Chiefs C Rudy Niswanger started in Week 9 despite his knee injury. Niswanger's knee is clearly not as bad as originally thought -- the team had feared it could end his season. It's small steps for the Chiefs offensive line, which has struggled as much as any unit in the league.Source: Kansas City Star

News: One game into the post-Larry Johnson era is all it took for the Kansas City Chiefs to get their first rushing touchdown, first 100-yard rushing day and second win of the year. This week's opponent, the Pittsburgh Steelers, may mount more of a challenge than the mistake-prone Oakland Raiders did in Sunday's 16-10 victory. But the Steelers would be wise to prepare for Jamaal Charles as KC's featured back. It would seem a richly deserved reward for his long TD run and 103 yards rushing in the first game since former Pro Bowler Johnson was released amid a cloud of controversy. With more speed than Johnson showed in even his best years, Charles broke loose on one key play and sped 44 yards into the end zone, erasing the stigma the Chiefs had been carrying as the only NFL team without a rushing touchdown. He also picked up 26 yards on a fourth-quarter drive as the Chiefs tried desperately to run time off the clock. It seemed especially gratifying for somebody who'd spent part of the season in the coach's doghouse for fumbling. The second-year pro had gotten so crosswise with coaches, he'd even been inactive for one game. A fumble in those last minutes on Sunday could have proven fatal. "It wasn't something I was thinking about," coach Todd Haley said Monday. "He'd had a bunch of carries under his belt and he was protecting the football. None of those footballs that ended up on the ground were Jamaal's fault."

Chris Chambers ascends to the Chiefs' No. 1 receiver following Dwayne Bowe's suspension. Teams usually know about PED suspensions ahead of time, so it's possible that Bowe's status was the impetus for grabbing Chambers off the waiver wire.

News: For about six weeks Derrick Johnson's been riding the Kansas City bench, jerked out of the lineup for reasons that have never been made public. A linebacker with Johnson's talent can't crack the starting lineup for a team that's 1-6? He wouldn't help a defense ranked 30th out of 32 teams? First-year head coach Todd Haley says he's satisfied that Johnson is working hard. Johnson says he's doing everything he can to get back. But in the meantime, Demorrio Williams keeps playing well and giving no indication he's ready to return the job to the man who not so long ago was once hailed as the best defensive player in college football. "It stinks," Johnson said. "It stinks to not be starting or not be playing, or not be playing like I should. Not being out there on the field like I usually am. But it's made my mind stronger."

Beat writer Tom Kowalski speculates that the Lions may be interested in Chiefs DL Glenn Dorsey. The Lions are woefully thin on the defensive line and defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham was with the Chiefs when they made Dorsey the No. 5 overall pick in the 2008 draft. Still, it's very unlikely that Dorsey gets moved considering his $22.5 million guaranteed contract and talent level.Source: MLive.com (click again to close) | RDE | |||||||||||
