Fox is the head coach in name only. The real head coach is Peyton Manning.

I guarantee you Andy Reid will make you a better football team. Unfortunately, I'm not sure he is the guy that gets you over the hump. Consistent problems plague him. Terrible time management, terrible uses of timeouts, coaches tight in playoff games and it rubs off on the players. Watching the Detroit Tigers this year and Jim Leyland reminded me of Andy Reid. He just looked tense in the dugout.

Also, he will annoy you with the same stock responses to every question. But he is a good coach, and he will probably groom you a good QB somewhere along the line.

I want to see Andy Reid in a big football town like KC, and not some terrible football town like Jacksonville.

You go to a 4-3, you need to find 2 outside backers. Finding 3-4 run stuffing DE's is easier than finding 2 linebackers.

That's all good, but the Dorsey angle deserves a second look. Tamba was a good LDE and Putting Dorsey and Poe at the DT spots could prove to be a good line if Houston could man the RDE spot and I think he could. His first step is sick and he hasn't really been able to rush as much as he should in his 2 years in KC. Putting him at RDE could be setting him loose.

Berry played pretty good down the stretch and hopefully that's a sign the knee and his transition from college are coming along nicely...Flowers is a stud. The secondary can probably get repaired by drafting a good corner and signing a vet safety.

I agree we would need a couple linebackers, but those aren't as hard to find as hey used to be. Could probably sign one and draft another in the third round (we should get another 3rd Asa comp for Carr,too)

I agree though, the best way to turn things around would be to run an aggressive 3-4 with these guys because when we ave, we have flashed a dominant defense.

then Romeo

then demoted Romeo to Gary Gibbs

3 DCs in 4 years

just like the 4 OCs in 4 years.

It's awful GMing/hiring/demoting anyway you look at it. Bunch of Pats tree nonsense and there is no valid argument that any of it is good for business

pioli didn't hire Clancy. Haley did.

Not just that, but Clancy WASN'T HIRED TO BE THE DC...HE WAS HIRED TO BE A POSITION COACH. They even said when they hired him that they were still looking for a DC. Remember that they didn't name what position each coach would even coach at first? I do. It was because they got started so late after hiring Haley prior to the Super Bowl.

It later came out that Romeo was gonna take the year off and only then did they name Clancy as the DC. He was fired after one year when Romeo was done getting paid by the browns and wanted the job.

Seems you forgot. Pioli didn't hire Gibbs as a DC, either.

Will Farell as our coach could make us a better team. We are at rock bottom.

lol at you thinking Haley hired anybody or had a say in the roster

funny joke that is. it all runs through Pioli, no matter how you try to spin it.

All hired, fired, promoted, demoted by Pioli.

Smith as his McNabb and Charles as his better version of Westbrook. Could be interesting.

Clancy was the DC in Arizona...no connection to the tree that I'm aware of.

Me too, a never was if you ask me. I would have loved Fisher, but almost everybody here blindly hates him.

if my choice is mcdaniels or any swinging dick on the CP
I chose CP coach of the week
FAX gets training camp
Rainman does preseason
mohillbilly is in charge of cutting player

after that we go by post count everybody gets to call one play
