Morning Update (Ready For LJ Edition)

by Joel Thorman on Oct 2, 2008 6:51 AM CDT in 2008 Kansas City Chiefs Campaign

Branden Albert is officially out against the Carolina Panthers.
The defense wants to feed off of the offense. For once.
The Brandon Carr experiment is turning out better to be better than advertised.
For those of you that haven't seen it, the Al Davis press conference earlier this week is a must see. Trust me.
After LT, AP and Michael Turner, the Panthers are ready for LJ.
The Panthers are having offensive line issues as well.
Many people predicted the AFC West and NFC South to be among the NFL's worth divisions. I'd say the West is winning that battle.
Bob Gretz lets us get to know Jake Delhomme's career path a little better.
It's good to know Chris is facing similar issues in India as he is here.

More to come on the Panthers directional run and pass tendencies so we can determine which Chiefs defensive player is going to have the biggest day.

Good call

Michael Turner, the leader, is going against GB.

Doesn't help that they lost

their best run stopper, Cullen Jenkins, for the season.

Good call not rushing Albert back.

Let him take the two weeks off.

However long it takes the injury to heal up. Dislocations of the major joints (knees, elbows, shoulders, etc) are rarely something to be brushed off as minor. This is a development year for Albert and his backup is solid…the team can afford to be cautious.

Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.
