That isn't humiliating.

Haven't you ever told a friend to **** off?

Crennel would be the defacto DC, but Haley doesn't humiliate his friend.

Haley needs to humiliate his friend.

So is this just good timing with the Cowher returning to NFL thread?

You mean other than for the Chiefs in 2011?

Romeo Crennel is expected to return to coaching with the Kansas City Chiefs next season as the team's defensive coordinator, according to to multiple league sources.

AFC West blog

Kansas City wanted to hire the former Cleveland Browns head coach as its defensive coordinator last offseason, but his hip surgery made it too challenging for him to do the job right.

Now that Crennel is healed from his hip surgery and itching to return, he is likely to join Kansas City's coaching staff this offseason.

Clancy Pendergast is the current defensive coordinator for the Chiefs.

Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli worked with Crennel in New England, and Kansas City is looking for ways to upgrade its defense.

Hiring Crennel would be one of the first steps the Chiefs would take in their defensive makeover.

After the Leach incident, I will not believe anything from ESPN. They have started sliding so much. It feels like paparazzi covering sports.

Yeah, but it comes from Shefter. As much as people hate him, he's generally pretty reliable.

I'm not sure I get this. Didn't everything ESPN reported about Leach turn out to be true?

As long as Jack Harry doesn't say anything about Crennel, there's a chance that it WILL happen.

Krumrie is getting jobbed

Right after that ESPN reported that water is wet. I know shocking. Seriously, that is the only rational explanation for the pendergast hiring. Just an one year stopgap so crennel could get healthy.

Especially since last year they hired Pendergast but waited a couple of weeks before announcing that he was the defensive coordinator. It stands to reason that they were negotiating with Crennel during those two weeks.

Okay this would be a good start for the Chiefs.

Hire a competent defensive co-ordinator, thats a baby step. But thats okay its what this team needs, baby steps.

No doubt, I wonder if pioli consulted crennel on the t jackson pick ?
