We can't game plan other teams. Our entire game plan is on protecting our QB. That's a good thing right?

How can you game plan when you couldnt even game plan your defense in a playoff game?

Yet people were expecting something else?

Let's give Roleo a break, guys. It's very difficult to game plan when you only practice 1 day a week.

Besides, he said it about as clearly as you can when he stated, "Yesterday the whole team needed to be more consistent but there are areas that need to be more consistent and if we played more consistently and better then we'd be better. But you see flashes of consistency you just don't see consistency when we're not consistently good."

I mean, that is straight talk from the head coach. Pure and consistent.

He can't be a head coach. I don't know how anyone ever thought he could be a head coach. He's not a leader, he's not a task-master. He's the good cop to a real HC's bad cop.

Just another in the long line of Pioli fuckups. There's no way this person could've come across in interviews as a legitimate head coaching candidate.

I don't blame Romeo for much of this team's failings. He was put in a nearly impossible situation with Cassel.

I blame Romeo for not hiring a defensive coordinator so that he could focus on running the team, however. He should have known better.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I don't think Romeo cuts it as a head coach. And I think the league has clearly passed by his defensive scheme. Great teacher, great defensive coordinator in his time, but he has not kept up.

Bye bye.

3 fumbles and another int because of bad hands is on the HC. That's an attitude/discipline issue.

The missed assignments and snowball effect we keep experiencing is on the HC, that's a training thing.

Romeo's done a piss-poor job this year as a HC. His situation isn't any worse than the one Wisenhunt has in Arizona and Wisenhunt has gone 4-0 playing one of the more difficult opening schedules in football. His teams are playing smart, disciplined football and not beating themselves.

It's no different than looking at Pioli vs. guys like Dimitroff, Baalke and Rick Smith. Sure, you can find excuses for failure if you look for them - but guys that have similar excuses haven't needed them in other organizations because they've done their jobs extremely well.

Romeo hasn't.

Prior to that, he has openly talked about Orton, Manning, RG3, Tannehill and how "Matt Cassel is the quarterback until we get another quarterback"....he also made it a point to interview every good qb at the combine.

I think the old man is in over his head, but only because Pioli totally fucked him over.

Romeo doesn't even care whats going on. I know we always talk extremes and say a coach doesn't care when he does, but does Romeo actually care? Its so weird hearing him talk. He is usually like a sentence away from saying, "I am a puppet and I don't care what happens." It's unreal. He is a puppet, he knows it, he knows the media knows it, and we all know Pioli knows we know. You know?

Let me rephrase that.

I don't think he's doing that because he doesn't care. I think he's doing that because he's frustrated and handcuffed on a decision he didn't want to make.

You know, I think that we sometimes tend to read too much into the things that coaches and GMs say. It's natural, of course, since we are only given sparse tidbits of information and are, therefore, forced to extrapolate on those crumbs.

Let's face it. Roleo took this job because HC is a better job than DC. There's more pay, prestige, a bigger office, and a better retirement package. How things turn out in the end so far as wins and losses are concerned aren't as important to a 65 year-old veteran of the wars compared to a younger man whose competitive spirit is waxing.

Does he care whether or not Cassel is a crap fest of a quarterback? I'm sure he does ... but probably not to the extent that some of us would like to believe.

He knew coming in he was going to be handcuffed. He's known Pioli for over TWENTY YEARS. He's worked with him before.

To suggest that he was somehow "hoodwinked" by Pioli suggests that Romeo is an idiot, because anybody with 1 eye could see what was coming.

One could argue that, based on NFL history alone, he was destined to fail and therefore should have never been considered, regardless of merit.

That being said, he deserved to be CONSIDERED. However, we all know that he was the first, and only, choice.

CoMoChief

10-02-2012, 04:51 PM

Do I think Crennel is the right man for the job? I dunno yet. As much as people wanna jump ship and want Crennel fired, I still think it's too small of a sample size. Yes we've been getting blown out, and some of it may indeed be coaching. People are all of a sudden questioning his scheme and whether it's outdated etc. He's been successful in this league running that defense, and I think it's a bit too early to really say that the game has passed him by. Players play....coaches coach. Romeo can't be faulted for Berry getting raped by Gates all afternoon. Romeo can't be faulted for our DE's getting their shit pushed in.

And that's another problem. This team has done nothing but finger point the last few seasons instead of taking responsibility for their own performances.

He's been given a crappy QB. But he knew that going into the job. He's won w/ shitty QB's before (Anderson) and that was with shitty talent all over. Maybe he thought he could win w/ Cassel as long as there was a good coaching foundation set in place (aka no Haley sticking his dick into the playcalling all the time) and as long as there was lots of talent surrounding him.

He was wrong. As it's been fairly apparant that nothing is going to ever make Cassel better than what he is. Injuries mounted up on the defense and the depth on this defense (especially in the secondary) is less than serviceable (Pioli's fault).

The best thing Romeo can do now is to move on from Cassel. Insanity is defined by doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Cassel has done nothing but suck while in KC except for one season where he didn't turn over the ball often because he wasn't really give a chance to. We ran the ball so ****ing much and were good at doing it, all Cassel had to do was take care of the football, which he did exceptionally well that season...which I will give him credit for. Now it was against a bunch of teams that had losing records except for one (which we lost that game). That's not his fault, but it's reality. But other than in 2010, he's been complete dogshit. The best Cassel can do is be just good enough to take care of the ball and put the team in a position to beat the shitty bottom feeders teams of the league.

Need to put in Quinn. Need some sort of change in the status quo because Cassel isn't working and he's turning the ball over. You're not going to win games in the NFL if you turn the ball over all the time, it's that simple. Romeo can't be blamed for Cassel throwing picks left and right and fumbling the football in their own territory. The defense can't be held responsible for giving up points in that situation either.

What it comes down to, is that Romeo (as a HC) has to realize when the team has completely lost faith in what "should be" the leader of the football team on the field (the QB). I think it's pretty obvious that it's a chain reaction that when your QB loses all confidence in his own ability to play the game, the offense as a whole feels that as well, and the down-spiraling of the team as a whole occurs. You can even see it on the sidelines.....Cassel mopes around, almost acts like he doesn't care even. Just goes off into his own little world with a blank stare. Losing is fucking contagious and people can see it, especially if it's "what's supposed to be" your leader on offense.

Why do you think the great QB's in this league make their entire team play better? It's because other players know they have a ****ing field general that can lead them to victory. Which is exactly the complete opposite of what we have here in KC. Hell even the coach knows it, which is why we went full Herm-tard on offense during that last drive against the Saints. We could have easily had the chance to go for a win, but played it safe and ran the ball to keep it out of Cpt ****up's hands.

You don't have to be a NFL coach, scout, former player, etc. to see that the team has lost complete confidence of Cassel at this point. You could even see the little bit of life that came to our team whenever Orton was playing last season. KYLE ****ING ORTON!!!! And he even sucks in his own right, but at least he can look like a real ****ing QB at times and lead and offense down the field.

Time to put in Quinn. He may suck it up...but to keep Cassel in at this point is just plain insanity...and I think it's at least telling your players that you want to try something different and move on from the failure that he brings to the table. I mean at some point there has to be a change somewhere...and Cassel seems to be the root to the whole problem, and Pioli for sticking w/ Cassel.

True. Even Bellichek is showing that his early success had as much to do about one man, Tom Brady, along with a crazy amount of luck in his first few drafts. I say luck based off of his more recent drafts. For a defensive mastermind and draft guru he sure has had a bad defense despite all the draft picks and time to fix it.

John Clayton said they'll probably give it a couple weeks but Quinn is on deck. He said Cassel was given the dreadful vote of confidence by Crennel. If the turnovers continue and no improvement by Cassel we'll likely see Quinn after the bye maybe sooner being that our record is poor and time is running out.Yup

The headline on the screen while he was talking said: Romeo said Cassel will start against Ravens, but that Quinn could play.

John flat out said that this will be a two week process and that if Cassel doesn't turn things around that Quinn will be the quarterback.

As for Roleo, I don't understand why Pioli fell for the idea that he could serve as an effective head coach and function as DC simultaneously. It seems like, for most people, dual roles are too much to bite off. I know that Roleo said he had a great staff who could take on a lot of the burden and that sounds good, but I can't help but believe that the defense would be performing at a higher level if we had a full-time DC.

Competition for the starting quarterback job.

Kinda like 2006 with Bledsoe and Romo....when Romo took over around week 6...after Parcells said over and over "there is no QB competition."

"Romo eventually took over the starting quarterback role from Drew Bledsoe during half time against the New York Giants on October 23, 2006."

As expected, Romeo Crennel doesn't have any answers; no concrete direction to correct what is wrong with this team. His defense is under-performing (probably because they lack the proper coaching) and his offense is burdened with a known coach-killer. In a normal franchise, Crennel would hire someone to be DC for the remainder of the year and would be actively seeking a solution at the QB position. In a normal franchise, Pioli would be actively seeking a legit head coach who wasn't knocking at the door of retirement and would be actively planning the acquisition of a legit 1st round QB. Of course the Chiefs are not a normal franchise so who knows what will happen.

What if Crennel (and Clark knows about this) is Pioli's Gunther? Maybe Crennel is just a stopgap coach for the year then he goes out and finds a coach he really wants? Nevermind that's stupid. He had all offseason it's not like he had slim pickings.

Depends on who is GM. If it's Pioli, I agree that Stanzi is on the roster, if for nothing else than to mitigate more criticism of Egoli's "ability" to evaluate talent.

Rodgers, Ruthlessrapist, and Brees (3 of the top 6 QB's in the league) were not top 5 picks.

They were picked by GM's that know how to spot talent and put talent around them...
IMO the good qb's are going to be gone top ten pretty much every year.

Top three out by eight last year.

Qb driven league, slotting pay for draftees. Teams take more chances early

Nope. This organization has to be painted into a corner where the only thing they can do is TAKE THE GODDAMN QB.

I'd also like to add that I'm kinda sick of people pointing out that there might only be 5 or 6 teams that will be looking for a qb.

How many teams currently have a franchise qb over the age of 35?

Do I think Crennel is the right man for the job? I dunno yet. As much as people wanna jump ship and want Crennel fired, I still think it's too small of a sample size.

Get fucked with this logic.

Crennel is a 60 something HC that failed miserably in his last stop. He's not going to change now. He's doing the same shit he did there - sticking with a garbage QB, having a completely undisciplined team, and showcasing a defense that can't stop anybody.

I've seen more than enough. Interim HC's rarely pan out when given the reigns full time.

Leaving Charles in that game when it was out of hand last week was a fucking joke. Leaving Cassel in the game during blowouts weeks 2 and 4 was a fucking joke.

And plus...guys like Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer won a superbowl!!!

Stupid comment and in no way related to my post.

We only feel like we have to take a QB this year because our idiot GM didn't fix the problem the last four years. The guy who made a point of investing picks in our D line that still isn't much above piss poor.

But, by God, this year you guys really want it...so gosh darned it, just for you, Pioli is going to do the exact opposite of what he's stated he'd do and has done in the past and take that top 10 QB...

Depends on the definition of "turning things around". If you go by a reasonable definition, he never will. You go by the one the organization is desperate to use, he may.

This.

We'll run the ball a ton against the Ravens. We'll have 3-and-out after 3-and-out along with the occasional FG drive. The defense plays lights out.

We end up losing 27-17 and Cassel goes 14-18 for 127 yards, 1 TD, and 0 INTs.

And the Chiefs will say he graded out perfectly and re-cemented himself as the starter.

Those 3 were all taken in the days when you didn't take a chance on a borderline guy because you had to pay him $50M.

Just look at the last 2 drafts. When you've got guys like Tannehill going in the top 10, you know those days are over.
