Dirk Koetter to interview for Chiefs HC job (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=268265)

He's done a great job with Atlanta's offense this year, I'll give him that. They have become a pass oriented team. Of course Julio Jones and Roddy White are beasts, so there's that.

Koetter has an impressive resume and John Elway was so impressed he almost hired him over John Fox.

As long as he just interviews, then fine. Next!

Koetter was the head coach at Highland High School for two seasons (1983–1984) before becoming a full-time college assistant coach. His college coaching career began in 1985 as the offensive coordinator at San Francisco State University. He then coached at UTEP (1986–1988), Missouri (1989–1993), Boston College (1994–1995), and Oregon (1996–1997).
Koetter was the head coach for three seasons at Boise State from 1998–2000, before moving to Arizona State in 2001. His record with the Broncos was 26–10 (.722), with two Big West Conference titles and two bowl victories. At Arizona State, Koetter compiled a 40–34 record, and four winning seasons in six years. Under Koetter, the Sun Devils became known for a vertical passing attack. He held a 1–11 record against top 10 teams, and was 2–19 against ranked teams. On November 26, 2006, The Arizona Republic reported that Koetter was being terminated as ASU football coach.[1] His final game was the 2006 Hawaii Bowl on Christmas Eve, a 41–24 loss.
In 2007, Koetter accepted the position of offensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars of the NFL. In his first season with the Jaguars, the offense improved from tenth in the league (338.9 yards per game) to seventh (357.4 yards per game). Koetter has been instrumental in the development of Jaguars offensive players Maurice Jones-Drew, Mike Sims-Walker, and Marcedes Lewis. Koetter was named, in addition to his duties as offensive coordinator, as the team's quarterbacks coach on November 30, 2011, with the firing of wide receivers coach Johnny Cox and the switch of quarterbacks coach Mike Sheppard to wide receivers coach.
On January 15, 2012, Koetter was hired as the offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons.

Pioli connection: worked with Pioli's buddy, Dimitrioff, in Atlanta. Bad sign...

He can't make up his mind about Scott Pioli. Yeah, I think he can be this stupid.

We should be celebrating today for Scott Pioli getting fired, but no we can't have to wait another day. Maybe?

Oh JFC.

**** EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH THE AIDSTRIOTS TREE!

He interviewed with Denver the year we hired John Fox.

@SaveOurChiefs

Falcons OC Dirk Koetter is an early interview candidate for the #Chiefs job. I know Dirk personally from his days as HC @ AZ State. (CONT)

‏@SaveOurChiefs

Great teacher, works well w/QB mechanics, play calling was good, has enjoyed success in the NFL. Not sure he is ready for NFL HC yet

He's white as Gandalf the White. And trust me did ATL's offense look any different than it did last year? A resounding no. He sucked major dick in Jax. It was run,run, pass (pass for less than 5 yards) EVERYTIME. In a season he'd pass on first down maybe 7 times and I'm not kidding. RUN ON FIRST was basically his motto, it was bullshit.

You're losing me, Clark.

Fire Pioli and I won't care. But you're doing that thing again where you're searching out for guys connected to guys to make yourself feel better about keeping your buddy on board.

I'm going to give you a chance to fire Pioli. Just ****ing do it. Hiring Dirk Koetter is not a substitution. It's an insult.

An exciting day is turning into a nightmare.

I'd chill out on this and not jump to conclusions. Dirk won't get the job. But all teams do due dilligence when hiring a HC and interview a lot of guys just like we interviewed Jack Del Rio last year.
