It's the same thing as the Kingsley issue. If they're going to 3-peat the coaches are going to give some of these guys some rope to see if they can develop and get better. I imagine they'll do that for Steele. They'll surely sign a veteran but I wouldn't be surprised if all the RBs split the workload. [Reply]
They aren't worse than last year, just injuries are the easiest way to have your season derailed.
It's early in the season I wouldn't take anything you are seeing as "this is the team the Chiefs are" it takes awhile for everything to round into form with how things are done now. [Reply]
not sure I agree with this but let's see what Steele has.
Andy Reid said just now the Chiefs planned to go with the RBs they have, which are Carson Steele and Samaje Perine with Keaontay Ingram and Emani Bailey on practice squad. Also, CEH is on IR and not eligible to be activated for two more weeks.

Imagine if Reid said, “man, this really fucking sucks. We might be fucked. Please anybody. Trade us a running back. We’ll give you whatever you want.” [Reply]

Yea, I mean it would be kinda funny but it's like Teicher doesn't even understand coach speak some 50 years later. [Reply]
Steele and Perine both can pass block and in my opinion be enough as runners to take advantage of the light boxes as we saw yesterday. They lack the explosion of a Pacheco, but I can easily see Steele being a guy who goes for 5, 3, 11, 6, 2, 8, and so on. A lot like Pacheco.
Surely we might have Pacheco back at full strength by postseason though. [Reply]

Hunt would probably kill just for the opportunity and do whatever it takes to succeed, that’s for sure.
He would absolutely stomp a bitch for the chance to be a Chief again. What? Too much? [Reply]

Always hated how Hunt's tenure ended in KC. Would love to see him get a second chance. [Reply]
