I hear he’s an assistant manager at Tanners now.

It is a bit frustrating we brought in JK Dobbins and then just decided CEH was better. Dobbins has 266 yards, 9.9 ypc so far through 2 games and is, you know, leading the league in rushing yards. The next worst thing is he's on the Chargers.

Scuttlebutt seems to be he wanted a chance to run the ball more than he would here. I think they would have needed to overpay to get him.

WTF is this?

We had an RB1. The Chargers didn't. The dude is comingoff an ACL tear. No one thought he'd hit the ground running, and no one would've thought tie goes to the Chiefs in this situation in a battle with the Chargers and others.

So, so sorry you're "frustrated." Boo hoo.

You know damn well Clark had to get the approval from his girls first. They’re around players all the time.

For those who are concerned about Hunt's age.

Alvin Kamara= 29 years old

Aaron Jones= 29 years old

Derrick Henry= 30 years old

Ezekiel Elliot= 29 years old

Joe Mixon= 28 years old

Christian Mccaffrey= 28 years old

Gus Edwards= 29 years old

James Conner= 29 years old

Raheem Mostert= 32 years old

Jamaal Williams= 29 years old

Austin Ekeler= 29 years old

All are playing in the league right now whether it's as the main back or in a committee. Kamara and Jones have been good this year and age 31 Motsert got 18 TD's. So let's just give Kareem a chance before we judge what he can bring to the team.

I still can’t believe they signed him.

How cool.

I bet Tyreek is going to be begging to get traded back to KC by the deadline after Miami falls deeper in their hole. Even though he knows that ship has sailed.

If teams play the light box like the Bengals did, Hunt can punish them. It's unfortunate that the Chiefs have to play this way, losing your WR1 and RB1 tends to limit your options.

Saw on FB that his new number will be 29.

We didn’t lose Rice…

Damn

Marcus Allen was 33 when we signed him and he played for 5 yrs. He did have low miles on the tires but that's pretty old for a rb.. Hunt might have some game in him too..

Is Rice WR1? I was under the impression that Hollywood Brown was WR1?

We sign another WR were right back on the tracks to threepeat. Not that we need to rush to sign anyway. Hopefully we can find a decent deal and Hunt will be good enough. I hope he can get a ring
