IF we win, we really need him for the Super bowl. I want a 100% Chris Jones for that game!
IF we dont win it doesnt matter and I would have loved him out there to beat the Titans.
I think we can beat the Titans without him so I guess if he cant go I will pray we win this and have him for the BIG GAME!

Wolfson said she’s heard he had a really good day Saturday. Jones posted the picture yesterday and exchanged comments with Clark that left me thinking they know he’s ready to go.
Point being, they liked what they saw yesterday. [Reply]
The Chiefs might be missing one of their best players Sunday.
Chris Jones plans to test his injured calf pregame but there's not a lot of optimism that he'll be available for the AFC Championship Game against the Titans, NFL Network's James Palmer reported. The Kansas City defensive tackle sat out the Divisional Round after suffering the leg injury days before in practice.
Jones tested his calf in pregame last week, with Palmer adding he wasn't close to being able to play. The fourth-year veteran earned his first Pro Bowl nod this season after registering a team-high nine sacks.
The Chiefs don't have the same health concerns for their All-Pro tight end. There is no question Travis Kelce will play Sunday, per Palmer. Kelce was battling a knee injury prior to the playoff opener and sustained a hamstring injury in the game. He still managed to score three touchdowns in the 51-31 win over the Texans.
Palmer reported the belief from the Chiefs is Kelce is actually healthier coming into Sunday than he was last week.
If Andy thinks they can beat the Titans without Jones he will be inactive for sure. I think Jones suits up today and depending on how the game goes he may be on a pitch count if it is somewhat ugly or if the game is in hand for most of it he stands on the sideline padded up but never sees the field. Remember this game is "all hands on deck". [Reply]

Yeah.
The goal is the SB. When we win we'll need him more next week... [Reply]

Well IF he does let's hope he does not have a "Thielan/Ingraham" situation occur.:-) [Reply]
