Chiefs Reid should have waited for a DC - Page 2

**The Bad Guy** · 01-17-2013, 08:27 PM

I know Andy wanted to get a staff in place, and I know he did ask for permission to interview Ray Horton, but was rebuffed, but he should have waited a week on the DC.

Horton is going to come available and it's a shame it won't be here.

that's by far the worst anything hire of the offseason in terms of coaches. by far lol

If the offense can score more points and sustain drives, it will help the defense out alot.

I felt like there was about 4 or 5 more games would could have won if our offense would have scored another TD or two. Just going from memory.

It makes a difference. It's no coincidence that Pioli's only good year came when we had Weis and Crennel calling plays.

Meh i like sutton, sounds like he's gona do some aggressive blitzes and different 34 schemes

-King- · 01-17-2013, 09:09 PM

It is what it is. It's almost a sure thing that Horton will be a head coach next year so we would have only had him for a year anyway.

That said, I wish we could have had him for that one year, but I can understand why we didn't wait. Seems like most thought Horton had the job including Horton himself.

What a joke. Horton is a good fiesty guy but has a rep as a vocal black male and sadly that doesn't sit well with certain guys

I would have liked to have him running this D instead of Sutton, but I'll reserve full judgement.

Well most folks would have liked Horton over Sutton, but I think contracts/timing and the notion Horton is being considered for HC positions around the league tainted any plans to bring him in here.

I am pretty blah about Sutton. But it is done and Reid/Dorsey were good moves. Wait and see on Sutton. Frankly the franchise isn't going to sink or swim on that decision. Wack him and hire someone else later if it doesn't work out. NBD.

I'm sure one thing that pissed Horton off more than anything is, and who could blame him... If you know you're going to fire him anyway, then don't deny other team's permission to hire you away. Pretty dick move by the Cardinals.

I agree. I believe Andy inquired about getting Horton on his staff but was denied an interview.

He was.

He asked permission to interview both Horton and Pagano from SD.
