Damn right.

:rolleyes:

I thought you liked Chip?

His Big 12 record as a head coach is 64-32 and he's paid $3.75 million per year. He's never won anything significant and he runs the spread offense.

I don't see how he's even on a NFL team's radar.

Shanahan, at this point in time, would be an epic disaster.

I dont even know if you're a Kelly backer or not (at work, no time to read every post in threads), but would the players respect a first timer like him, straight from the college ranks with no NFL experience?

The respect factor would be a problem for him as well.

I don't think NFL players would have any problem playing for him. The guy has been successful at every stop. All you have to do is look at Oregon, which was far from a national power before he arrived.

The chiefs need to write down their top choices...then hire someone not on that list. This is also how they should draft from here on

Knowing the Chiefs they don't even know who Chip Kelly is.

Mark my words.

If Chip Kelly was the next HC of the Chiefs, he would build a perennial contender in KC. I have zero doubts about that.

He built the spread offense and recruited players that fit that image, capitalizing on the Nike brand and prestige to grab kids from California.

I have no doubt that with his organizational skills and intelligence, that he couldn't turn Jamaal Charles into the best weapon in the NFL, and that he'd do a great job of developing a QB.

Fewell is the best on that list. No O-minds! Defense! Cowher will do nice.

Nope. His success is due to the Giants having 4 guys who are excellent pass-rushers, not Fewell IMO.

I'm not advocating for Gundy, but to say he hasn't done anything of signifigance at OSU is over the top.

He's coached OSU to 4 out of 5 of their 10 win seasons.

He's broken the school's record for most points.

Had their highest ranking in school history on his watch...and on and on.

No at another minority(neg me please)

I wonder if Kelly is even on Clarks radar? I'd like to hire a coach first this time around.

Chip Kelly + a pushover GM who is a good talking head

I wouldn't be opposed to Chucky Gruden if he were available. "Ducks and covers face"
