I'm sure at some point someone will offer DeCosta a boatload of money, and it may be enough to pull him away from BMore, but what happens when he goes somewhere where he doesn't have the same scouts, the same owner, the same office, when an entire organization is looking at him for leadership, where he doesn't have Ray Lewis and Joe Flacco on the field? How will he react? How will he lead? If I am Clark Hunt, that's my question to the guy if I'm interviewing him (of course if I am Clark Hunt, I am showing more leadership myself)... |

Granted that they don't have names like coaches do, but I have doubts that we could get DeCosta. Even Ross in NY. If the executive of the decade gets run out of town, it will make them think twice, unless Clark can convince them of something else.

Cleveland ran their GM out of town after 8 games in 2009 and hired Tom Heckert & Mike Holgrem who were pretty hot commodities. There won't be any backlash from Clark firing Pioli after 4 years and 3 last place finishes.

Oh please know I'm not suggesting we keep Pioli. That's the worst idea.
I do wonder how that will affect future hirings. But I also know that we can't continue on our current path. |

That is how the Chiefs roll. The perfect formula of mediocrity in perpetuity.

You're a ****ing moron.
Instead of hyperbole, why don't you give specific examples? Or is that above your pay grade? Quote:
HUGE difference between those and Baltimore. And who really gives a **** about DeCosta, anyway? That idea is way past discussing, since he's not leaving Baltimore. |

Regional scouts and national scouts turn in reports and do the true legwork. Pioli doesn't spend his Saturdays at college football venues. Furthermore, the mother****er tossed the scouting information collected by Chuck Cook and the Chiefs and instead, used his New England scouting reports for the 2009 draft. Great job, Scott! |

Dane, what do you think of Marc Ross? Would you prefer DeCosta to him, or someone else? I know you've probably posted elsewhere.
I'd love to see David Shaw get a good look as a HC. Lots of NFL experience, high intelligence, football acumen. |
