Let bygones be bygones, it's time to win the Lamar Hunt Trophy!
QFT, it makes no sense to me. Berry can help us win, and at the end of the day, if we win this game, who really cares how long he was out this year? We need to get a W, and he is arguably one of our best players on defense even if he isn't 100%. [Reply]
Maybe docs have told Berry there is a chance of injury - if he plays - so bad that he might be unable to walk thereafter???? (the reason it's up to Reid or others...)
IDK.......but if he's on the field, we're probably a better defensive unit for it. [Reply]
I don't even see the point of putting Berry in front of the press at this point. He comes across as a loon. The fact that he has been a full participant in practice suggests that he will play. Better just to ignore everything he said. [Reply]

If that's true, how could it be anyone's decision but his own. Unless he wants to go and Reid doesn't want him to? If that's the case why is he practicing? [Reply]

Chiefs DB #23 Kendall Fuller has aligned as the slot CB over 75% of snaps this season
Chris Hogan’s season high in yards (78) came on just 4 targets against the Chiefs, 42 yards came on this rep against Fuller - plus defensive pass interference #PatriotsFilmpic.twitter.com/o3JfxijkcD

Not sure - maybe that opens the team up for negligence???? Either way - let's just hope he's out there, and makes a difference. [Reply]
I'll admit that this whole deal with Berry all year has kind of soured me on him. But if he can play the whole game this week and helps the Chiefs win, I'll be happy. Having him in there is definitely better than not having him in there. But not if he can't go a full game. I would guess that since he's been a full participant in practice all week that he will play the whole game this week. [Reply]
