[Kansas City.com] The Chiefs claimed quarterback Matt Gutierrez off waivers from New England. They waived their fourth quarterback, Ingle Martin.
Gutierrez played in five games as a backup over two seasons with the Patriots. He was waived this week so the Patriots could clear roster space after signing former Raiders quarterback Andrew Walter.
I follow the Maize and Blue religously. Matt Gutierrez is a very good quarterback. Played high school ball at De La Salle in California and not lose a game. Recruited by many prestigous programs Matt decided on Lloyd Carr and Michigan. Slated to start the 2004 season, Gutierrez became injured and a guy named Chad Henne became the starter for 4 years. So, another highly touted guy that didn’t get a chance to play for a big college program (he did play out west for a smaller school for a year) this Matt sounds like another Matt we know. So tip your hat to Pioli. This guy can’t be father of the year with the amount of time he spends evaluating second tier talent.

this is going to be brodie’s replacement. even if he doesnt it should make the rest of the QB’s watch their backs. gutierrez will at least push the other guys not like I.Martin. i think this is what the QB depth chart will look like going into the season . . . .

Heard any rumors about Vick coming to KC? I know there are a lot of people that can’t forgive him for what he did, but I am one who thinks he’s paid his price and should be in the NFL. I wouldn’t mind him coming in. There’s a reason why he was once the highest paid player, he’s an exceptional athlete. I agree Croyle should be released.

I’m begging the chiefs to bring in Vick we need talent and he has it.we can use him in all kinds of different ways.he paid his debt to society give him a break.

Vick would bring nothing but problems. Forget the dogfighting. What about the gambling ring, the dope at the airport, the herpes, Ron Mexico, the thugs he surrounds himself with….He’s nothing but trouble.
