This place, and it's inexplicable infatuation with Kareem Hunt is hilarious.
Yes. Let's bring in a 27 year old brokedick running back who has missed 17 games since he left here due to injuries, because of some nostalgia factor that we refuse to let go of from his time at the very beginning of his career.
The guy isn't reliable. Mentally, OR physically. If you want a rb, draft one of these kids in April.
Kareem had his shot. He blew it. Facebook posts from daddy about the good old days aren't going to change anything.
It makes very little sense to bring the guy back. The distraction factor alone is a pain in the ass. [Reply]

17 games to injury??? Are you counting games he was suspended for??? [Reply]
I'm ALL in.......LET'S DO IT! Imagine the emotion in the locker room upon his return. Hell, I may even shed a tear. We would be dynamic again. Cleveland is stupid [Reply]
You add KH and a good WR2 to this offense and you can spend every other resource bolstering the defense.
Imagine him behind our O-Line and the threat of Mahomes creating light boxes......DAMN!!! Un****ingstoppable.......Plus, we used him in the passing game at an elite level. We haven't had a back take it to the house from distance since he left. [Reply]

I’m all for bringing Hunt back if that’s what the Chiefs want to do but the nostalgia around here is hilarious. He didn’t do half the things people “remember “. [Reply]

And all that power running people go ga-ga over kind of started to show its wear on his body.
He's still probably pretty good, but those midseason injuries like he had last year are only going to become more and more frequent.
I wouldn't be surprised if we brought him in and he ended up playing like nothing more than a glorified Darrell Williams. And if that happened, people would be back at it again with the "Andy Reid needs to be saved from himself!!!" idiocy. [Reply]

I was sitting in the endzone for that Broncos game where he jumped the safety and then trucked another dude for a TD. Arrowhead went crazy! His enormous debut in New England. I could go on and on. He is the perfect back in our system. He provided a physocal presence and attitude that weve been unable to find since he left. He likely has 2-3 high-level years left would love to see him back.

Let's be clear. When Andy had Smith he used Hunt and ran it a lot. Hunt led the league in rushing. Since Mahomes started he runs it less and less. [Reply]
