Schefter: Chiefs leaning towards firing Pioli
Schefter: Chiefs mulling big change
December, 30, 2012 DEC 30 1:50PM ET By Bill Williamson | ESPN.com ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Sunday that he expects the Kansas City Chiefs to fire coach Romeo Crennel. As for general manager Scott Pioli, Schefter reports the Chiefs -- mired in a miserable 2-13 season -- are leaning toward firing Pioli. If I had to guess, I’d say both Crennel and Pioli are going to be fired. They are a package deal. I think if the Hunt family had its druthers, it would give both men another chance. But the fan fury is so great in Kansas City, I think the Hunts will be compelled to make a move. I don’t think firing one of the two and keeping the other will work. Pioli has hired two coaches -- Todd Haley and Crennel -- since joining the Chiefs in 2009. I don’t necessarily think he will get a chance to hire a third. If that is what is the case, I think the Chiefs will likely make a clean sweep and hire a new general manager (Bill Polian, anyone?) first and then a head coach. We shall soon see. I don’t think the Hunts will wait long before making a decision. http://espn.go.com/blog/afcwest/post...ing-big-change |

Coaching and QB have been the main decisions that have held this franchise back. How do you let the same guy make the decisions. If Hunt doesn't fire him he's the biggest problem with the franchise

The sad fact is that many thousands of fans will buy into the idea that a new HC, new QB, and a brand new defensive lineman is all we need and ticket sales will bounce.

What?
That makes NO sense. How exactly is Pioli making him a lot of money? Ticket sales will be the lowest in the league if Pioli is retained. Clark isn't a stupid business man. Even if all he cares about is money, he knows that firing Pioli is the only way to get more money.

He then said he didn't even see it happening then because Pioli would be on a short leash regardless and Ferentz wants job security. |

I was told an extension was happening. Not that it was signed. An extension offered to lower the buyout? I'm at a loss here. Again, I could care less if you believe me or not, but I talked to Marty 2 minutes ago and the info I have received jives what he's been told as well.

Didnt you just say a couple weeks ago that your source told you Pioli had already been fired?
Do you know multiple people there, or am I getting you confused with someone else? |
