#Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles (ankle) was participating in warm-ups and position drills during Friday's portion of practice open to media.

Dolphins say they have surpassed 70,000 in tickets sold for Sunday but have released some lower and mid-level tickets on their web site.@flasportsbuzz

Little surprised to see that, could it be for because of the 65,000 shirt give away? Odd.

Ticket sales are up this year. I would guess that after the beatdown we put on the Patriots in the 2nd half of week one, a lot of people bought tickets that week.

Jamaal Charles is practicing again today. Seems fine. No Berry, no De’Anthony Thomas out there.

Maybe- I am interested in seeing what type of crowd/home crowd we have for this game.
 
Huge game for both teams. These are two teams that had legitimate wild card aspirations going into the season and at this point the loser probably doesn't deserve to be in the post season. I am nervous about it, the Chiefs are looking to avoid an 0-6 start and this is the easiest game of the six on the schedule for them, they will pull out all of the stops for this one.

On the flip side we need a bounce back. Tannehill needs to have more than one or two great games a season and he's already getting behind the 8-ball on that. It sounds like we've got a big crowd coming to the game, give them a reason to keep coming aside from getting a "free" t-shirt. If the offense is still looking like **** change it up, go with some tempo or something.

I will say the t-shirt promotion is a good move though, I even contemplated coming down for the game, which would probably cost me 2-3 thousand dollars at least. The "free" t-shirt almost sucked me in. Plus, one thing about the 4PM start is I imagine the fans will be drunker and more raucous. They better not be telling people to sit down and be quiet this week...

Why does it feel like some of our players just haven't healed at all this year? Tripp and Turner off the top of my head.
 
Clay has not been himself, and I would consider sitting him until after the bye.
 
I'm expecting an altogether dominating performance from the Dolphins and easily Tannehill's best game of the year. I'd be shocked and deeply worried if that's not the case.
 
This thread is hilarious. I love my BBQ, brisket, and steaks, but I'd pass on all that for the cheerleader. Oh and KC BBQ is off the chain.
As far as the game we better hope we can run the ball with the committee we have at RB. I like what I saw out of Williams last week and hope to see more good things from him this week. We know Thomas ain't the answer at RB.
 
Dropping in for my quasi-yearly Chiefs discussion.

Chiefs suck. The offensive line is a disaster. The LT is really bad. Gave up 5 QB hits last game. If you have any pass rush at all you are going to beat the crap out of Alex Smith.

Our WRs are arena league outside of Dwayne Bowe. Making matters worse is Smith, who has no downfield component to his game and holds the ball too long. We do have a very athletic tight end in Travis Kelce you need to watch for. Surprisingly, despite our poverty line the running game has been decent.

Defensively we suck. Front seven is OK, decent pass rush, but middle linebackers are garbage. Secondary is the real issue. Cupboard is basically bare everywhere, and Berry is out this game.

Also our rookie kicker sucks and we have no return man right now with DeAnthony Thomas hurt.

If you can protect Tannehill you should win this one easy. The Chiefs will be lucky to score 17-20 points at the most.
