We have lots of it too...:D

Hamas do you really think this team can win 12 games with Cassel?

The greatest loser...

I'd put the Chiefs chances of picking up Clausen at about 1% before the Weis hire.

I don't know where I'd put it now. 15%? 20%? I'm more optimistic on that front than most.

It's about 1% chance he falls to us, though. So it's moot.

This team couldn't win 12 games with Peyton Manning.

They gots lots to do.

Just wait Berry will on board as well and we take the fat turd from Bama.

This aint good for Mecca's USC.

I'm not going to say he's going to make the chiefs the 2003 offense, but this move makes alot of sense.

I think this is a good start for the offseason. CW can get his ass in here, start working with scouts, attend the allstar games and have a jump on the time to help get "his guys" for the draft.

Similar systems, previous history.....and he's got legit NFL OC experience.

If that happens, I will turn off the tv and go mow the lawn.

I'd probably break my TV. With my forehead.

What?

Now the Chiefs don't have to draft McCalin. They can dick around for a few years and draft the Hawaiian guy Weis recruited this year whos a beast :)

pretty much how i feel about it.

I will bet Chicago goes after Jeremy Bates.

cant wait to see Brady Quinn in Chiefs Red!

If I were you i'd stay away from the lawn mower and all other things sharp and with blades.

Why would we necessarily jump on Clausen. Didn't Weis work with later draft picks for QBs in all of his tenures. Didn't he also work with Cassel in New England? Just curious.....

Bates was kind of bland as an OC this year to be honest with you.

Didn't he have to be with a freshmen QB?

I fully expect the team to do something epically reeruned, that is the Chiefs way.

Weis is fine, but this doesn't help us fix the sod at Arrowhead.

I think this hire helps immensely when April rolls around.

I am sure your mom will appreciate you doing something around the house.

Weis is fine, but it doesn't keep people from standing up at games.

Weis can do commercials for Gunts.

No, it says "Sources" which when coming from ESPN mean about as much to me as Nick Athan's "Spies".

It's probably a done deal, but it would be nice to see it somewhere else

So we should have hired George Toma as offensive coordinator??

What do you guys think about Bowe working with Weis? I just don't see them working together.

This is a good hire for the Chiefs. Weis is a solid offensive coordinator, can't blame them too much on this one. I wonder if they will bring in Brady Quinn? If they can get him from Cleveland for say a 5th round pick - it might be worth it.

Pandergast out or we are going nowhere.

If you put him in a Baltimore 2000 type situation, maybe.

Matt Cassel is just a guy. That's all he is. The hubris that it takes to install him as the handpicked guy and give him that contract before he'd taken a snap is astronomical.

FWIW, I fully expect us to run the 2002 variation of the Patriots O. If you guys remember the '02 opener was the opening of Gillette Stadium. The Patriots came out in shotgun and just slung the ball around all game (and all year), never throwing more than 10 yards downfield.

That game the guys in the booth started the first wholesale blowing of Weis for his scheme in that game, which helped them beat Pittsburgh. That's where the myth of Weis was born.

Of course they went 9-7 that year and missed the playoffs, but....

I think the Weis hire is very good. However, I want to caution fans that the personnel in NE was vastly better than the Chiefs have.

why not? Any WR should be able to work with any OC. It's not like we're talking about a QB here.

:rolleyes:

So you liked the hire.

For your (insert company name) the official buffet of the Chiefs...

We are NotreDame now.

He better give us royalties.

At 8 o'clock at night?

Isn't the guy you throw the ball to 5 yards down the field and let him make plays. Theres alot of value there to be traded.

None of the above are reporting this. Surely it would get some mention if it were done right?

That's the best time to do it!

It's funny that you mention that. I keep hearing about how weis has the same offensive philosophy has Haley, but Haley attacks downfield while Weiss dinks and dunks his way downfield.

I don't understand how there philosophies are the same, but ok. If Haley says they're the same and Haley's hiring him....ok, sure.

Haley pretty much gave it away during the presser this afternoon during his ball washing of weis

:cuss: I told the Planet this 3 days ago.

I'm surprised he could find his balls.

It's ok. It's not terrible, but it's not the home run people are claiming it to be, either.

I still think we're on the fast track to building a team with a ceiling of 10 wins and a first round playoff exit. Or as Chief fans call it, utopia.

So you're the source?

No. Bowe IS the guy you throw the ball to 5 yards downfield and let home make a play. That's exactly his game. He is a big body that usually breaks the first tackle. He doesn't have elite speed to spread the field, which is probably why he struggled a bit in Haley's system.

Gaily used Bowe in that short passing game, possibly the same way Weiss may use him.

Well done, dude.

Hiring Weis is fine, but it doesn't keep you from puking on your shoes.

Leftover food for kids charity ...

You going to training camp next year? We're gonna get drunk before practice and hurl fat jokes at Charlie.

I'm sorry, did you say something?

It's the Chiefs. Nobody reports anything they do unless they need a filler in their news.:(

i think the hiring of Weis could allow the Chiefs to select clausen and get away with it.


that said, i doubt clausen drops to 5th ... but if he does the Chiefs just say "When a talent drops to you sometimes you take a player you don't necessarily look at as a primary need. The fact that we have a coach that is very familiar with the talent makes the selection even easier"

:shrug:

don't worry BRC ... we believe you, we love you, we need to caress ...


eh, i've said too much. :redface:

I go to St. Joseph two times per year.

Once, to celebrate birthdays on my wife's dad's side of the family w/ her grandparents, and once to do her dad's side of the family Christmas.

You couldn't draw me into that shit hole with a ****ing tractor beam otherwise.

Rep man....rep.

Yes, it's the Chiefs, but it also indirectly involves Notre Dame and the Patriots so if it were "official" everyone would be reporting it.

If Berry's off the board, I think you have to go Spiller or Clausen, assuming either are still there.

Clausen could certainly fall to #5, particularly now that he's going to need surgery and won't be able to throw for teams until April(best case scenario).

To be honest, the Rams would probably be best served in the short term (and maybe even the long term) by signing Jason Campbell in FA and drafting Suh. Campbell gets a lot of shit, but he's actually not a bad player.

Well, I for one am okay with this hire. On a side note, does anyone think this hire might improve the chances of the Chiefs drafting Golden Tate somewhere to use as a percy harvin/ or perhaps welker type/ slot WR?

Golden Tate, please.

Wow. Earth-shattering (According to sources)

That's what I'm thinking.

What the **** leads you to this deduction? Please break it down for us all...

By hiring Weis we have fast tracked to a team that can win no more than 10 games? Huh? :)

Like the hire a lot...excited for the offseason to get going now. I think he'll be nothing but good for Cassel and help turn him around.

Also promising that the Chiefs didn't reall wait around and were proactive in bringing Weis into the fold...although I suspect this has been in the works for a while.

Time to shitcan Clancy and find a legit DC now.

now you're just being a pain

It's likely to be a New England reunion: Now that Charlie Weis has agreed to work in Kansas City, Romeo Crennel will not be far behind. less than 20 seconds ago from UberTwitter

Damn that bad huh?

I just can't imagine Clausen getting past Mike Shanahan.

He drafted Jay Cutler with a team that went to the AFC Championship.

New regimes mean new quarterbacks.

;)

I'm just saying espn is often wrong and no one else is reporting it... Except for message board personality Big Red Chief whom I give more credit to than espn

This. Exactly.

I agree. I don't think Campbell's a bad QB.
