I'm telling you...if Reid is hired and given full control to build this thing however he sees fit...we can't knock Clark anymore

Schefter seemed to stick to his convictiions about Reid coming here and Haley interviewing in AZ. Nothing new really so I will go ahead and..

Andy Reid is significantly better than perpetually 8-8 and a playoff loss.

He's been to 4 championship games and a Super Bowl.

Those are the only rumors I've seen so far.

He fits the "never won a SB in first job, moving to second role" to a T.

There are only 11 head coaches in NFL HISTORY who have won more playoff games than Andy Reid.

Heckert drafted a franchise qb, rb, rt, and 2 nice wrs last draft.

Looking more inevitable as we go....

I'm clearly not saying that, so I'd appreciate leaving out the snarkiness. I'm saying that Reid is getting older and unhealthier. That's not a good combination for a guy who is put into a new atmosphere of one of the most stressful and demanding jobs in the country.

No. Rivera was LB coach in Philly and was then hired as DC in Chicago.

Spags?

I know he failed miserably as a HC, but he loved the aggressive, attacking, 4-3 fronts in NYG. He was a good LBs coach in Philly. He learned Jim Johnson's schemes and incorporated them well in NY. Then he went to STL and failed pretty badly. And as an interim HC, he still failed pretty badly. But when he went back to DC in NO, they recovered nicely and finished the year much better.

Yeah, he got ripped by a NOLA player recently, but players are idiots and someone's always bitching.

I think Spags would be a really nice fit as a DC here.

If you want the next Jim Johnson, Spags is as close as they come.

Yeah, i'll take Mort and Adams word over Geoff Tate and Merle Haggard.

Hehe, let me get home after work. I intended on doing this today.

Ick, not sure I'd be excited about either one of those guys. I think their defenses are about as outdated as Romeo's.

I'm not as excited about the 43 as you are, but TBH, we sucked ass in a 34 this year so whatever they wanna do, I'm fine with.

Browns drafts have been decent the last few years, but they've mismanaged the QB position a bit.

Rivers has played badly for sure, but that's mainly because of the horrible O-line and Norv's outdated offense setting him up to fail... just sayin'.

Wonderful news. I had a gut feeling he was the guy.

Yep.

1. Heckert
2. Trade for Weeden
3. ???
4. Profit!!

Me too.

Rivers is at the last legs of his career... it is pretty clear to see.

No, it's because he's a loser.

NFL Network said Reid told Chiefs he and Tom Heckert are a package deal.

I'm really really hoping Rivera gets axed in Carolina.

Glad I talked myself into likeing Andy Reid before we got him. Just draft Geno & or Barkley & or Wilson and I will be happy (mostly Geno)

Good. A HC and Gm on the same page.




Wonder what that looks like?

@RoobCSN
ESPN reporting Chiefs close to deal with Andy Reid, but I'm told by two sources Andy still talking with Cards and Chargers as well.

PBJ PBJ PBJ PBJ PBJ


( 5 star treatment ) Means Pioli is gone.

When your coach has a loser mentality, it shouldn't be a surprise when it eventually rubs off on the players.

I won't complain if the new GM/coach wants to get rid of Rivers, but I won't rule out a Warner-esque late-career resurgence either.

LOL

What if Clark says "no" to getting rid of Pioli and we lose Reid........

Why are we so excited about this guy? Without McNabb he never did a Damn thing. His offense sucks. His clock management makes herm Edwards look like Bill Walsh . I'm not that enthused

Well bye.

Mortensen "I'm expecting Andy Reid to be the next head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs. I'm not reporting that but I ... just me ... I'm expecting the deal to get done pretty soon."

"Reid wants full power and the chiefs are willing to do that ... the Cardinals have more .... 'clutter' ... "

trying my best to quote him exactly...

It would be a clarifying moment.

Me thinks ole Andy might be trying to get an extra few BBQ buying papers from Clark.

Staying loyal to Pioli, huh? Good on you.

Ooooh. Not bad.

I'm thinking these "sources" are circular (i.e. Rapoport). They are just retweeting each other.

Don't bothers posting tweets if they're more than an hr or so old. By then they've been posted at least 5 times.

Norv Turner is a meh guy. He doesn't get excited. He doesn't take losing seriously enough.

Phillip Rivers is a first class crybaby loser. He'll never win in the NFL, regardless of coach.

Darren Woodson on ESPN moments ago: 'Andy Reid is going to take Matt Cassel under his wing and make him a better football player'
:D

Danny Parkins interviewed Howard Eskin who spoke directly to Reid. Reid said no interview with AZ is planned.

ROFL

No, I meant "well bye, Scott".

Andy Reid and Tom Heckert were 38-25-1 in 4 years together. 3 playoff wins.

My hope is that he'll turn Geno into the next McNabb and use the talent that's already on the roster to finally get over the hump (so to speak) (cuz he's fat, you see).

JESUS

Thanks.

Sounds VERY good for KC right now, doesn't it?

:rockon:

Go sit on a knife, buddy.

Not bad.

So is he still in Philly with the Chiefs execs?

Clark could save KC millions in productivity dollars by just getting the deal done and caving to salary demands.

lmao, i saw that and was just going to post this myself. you beat me to it. ROFL

Nah. We're trading Cassel to whichever team ends up with Pioli.

I've never been high on Andy Reid for the same reasons. He's similar to Norv in a lot of ways, especially the clock management.

Don't get me wrong, he's a major upgrade from the Pioli/Crennell reign of terror, but I'm still relieved that the Chargers will be getting someone else.

I'd take it.

I also want to say: Childress as QB coach? Hell to the yes. If you can get Rivera as DC, holy shit.

And with that, Woodson just lost every bit of respect i had for him.

That's a 10-6 average. Can't really do better than that unless you are the patriots.

During his 14-year tenure, Reid has compiled the best win total (120), winning percentage (.609) and playoff victory total (10) in team history. He captured six division titles and five trips to the NFC Championship game. During this period, no other franchise earned more divisional playoff round appearances (7) and only Bill Belichick's New England Patriots exceeded Philadelphia's (5) conference championship game appearances with (6). Reid also sent 19 players to 44 Pro Bowl appearances, the highest total for any team in the NFL during that period. None of these players had ever appeared in a Pro Bowl before Reid was hired.

The Yep Slot just hit 3 dancing bananas and paid out 500,000 Yeps.

That is the same direct story link that is in the opening post.

Agreed.

Yeah Clark, go ahead and try to put that in the contract. Perfect way for Reid to tell us to go **** ourselves.

Donald Stephenson ‏@Don59Wayne

Andy Reid?

ROFL

Heckert was there before of course, but he wasn't GM.

The funny thing is that Reid is one of the few people that could make Matt Cassel a passable QB in this league.

But that ship has long sailed.

Was Shurmur (outside of being OC) more of a WR or OL coach? I know Childress is definitely a QB coach.

does anyone actuallly think there will be a worse GM than PIoli?

As I was saying.

New Gm's and New HC's mean new QB's.



Game.

ROFL

This... add in Childress as Asst HC, maybe Wisenhunt as OC. Ken could land somewhere as a HC yet.

HC ....... Reid
Asst HC ...Childress
DC .... Rivera
OC .... Not sold on any yet. ( Norv would be great, but I hear the Jets are calling him )

Sweet resume. Hardly any of that was done since 2009.

Michigan State
(tight ends coach)
Stanford
(offensive line coach)
Philadelphia Eagles
(tight ends coach)
Philadelphia Eagles
(Quarterbacks coach)
St. Louis Rams
(Offensive Coordinator)
Cleveland Browns
(Head Coach)

Who should be our new clock management coach?

Has Dafool been fired yet?
