 Jamaal Charles-RB- ChiefsFeb. 9 - 4:42 pm et
Chiefs owner Clark Hunt indicated that the team no longer has doubts about Jamaal Charles' ability to handle a full load of carries.
Clark believes Charles, similar in size to Chris Johnson, "plays like a big player." He also praised Charles' "heart" and his ability to "carry a load that we didn't expect he'd be able to carry." The Chiefs would be wise to seek a bigger back as their No. 2, but that says more about their backups. Charles should garner first-round fantasy consideration as the team's featured back.

 Chiefs Offense-TM - Chiefs Jan. 6 - 6:27 pm et  

Ex-Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis has agreed to be the Chiefs' new offensive coordinator, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.
He'll reportedly be named Kansas City's new playcaller "within the next 24-48 hours." The fit is logical because Weis' offense is virtually the exact same as coach Todd Haley's, right down to the no-huddle heavy aspects. The approach won't change, but Weis' history of QB development and skillful use of adept pass-catching tailbacks bodes well for Matt Cassel and Jamaal Charles. At both the college and pro levels, Weis has also gotten outstanding production from far less talented receivers than Dwayne Bowe.

The Chiefs players voted Jamaal Charles their MVP.
Coach Todd Haley has no doubts about Charles anymore, and neither do his teammates. "Talentwise, I don’t think I’ve ever played with anybody as talented as (Charles) is, with the explosive ability he has," said four-time Pro Bowl guard Brian Waters. The team no longer looks at Charles as a change-of-pace back that can't carry a full load. He'll get some looks in the first round of 2010 fantasy drafts.

 Jamaal Charles-RB - Chiefs Jan. 4 - 4:00 pm et

With a shot at the single-game rushing record in the fourth quarter Sunday, Jamaal Charles asked to be taken out in favor of rookie Javarris Williams.
"I didn't want to do it like that," said Charles, of potentially shattering the mark in garbage time. "I'll get it some other time." He's starting to remind us of Chris Johnson in more ways than one. "We started by saying that this was a 15-carry per game guy," coach Todd Haley said. "He's forced us to think differently about him."

 Jamaal Charles-RB - Chiefs Jan. 4 - 9:52 am et

Jamaal Charles became the first player in NFL history to rush for 1,100 or more yards on less than 200 carries.
Charles rushed for 5.9 YPC behind the same line that limited Larry Johnson to 2.7 YPC. While the strong finish against a string of woeful defenses calls to mind busts such as William Green, Anthony Thomas, and Kevin Jones, Charles' homerun hitting ability is legit. Throw in above-average pass-catching skills, and he warrants first-round fantasy consideration in 2010.

 Jamaal Charles-RB - Chiefs Jan. 3 - 8:16 pm et

Jamaal Charles rushed 25 times for 259 yards and two touchdowns in Week 17 against the Broncos.
The goal was to get Charles the 139 yards needed to top 1,000 for the season, but Denver's defense was far more accommodating than that. Larry Johnson averaged just 2.9 yards on 132 carries before the Chiefs cut him loose, yet running behind the same offensive line Charles exploded for 959 yards on 161 carries over the final eight games, averaging 6.0 yards per tote. Toss in his receiving skills and he looks like a first-round pick in 2010.
