Well by that logic until this year the Colts were mediocre. See, I'm arguing that mediocre means you don't go to the playoffs, you don't win the division. Chiefs were very good, not great.

So is Phobia being promoted to clock management coach? I don't know if Phobia is qualified for the spot, but that doesn't appear to make a difference.

DICK CURL

Position Assistant to the Head Coach/Offense
Year Hired 2006
Hometown Chester, PA
College Richmond
Degrees BA ('62)

Professional Bio
4th Year NFL Coach • 1st with Chiefs
Entering his fourth season as an NFL coach, Dick Curl rejoins the Chiefs after serving as Kansas City’s pro personnel assistant from 2000-02. He returns as the club’s assistant to the head coach/offense after spending the past three seasons as a member of Herm Edwards’ staff with the N.Y. Jets.

Curl will work in close conjunction with Edwards, fulfilling a number of weekly and gameday responsibilities. He will also assist offensive coordinator Mike Solari in developing and implementing Kansas City’s game plans in the passing game. The veteran assistant coach brings a wealth of experience to the Chiefs in all aspects of the game from coaching to scouting. He spent nine seasons leading high-powered offensive attacks in NFL Europe, including three seasons as the head coach of the Frankfurt Galaxy (’98-99). During his tenure with Frankfurt, his squad made two World Bowl appearances and won the NFL Europe title following the ‘99 NFLEL season.

In his final season with the Jets in 2005, Curl served as the assistant to the head coach and also coached the club’s running backs. That Jets running back corps included four-time Pro Bowler Curtis Martin, who concluded the 2005 campaign as the fourth-leading rusher in NFL history. Curl was also instrumental in the rapid develpment of rookie sixth-round pick RB Cedric Houston, who started the final four games of the year due to injuries to Martin and RB Derrick Blaylock.

Curl served as the senior offensive assistant/special projects for the Jets in 2004. His numerous responsibilities included assisting Edwards with game management and special projects. In his initial season in New York, Curl tutored the tight ends as TE Anthony Becht caught a career-high 40 passes for 356 yards.

In his first stint with Kansas City, Curl served as the club’s pro personnel assistant where he evaluated players with pro experience and as the club’s advance scout during the season. He joined the Chiefs after spending three seasons as the head coach of the Frankfurt Galaxy of NFLEL. The Galaxy won the World Bowl in ‘99 and also made the game in ‘98 as Curl was named the league’s Coach of the Year after both of those campaigns. He remains the only coach in NFLEL history to win the honor in two consecutive seasons. He led the Galaxy to a 17-13 record during his tenure.

Before being named the head coach in Frankfurt, Curl served as offensive coordinator of the Barcelona Dragons from ‘91-97. The Dragons made a World Bowl appearance in ‘91 before winning the league title in ‘97. Known as the “Mad Bomber” in NFLEL circles for his tendency to throw the ball, Curl led an offensive attack headed by QB Jon Kitna that averaged 360.2 yards per game in ‘97.

The Chester, Pennsylvania native amassed 30 years of coaching experience prior to his tenure in NFL Europe, enjoying a 19-year college stay. The masterful college recruiter had coaching stints at Boston College, Rutgers, Virginia and Trenton State, where he served as head coach in ‘74. He served as the offensive coordinator at Trenton State, Virginia and Rutgers where he was instrumental in recruiting Chiefs Hall of Fame enshrinee S Deron Cherry to Rutgers during his time with the Scarlet Knights.

A former quarterback at Richmond, Curl joined the collegiate ranks in ‘73 after spending 11 years at the high school level, including nine years as a head coach. He began his coaching career at Lee Davis High School in Mechanicsville, Virginia in ‘62.
Personal Bio
Education: University of Richmond (B.A. ‘62). Born: Chester, Pennsylvania. Family: Wife - Beverly; Children - Debbie, Karen and Susan. The Curl’s also have 11 grandchildren.

I felt a lot better about the Herm situation when the regular season ended...

Chiefnj · 02-06-2007, 11:20 AM

"He will also assist offensive coordinator Mike Solari in developing and implementing Kansas City’s game plans in the passing game."

Is it too much to ask for an OC that actually grasps both the run and pass aspects of the offense?

el borracho · 02-06-2007, 11:25 AM

What is with the Chiefs hiring old guys to coach? Can't we find anyone under the age of 126 to coach our team?
