It's official, Dick Curl is the new QB coach.
 

As if there was any doubt, Herm announced it yesterday.

:shrug:

Dick Curl? Isn't he the strength coach?

Man. What a name. Dick. Curl.

Nice.

Jesus.

We don't need no stinkin' QB coach to teach the QB to hand off.

We could of had Dick Limp ...

The only question I have is, to the left or to the right? :)

Wasnt Dick Curl the Clock Management Coach in NYJ?

What the **** is happening to this one proud organization?

Herm and the hiring of his band of ****ing morons is getting sickening..

Herm is the stupidest mother****er on the planet. :banghead:

UHH, when were we ever proud? If by proud you mean mediocre or crappy since the 60's then, sure...we were once very proud.

I was never too impressed with Shea so I'll wait and see how it pans out.

You don't think Trent did a good job for 5 years? You don't think Huard did a good job last year?

to much false hope?

Great.....so now we have a Dick Head for a head coach and a Dick Curl for QB Coach.

It is unhealthy to confuse the two.

so, can we look forward to no more shula posts?

Damn that hurt ! oh well it's the truth
:banghead:

Or Dick Shrivel....but I hear he prefers the domed stadiums. ;)

You really think we were mediocre in the 90's?

What did we achieve?

Well by that logic until this year the Colts were mediocre. See, I'm arguing that mediocre means you don't go to the playoffs, you don't win the division. Chiefs were very good, not great.

Fine, I will just join the herd............Next year!!!! MOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Wow so fan=cattle. Good to know.

So is Phobia being promoted to clock management coach? I don't know if Phobia is qualified for the spot, but that doesn't appear to make a difference.

I thought that job was reserved for Hootie?

........ oh wait




Wood you or Wood you NOT change your name to Richard?

:shake:

DICK CURL


Position Assistant to the Head Coach/Offense
Year Hired 2006
Hometown Chester, PA
College Richmond
Degrees BA ('62)

Professional Bio
4th Year NFL Coach • 1st with Chiefs
Entering his fourth season as an NFL coach, Dick Curl rejoins the Chiefs after serving as Kansas City’s pro personnel assistant from 2000-02. He returns as the club’s assistant to the head coach/offense after spending the past three seasons as a member of Herm Edwards’ staff with the N.Y. Jets.

Curl will work in close conjunction with Edwards, fulfilling a number of weekly and gameday responsibilities. He will also assist offensive coordinator Mike Solari in developing and implementing Kansas City’s game plans in the passing game. The veteran assistant coach brings a wealth of experience to the Chiefs in all aspects of the game from coaching to scouting. He spent nine seasons leading high-powered offensive attacks in NFL Europe, including three seasons as the head coach of the Frankfurt Galaxy (’98-99). During his tenure with Frankfurt, his squad made two World Bowl appearances and won the NFL Europe title following the ‘99 NFLEL season.

In his final season with the Jets in 2005, Curl served as the assistant to the head coach and also coached the club’s running backs. That Jets running back corps included four-time Pro Bowler Curtis Martin, who concluded the 2005 campaign as the fourth-leading rusher in NFL history. Curl was also instrumental in the rapid develpment of rookie sixth-round pick RB Cedric Houston, who started the final four games of the year due to injuries to Martin and RB Derrick Blaylock.

Curl served as the senior offensive assistant/special projects for the Jets in 2004. His numerous responsibilities included assisting Edwards with game management and special projects. In his initial season in New York, Curl tutored the tight ends as TE Anthony Becht caught a career-high 40 passes for 356 yards.

In his first stint with Kansas City, Curl served as the club’s pro personnel assistant where he evaluated players with pro experience and as the club’s advance scout during the season. He joined the Chiefs after spending three seasons as the head coach of the Frankfurt Galaxy of NFLEL. The Galaxy won the World Bowl in ‘99 and also made the game in ‘98 as Curl was named the league’s Coach of the Year after both of those campaigns. He remains the only coach in NFLEL history to win the honor in two consecutive seasons. He led the Galaxy to a 17-13 record during his tenure.

Before being named the head coach in Frankfurt, Curl served as offensive coordinator of the Barcelona Dragons from ‘91-97. The Dragons made a World Bowl appearance in ‘91 before winning the league title in ‘97. Known as the “Mad Bomber” in NFLEL circles for his tendency to throw the ball, Curl led an offensive attack headed by QB Jon Kitna that averaged 360.2 yards per game in ‘97.

The Chester, Pennsylvania native amassed 30 years of coaching experience prior to his tenure in NFL Europe, enjoying a 19-year college stay. The masterful college recruiter had coaching stints at Boston College, Rutgers, Virginia and Trenton State, where he served as head coach in ‘74. He served as the offensive coordinator at Trenton State, Virginia and Rutgers where he was instrumental in recruiting Chiefs Hall of Fame enshrinee S Deron Cherry to Rutgers during his time with the Scarlet Knights.

A former quarterback at Richmond, Curl joined the collegiate ranks in ‘73 after spending 11 years at the high school level, including nine years as a head coach. He began his coaching career at Lee Davis High School in Mechanicsville, Virginia in ‘62.
Personal Bio
Education: University of Richmond (B.A. ‘62). Born: Chester, Pennsylvania. Family: Wife - Beverly; Children - Debbie, Karen and Susan. The Curl’s also have 11 grandchildren.

I felt a lot better about the Herm situation when the regular season ended...

"He will also assist offensive coordinator Mike Solari in developing and implementing Kansas City’s game plans in the passing game."

Is it too much to ask for an OC that actually grasps both the run and pass aspects of the offense?

What is with the Chiefs hiring old guys to coach? Can't we find anyone under the age of 126 to coach our team?

I don't know, Solari did the run design for Saunders, and that O looked pretty good.

Call me silly though, I don't think our passing game was designed all that well last year, and I don't see much in the way of experience at teaching QB technique that this guy has. Kind of like Marty and his exLB acting like a QB coach, it was no wonder that we had no QB get any better under Marty's tenor.

He looks younger than 66 or 67.

I believe it was the same with Saunders. Solari was in charge of the running game and Shea was in charge of the passing game.

Who is this old fart, really? He looks like a WalMart greeter.

This is all just a big joke, right?

FAX

No love for the “Mad Bomber”?

Solari fully grasps the passing game.

This quote, translated, says:

"He will also assist Herm Edwards in making sure Mike Solari doesn't get creative in the passing game."

More ammunition Fax, more ammunition.

You only think he looks young because you're 50. This guy looks like he was born during the Ming Dynasty.

That guy in your avatar sucks just as badly as Curl.

Some of us would be inclined to say he is worse.

He has an impressive resume, I'll give him that.

But, unfortunately, I don't see how being a co-signer on the Declaration of Independence is sufficient qualification for this job.

FAX

Start printing season opener tickets!

Why do we keep thinking people who do well in NFLE are NFL quality? There are a few that have done ok in the NFL but for the most part they quickly learn the game is another level higher over here. Don't know that a coach from NFLE will fare any better. :banghead:

we suck

Hey, Brodie! Great news! Here's your senile, old, geriatric coach!

"What was I talking about? Oh, yeah. Back when I was coaching high school, we liked to throw the spinner. You ever throw the spinner, son?"

FAX

Gah! We have gone from a spinner defense to a spinner offense?

I think that might have been a big part of why our passing offense didn't look as good last year (along with the aging of our offense). Quite frankly, Shea was a crappy OC when he went to Da Bears (didn't even last a year) and didn't really distinguish himself last year in that aspect...

You just like saying his name.

DEPENDS ARE DIAPERS FOR BIG ADULTS

I USED TO WEAR DIAPERS WHEN I WAS A BABY

I WEAR SOCKS DO YOU WEAR SOCKS

I HEARD BLACK MEN WEAR SOCKS

BACK IN MY DAY YOU COULD CALL PEOPLE JAPS

Herm or Dick Curl?

Well at least he has a job title now, wtf did Curl used to do besides translate info to Herm on how to lose football games due to piss poor clock management?

Maybe we'll start running the option a bunch.

"Now ya see here, Brodie. Ya gotta hit yer pitch man when that End comes at ya. Ya just flick it out there, and hit 'em. That's how we did it back in mah day."

This has to be your best post ever.

I think the Chiefs were better than very good in the '90's. We had the second best record overall for the decade. Yes, we didn't win a Super Bowl, but that doesn't take away from the fact that our team was superior to all but a handful of teams overall during that decade.

And, DMAC, the herd mentality is to bitch and moan about Peterson and Herm and ticket prices, not to attempt to look objectively at the team.

Your assimilation by Carl Peterson is complete.

At least Gunther has previously accomplished something in the NFL. Go ahead and discount it for whatever reasons you can dream up. Gunther designed and led some of the best defenses of the 90s. What the heck has Dick Curl done in the NFL?

Heh.

I'll bet that if the Chiefs sucks hard in the 2007 season, that Herm will shitcan Solari and probably promote his boytoy Dick Curl to the offensive coordinator position in 2008.

I was kind of disappointed that this position wasn't filled by Parcells or Pete Carroll. Maybe we could sign Dungy now that he's won a Super Bowl.

We're doomed!!!

That's not what he said. He said, "I thought about the new QB coach while I was doing dick curls."

AAAAAAAARHHHH

**** you Carl ****ing Peterson!
**** you Herman ****ing Edwards!

You dumbass muther****ers can suck donky schlong until you ****ing choke, you worthless one who sucks the peniss.

Gunther ****ing Cunningham sucks ass.
The only thing he accomplished was not ****ing up Marty's defense.

ROFL.

Good responses in this thread. I am not excited about this hiring. What did he do to qualify him as a QB coach? Good Grief.

Dick Curl sounds like some exotic weight lifting excercise a porn star might do

Christ, now I have a full blown migraine

This is wild.

I'm like the only person posting in the entire world.

FAX

when you don't intend on having a passing game, any QB coach will do.

Finally figured out who Dick Curl reminds me of:

Wow. This may be your worst post on this board.

Dick Curl? Sounds like the kind of guy who walks around with a pocket full of Snickers.

I've bottomed out.
