"Please, just make us respectable. I don't care if we're in the top 10 in defense or the top 15. I mean, that would be nice. But just make us respectable. Just give us a chance." - Carl Peterson, after re-hiring Gunther Cunningham
"Even the word 'respectable' makes me sick to my stomach," he says. "We're not coming to be 'respectable.' We're coming to take your heart." - Gunther Cunningham
"There are only two rules to my defense. Run downhill, and show up. That's what I tell our guys. Run at the offense and show up around the ball. Do those two things, we'll be a good defense. Don't do them, you won't be playing here." - Gunther Cunningham

I don't know how this man has a job. He is basically stealing money from this franchise right now. Not to mention all the free agents and draft picks he lobbied for, many publicly, and got. Kendrell Bell, for instance, is all Gun. If he were a man he would resign today as he is bringing new meaning to embarrassment to this franchise. If he wanted to get revenge on the Chiefs for firing him, he's done it. Carl Peterson, for all the mistakes he has made, has made two huge blunders in his Chiefs career which should finally cost him his job, and both involve hiring Cunningham. And Herm Edwards should be fired for keeping this guy as his DC...
