I'm starting to get sold on Kelly.

I like what it says about Kelly running good practices. More then ever I'm convinced that winning consistently in the NFL is about preparation and execution, not Xs and Os.
My concern with Kelly would be surrounding staff. He has no NFL connections, and I'm not even sure of his NCAA connections. I want a HC that builds his own staff so he's not forced into working with a stranger that the GM picked. Do we really want a defensive staff made up of former New Hampshire coaches? |
Say no to Perry Fewell.
|
On that list, my favorite candidate is Ray Horton. Damn good defensive coordinator and would bring some much needed toughness to the team.
|
What does everyone think about Kevin Greene from Green Bay?

Of that list I would favor Horton. I would have to know about their leadership qualities, which is the most important thing for an HC. The scheme is usually left to the coordinators, but if he can pass the scheme along to someone that will coordinate it, it might be a plus. IMO we need our D to be more agressive.

I apologize if it's already been mentioned. I read the 1st page & didn't see it.
Chip Kelly said last year the reason he turned down Tampon Bay is he had unfinished work to do at Oregon. He said he's not going anywhere until he wins a National Title. That's kind of a big thing up here. It's a double edged sword for the locals. They'll lose their coach but have a title. |

Kyle Shanahan + a QB in round #1
I don't understand why Chip Kelly is such a hot NFL prospect. This reeks of Steve Spurrier 10 years ago. Kelly doesn't run an NFL-style offense and doesn't have any experience or connection to the NFL. |
Quote:
Thanks for confirming my theory that Shanahan isn't HC material. |
Also, what kind of NFL coaching connections does Jim Harbaugh have? He spent 2 years with the Raiders as an assistant. That's it.
Chip Kelly is smart enough that he can find coaches. For instance, I have no doubt he would keep a lot of the talented guys currently on this staff like Emmitt Thomas |
I'm sure Harbaugh used his connections as a player to raid the former coaching staffs of Bobby Ross, Kevin Gilbride, and Mike Riley, right?
|
Quote:
Great plan. |
I don't want a coach named Chip or Perry. We've had a Romeo, that's feminine enough for me.

Quote:
IF the Chiefs clean house, no familiar names will exist. And they shouldn't. |
Agree. They have to fire everybody involved in this mess.
|
Quote:
By comparison, Kelly's entire staff is made up of career college coaches. In fact, they are mostly Oregon holdovers and retreads. He didn't even build the staff. Harbaugh and Kelly couldn't be less comparable. |
No trying to pick anyone in particular but there is a part of me that likes the idea of a special teams coordinator as a HC. They are use to working for both the offense and the defense. They are not completely tied to either side of the ball. Special Teams are important in making a shorter field for the offense and also pinning the opponent deep for the defense. A good special teams unit makes it easier for both the other squads.
|
I'd vote for Chip Kelly.
I want no more Bellicheck disciples and no coaches son. Kyle Shanahan was enamored with Rex Grossman at QB last year and ran a very conservative offense. He'd probably like Cassell as his QB ... but for the fact that he has seen a real franchise QB this year in RG III. |

He's Lane Kiffin part two at this point. |
Quote:
Harbaugh ran an NFL style offense at Stanford... Chip Kelly runs a college-spread offense that would not work in the NFL. How many QB's has Chip Kelly coached up to the NFL? I count zero. |
Funny how most of the people humping Chip Kelly also wanted Romeo over Jeff Fisher last January.
|
Offensive coaches give me pause because they're often too apt to try to dabble.
|
Quote:
Also, please in detail, describe to me why and what aspects of Chips offense wouldn't work? Curious to hear this. |
Quote:
People want Chip Kelly because (if he worked) he'd be the type of coach that transforms the game a little bit. He's not an old retread that will try to recreate the 80's or 90's. Chip Kelly could bring the type of system into the NFL that other teams would copy, he's not the guy that see's what worked somewhere else and brings it to KC. |
Quote:
|
Depends. Cam/Tebow are the only Qbs now I can see that physically could hold up. However, their other skills are abysmal, IMO.
I tend to think that Chip is smart enough guy that he would eliminate his zone read, and focus on utilizing his zone blocking scheme with a 1-back set. But who knows. Maybe he's a crazy **** who would literally get Cassel IRd just for the hell of it. |
Quote:
The NFL is a passing league and Chip Kelly's offense is not a passing offense. Oregon is 84th in passing offense this year, 68th last year, and the highest they've finished in passing offense/game since Kelly has been head coach is 39th in the country. The Chiefs need someone who will bring the high powered passing offense you need to win in today's NFL and that is not Chip Kelly. |
Quote:
I think he'll flop worse than Josh McDaniels. When the **** has Kyle ever had a chance to demonstrate independent thinking without Ratface or his buddy Gary Kubiak looking over his shoulder checking his homework? |
There were people who actually didn't want Rat Sr. Yeah, that was a mistake.
|
Andy Reid, Jay Gruden, Jon Gruden, Chudzinski, Nolan, Cowher are a few I like to at least be considered for the job.
|
Quote:
Reid's too predictable. Sorry, but I'd have to say no to that whole list. |
Quote:
How are you to sell the public an OC whose team is 1-6? Nolan sucked as a head coach and Jon Gruden can eat a bag of stale dicks. |
could we work out a way to bring Dick Vermeil back in for a look?
|
you all would cry too - ever tried coaching Dante Hall?
|
I don't really give a **** who the HEAD coach is as long as we have a coach who will hire great O and D coordinators and DEFER to them. I want a head coach that will delegate responsibility and focus on the main job of getting everyone on the same ****ing page.

Looks like a pile of shit to me. Bad year to draft a qb and a bad year to hire a rookie HC.
A day late and a buck short. The story of the Chiefs. |
Surprised there aren't more people wanting Ray Horton. He's done a tremendous job with Arizona's D.
Todd Bowles, too. |

man, I just hope that we don't blow up the 3-4 and go back to a 4-3. It'll take 3 years to revamp personnel again. Just move to a one gap, attacking style.
|
Just hire Cowher already and be done with it.
