It will be interesting to see what happens in the next two weeks for the Chiefs head coach and the coordinators.
I would think because of the delay that it must be someone from the Arizona Cardinals or Pittsburgh Steelers staff. As everyone has been speculating, Arizona OC Todd Haley could very well be the head coach. If he is the man, I would expect some people from "HIS" past to be considered for the coordinators jobs. Maurice Carthon the current running back coach for Arizona has been an offensive coordinator for Detroit, Cleveland, and Dallas. Todd was the WR coach at Dallas when Maurice was the OC. Another Arizona coach Russ Grimm might also be considered for the OC position. Also Chan Gailey might be kept on as offensive coordinator. If Todd feels more comfortable calling the plays, that might happen too.
As-far-as the question about defensive coordinator; I think that depends on them staying with the 4-3 or 3-4. If the organization decides to go 3-4, then former Cleveland Browns head coach Romeo Crennel might be looked at. He was DC with New England for 3 Super Bowls. Bill Davis the current LB coach for Arizona was the defensive coordinator for the 49ers prior to being with the Cardinals. Teryl Austin the DB coach has done a nice job with Arizona's defensive backs and he might be considered. Another name from Haley's past is Gary Gibbs. He was at Dallas when Haley was there and most recently was the defensive coordinator with the Saints before being fired.
