Seriously fuck him. He can't play when it really matters? Can't come in for the last drive of the game, because he tore his pussy? What was the point in him playing at all? He didn't look tired and didn't look hurt, so why couldn't he play for 10 more plays? He could have probably helped a lot on that final drive. Worthless fuck [Reply]

Clark Hunt would be ****ing owner of the year.
And does anyone even know if the chiefs could or even did take out a policy covering it themselves?
Paying Berry was stupid from the get go. Imagine not having that albatross of a contract on the books. We could actually put together a competent defense. [Reply]

If he didn't get hurt, the contract would be bad, but we'd have a competent defense. It's not his contract that fucked us. It's him playing basically no games while on the contract. If he'd continued playing like he did in 2016, I wouldn't give 2 shits what we're paying him. [Reply]

And neither would anyone else. The problem now is that we have two seasons of Berry doing nothing to fix his Haglunds, just hanging about and acting like the condition is somehow going to magically clear up and go on its way. And then when he finally DOES play, its absolutely atrocious. The guy looks like he's running in mud on his way to the glue factory.
So rather than get surgery and spend all that down time rehabbing, we're now stuck with a guy that shows no signs of heading to the operating table, and whose play is not going to improve unless he does. And even then, his play may NOT improve if he were to get the surgery and then rehab for another 8 to 10 months due to all of the time he will have missed at that point!
It's a lose/lose for everyone. The only way to make anything resembling hay out of this mess is to do the June 1st cut and keep what we can. [Reply]

Nobody knows either way. He may have - but no one knows. Matt Derrick hadn't heard as of this week, he has inside the locker connections. Just FWIW [Reply]
Hate to say it, but it's time to cut bait with EB. Would not be surprised to see Earl Thomas go to the Chiefs or Cowboys. Would like Collins, but I think he'll be resigned in New York. [Reply]

His body has to be about done.
Want to throw this out there. Based on no info at all. Just something that had me wondering. Given all the treatments he's had to go through, which sucks, is there any chance there's something... Favre like... About the whole deal? Can't really blame him. Just wondering. [Reply]

If they cut Berry it has to be designated post June 1. But the problem is (I think) they still carry that cap # all through free agency. So it doesn't clear up much room for signing the bulk of the free agent class.
So even if they save $9M or whatever - who's still around to spend it on? At that point they might just decide to gambool and hope we get a full season of decent Berry. [Reply]
