LMAO Okay

[BryanBusby]

Sounds like Mike Smith will be on his way out in Atlanta.

While they've struggled the last two seasons, I don't think he was the problem. The Falcons are making a bad decision IMO.

They are sure to bring in a great coach with Pioli in the front office.

He isn't the problem, but he isn't the solution either.

Atlanta won't win anything unless Dimitroff suddenly improves.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

It's the Pioli effect. That team went straight in the shitter the second he came on board.

[GoChargers]

Hopefully McPuss, Reich and Pagano will be getting a pink slip tomorrow!

[Rams Fan]

It's the Pioli effect. That team went straight in the shitter the second he came on board.

There were warning signs before bringing Pioli on.

Stephen Jackson couldn't stay healthy, or good, as the Turner replacement
Osi Umenyiora was a complete bust as a replacement for Abraham
Jones has been hurt/injured in back-to-back seasons
The OL was lousy last year, and destroyed by injury this year

Someone's going to take the fall because Blank's not happy. It looks as if Smith gets to be the scapegoat.

As I said before, Dimitroff deserves a large part of the blame. But Smith didn't nothing but exacerbate the situation with his clock management.

[BryanBusby]

Mike Smith was their best option and they might have a hard time getting a good replacement since the owner already hired a search firm before the year ended.

[Rams Fan]

I think he's outworn his welcome in ATL. 7 seasons and 1 PO W. He and Lewis should hit the road together.

[Why Not?]

What? Mike Smith is awful. His game management is terrible. Don't get me wrong, Dimitrioff is awful as well. Atlanta needs a total blow up.

[Rams Fan]

GMs usually get to make a second hire, so Dimitroff gets a mulligan. Idzik being fired in NY is BS considering the owner forced Sexy Rexy on him, though.

As a Patriots fan, I'd love it if the Jets kept Idzik. As someone trying to be impartial and looking at that train wreck of a team, Idzik needs to go.

[BryanBusby]

Dimitroff has been okay I guess. Just not really sure how they are going to upgrade.

I don't think the coaching pool this year is impressive. I'm sure everyone will say Cowher and Gruden again, but they aren't coming back.

I guess they will court Josh McDaniels lol

[Hoover]

Rex Ryan will coach the Bears
Pat Shurmur will be the coach in ATL
Darrell Bevell will coach the 49ers
Josh McDaniels gets the Raiders job
Todd Bowles J E T S Jets, Jets, Jets

[Sorter]

This.

Rex Ryan and GM out

Smith in Atlanta out

Bears GM out

Espn-Good morning???

Bears coach out as well

[Reerun_KC]

Reid proved yesterday that it doesn't matter who his qb is. He will run that horizontal offense regardless.

He is a 56% winning coach. He will never win anything in Kansas city and the sooner he is gone the better.

[John Dope]

Dimitroff has been okay I guess. Just not really sure how they are going to upgrade.



He's been terrible imo. He's more to blame than Mike Smith for sure. There is no talent on the defense and no depth overall. Hell, the dude even hired Pioli to help him last year and then signed Jackson, Asamoah, and Arenas. come on man!

[Predarat]

Today is a good day for:

I would take Trestman for the Raiders coach

Hopefully he tells them to pound sand.

[KC_Lee]

Ruston Webster might out for the Titans with Lake Dawson getting promoted to GM.

[scho63]

If I was a NY Giants fan, I would want Tom Coughlin gone. He has worn out his welcome and I think he brings nothing to the table anymore.

They need a change!

[J Diddy]

They at least need to fire up the chant. Last couple of times they did he won them superbowls.

[J Diddy]

This guy. I think that he thinks he can pull off a Favre.

[Red Dawg]

The words you wrote have zero fact nor evidence to prove them.

Doesn't care who the QB is? Offense sure was fine once they got it together last season. You sound stupid.

[Titty Meat]

Can we fire Reerun run? His football takes are awful.

Wasn't he the same idiot who railed against Sutton most of the year while the defense was ranked in the top 10 and hadn't gave up a 300 yard passer all year? Now he's bitching about the coach who's lead them to back to back winning seasons for only the 3rd time in the last 30 years.

Ahh that is just too fucking funny. That's the Harbaugh we all know.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

LOL Again?

He really wanted out. Buffalo bribed the shit out of him to get him to play this year.

This times a billion infinities....
I hope we get rid of our O Line coach, and our WR coach. Wouldn't mind bringing Tressman in as OC though, bi I don't think Andy will give up the offense.

Fuck no he's not. Ever. He holds all the power. 2-14 to this, and he was unemployed for about 14 minutes. No one will even ask him. He's the king of the "Kingdom".

[Mr. Flopnuts]

Don't believe me? I just saw this;

http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/article-2/Chiefs-vs-Chargers-Game-Takeaways/86ed0510-a89f-4f22-b933-ec742581dc0b?adbid=10152959906638373&adbpl=fb&adbpr=11373923372&campaign=social_20141229_38022757

The 20 wins over the last two seasons for Reid is also the best start for any coach in Chiefs franchise history, including Hank Stram or Marty Schottenheimer.

[dirk digler]

Looks like Coughlin is safe for another year. Kind of surprised considering they have missed the playoffs the last 3 years

[Sassy Squatch]

So Harbaugh to Michigan is official now.

[alanm]

Ruston Webster might out for the Titans with Lake Dawson getting promoted to GM.The former Chiefs WR?

[booger]

I read the other day the Bears might go after the Chiefs Director of Player Personnel Chris Ballard.

He was an area scout for several years with them. Emery moved him to the pro side as director of pro scouting. He was lovies first choice for GM in Tampa but turned it down. If he stays I would think he's inline for a promotion to assistant GM sooner rather than later. If he took the Bears job he would likely interview Toub. I don't see the Bears taking another shot on first time GM and HC though. Maybe pair him with Ryan with both reporting to the team president type deal. Shanahan would probably want to choose his own personnel guy. Probably Rex too anywhere other than Atlanta where he wouldn't have that option

[booger]

The former Chiefs WR?

Yep

[Coochie liquor]

Yep

No way! That's crazy!!

[KC_Lee]

The former Chiefs WR?

Correct.

[booger]

Oakland Raiders: Fox Sports’ Mike Garafolo reports 49ers tight ends coach Eric Mangini will interview for the Raiders head coaching job.

[booger]

That would be a good fit for raiders owner rocky dennis

[okcchief]

The 49ers go to 3 NFC title games and 1 Superbowl in 4 years and part ways with their coach. I'm 43 fucking years old and the Chiefs have been to the AFC Championship once. Just fuck off.

[displacedinMN]

Good article from TMQ on coaching changes and how it does not change much

Jags fired their OC. Reports are that Gus Bradley is close with Marc Trestman.

That'd be a great move. I'm big on Gus' defensive prowess. Trestman would be great for baby Bortles.
