Mloe68 1,521 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Full circle with Ron Parker. Thanks for you service Ron as I had you pegged as our most underrated player only two seasons ago. But your time had passed. I'm guessing they must think Berry has a good shot to play? I thought we would probably keep Allen because of his versatility.

soonerborn77 276 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I’m reading it is less about Berry but DOD being able to play which will be huge because he needs to cover White out of the backfield... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense too. DOD had a contusion (which I think is a fancy way of saying bad bruise) so his return does seem very possible. He's another rookie who is emerging with a role in all facets of the game but on point he can handle that nickel safety type role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balto 723 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Will Ron still get a ring from our upcoming Super Bowl win? Can't remember how all that works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,210 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The question for LDT, like Berry, is how effective can he play after so much time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balto 723 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 "The NFL pays for the cost of 150 rings to the winning team, at roughly $5,000 apiece, depending upon the fluctuating cost of gold and diamonds. The winning team can typically present rings to whomever they choose, including usually, but not limited to: players (active roster or injured), coaches, trainers, executives, personnel, and general staff. Some teams have also been known to give rings to former players, despite not having been on the winning roster." Examples: Al harris was given a ring by the Packers in 2010-11 and he was dropped mid-season. The Colts gave Edgerrin James one after they won their superbowl even though he didn't play for the team at all that entire season and was on the Cardinals.

VIChiefsFan 262 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 This sounds to me like Berry may be ready to go. The question is, should Berry start? Was the two partial games he played earlier enough to get him in game shape and mentally ready for a championship game? I don't know, but I don't see what he is like in practice. I hope the coaches feel he is ready to go and an upgrade over what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the coaches feel he is ready to go and an upgrade over what we have. The choices are Lucas and Sorenson with Murray coming in at times or Berry and Lucas/Sorenson. I think Berry, if healthy would be best covering Gronk who beat the Chiefs in the first meeting this season. Gronk has slowed down and only caught a few passes in the last two Pats' games, but with the WRs they have, he could be a factor. I'd think Berry should come in a certain situations rather than playing full time for a partial game. Guess it all depends on how long they think he can go and how up to speed he is. No sense saving anything for the SB, gotta win this Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidfriend 1,151 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The key difference this time around is they no longer have Josh Gordon. If Berry is back and the 2 brokedicks can entertain eachother, it'll free up some focus to stuff the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 How brutal would it be to get released 5 days before the AFC Championship game. Something tells me he will be here with the team regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes the one that should be grateful. If it werent for an injury that dude would have watched the whole season from his couch. Instead he made over $900k this year for looking confused.

And he's given a ton of quality minutes to this franchise the last 5 seasons and played in almost 80 percent of the snaps this year. I'm not disagreeing with the move at all. But I feel bad for the person who has given a ton to this franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FANATIC 852 Posted January 15, 2019 Author Share Posted January 15, 2019 So only 3 safties active if Berry is not? Berry must be available if only limited. How about the 4th quarter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt KC goes into the game with 3 safeties. I am hoping Berry plays some. Even just a few key situations. The other negative stuff is for the off season. If he cant go maybe the IR him and resign Parker. 3 active safeties against NE is risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would defintely agree with this except if DOD is active he really plays that nickel safety role more than a true ILB. Probably our best guy at cover RBs.
