Via the mothership, we have this week's inactives for the Kansas City Chiefs:

Matt Gutierrez - 3rd QB
WR Quinten Lawrence
CB Mike Richardson
RB Dantrell Savage
G/T Ikechuku Ndukwe
WR Bobby Engram
TE Jake O’Connell
LB Pierre Walters

Ndukewe had a neck stinger earlier this week and he was listed on Friday's injury report so his snub his no surprise. TE Jake O'Connell and LB Pierre Walters have been inactive for a few weeks now, as has WR Quinten Lawrence.

CB Mike Richardson is brand new as of last week and a special teams body so his scratch is also no surprise. DE Wallace Gilberry was listed as probable on Friday with a head injury so it's good to see him not on this list.

WR Bobby Engram is a surprise scratch and I'm not sure what happened. More than likely it's just a numbers game.

Cowboys inactives are after the jump.

7 Stephen McGee - 3rd QB
11 WR Roy Williams
28 RB Felix Jones
36 S Michael Hamlin
43 S Gerald Sensabaugh
64 G Montrae Holland
77 T Pat McQuitan
98 LB Curtis Johnson

Ndukwe...

That one really hurts us. If Goff continues to struggle, we will have a long day…
Its a bummer about Engram. Hopefully its nothing serious.

to be fair...

Ndukwe was inactive last week, and has yet to be moved to RG, as far as I know…

so it shouldnt impact this game at all

Engram seems to be the odd man out on this WR corps. I bet he’s not hurt, just not in the gameplan

* "I doubt anyone will miss Connor Barth except UCrawford"
* the LB corps may become the biggest strength of the Chiefs in 2009
* The OL is NOT as bad as you think it is... give it time, and you'll see improvement this season

I just dont see how Copper is better than Engram.

Why is he even still on the team? I thought Ndukwe was practicing with the 2nd team at G…or was i just imagining that? I dont really remember. But i still think Ndukwe should start.

I hadn't heard that... but I hope Ndukwe IS

practicing at G, and setting up to take over Goff’s job

Wasnt it you who told me (When we were talking about the draft for next year)

That Ndukwe was a good G in Miami? I probably just got mixed up and thought he was practicing at Guard. Oh well. Special teams play…hmm, i see Engram around the ball on the time on Special Teams. But i dont even know Coppers # so i couldnt tell ya about him Lol.
