I'm back from my trip for a friends wedding in Martha's Vineyard to post a few reasons why I think Priest Holmes might be a factor this year (BUT maybe not until playoff time)...
1) Larry Johnson ran for 119 yards on 31 carries this past Sunday. But wait you say, Larry IS BACK! He went over 100 yards in a game! Surely he's gotten this thing figured out. Ah - not so much. Larry ran for 106 yards on 16 carries in the first half. He then ran for 13 yards on 15 carries in the second half. Numerous mistakes, indecision and other things clouded Larry's performance this weekend. Do we need anymore reasons to give Mr. Diapers a slice of humble pie?
2) According to numerous reports, the Chiefs have traded Larry's backup Michael Bennett to Tampa Bay.
3) Herm Edwards has a lot of good things to say about Priest, and according to SI, he's been in almost daily contact with his Priest.
4) Coach Edwards said "You've got to find a way to get him in the game."
5) Because I told you about it last week.
We won't know for sure if Priest will play this week against Oakland until after he practices on Wednesday and Thursday.
Put a waiver request in...if you have someone expendable on your fantasy bench.
