Brandon Marshall already probably called up Bowe and said run, run as far away as you can.

There are, at best, only a handful of truly creative and innovative coordinators.
The rest are subject to the talent at hand, and can only put that talent in the best position to succeed. And the bottom line is, if you don't have a QB, then you aren't going to have a lot of success.

Daboll not a sexy hire for #Chiefs, but Matt Cassel has had his best 2 NFL seasons in offenses just like his. Pioli going all in on Cassel. |

Again - I'm not interested in hearing why he failed elsewhere. Someone tell me why he's going to succeed here. Phobia seems to believe it's because he gets hired a lot. As though the fact that Wade Phillips kept getting hired as a head coach was evidence that he was a good head coach. Others seem to believe it's because the Dolphins, with one of the 10 most talented WRs in the league as well as a RB with gamebreaker speed and agility, weren't in the bottom 10% of the league...just the bottom 25%. And then go ahead and try to convince me that Scott Pioli would have EVER hired this guy had he not coached Matt Cassel in New England.

I don't have any comments on this yet because I know so little of this guy.
Why does everyone think this guy sucks so bad already? Is there anything positive anyone sees with him? How or why would Pioli and Crennel pick someone so bad with all the pressure to perform? How have his offenses performed? I thought Miami's "O" had a pretty good year: Reggie Bush had 1,000 yards, they went 6-3 after a horrible start, had a weak QB, middle of the pack stats. Maybe he was the last man standing after their 8-9 first choices all went elsewhere

since it's clear Miami has a whole new coaching staff in there, they are going all in on a QB upgrade. You know, like a team should do after an awful season in the NFL. But anyway,
I can't wait to see what Miami cast-off we get out of either Henne/Moore when either (or both) get cut and that's the "competition" we bring in for Mark Castle |

Matt Cassel.
Pioli hired him precisely because he wouldn't raise a fuss over Cassel at QB. That on its own makes him a bad hire. He's going to have a worse QB in Kansas City than he had in Miami. There's simply no reason to believe he's suddenly going to be a more effective coordinator.

I don't normally get worked up about these kinds of hires, but its hard to be anything but disappointed with another loser retread.

If he has any ambition, he won't be just a yes man as it relates to Cassel. If he is, then in a couple of years, we get to see a clean sweep of the whole thing.

In the hiring process, sure; at least in a sense.
He's going to get asked about Cassel during that interview. And if in that interview he says something like "Matt Cassel is a well below average NFL quarterback", he's simply not going to get hired. The reason this guy was hired is because he didn't say that. No, an OC isn't going to be the reason for a QB change, but an OC isn't going to get hired into this organization if he dares believe one is necessary.
