Well you will be in for a real treat watching the Kansas City Chiefs $63,000,000 quarterback. His reads, accuracy, pocket presence, and decision making are a sight to behold.

Chiefs and Browns the best at something.....dropped passes.

If you’re going to the Chiefs final home game on Sunday when they play the Browns, it could be a long game with a lot of clock stoppages on incomplete passes. When it comes to trying to hold onto the pigskin, the Chiefs and Browns are the best when it comes to butter fingers.
The Chiefs lead the NFL with 39 dropped passes and Cleveland is right behind them in second with 36.

Chiefs vs Browns will be blacked out in KC.

They should do the world a favor and not televise that game.

Mind you the Lions and Browns game ended up being one of the more entertaining games all year so who knows, maybe this one will deliver something. I wouldn't bank on it though.

From the picks in todays Herald:

"Takes something special to see the Chiefs roll in as a favorite, and the Browns are something special. Take the Chiefs.

They are evenly matched so it might be a decent game. I'm paying to watch it.

Some whining by the media about the Browns ignoring the Rooney Rule in offering job to Holmgren.

Josh Cribbs with 2 kickoff returns for touch downs in the first half for the Browns. If not for him KC would have a pretty nice lead. If KC doesn't start kicking out of bounds, he'll get two more in the second half!

He is pretty ridiculous.

That ended up being a pretty good game. Especially if your a Browns fan. Josh Cribbs sets an NFL record for most KO returns in NFL history. I was actually rooting for him since he is on my fantasy team.

Jerome Harrison put up 286 rushing yards (I bet nobody had him on their fantasy team) which beat the Cleveland Browns rushing record of 237 yards set by Jim Brown in 1961. Although there should be an asterisk beside it because it was against the Kansas City Chiefs. Outstanding performance none the less and the 286 yards puts him 3rd all time for rushing yards in one game.

Edit: The Browns botched snap on the punt that lead to a Chiefs TD was one of the most exciting plays I have seen in Arrowhead in a long time. All in all it was a good game to watch outside of the Chiefs run defense (I don't know if defense is the correct term).

I would suspect it is nothing less that Director of Football Operations (or some similar title)....meaning ALL things related to the football aspect.

He may or may not GM the team, but if he doesnt he will decide who does.

he has little left to prove in the NFL and this would be something he has never done.

I don't think he coaches, he has nothing left to prove. He should be able to hire a quality coach from his very extensive coaching tree, which is a branch of the Paul Brown coaching tree.
