a comment come up, sometimes in the form of a question: Fans just want the defense to be middle of the pack... Not this fan. Okay, here's the thing. Remember the first half of 2003, when the Chiefs started out so well?... [Full Story]

Why The Chiefs Must Win the Superbowl This Year

Future Hall of Famers (near-lock): Willie Roaf Will Shields Dante Hall Tony Gonzales Priest Holmes Sure, TG and Dante probably need another record-breaking season or several more seasons of being dangerous weapons before they become a lock. Priest may have problems since he lost so many games to injury and... [Full Story]

Question Marks

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: July 28, 2005

Ivan Carter read my blog! Ivan Carter read my blog! [big grin] But when he stopped by, he left some good questions that are worth re-addressing. I should admit that nothing is certain. The defense could still stink. The offense could finally rattle and wheeze and grind to a halt.... [Full Story]

Arrowhead Stadium: Move 'Em Out

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: July 27, 2005 · Comments (10)

I've never been to see a game at Arrowhead Stadium; that probably affects my viewpoint. Bottom line: The Chiefs are very good for Kansas City. They get tons of free advertising every week in every game. The least the county could do is keep their stadium up to the minimum... [Full Story]

Chiefs Sign 3 Picks; 5 Total; Derrick Johnson Not One of Them

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: July 27, 2005

I'm not all that concerned about Derrick Johnson not being signed yet. Now, I'm not exactly excited that he's not signed. He's fast, even on NFL terms. He's a playmaker, even on NFL terms. He's a significant addition, even on NFL terms. He's the one guy who could come in... [Full Story]

Chiefs Don't Need the Law

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 28, 2005

In fact, we shouldn't even want him. At all. Here's my thinking: Last year, the Chiefs were actually pretty good at stopping the run...for 2-3 quarters. If you look at the statistics, opponents ran on the Chiefs more than the average team, and they usually had average or below-average ypc... [Full Story]

Derrick Johnson

Where are all the other NFL fan/writers??? Anyway, I can't tell you how much things like this excite me: From SI's Peter King: I visited Chiefs camp last Wednesday, and one player stood out above the rest: Derrick Johnson. He's the rookie linebacker from Texas taken by Kansas City in... [Full Story]

DT or WR?

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 18, 2005

Payzone asks a good question in the comments to this post: Now that Az-Zahir Hakim decided to go to the New Orleans Saints (although he reached an agreement with the Chiefs, he had not yet signed the contract), should the Chiefs go after a WR or a DT? I'd have... [Full Story]

Advantage: Brainfertilizer!

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 11, 2005

Remember this caveated prediction? Don't ever doubt me again. Yeah, sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. I could wish, perhaps, that I'd been more definitive in my prediction, but the main thing that would prevent KC from signing him was if he attracted interest from another team.... [Full Story]

Freddie Mitchell to Play for KC?

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 4, 2005 · Comments (1)

I first heard this from another KC Chiefs fan, and pretty much discounted it immediately based on Mitchell's character problems. But it appears I may have dismissed him too easily. Check out this report. There's a few interesting aspects to this report. First, KC is actually considering it. They aren't... [Full Story]

Preliminary Roster Guesses, 2005

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 2, 2005

Every year I try to guess what the final roster is going to look like. I usually have many of the back-ups wrong, and occasionally someone I think is going to start ends up being cut. But I like to make my guesses, anyway. This year is no different, just... [Full Story]

The Chiefs' WR Corps

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 28, 2005

The only real objection I have to the Rand article I linked in the previous piece is when he says the Chiefs have done little/nothing to groom replacements for Eddie Kennison and Johnny Morton. Okay, Dante Hall isn't the answer. His best talent is returning kicks. He can score from... [Full Story]

The Chief's Chances This Upcoming Season

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 28, 2005

Check out this article for tangential references. Free agents don't always work out. People get old. Johnny Morton could get cut for salary cap reasons. Priest Holmes' body might finally give up/out. Derrick Johnson might not perform as well at the NFL level. So, yeah, there are some caveats to... [Full Story]

KC's 2005 NFL Draft: Interim Thoughts

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 24, 2005

How can anyone not like KC's draft this year? 1st Round: Derrick Johnson, LB. He won All-Everything his senior year; considered a top-5 pick that fell because the teams ahead of KC were drafting for specific needs; some analysts consider him the best defensive player in the draft. With this... [Full Story]

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 23, 2005

The Kansas City Chiefs pick Derrick Johnson. I'm tickled pink about this selection. The Chiefs had addressed every position on defense even before the draft, finally making the trade for Patrick Surtain just yesterday. That already gave them a Pro-Bowler at CB, Safety, and LB, plus a 3-year starter to... [Full Story]

Ouch! (But Probably Accurate)

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: March 7, 2005

Lesson #4: Drafting and developing defensive talent is the best way to go and it’s the major reason the Chiefs are having problems on that side of the ball. Of the 21 players who made a significant contribution to the Chiefs defense in 2004, 15 came through the draft. In... [Full Story]

Kansas City Embarasses Denver

Wow! I expected the Denver-KC series to be a home-and-home split, but sheesh! --I didn't expect the Chiefs to make the Broncos look that inept! A coupla thoughts: between the resurgence of Eddie Kennison and the development of Samie Parker, I think KC may be set up okay at wide... [Full Story]

Hm. The Chiefs Actually Win. Huh.

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: December 5, 2004

I should be excited, but it's hard to get very happy when there is no hope for the playoffs. However, I did see some good things. First, Larry Johnson is an excellent running back. If we have to trade him, and can trade him, we should get a 1st-round pick... [Full Story]
