Lamardirts 2,114 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 We didn't even sniff at Justin Houston......I think Balto is right. Zero chance. Sad because he probably cost us a SB. What a great complementary back for Pat Mahomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moons314 2,463 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Hunt is more talented than any back we have on the roster, but the past is too toxic in the modern culture. If it were my decision, the PC crowd wouldn't phase me, it's that our refusal to run the ball has soured me on running backs. I'm pretty much at the point we may as just use receivers in the backfield when we're not lined up empty. There's no point in tempting the headlines for a player at a position that Reid won't use.

Burpo The Mad Clown 5,556 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Hunt is at or near the end of his shelf life. The current rotation of backs is more than adequate with this offensive line, which is only getting better. Why pay for another RB to sit on the bench while Andy forces the pass against drop 8 defenses? No doubt, the fiasco resulting in his departure left a bad enough taste that he will forever be unwelcome at 1 Arrowhead Dr. West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHard 2,061 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Hunt and a pair of FA WRs? Sounds like nothing left to spend on D. I think Hunt will be expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Such a decision wouldn't be up to Veach or Reid, Clark would have to sign off on him and I doubt that's even an option. West 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer 8,686 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 with Reid's history of rehab projects and being Hunt paid his dues going through his suspension & staying out of trouble it is not out of the question IF Hunt apologizes with hat in hand. That being said I thought that bridge had been burnt from both ends. Highly doubtful IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calichief 3,016 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I’d love him back. Only guy Reid ever truly ran the ball with. May have another Super Bowl had he not decided to be a clown. oldtimer and qnet 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahomes and Hunt, those two players alone would have made it so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds strange but we ran the ball more times for more yards last year than we did the year Hunt won the rushing title. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmes4six! 968 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 If the chiefs brass are willing to put the past behind them I think they should go get hunt. He changes this offense and with teams playing two deep shell we need a back that can do everything. Block catch run and short yardage. Only issue is if Reid uses him. His presence alone in the backfield may alter how defenses approach us. my thoughts anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting, I didn't know that. After looking at the stats that's true, but Hunt was gaining more yards per rush by himself vs the combo of backs we used in 21. His runs, from what I remember where much more punishing to the other team, both physically and mentally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetlord 10,209 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I can't imagine any way Hunt would allow Hunt back on the team. Lying to the boss's face isn't a way to find employment. qnet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt presented the threat of the run. He presented a threat in the passing game. He was a tremendous blocker. No one respects the run game now: obviously.

Specialists that excel in any of those areas are always nice but a solid threat in both the run and the pass game (both as a receiver and a blocker) enables the offense to reach new heights.
