Another person linking Polian's to KC
http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/2...t-comes-to-gms
Like Pro Football Weekly, now Jason La Canfora with CBS Sports is saying that the Polian's may be at the top of the Chiefs possible GM list. Polian's (Bill and Chris) are very hands on front office people and of course we know that is how Clark likes it to work (as he is very hands off). |

Very true that an elite QB will help in hide issues that a team has. They have to though. You have to expect that out of them when you are paying them 18 to 19 mil a year. Same with an elite pass rusher or LT. The proportion of the dollars says that those players will have to hide/mask players or positions that are not very good.

Part of the Indy problem was Manning's salary killed their cap.
But they had to keep Manning so the Oline etc suffered.

Just imagine a Jerry Reese style GM who takes a middle of the pack payroll to the Superbowl without having to force his name to the front page while having a Bill Cowher style coach with some shared control of the front office.

Same with Brady. Brees contract will do the same to the Saints.

I have to believe Polian would actually be grooming his son to take over the job. No thanks to the real GM being his son.

crazy to think that there is one more step backwards/lower than Pioli and that step is the bumbling idiot of Chris Polian.
hard to think things could get worse, but he is certainly the reason they would lol |

He drafted Kerry Collins in Carolina, who had 40K passing yards, a Super Bowl appearance, and was BY FAR the best QB in that draft class not named Steve McNair. In fact, if you look at the 1995 1st round, Collins really was a great pick regardless of position. He decided to take Manning over Leaf (and despite the revisionist history, there really WAS a tough decision that had to be made). In the end though, his tenure in Indianapolis became about setting Chris up. One has to wonder if Polian has any competitive fire left or if his concern is solely about his legacy. I'm not really fond of the idea myself. |

seriously, the owner of the Colts had to take his team back because ole Bill took a backset and let his kid become more hands on, and that was a ****ing disaster and cluster ****.
the fact that he could rope another franchise gullable enough to let him do it again is no different than teams giving all these Pats Tree idiots 2nd, 3rd and 4th chances to coach |

Would it change your mind if he brought Dungy back?

Anyone hear the interview on 610 this morning with the sports talk dude from Indy? Said that Isray "allegedly" had some legal troubles and the NFL forced him to hire someone to take complete control of the team for a set period of time. That is why Polian was hired. Once that time frame was up, he fired Polian because he was such an ass and all of the employees were miserable.
Sounds a lot like Peeholi. |
