I think I just found a new sig, and I haven't used one in years.

This is truth. Pioli and Hunt went the lazy, easy route hiring Comeo. It will likely set the team back a season or tow.

Jesus, even a Bronco fan can understand how ass backwards we are.

You warned us dude. I hoped for the best even if I hated the "hire",

Give it the **** up already. Players quitting is a reflection of the hc. The same hc that pioli hired. It all comes back to him.

He ain't listening.

It's pretty obvious that he doesn't want to hear it when it comes to Romeo.

He's been very vocal since yesterday about Pioli and the players (mostly the players) but has said very little about Romeo.

However, Haley was a shitty coach and only shitty coaches get fired before the season was over. Think about it. You really have to suck to get fired before the end of the year. It's the lowest of the low.

So what you're saying is there is an excellent chance that Pioli will get fired before the end of the year?

LOL @ Hating Haley.

I said it then, and will say it now, Haley was a good coach. Won a division here, with Cassel. Don't give a shit about the "strength of schedule" argument. He won.

He got Derrick Johnson to realize his potential. Which seems to be mostly lost now.

Got Bowe to elevate his game.

Got Cassel into the pro bowl (that's like a ****ing miracle at this point).

Haley got the shaft because the top management needed a scapegoat. My only complaint about Haley was that he played that abortion of a quarterback instead of Whiskey Man because he simply wanted to shove it on Pioli's face. After all of the above tho, I can't really blame him.

And now he's with the Steelers. An organization that knows a thing or two about great coaches and football people. Go figure.

Mostly Dwayne Bowe.

The Bills fans still soaking up their team's 25-point lead were as loud as advertised. Jonathan Baldwin silenced them with one play.


On the left sideline, the second-year receiver jumped over cornerback Stephon Gilmore - Buffalo's first round draft pick this year - for a 26-yard completion that left only the Chiefs fans in Buffalo cheering.

It was Baldwin's first reception on the regular season, but it wasn't any different than the highlight-reel catches he snagged all summer at training camp. So as the Chiefs face a make-or-break matchup in New Orleans next weekend, Baldwin and his freakish athletic ability should figure more into the next game plan.

His quiet start is somewhat surprising. Baldwin became the safety valve for quarterback Matt Cassel at Missouri Western State. The receiver delivered by reeling in jump balls and one-handed catches like they were simple two-handed receptions.

By the time camp concluded, Cassel felt comfortable throwing it up to his big receiver. More often than not, he came down with the ball. So with Sunday's less-than-desirable average yards gained per pass play (5.8) and third down conversion rate (5-14), in mind, a player like Baldwin can help this offense rebound by becoming that go-to guy when the games actually count.

"We have to do a better job of staying ahead on downs - first and second downs - and creating positive plays," said Cassel after the 35-17 week two loss. "It's hard to convert on third and long in this league. We have to sustain drives."

The Chiefs can avoid tough distance downs by playing to the strengths of their biggest target. The tallest member of the Saints' secondary is 6-foot-1 safety Roman Harper. At 6-foot-4, Baldwin can make some room against defenders.

His 26-yard sideline catch was the perfect example of what Baldwin can do.

Gilmore gave him a sizable cushion at the beginning of the play to try and avoid getting boxed out at the line of scrimmage. But as he proved time after time at training camp, Baldwin adjusted, driving downfield with Gilmore and turning around just in time for a back-shoulder fade.

The crowd was stunned and silent for the first time in the second half. On a day with few red zone trips, Baldwin’s catch set the Chiefs offense up at the two-yard line.

Cassel tossed his second touchdown to Bowe when coverage shifted Baldwin’s way, and after the game he said that there are 14 games left to turn around the offense. That means Baldwin will have 14 more games to build upon his first catch and help the Chiefs sustain drives.

Those drives can exist outside the final minutes of an otherwise-decided game, though. The Chiefs need more out of the offense, and just by Baldwin's first regular season reception of 2012, it's clear he can be a difference maker

Yeah, and Cassel went to the playoffs winning 10 games against crap teams three years ago.

Can someone point me to Pioli's explanation for why we've given up 164 points in the open two games of the past two seasons?

It was a clear signal that the Chiefs were not quitting, and it was something to build on for the remaining 14 games."

I just tested .5 decibels on a synth and it really isn't all that ... sound wise, I mean.

So I got curious and looked it up on a comparison chart ... here's what we know ...

Weakest sound ever heard - 0 0dB
Whisper Quiet Library at 6' - 30dB
Normal conversation at 3' - 60-65dB

Perceptions of Increases in Decibel Level

Imperceptible Change - 1dB
Barely Perceptible Change - 3dB

So ... giving this moron credit, that must be a typo and he/she intended to write 5 dB, not .5 dB. Otherwise, this article is pretty damn stupid.

the sound of Clark shutting his wallet is louder than .5dB
