It's very upsetting. I was looking forward to playing against Rodney and being out there with him again. I learned so much from the guy. I really appreciate everything he has done in helping my career.

Their offense is really in gear where they can score points. And it's hard to run the ball against the defense. They've got a great secondary with the young corners and an All-Pro in Champ (Bailey). I just think they have all the tools to make it.

I'm so used to catching some balls out of the backfield. Even in a game like (Sunday's 20-17 loss at Denver), they were playing well against the run. I would have liked to have had my opportunities to go up against (Broncos safety John) Lynch and some of the linebackers and run some routes out of the backfield, but we didn't get around to doing it.

I'm not blaming anyone. I understand, it's hard to call plays and try to make things work.

What better way to recover from injury than a game against the Chiefs. They don't tackle. They won't hit me. In fact, I think my ribs will feel better after the game.
