Meh, I am high then. I thought he was in Cleveland then.

Having said that Romeo made the best and though obvious decision, he made it by starting Orton and using Stanzi as the backup and not even activating Palko. That's a step in the right direction regardless.

Yep. This team still needs to draft a QB regardless of who the HC is.

Well the fact is none of these great coaches ever win dick without a great QB. So to blame Romeo when he was handed the crap he had for QB's in Cleveland is not really fair then, is it? What did BB ever win without Brady? What did Shanny ever win without Elway? The list goes on, of course.


Get us a QB and Romeo will be fine. We have the rest of the pieces in place already.

Now that really is an astute point. Don't hire Crennel because he doesn't have a superior QB. Wouldn't we not be able to hire *ANY* coach for the Chiefs since he doesn't have a superior QB or is it just the combination of old guy along with no QB. Do you even think before you spew? I'm shocked you don't get hit by a car on a daily basis.

The point was that I don't think Romeo is going to go find himself a superior QB.

Considering how old he is, he may not even have the patience for a rookie.

If Crennel is our HC and actually wins a SB here it will shock everyone in the NFL. It would be unprecedented.

Sorry for being concerned when 50 years of NFL history says this won't work out.

And FYI, Dick was younger than Romeo when he won it.

Theres a first time for everything.

This is no different than saying we can win a SB with Cassel.

If Goat Chiefs doesn't like it then it's probably a great hire.

The odds are so low, the idea that we would just hand Romeo the job is shockingly stupid.

And those ancient head coaches also had superior quarterbacks. Where's Romeo's?

Unfortunately just because Romeo took over as HC in week 15 they don't move the draft up.

I was against Herm from the beginning.

okcchief 12-19-2011 10:26 PM

If we play well the last 2 games then I say why not. I'm not excited about the other options either.

Romeo is an upgrade from Haley and Herm at least. JFC the bar is low around here.

I don't want them to hire Crennel either. They love him now but what happens when the relationship goes stale?

64 is not old. Do you know anyone that is over 60? You don't appear to.

Yeah because he hasn't been a part of this team the last 2 years or anything. WTF do these players know about him?

Oh Snap 12-19-2011 10:31 PM

crennel could coach for 5-10 years possibly. Yea hes old, and has some health issues. But you're speculating at best.

If he gives us the best chance to win, guess what? Ill take it! Especially if he builds this team into a winner! Sure I like Jeff Fisher, but we need to be realistic, crennel might be the best fit for us. (best available coaching option)
