Chiefs are planning to retain Romeo Crennel and remove interim tag from his title. Move would be popular in the locker room.

There is always motive to get revenge when a person is let go from a team and has a chance for payback. I hope he is given that opportunity because I am not impressed with him as a head coach~

This move scares me for a lot of other reasons too. What if it's because no coach wants to work with him? Does this signal that pioli is stubbornly insistent on the patriot way? Is this a string of moves that pioli will make to save his job rather than build a super bowl team? If so, we will never see a young qb here. Is Romeo the type of coach who will be fiercely loyal to playervlike cassel? Probably a lot mores.

Shit.

No I don't see it as coaches refusing to coach here because of Pioli. people assumed Fisher walked away because he couldn't work with Pioli, well yeah, in that Pioli is in charge, he's the GM. It's no coincidence that Fisher went to the team that didn't have a GM, he'll get a lot of say so there, even though they are the worst team he could go to.

Head coaches are administrators.

Coordinators are teachers.

I see 7 wins. 2-4 max against the AFC West and maybe 1-5 against the other road teams.

BS. With a good QB (which means Orton or better) we'll probably split in the division (3-3), and pick up 3-4 other home games.

Which means we'd only need to win 2 or 3 at the following teams: Pittsburgh, Cleveland, NO, Tampa, Buffalo.

That can happen. This won't be the same team next year with a different QB. Our defense rapes faces. If our offense can achieve respectability again, we're good to go.

Maybe things have changed. I don't hate crennel. I think he's a terrific coordinator. One of the better ones. But he's not head coach material.

Whatever I think your just racist

Haleys the guy who kicks players' asses. Romeo is the shoulder they cry on.

Gregg Williams, spagnuolo, mangini, norv... Do we really need to go down the list of great coordinators who were bad head coaches?

They're two totally different jobs. Dc requires you to be great at coaching players and developing strategies. Romeo is exceptional a that. Being a coach means disciplining players, dealing with the media, being on point for personnel decisions, motivating players, managing the team and coaches, setting practice schedules.

It's like any profession. The more you move up, the less it becomes about technical skills.

Moron.

So the Chiefs are going to have the SAME record with JC, Mo, and Berry playing?

Kill yourself

Bad timeouts and head scratching decisions, you say???

Sounds like someone we all know?

CoMoChief · 01-07-2012, 11:46 AM

Didn't Romeo go 10-6 with a shitty CLE team QB'd by Jake Delhomme?

There's about 100x more talent here in KC than he ever had in CLE.

I think it was Derek Anderson. Braylon Edwards was even there.

It can happen but KC's arrow isn't trending that way with losing 5 straight to OAK at home, never winning in SD and pulling out miracles at home.

KC can't win in Florida, got smoked by the Aaron Brooks lead Saints in '04 and PITT/Buffalo is a tossup.

And that's just the road games.

Also, Haley was the biggest failure of a head coach in this department that I've ever seen. He made more idiotic gameday decisions than Herm and Gunther combined.

As they say, "It can't possibly get any worse."

Crennel and Herm are no where near the same kind of coach. Herm was like ESPN's idea of what a coach should be, just a show.
