oldtimer 8,684 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 here ya go haters..see who can do what now I for one would like to see Gore get a few carries https://fox4kc.com/sports/chiefs/clyde-edwards-helaire-to-miss-a-few-weeks-with-sprained-mcl/?fbclid=IwAR2wIzJUrKH3fBX9CovLLo5hggOsTy7YUILcqvxKV2mfVmDWuPGM-_GXR8o KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will be sidelined for some time after suffering a sprained MCL in the loss to the Buffalo Bills Sunday night. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the former LSU running back will miss a few weeks after the injury was determined to be less severe than it was immediately thought to be. Early in the third quarter of Sunday night’s home loss to the Buffalo Bills, Edwards-Helaire had to be helped off the field due to a left knee injury. The Chiefs now will turn to Williams and offseason signing Jerick McKinnon to line up in the backfield as they look to get back to winning ways. This season, Williams has carried the ball 26 for 99 yards and 2 touchdowns. He has added 7 catches for 45 yards coming our of the backfield. McKinnon has yet to see a consistent amount of snaps this season. He carried the ball for the first time in the loss to Buffalo and rushed for two yards.

moons314 2,463 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I'd imagine CEH is just about as fast with a bum knee as he was when healthy. sith13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azchief21 5,278 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I like Williams. Will be interesting if he can be productive as a #1 with more carries. Been wanting to see more McKinnon in this offense. If they bust, CEH will be back in few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFCWEST 1,238 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Another reason you dont use a #1 pick on a RB. Injuries. This position is no longer critical in todays Pass all you Want NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmes4six! 968 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 It’s good that it’s not as bad so hopefully he heals just fine. With that being said we will be seeing more Williams and McKinnon and maybe gore. This will be good to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thegoatee 1,780 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 At least for his own health, it isn’t serious and he should get better faster. Time to see if we are still not able to run against cover 2 four man rushes. This is clearly a position where we need to find someone in the offseason. CEH isn’t spectacular when healthy and will now have missed chunk of time in each season. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palangi 788 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 CEH placed on IR. Fountain released though? I really hate not seeing this kid get a chance and we continue to keep Kemp. I know, I know special teams…blah blah blah… we have enough special teams aces we don’t need to keep kemp for this purpose. Get some talent in at WR. https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2021/10/12/22723053/chiefs-officially-place-running-back-clyde-edwards-helaire-on-injured-reserve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calichief 3,016 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Give williams and McKinnon the rock. It will be fine. But stop with the shotgun rpo please. This line’s strength currently, is run blocking. Iluvhouse24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieHard 2,061 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Nothing wrong with Williams. I like CEH though. He legit also. McKinnon has the goods but fragile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to see how fragile he is. He has been in past but maybe less now. hope he gets involved with that speed. I also Think Daryl Williams has less negative plays than CEH which is huge.

Personally I think he's hesitating. Maybe he's confused or has another undisclosed injury... He's faster than he's showing... he's just not going 100% for whatever reason. You don't thrive in the SEC being slow. Either way, it sucks. All of us wanted to draft some defense with that 1st pick. But Andy doesn't care about D. It's not what he does.

But Andy doesn't care about D. It's not what he does. He's hesitating for sure. You can see it in his runs against Philly when he broke off those 15yd+ runs. You can see him trying to decide whether to keep running or cutback. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
