Ah yes. Good 'ole #2 in the Chiefs jersey lexicon. Cursed? Perhaps.
Understandably, most of these #2s are kickers. Here are the NFL jersey number assignments by position , which have been in affect since 1973:
Numbers 1 to 19 are worn by quarterbacks, kickers, and punters .
Since 2004, wide receivers are... Read Full Story

So for this morning, we've got offense and defense to talk about, with Primetime's defensive coordinator post right below this one.

The Real Deal laughs at these first round busts.
Following up yesterday's discussion about who the all-time best first round pick is by the Chiefs, we now turn toward who is the worst first round pick of all time.
This should be fun.
I've got a bit of dilemma in getting the poll together though. It's easier to look back at the 1960s and 1970s and pick out the greatest players. But for someone who did not grow up that era, it's pretty difficult to pick out the first round busts... Read Full Story
As evidence by the release of second year receiver Will Franklin more than a month ago, Scott Pioli and Todd Haley have zero tolerance for underperforming players or players brought in by Herm Edwards whom they have nothing invested in. Franklin’s release was the result of Scott Pioli stealing a page out of father in law Bill Parcell’s playbook. The play is simple when you take over a team you cannot completely turn over a roster in just one off season so you release a player who appears to... Read Full Story

Kansas City Chiefs fans wallowed in misery the day former quarterbacks coach Dick Curl left the team for an assistant position with the St. Louis Rams on January 26th. No, it wasn't because he presided over arguably the worst set of quarterbacks in the NFL in 2007 and 2008. It's because, well, we'll never have another porn star name like Dick Curl again.
But Curl didn't exit Kansas City without leaving his stamp on the organization.
He's the one who... Read Full Story

Just a little bit we ago we learned that the Chiefs released veteran Patrick Surtain . We thought veteran Donnie Edwards might be close behind him.
Turns out it wasn't just Edwards that was cut.
The Chiefs released quarterback Damon Huard , cornerback Patrick Surtain and linebacker Donnie Edwards today. Also released was tight end Mike Merritt .
None of these moves are much of a surprise for those who have been following the Chiefs offseason... Read Full Story
Over two years ago, when QB Tyler Thigpen was claimed off of waivers by Herm Edwards and the Kansas City Chiefs , my post on the subject ended with this:
" Out of Coastal Carolina, Thigpen appears to be nothing more than a body at the no. 3 QB spot."
Eleven starts and sixteen game appearances later, I must confess I was wrong.
After the jump, I do my best to chronicle Tyler Beckham Thigpen's days as a Kansas City Chief.

On August 3rd, 2007, the... Read Full Story
Not much to say this morning. I'm still getting back in the groove but I was able to catch yesterday's "game" by the Kansas City Chiefs. Here are a couple of tidbits from yesterday.
Bye, bye Brodie
By far the biggest story to come out of yesterday's game was the knee injury of Brodie Croyle , which will sideline him for the rest of the year and presumably he will not start another NFL football game for the Kansas City Chiefs. Croyle has let down the team with injuries far too often in... Read Full Story
It's all need to know info, right?
One of the unverified rumors circling KC this week has been that Damon Huard asked to be taken out of the Raiders game, or that he had gotten on Herm's bad side and coach got fed up with him. Not sure if either of those is true but I wanted to throw them out there.
Brodie Croyle and Pat Surtain are the only Kansas City Chiefs not practicing according to the injury report . Looks like Nap Harris and Will Franklin are a go this weekend but I'm unsure... Read Full Story
The Kansas City Chiefs enter the off season full of questions, Who will be the next G.M.? Will the next G.M. keep Herm Edwards? Is Tony G going to stick around? Will L.J. finally get his wish to play for another team? But one of the most intriguing storylines of the off season will be what the Chiefs do at the QB position.
The Chiefs will have their shot at either Matt Stafford of Georgia or Sam Bradford of Oklahoma with the # 3 pick in the draft, there is no question the Chiefs will need... Read Full Story
