He seemed washed up...

Slower...

Uninterested...

The Chiefs have won 2 games with him in the lineup and he's not running 5 yard pass patterns, he's blowing past defensive backs.

His name?

Chris Chambers.

Hindsight is 20/20 but for some reason, Chambers is a rejuvenated person in K.C.

KC had first shot to sign him and they did but I wonder what Pioli saw? Chambers is working with a young quarterback. Maybe its Dwayne Bowe on the other side but I think Bowe is suspended.

What do you guys think of Chambers resurgence?

Agreed.

The guy was a fraud.  We are better off without him.

We got Henne for him.  What a steal.

1 Game? he's been active for 2 games and has been a factor in the passing game. Have you looked at his stats? Here they are...

Year     Team             G          Rec   Yds   Y/G    Avg    Lng    YAC    1stD   TD
2009   Kansas City   2       6   130   65.0   21.7    54    5.8    4            2

I'm not saying the Dolphins should have picked up his contract but it seems like a change of scenery has done Chambers good so far.

He looked really good today to me. I agree ethurst.

Mostly, but...we never should have dropped him.  He'd definitely be the best receiver on our team today like he was when he was cut.  I tried to pick him up for fantasy football yesterday, but I couldn't cut Ronnie for some reason.

We traded him for Chad Henne.  I'm OK with the trade. 

However, I do agree that he looks better now, but maybe its because he's on a talent-less team.  Medium-sized fish in a tiny pond.

^^^ San Diego's current squad has less talent than the 1-15 Miami team that dealt him away?

I'm almost sure you didn't really mean to say that...

He's not in San Diego.

He is now what he was then.  A solid receiver who's not a #1 on most teams (but sure as hell would be here).  I'm glad he's doing well in KC.  He should have a few good games coming up as Bowe is out suspended, I think.

He wasn't cut by Miami, he was traded.

^^^ Brainfart, my bad.

Still...the question might still be valid. KC sucks, but "so did the 1-15 Dolphins."

You're right.  I'm just saying I would have kept him, Henne or no.

No, what I was saying is that KC now has less talent than SD does now.  That's why he was unsuccessful in SD, relegated to the #4 WR on the depth chart, and is blowing up in KC.
