A couple of times, a couple of games. Prepare the syringe.
That very well could be what's happening. I've suspected for a while it's something like that. Like he knows he can go for 1-2 games then it will flair up too much to control. [Reply]

It would be hard for me to accuse any probowl player of wanting to sit on the sidelines vs. playing...especially a proven competitor like Berry. I just can't see him being that guy.
You absolutely know he's dying to get out there.
Now that Watkins is back, some of the other players are talking now about how bad he wanted to be out there and how frustrating it was for him. But I think as long as the player is still injured they're under some kind of gag order.
Which I don't get because one heartfelt interview from the player would change everything - instead of this silent treatment BS. But I guess they don't want to give anything away. I dunno. [Reply]

There's no way they cut Parker if they weren't sure. I refuse to believe they are that stupid. There's a lot of things we can accuse them of but I don't think stupid is one of them.
It’s not we used them against the Colts for much. They have made themselves expendable at this point. I get your reasoning but I just guess I’m not standing as close to the fire as you are. I hope EB29 is available and dressed but as for production it’s hard to get excited.
When you been on the Berry-Go-Round this long it’s hard not to feel a little sick [Reply]
Damn, some of you clowns need to grow up! Your childish takes on Berry is, well, childish! Same goes for those piss'n about DoD.
There isn't a player on our roster that wouldn't love to play this week, no matter how cold it is. They all want to play and help the team get that trophy and then on to the next game!
All of you haters needs to man up, stop being a child and bitching about childish reasons. Take your childish, personal beliefs ( above players health and team needs ) and shove them up your ass!
Berry will play this week and again in 2 weeks in his hometown of Atlanta, will make some big plays as he did the last time ( I was there ) he was there. [Reply]
DOD has been decent against the run. He hasn't been particularly good in pass coverage.
He's still very inconsistent and despite his athletic ability, the Chiefs need to execute even better against the Patriots than they did against the Colts.
DOD is a loss. But it isn't a HUGE loss like some are making it out to be. [Reply]
