Chiefs Chatter increases that Pioli could be back in Kansas City - Page 4

Amazing how clueless the media is.

There’s a loose rule in NFL circles that a traditional General Manager gets to hire two coaches before the G.M. ends up on the hot seat. The Bears broke from that loose standard last year, firing G.M. Jerry Angelo before the only coach Angelo ever hired was let go.

The Chiefs could go the other way this time around, giving G.M. Scott Pioli a third chance to hire a new head coach.

The prevailing rumor in league circles is that first-year coach Romeo Crennel will be replaced, but that Pioli will remain. In 2009, Pioli hired Todd Haley to coach the team. Haley was fired during his third season on the job.

No one knows for sure what owner Clark Hunt will do. He was facing unrelenting pressure from fans and local media to clean house earlier this season. The Jovan Belcher tragedy caused much of the outcry to diminish.

If Hunt keeps Pioli, his mandate will be clear: Find a quarterback. With five Pro Bowlers on a two-win team, there’s no lack of talent at other positions in Kansas City. But Matt Cassel never has matched his performance in 2008, the year he replaced Tom Brady in New England, and it’s impossible to win in this league without someone who can move the chains by flinging the pig.

The bad news for the Chiefs and Pioli is that they’re a year late to earn a top-two pick. There’s no Andrew Luck or Robert Griffin III in 2013. Pioli’s best bet could be to take the best available athlete at the top of the draft, and then to make like Trent Baalke or John Schneider and find a franchise quarterback in round two or three.

If Hunt fires Pioli, the talk is that Bill Polian could become the new G.M. in Kansas City. Some suspect, however, that the Polian rumors trace to Polian himself.

Either way, a looming finish of 2-14 shows that changes are needed in Kansas City. The only question is how extensive they’ll be.

You know you don't have a chance when your college coach won't activate you on game day either.

Ferentz is a POS

Hearing this, too. RT @AlbertBreer: If Pioli gets another chance in KC, it could be w/the coach he wanted all along - Kirk Ferentz.

Kirk ****ing Ferentz!@? He'd be fired from Iowa right now if he didn't have a trajillion dollar buyout. This shit had better not happen

Pasta Little Brioni · 12-30-2012, 09:13 AM

Sounds like the same bullshit as Chiefs taking a LT every year.

FML I'll be done, maybe forever or maybe till Pioli is gone.

**Bob Dole** · 12-30-2012, 09:15 AM

If Clark is stupid enough to let that turd continue to run this organization, it will be the death of this franchise. The NFL is entertainment, and the shit Pioli put together ain't entertaining. It is Battlefield Earth level bad.

He had his chance, and he failed miserably. Move on.

Chiefs Pantalones · 12-30-2012, 09:17 AM

You know, I might be crazy for thinking this but if we win today I could totally see Clark rolling with the whole we went out with a W and I see progress. We need to lose and lose big today.

Messier · 12-30-2012, 09:17 AM

If the 2013 Chiefs are Pioli and a coach in danger getting fired at Iowa, the suckfest will continue for a few more years. Regardless of QB.

BlackHelicopters · 12-30-2012, 09:17 AM

Is Ferentz's buyout really 18 mil?

Wow, that's Chiefs level fail if true. They like shitty to mediocre football there too? Because that's what that program always has been. If you're not competing for national championships you are spinning your wheels in a shit covered car.

What pisses me off about this is the fact of where there is smoke there is usually fire too. Considering this has been growing for the last week I am starting to worry a little bit.

If he is back, you can kiss a good first round QB goodbye and yet another shitty draft. What owner in his right mind actually allows a GM to pick 3 head coaches in less than 5 years?

Fml. So when we say "significant" change, we are talking about the same old shit with a qb our gm is opposed to drafting. Same antiquated scheme. Same focus on a pure trenches coach in a league that values innovation.Probably Todd Bowles as dc and man, who is left once we can that sack of shit daboll?

Not to mention, we can't rule out that piolis arrogance will never let him use the top pick for a qb. He will trade out, just to prove that he didn't get handed his qb, but was a mastermind behind a genius trade out of the spot.

****. This is the worst case scenario because a new qb and ferentz an quickly turn this team into a 7-8 game winner. Which is probably acceptable to true fans.

KCUnited · 12-30-2012, 09:22 AM

We're the Rihanna of fanbases, 8-8 will bring most fans back regardless of who's in the front office. Hopefully that's not Clark's goal.
