WR Laveranues Coles' Concussion a Big Break for Chiefs Secondary

via NFL.com

The New York Jets have ten, count 'em, ten players listed on their injury report so far this week. And only two of those players participated fully in practice on Wednesday, meaning they'll almost assuredly play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

OUT DNP LIMITED FULL
K Mike Nugent (right thigh) WR Laveranues Coles (head, thigh) TE Chris Baker (back) DT Kris Jenkins (back)
TE Bubba Franks (hip) WR Jerricho Cotchery (shoulder) LB Calvin Pace (foot)
T Damien Woody (calf) G Brandon Moore (foot)
S Eric Smith (head)

WR Coles actually has a concussion, as does safety Eric Smith. When asked about the injury, Coles said, "Unless any of y'all are going to fork over some cash, don't ask me no more damn questions about it. Talk to Eric and talk to the doctors."

The Chiefs only real injury is the strained groin of punter Dustin Colquitt, which is why the Chiefs signed punter Steve Weatherford earlier this week. Donnie Edwards will be back this week after dealing with an ankle injury.

The Jet's injuries, although unfortunate, do give a decent advantage to the Kansas City Chiefs. With their leading receiver Coles out of the lineup, the Chiefs young secondary may catch a break this week after literally watching the Carolina wide receiving corp run right through them in Week 5. The Titans didn't need to pass last week since they racked up 332 yards rushing the ball.

Even with the injuries, I'm stuck with the feeling that Brett Favre is going to shred the Chiefs' secondary.

Gotta love Chris

He can always find something positive to look forward to.

Hmmm

I read groin one place and “undisclosed” leg injury in another.

I hope its not his balls

aka Winslow

Winslow's was a staph infection

I guess a SI could lead to enlarged balls but I haven’t heard that from a legitimate source.

Yes....

…this will swing the game in our direction.

You're really running with this one

For someone who is supposedly a prophet, you better be right for credibility purposes.

I don't know man

It just feels like it’s going to happen. Do you ever have that? I didn’t feel anything like this before the last two games.

But I felt a little closer before the Broncos. I figured we’d make it respectable, but we ended up winning.

So shit man, it could be anything.

But we’re going to win.

You need

To be a motivational speaker in the Chiefs locker room! They have given up on that one guy giving rah-rah speeches!

maybe...

if it was a home game. But hey, I hope your instincts are good – I’d love for them to win.

It's gas

The feeling is gas. Trust me.

I felt rather "deflated"

after ripping my a$$ a new one. That does make a lot of sen….

NO! F*CK YOU! WE’RE GOING TO WIN! SMASH THEM!

With Coles out..

Now we can expect 400 yards rushing against us!

ummmmm yeah....

 I’m not saying he will, and I hope I am wrong, but I am starting Farve on my fantasy team.

What if we traded Tony G to the Packers for a 4th/6th

then sent those same picks to the Browns for Winslow? He is 7 years younger, plays at a high level, and wants out of Cleveland.

Go to Wide World of Roto for all your fantasy news!

And

He has knees that are going to cut his career short in another couple of years. I believe he’s had surgery on them every offseason. At this point he’s basically a wash with Gonzalez for longevity.

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