Chiefs Could Run Out of Options Against Rams

Times NFL writer Robyn Norwood poses--and answers--the burning questions for this week’s games:

1. Question: Can the Kansas City Chiefs upset the undefeated St. Louis Rams?

Answer: Hmmm, the Rams on grass, loud stadium. . . . Too bad the Chiefs don’t have the running game to keep the ball away from Kurt Warner.

2.Question: Shouldn’t the Dallas Cowboys bench Troy Aikman in favor of Randall Cunningham after Aikman’s five-interception game?

Answer: Look, the Cowboys aren’t going anywhere anyway. The way the Arizona Cardinals give up points, Aikman might actually look good today.

3. Question: Will the Baltimore Ravens finally score a touchdown?

Answer: They can’t go a fourth week in a row. Can they?

4. Question: Remember the Jaguars?

Answer: Not really. Their 14-2 record of last season seems a long time ago after another loss to Tennessee on Monday night, and the Washington pass rush will have no trouble getting past that offensive line to Mark Brunell.

5. Question: How’s Mike Ditka looking now?

Answer: Not bad. Give new General Manager Randy Mueller credit for savvy free-agent signings, but Ditka’s eight-pick trade for Ricky Williams doesn’t look so disastrous in the second season.
