    Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles has suffered a torn ACL, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Charles was running out of bounds when his foot hit the first-down marker on the turf, causing him slip and land awkwardly during the first quarter of the Chiefs' 48-3 loss to the Detroit Lions. This latest injury news comes a week after the club lost Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry to a torn ACL. A Pro Bowler himself in 2010, Charles has 12 carries for 83 yards and five receptions for nine yards and a touchdown in five quarters of work this season. Without Charles for much of the Lions loss, Dexter McCluster had a team-high 51 yards rushing while Thomas Jones led the team with 12 carries.

    This has to be a deterring first two weeks for Chiefs fans. Their defense loses Berry for the season and have given up 89 points. Their offense just lost one of their top offensive play makers for the season and have only been able to put up 10 points.

    If Jamaal Charles had rushed for 300 yards the first two games the Chiefs would still have been whacked. The defensive genius of Romeo Crennell appears to be on an extended vacation.
