We Finally Have A Head Coach!!!

[FAX]

Just go down the list ... oh ... and don't leave out Gunther or Herm or Gansz or Haley or any of those guys.

They say he's the 13th head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, but in reality, he's actually the 3rd actual, real head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs.

And yes, I know this doesn't deserve a new thread but, when you stop and think about it, what does?

Go Wally!!!!

Okay. That was probably a tad overstated, Mr. Bump. I grant you that. However, the grusty grust of my point remains intact and solid as the mighty oak whose roots are sunken deep in the soil of sincerity, whose boughs shoot forth the leaves of truth, and whose clunky bark is impervious to the vile winds of provocation. Vermeil built the All Aged Team and, not long after he retired, we had nothing with which to build on. It was as though dwarves had raided our player pantry.

A solid argument can be made that Vermeil and Carl were, at that point in time, very much in the win-now mode of things. I can understand that, too. Lamar was ill. Nevertheless, we had to basically start from scratch because our player pipeline was drier than Dallas *****'s cooter.

However, the main point is that Vermeil was never going to be with us long. And since he wasn't particularly interested in building for the long term, he was a kind of "transient" head coach. Hired by Carl to win one for the Gipper, so to speak.

Anyhow, this isn't the time for regrets. It's time to Wally forth, forget, forgive, and show our giant Wallys to the world. My thread thing wasn't intended to bash up on our sad, pitiable, sickening, somewhat disgusting coaching lineage. No indeed. It was to celebrate the fact that we now have an actual true-life, real NFL head coach ... a rarity in my life, at least.

I would definitely say Andy is our last real coach since Vermiel. I'm excited because we finally have someone with a track record of being successful in this league. Reid is a proven winner. It feels like we finally have someone who knows what they're doing. That is a huge sigh of relief!

EXACTLY. DV's been gone for 8 seasons. That's more than enough time to rebuild if you know what you're doing.

Chronological order I'm sure.

The NFL Echo is long. For the Chiefs, at least.

Let's see ... since the Uncle Dick era, we replaced running back ... and ... well, that's about it on offense.

The defense is another story entirely. We have a far better defense than we had way back then ... mainly due (oddly enough) to Herm.

To say that we're still not recovering somewhat from those days seems a little myopic to me. Although, I do admit that it doesn't seem as though it should have taken this long to get the offensive line rebuilt.

But, who cares? It's a Wally World!!!!

Go Wally!!!!

This. If Andy's offense is 80% of Vermiel's, I'll be happy. And if his defense is 50% what Marty's/Hank's was, we're golden.
