Update from @mortreport: Cards visit with Andy Reid is off, Chiefs have not scheduled other visits with candidates, hoping to wrap deal Fri.

I don't think it was ever going to happen.

That notion is bolstered by the fact that Koetter interviewed and then IMMEDIATELY signed a contract extension to remain a coordinator. If he though he had ANY shot at KC or any other HC job, he wouldn't have done that.

maybe, but it would seem like neither party would actually want to waste their time....whatever, i feel pretty confident that Reid wants nothing to do with *****

If we get him, his most important hire will be D coordinator. After Jimmy Johnson died, Reid’s teams tanked.

Educated guess here based on talks with many: If Reid gets KC job, ***** power diminishes or fired. Also, think Reid is using AZ as leverage

Clark Hunt needs to sell this team that has the #1 pick of the draft to build up. Sell #1 pick a QB & start fresh.

To those with the immediate question of what would Andy Reid in KC mean for Scott ***** - it would mean a new GM

Clark strikes me as the kind of guy who honors his obligations. If the interview was already setup, the right thing to do is to interview him.

Wow. I haven't allowed myself to actually think Andy Reid would be the next coach of the Chiefs. We went to him. Holy shit. If we can get him, I'm all in. Proven ****ing winner. Great with QB's, and ***** is out the ****ing door. Triple win!

Good post.

So on to the next on the list - I wonder if Reid has legitimate interest, or if he's just driving the price up on Arizona?

He is a hard DC to replace. That was Reid's biggest flaw, the inability to replace him.

Mortenson just said this too.

He flatly said KC is a better job than Arizona, especially because of the fans and atmosphere.

On a side note, Mortenson just made some commentary about this news cycle and how crazy it is. He went out of his way to mention that he (and others in his position) have to be careful about the motives of their sources because they get USED all the time to advance an agenda rather than the actual news.

**OnTheWarpath58** · 01-02-2013, 08:22 AM

For sake of conversation, who is the GM if Andy Reid is hired?

All reports indicate Tom Heckert won't be following AR this time around.

Thoughts?

ptlyon · 01-02-2013, 08:23 AM

If htismaqe is right, wouldn't we have had authorization to see him, & if we did, wouldn't we know about it? Maybe we did, but I don't know that for sure.
