The Facts:
At the beginning of the week, HC Todd Haley threw out 200 yards rushing as Charles’ goal for Sunday’s finale against the Broncos. “I thought he was crazy, man. Two hundred? In the NFL?” Charles said after setting a team record by rushing for 259 yards, the final 56 coming on his second touchdown in Kansas City’s 44-24 rout at Denver that knocked the Broncos out of the playoffs.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The effort was enough to finish the season with 1,120 yards rushing, becoming only the ninth player in the history of the storied Kansas City franchise to surpass the 1,000-yard mark despite making only 10 starts since taking over the job following the release of Larry Johnson. Against the Broncos, Charles averaged 10.4 yards on 25 carries and broke off runs of 52, 33 and 30 yards in addition to the 56-yard TD jaunt. And now Charles heads into this offseason high on the Fantasy radar.
