Schefter: Chiefs leaning towards firing Pioli
Schefter: Chiefs mulling big change
December, 30, 2012
DEC 30 1:50PM ET
By Bill Williamson | ESPN.com


ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Sunday that he expects the Kansas City Chiefs to fire coach Romeo Crennel.

As for general manager Scott Pioli, Schefter reports the Chiefs -- mired in a miserable 2-13 season -- are leaning toward firing Pioli.

If I had to guess, I’d say both Crennel and Pioli are going to be fired. They are a package deal. I think if the Hunt family had its druthers, it would give both men another chance. But the fan fury is so great in Kansas City, I think the Hunts will be compelled to make a move.

I don’t think firing one of the two and keeping the other will work.

Pioli has hired two coaches -- Todd Haley and Crennel -- since joining the Chiefs in 2009. I don’t necessarily think he will get a chance to hire a third. If that is what is the case, I think the Chiefs will likely make a clean sweep and hire a new general manager (Bill Polian, anyone?) first and then a head coach.

We shall soon see. I don’t think the Hunts will wait long before making a decision.

Its pretty know fact. Generally among the season ticket holder base, you will have:

10k or so are the Deb and Luzap types.
10k or so are business tickets
10k or so the total hardcore football fans aka CP posters.

You would have an average of 30k or so just on those demographics. The casual fan it what takes the 30k up to the 70k+ plus crowds. Its what Carl Peterson knew and understood well.

Its simple really especially in the midwest - make it fun, make the players envolved in the community, and win enough to put you in the hunt each year.

If Pioli hires Chip Kelly or the equivalent
If Pioli drafts Geno Smith or the equivalent
If the Chiefs start playing well

You will all be back

But this is the type of emotional reaction that might not be honest or realistic. I've been following this piece of shit organization for decades, so this isn't the type of interest that can be turned on or off like a switch.

I understand that Pioli's pomp and incompetence has been eroding passion and general interest, but any organization is far larger than one person...

Tough situation for fans.
What they do in the draft will hold a lot more weight in my eyes than if Pioli is fired or kept.

If I could chose between keeping Pioli and drafting Geno Smith with our pick OR firing Pioli and NOT choosing Geno...Id be fine with Pioli staying.

Ok, you can take the tin foil hats off. That idea is silly.
About as much as, Pioli staying, Marty taking over HC with Pioli having a hard on for Barkley & Glennon.

This would probably just kill me!

This scares me looking into the future.

I will continue to watch with a keen eye to see what moves are made. Anything less than GREAT choices for HC and QB and I'm done.

I'm just curious as to what will be Clark's reasoning if indeed Pioli is retained and even given an extension...

There is literally NOTHING he can say to justify it so it'd be hilarious to watch.

I just cannot believe this guy would be that goddamn stupid...
