Such utter and complete bullshit. What leads a person to believe such nonsense?
Ask Mr. FAX. He is one of them. Plus he knows everything...:-) [Reply]

I've always been a homer myself. I can't, though, find an argument that puts Ware in the same stratosphere as Hunt. Hunt led the league in rushing as a rookie. Ware is slow and doesn't have insane vision/balance. Enjoy. [Reply]

I don't think most thought he was as good or better. But I think people believed he wouldn't be that much of a drop-off (certainly not as much as if we had lost our other key skill players). He didn't perform well today, but neither did the offensive line. And Ware only got 10% of reps in practice this past week.
I thought we'd get more production out of the RB spot today, but I'll reserve judgment until they have more time to actually craft a game plan for our new RBBC situation.
And finally, if Chiefs fans were trying to be blindly optimistic about Ware's abilities to shield them from the disappointment of the Hunt situation, who can blame them? It's been a rough few days for us all regardless which side of these debates you've been on. [Reply]

When people said there wouldn't be much of a drop off, at least I was thinking of the offense as a whole. We scored 40 points today. It was fine. [Reply]
