With McDaniels gone, who is out there at OC?

[jcroft]

Sort of feels like the OC cupboard is bare. I know most people here didn't want McDaniels, but I also haven't seen much in ther way of other realistic names being thrown around. Who do you want now?

[Rain Man]

McDaniels is gone? Woohoo! (Shimmying hips in little dance of joy while not actually moving feet.)

[RealSNR]

The right hire: Clements or Philbin

Who the Chiefs will hire: Sparano or somebody from the fucking tree

[RealSNR]

Or Zorn. It could be Zorn.

Which... I have no idea. The guy's never been an offensive coordinator, has he? He went straight from QB Coach to Washington head coach back down to QB coach.

[jcroft]

McDaniels is gone? Woohoo! (Shimmying hips in little dance of joy while not actually moving feet.)

Everyone wants to celebrate that the Chiefs won't get McDaniels, and no one wants to tell me who we should get that is better. I didn't really want McD either, but until someone has a better name, it feels like we missed out on our best option.

Definitely like the idea of someone from Green Bay. Philbin doesn't seem realistic since the NFL has rules against lateral moves. Clements could be interesting. Thanks!

I don't know offensive coordinators at all. I just couldn't have handled having McDaniels on our team after seeing what he did to the Broncos.

I could see Clements. Dunno if they let Philbin move. Hell no to Zorn...

what patriot coaches are left for pioli to choose from?

[ModSocks]

what patriot coaches are left for pioli to choose from?

Mike Vrabel.

[DeezNutz]

Zorn would be an obvious choice, but I'm partial to keeping Muir.

I'm a big fan of having ancient DCs call my offense.

[Messier]

I thought Muir was retiring.

[O.city]

Clements would be alright.

Mike Gundy anyone?

[tk13]

I don't know why McDaniels would be the best candidate for the job. I hate to pull the "outside of NE" card... but even most of these NE assistants that have failed have at least shown some degree of success in coaching their preferred side of the ball. McDaniels hasn't shown he can do a single thing outside of NE.

[Deberg_1990]

what patriot coaches are left for pioli to choose from?

Eric Mangini for Defensive Coordinator!

[Cosmos]

If you're a decent OC, ask yourself, why would you want to come coach this team....

[milkman]

The right hire: Clements or Philbin

With Muir retiring, Sparano as the OL coach would be an outstanding addition.

Bring in Tom Clements as the OC, and Pepper Johnson as the DC.

[O.city]

I could get onboard with that milk.

Although it's too logical therefor wont' happen/

[listopencil]

I will take the job. Of course I will run your Offense into the dirt, but I would take a lot less money to do it than some of these other guys.

[milkman]

I could get onboard with that milk.

Although it's too logical therefor wont' happen/

It's a pipe dream unless Clements has some roots in the tree that I'm just not remembering (a very real possibility).

[O.city]

I think we will see someone outside the tree this time. There just aren't that many left that haven't completely fucked their rep up.

[nychief]

Nick Sirianni?

[CaliforniaChief]

Zorn wasn't from the tree, was he?

I could be mistaken.

Either way, how about Baylor's Head Coach? :D

[boogblaster]

[KCrockaholic]

Mike Gundy? That would be fucking awesome. But I don't see him leaving Ok St. That dude bleeds OK st.

I'd like to see if Gundy's offense could translate to the NFL. he would have to slow down a little.

[ILChief]

Marc Trestman

[KCrockaholic]

I'd like to see if Gundy's offense could translate to the NFL. he would have to slow down a little.

It might not necessarily translate, but Gundy is a fantastic coach. He would find the right system to make anything work even if it's something different that he hasn't used before.

[ILChief]

Mike Gundy? That would be fucking awesome. But I don't see him leaving Ok St. That dude bleeds OK st.

Let's see, take a paycut and go to a less stable job that requires you to work more hours? I'm sure he would jump at that.

[KCrockaholic]

That puts you ahead of Muir,

[tk13]

When has a college head coach, especially of a top 5 program... left to take an assistant job in the NFL? It's not even a discussion. Plus Clark probably couldn't compete with T. Boone's money anyway.

[whoman69]

Definitely like the idea of someone from Green Bay. Philbin doesn't seem realistic since the NFL has rules against lateral moves. Clements could be interesting. Thanks!

Position coach to coordinator is considered a lateral move as well unless he is named head asst..

[ChiefsCountry]

Jeff Davidson

[ILChief]

I hate to point this out, but Maurice Carthon was Romeo's OC in Cleveland :(

[milkman]

I hate to point this out, but Maurice Carthon was Romeo's OC in Cleveland :(

The reason that ChiefsCountry mentions Jeff Davidson is that Crennel fired Carthon and promoted Dividson to OC.

So, I don't see Carthon as a possibility.

Philbin is already an OC. Clements would be a great choice.

To replace Romeo in 2 years.

Nick Sirianni?

Thanks, I was trying to remember his name with no success. Weren't he being hyped as the up an coming coaching phenom on our own staff last year?

I'm saying if you've got someone better, let's hear the name. I don't want Cassel, either. Tell me who is realistic and better than McD. Because I sincerely don't know.

QB coach for the Saints and Packers...tough job

[milkman]

QB coach for the Saints and Packers...tough job

One could argue that Clements developed Rodgers into the QB he has become, and has done a good job with Matt Flynn.

[FloridaMan88]

Rob Chudzinski.

Make him an offer for an Assistant HC/OC coordinator position and he'd bring back the Coryell style of offense that was successful under Al Saunders.

Chudzinski was the reason for Romeo's only winning season in Cleveland... Chudzinski's offense was a top 10 offense in Cleveland during that season (the only time that happend during the Romeo era in Cleveland).

I'm all for Rob but really why would he leave what he has in Carolina for KC?
The Asst HC title is just to get around the lateral move thing. Heck, Mo Carthoun was Haley's asst. HC what did that get him?

The Chiefs would have to throw a boat load of money at him, promise him the HC job if Romeo screwed it up and promise him a different QB.
Hey, I'm not against that, Just don't see it happening.

The NFL no longer allows that BS asst. HC tag as a promotion.

This would be considered a lateral move, and is not allowed any longer.

[Micjones]

I'd be happy with Clements.

[Phobia]

No matter who takes the job, we're going to think he's an idiot if we don't win.

[Frankie]

I'd be happy with Clements.

As milkman and several others have said getting Clements as OC is a lateral move. It would be up to the Packers' benevolence to allow him to make this career move. Unless Clements' contract with them is at an end I doubt now if we could get him, since we are not getting him as HC.

[O.city]

Clements isn't the OC he is the qb coach.

Philibin is the OC.

[Mr. Laz]

I hate to point this out, but Maurice Carthon was Romeo's OC in Cleveland :(

None of us have said that about Clements specifically, though moving from position coach to OC is not considered a promotion by the NFL.

But I do think that it is probably viewed as such by the cooaching fraternity, and I highly doubt the Packers would stand in the way if Clements wanted to persue that opportunity.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

I just hope Zorn isn't promoted to OC.

We need to bring in some new blood SOMEWHERE...

[milkman]

I just hope Zorn isn't promoted to OC.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Anyone but Muir, please.

[BossChief]

Clements is the guy I've wanted us to bring back for some time.

Every time we had a position open on offense, I've been vocal about him.

He was our quarterback for a year under Marv. He coached quarterbacks for us in 2000 and got Elvis his best year as a pro.

The job he has done in GB speaks for itself.

He would be a fantastic hire.

I bet the Packers will let Philbin go to KC so they don't lose Clements, though.

If not, it's happy time.

Broncos play at Patriots with win Sunday

January, 7, 2012 Jan 78:25PM
by Bill Williamson

If the No. 4 seed Denver Broncos beat visiting No. 5 seed Pittsburgh in a wild-card game Sunday, the Broncos will travel to No. 1 seed New England next Saturday. That potential matchup was set when No. 3 seed Houston beat No. 6 seed Cincinnati on Saturday.

Pittsburgh is a heavy favorite to beat Denver, which has lost three straight games. New England won in Week 15 in Denver, 41-23, in a game the Patriots came back from a nine-point deficit because Denver committed three fumbles in its territory in the second quarter.

In other AFC West news:

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Eliot Wolf will stay with the Packers. There was talk that Wolf could join new Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie in Oakland. Here’s another name to keep in mind if McKenzie fires Hue Jackson to hire his own coach: Green Bay offensive coordinator Joe Philbin, who could join Green Bay assistant Winston Moss as a candidate in Oakland if McKenzie makes that move. Philbin has interviewed with Kansas City and Miami.

With Romeo Crennel expected to become the permanent coach in Kansas City, NFL.com reports the Chiefs want to bring in a premier offensive coordinator to pair with the defensive-minded Crennel.

[MahiMike]

Like Jay Gruden a lot but he won't do a lateral move prolly.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

Bump. Because I am getting tired of Tebow-talk.

So...out of the team who were eliminated from the playoffs this week, Cincy, Detroit, Atlanta, and Pit; are there any potential OC candidate worth interviewing?

[teedubya]

I will take the job. Of course I will run your Offense into the dirt, but I would take a lot less money to do it than some of these other guys.

You keep yo' hands off my team, Nilla.

[JoeyChuckles]

I guess the FO would have to dig for a great offensive guy who should be an OC but isnt and is currently working with a killer offense? Who works for The Saints, or Packers that isnt the OC? Something along those lines?

Hire Romeo with ZERO contingency plan in place. Have ONE guy picked out for the OC position.

Everybody screams about how badly Haley NEEDED to be fired but let's make sure we understand the reality of the situation - Pioli fired Haley because he WANTED to. It was the perfect opportunity to rid himself of a dissenter.

Maybe when he accepted the QB spot he saw a 27-7 QB that L.A.Chieffan blows about. And maybe he thought a QB job is better than no QB job... when pension plans are all in place, it is about time served.

[Mr. Laz]

I disagree. It could be a great reason if he is forcibly saddled with Cassel with the clear possibility of being the scapegoat in a year for our offensive failure.bull

so what happens if Orton accepts the 2/3 year 'prove it' contract that i think the Chiefs will offer and cassel is gone? Zorn just turned down hundreds of thousands of dollars and a rare promotion at football's highest level.

Cassel isn't some spawn of satan ... he is game manager level type QB. Nothing more, nothing less.

I don't disagree with this point, although i'm not so sure Orton will be a Chief next year. I just said that such consideration by Zorn can come into play. I guess we will have to see what develops and how the Cassel/Orton situation comes into focus.

[Abba-Dabba]

I could live with that.

If we end up stuck with Cassel and Orton, if he couldn't work magic with them...not sure anyone could.

He should be on a short list. He has experience coaching many aspects on the offensive side of the ball, as well as the defense. He was a OC at the college level, so he has play calling experience to boot.

What makes Tom Clements such a good candidate for OC? He spent 1 season as a OC in Buffalo in 2004 before being fired. The Bills were 9-7 but had the 25th ranked offense with the 27th ranked passing attack. Other than that one year he's been a career QB coach.

No thanks.

Out of his three stints at Offensive Coordinator (which never lasted longer than a year) he only had one good offense.
The other two stunk out loud.

No thanks.

Just think about all the fake FGs & fake punts you could attempt. And the attempted long passes when you only need 3 yards to run out the clock. Hue would really keep the KC opponents guessing with his wild, unexpected calls.... you might win the division!
