Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Makes a ton of sense. Chargers game is more important and he gets extra time off from soreness that comes from not playing for months. Adam Schefter Chiefs’ S Eric Berry, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a heel injury, is not expected to play vs the Ravens but Kansas City is preparing him to play Thursday night vs. the Chargers, per source.

jetlord 10,210 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Berry, if healthy and in game shape, would give the defense a whole new look. They need him against the Chargers and Seahawks. Those are the two critical games remaining in the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berry likely will not be a big factor his first few games. Its been forever since he has played a game. Will help in play-offs if he makes it that far.

I'm more in the camp that he wont be a big factor this year regardless, not playing for almost 2 full seasons is a very high hurdle.. that being said he's over come a lot in these last few years so I wouldn't be bettn against him but then I'm not a bettn man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I have seen teams "will" victories just because of an emotional event. This Thursday, Gonzo is inducted to the Ring and Berry is coming back. The stadium will be packed and rocking for this game. Rivers tends to choke in big games.

sith13 1,746 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Regardless of his shape Berry will definitely be a factor. We have Safeties that get pushed back 5 yards when making a successful tackle. I doubt Berry will be his old self this year but even half of that would be a huge upgrade to what we have now.

The adrenaline rush does miracles on boo boos. Look at Hill on that last catch. Running like a mad man until he hit the sideline then started limping. I had heard he hurt the foot earlier in the game on a kick return. The excitement of being back on the field, playing in primetime on Thursday night, against an AFC West opponent for possibly not only the AFC West title but the #1 seed oh and drawing energy from the crazy ass fans I believe adrenaline will propel Berry to play like his old self. May be a little slower but his instincts and reaction will improve the D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANATIC 852 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Sam MellingerVerified account @mellinger 21m21 minutes ago More Chiefs are hopeful but not certain that Eric Berry will make his 2018 debut against the Chargers on Thursday.

Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Supposed to be cold, rainy and windy. New challenge for Mahomes but a scenario a good in the box run stuffing safety could really help. Tough first game back conditions for Berry’s heel for sure though.

I wonder if they will throw Melvin Gordon back out there in those conditions. RBs importance should be elevated in that scenario which makes me think they will. Also consider it’s still 3 days off and weather people have been known to be wrong. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FANATIC 852 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 If its wet I doubt any player with knee , foot or leg issues plays. Wet field is a recipe for a bigger injury. Mahomes grew up in Texas and is used to playing in cold weather. Rivers is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chargers top two RBs won’t play. Kind of puts us on even terms because Ware is very iffy too. Tyreek clearly won’t be close to 100 percent either. Real gut check time in a short week. I don’t think cold matters as much as rain and wind when it comes to the QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
