Chiefs Top DC Candidate - Page 29

**The Bad Guy** · 01-07-2013, 08:55 AM

As I mentioned on this site days before any media last week, the top DC candidate for the Chiefs is going to be Monte Kiffin. He would also bring Rod Marinelli as his line coach.

I've been told it's his job to turn down and they think he wants it.

I think Kiffin has evolved some and doesn't run a straight Tampa 2 anymore, but and the personnel is an interesting fit.

Dorsey would be in huge consideration to be re-signed.

Hali, Dorsey, Poe, ?

Houston, ?, DJ - I think DJ would slide into the Derrick Brooks role.

I hated the hire at first, but I'm not completely against it now. I hate the Tampa 2 defense, but I think Kiffin recognizes he can't run that solely with the offenses of today.

Will be interesting. Just thought I'd share.

Those were good times. Leaf wins his first two starts and comes to Arrowhead...kid as never the same.

I have hated the cover 2 for years and years and years now...

wouldn't be thrilled with Kiffin but if any team has the personnel to run the damn defense I'd think it may be us

still

Agreed. The Tampa 2 is weak against the TE and it would ruin Justin Huston.

I wonder if Andy Reids propensity to pass so much (that doesn't give the defense as much rest as a balanced attack) is effecting the pool of coaches interested in the DC position.

I honestly believe that had it not been for three years of film study and coaching from Mike McCarthy, Rodgers wouldn't have had nearly the success.

On the converse, Smith hasn't had the benefit of excellent coaching, year after year, until Harbaugh. And then Harbaugh dumped him.

The debate in 2004 wasn't even a debate: Two out of Three have won Super Bowls and Rivers is far from done.

Rivers is absolutely done. Finito.

Now the latest news, via ESPN Dallas:

Andy Reid was interested in appointing Kiffin to be his defensive coordinator when he took over the Kansas City Chiefs but Kiffin was not interested in that opportunity.

Thank you Kiffin

imo slightly, yes. but then this NFL is all about passing now. WCO is a ball control passing offense, so there's that. the DC decision is mostly effected by availability. not a lot of keen choices.

Might keep a eye on Mel Tucker now that he is no longer with the Jags. Might be a good option along with Smith, Horton and Jauron.
