Chiefs still after marinelli?
 
Quote:
Edwards hinted Wednesday that he may be interested in Marinelli, a Tampa Bay assistant who is interviewing for the Detroit Lions’ head-coaching job. But it won’t affect the status of Cunningham, who was hired by Dick Vermeil in 2004 to turn around a defense that ranked near the bottom of the league.
so let me try and get a feel of the situation...


marinelli is still interviewing for head coaching positions so we can't really try and hire him yet and Gun was about to hit the market for other job chances.

So rather than losing both .... Edwards got the ok to hire both


Gunther as DC ... Marinelli as asst. HC/Defensive Coord


so on defense we'll have

Edward - a defensive HC
Marinelli - a defensive asst HC
Gunther - DC/foot shuffling porter



i can live with that ... as long as we get marinelli to keep a leash on Gun.

Why would Marinelli come here in a position other than D-coordinator? He's in demand.

ehh?! :spock:


... maybe because assistant head coach is a higher position than Defensive coordinator.

Uh.....not sure I get it.

I don't know about that. AHC sounds like a made up title to me.

And HC (even in Detroit) is a higher position than Assistant HC...

That would be a pretty good bunch of defensive minds working together. That'd be great if it worked out that way. Just for shits and giggles if it came down to getting Saunder back as OC or bringing in Marinelli as a Co-DC who would you want? I ask this because if one gets an HC job it might keep the other from getting an HC job. It might not but it could. I'd take Saunders back if I had to choose.

Exactly. The coordinator's position is where the power is, and doing a good job at it is what gets you a head coaching gig. I think Marinelli was already assistant head coach in Tampa. He's hardly at a higher position than Kiffin.

yes ... actually i don't have to think it, it just IS


when a team wants to hire away a OC or DC from another team they add the title of Assistant Head coach to his title and give the coach a pay upgrade to make it a promotion.

Asst head coach is obviously higher than a coordinator's position. better pay, more power. An asst head coach can over ride a coordinator. How is asst HC not more powerful than a OC or DC????

made up by NFL teams so they could steal away coaches from other teams without making them a head coach.

Al saunders was for the chiefs

So Kiffin answers to Marinelli in Tampa? Is that what you think?

It's just a title. It was invented to keep other teams from stealing coordinators.

Maybe they'll hire him to be in charge of Clock Management. We've heard the horror stories about Herm's attempt and we know there is no one on the existing Chiefs coaching staff that can do it.
