Peterson interview on Metro Sports
Baldinger asked him about Al Saunders possibly being the next HC, Peterson said he knows Saunders well and he knows his strenghts but also knows his weaknesses (and Peterson put some emphasis w/ his voice on the weaknesses part). He then said there are several viable candidates out there to look at.

We've known for a long time that Carl wouldn't offer Saunders the position.
He wants a defensive coach. |

If Carl is still going to be around (Which he is), I think it would be stupid to go with an offensive HC. Last year we spent a lot on that defense, and while the stats didn't show much improvement, it was a lot better. I think Carl wants to continue to build on D which is music to my ears. And as long as we have LJ we will have an offense.

People will be beside themselves next year watching the decline of our O if AS is no longer a Chief.
Just as our D has turned a corner and getting better we pull the plug on the direction of our O. Thanks Carl! |

The biggest reason this offense would decline is named Roaf, not Saunders. |

There is a different between having a top 5-10 offense, which is great, to one that is capable of setting NFL records. Al Saunders is special. That said, all of our players know the system inside and out, especially Trent, so as long as we change nothing next year, we should be fine with our current players. Al Saunders (and Dick) did a fantastic job teaching the players this system, and he will pay dividends even after he has left. |

Al Saunders IS special. Without a doubt. But suggesting that our offense will fall apart without him? THAT is "going overboard". |

I'm not saying that AS will be our next head coach, but remember this....
Carl has negotiated through the media before. CP could intention for AS to coach the Chiefs is 2006, but he's not above trying to drive down the price. Just my $0.02....... |

Would people shut the **** up about Saunders already?
When Roaf went down Saunders offense looked average most of the time. We're not going to scrap this offense in the offseason. All of the key components are returning. LJ and Samie Parker are only going to get better. Hell, Trent Green could probably call all the plays himself.
