Hmm LaCanfora, Lombardi, and so on think that Cowher is not headed anywhere unless he has full control and the team has or is in a position to draft a franchise QB.
If Clark is talking to Marty that would tell me that Clark and Pioli are not on the same page either. JMO

I'd like a young and coming assistant not named Josh McDaniels.

That said, I did not vote "other." The only one on the list polled I could accept is Ferentz. An this comes from a Cyclone fan.

Clark pretty much worships the ground Pioli walks on. But he's had a long-standing relationship with Marty. He has bounced things off him for a long, long time.

Cowher is also very close with the Hunt family. Do I think he'd end up here, not likely, but I think it's a very real option.

Of course a person could just make a more accurate list. Yeah your nuts might get a swing...at with a knife that is LOL

The Chiefs tried the "young and upcoming assistant" with Todd Haley... FAIL.

The Chiefs need someone with head coaching experience who can stand up to Fat Scott's brain dead personnel decisions.

There is needs to be a balance of power and a checks and balance system that wasn't there the past 3 years.

Someone who can stand up during the offseason and say... "We have cap room, Barry Richardson is shit... SIGN a right tackle".

Cowher is the best option.

Not only can the guy evaluate talent but he can "coach up" a team.

That's where you take a bunch of guys and get them to play above their level...

That's just not gonna happen.

Can Pioli be an option?

Where's Craig T Nelson on this list?
Where's Gene Hackman?
Where's Al Pacino?
Where's Frank Caliendo???

Ray Liotta?

Old college retread. If we are going for a Screamin' Eagle... we gotta go Dauber.

1. Cowher

2. Fisher

3. Gruden

Who are these people voting for Jeff Fisher? I'd rather bring Herm back.

Romeo

I'm depressed.

I said the same thing in another thread. Absolute power corrupts absolutely...

I'd seriously consider this guy:

The ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brian Schottenheimer?


Sorry, just had too.

I know I know...

drum roll...

Carl WEATHERS!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like a GREAT COACH in those beer ads...

why not just have Romeo as the HC and Zorn as OC?

No thanks to Cowher, he wouldn't come back here anyways.

If you want Cowher, then I guess I should firmly plant myself in the anyone but Cowher camp.

LMAO

they should bring in Terry the Office Linebacker.

cereally then we can get RG69 to wine and dine us to destiny.

He's a great coach and isn't a knowitall, given everything since birth control freak who could get along great with Pioli.
As an organization we need a coach who will quickly rectify his mistakes and move on. I see Fisher as that guy.

Why isn't Jerry Glanville listed??

Fisher would make JC #1 in yards next year.

Also, Neon Deion Primetime Sanders has expressed interest in head coaching positions before, and hence cannot be ruled out. When was the last time the Chiefs had a great hi-stepper?

I see tons of people always saying no to everything. What would you suggest as a coach then?

I'd rather have someone drill into my eyes with a 3 inch drill bit.

Peyton Manning at HC, Trent Green at OC.

Ferentz- no chance he moves at this point in his career
Spurrier- already proven a fail in the NFL
Dungy- no longer has the drive, just wants an easy network job and his volunteering
Crennel- not sure is healthy enough, overwhelmed in Cleveland
Fisher- been in too long to have any drive to start again
Stoops- no NFL experience or track record
Saban- NFL fail, quit on his last NFL team
Schottenheimer- he's almost 70
Cowher- he's retired in his mind
Gruden- no coach has ever won SB with 2 teams
McDaniels- not a hard enough fail in Denver?
Del Rio- he hates KC and we hate him

Best coaches are hungry coordinators or coaches not given a fail shot in their last job. You really see this list as the only options?

How about Joe Paterno?

Spot on!!

Tony Dungy.

Look at all the ****ing morons voting for Cowher.

Goldie Hawn?

Can he play safety?

Oh not at all. I just see people saying no all the time but never providing any other names.

No Turner Gill option?

Todd Haley! ROFL

Yea hiring a "hungry" OC really worked out well for us.

Why on earth are people voting for Gruden and Cowher? :facepalm:

No HC has won a Superbowl for 2 different teams.

What's the deal with Joe Philbin. GB's O cord.

He looks like a dumbass but perhaps he's what we need. Won't be able to interview him until after he wins another superbowl though.

http://prod.static.packers.clubs.nfl...hilbin_Joe.jpg

Philbin doesn't call plays on O, I think.

Oh that's right. McCarthy does. Good call. That explains why his name never comes up.

Who's coaching at Baker University now? Maybe we can find the next McCarthy.

Mike McCarthy OC of the 49ers before hire
Sean Peyton OC of the NYG (SB XXXV) and de facto OC for the Cowboys
Mike Tomlin DC of the Vikings
Tony Dungy former coordinator couldn't get over the top with the Bucs
Bill Cowher DC of the Chiefs before hire
Bill Belichick former DC who could not get over the top with Browns
Brian Billick former OC of the Vikings
Jon Gruden former OC who could not get over top with Raiders
Mike Shanahan former OC who could not take the Raiders anywhere
Mike Holmgren OC of the 49ers

So, what's the connection? All former coordinators. The only Super Bowl winning coaches that were not coordinators were Tom Coughlin who was HC at BC and Dick Vermeil who was HC for UCLA. That's going back 15 year in Super Bowl history. Seiffert was a coordinator as were Walsh, Gibbs, Parcelles, Flores, Noll, Landry, Lombardi. Get the idea?

Mike Martz it is!

Chuck Pagano.

Where is BRIAN Schottenheimer on this list? Rob Ryan?

Phil Fulmer, won a professional football championship at the "university" of TN

I picked John Gruden, but given that possibly the only reason he coached the Bucs was to give a big f**k you to the Raiders when he led the Bucs to a Superbowl win over them makes me suspicious of him saying yes to coaching the Chiefs. Afterall, Gruden did coach the Raiders prior to that year and was less than successful with them. I would say Tony Dungy, but the last time we hired a former Superbowl winning coach (Dick Vermeil), we didn't go any further than the second round of the playoffs during his 5 years with us. You know why? Because we had a d-bag for a defensive coordinator, and only brought Gunther C. back in when it was too late.

Since Romeo will be HC for the next three weeks will he see what Stanzi has or continue with Failco?

What about Al Sanders? No chance I know, but when he was our OC our offense was really brilliant.

This.

Not sure who I want but I know this:

I don't want Fischer, and I don't want Cowher. Not in today's NFL, where playing defense gets you fined and suspended. I'd bet money Vermeil would take us to a Super Bowl before either of them with Flag Football Goodell running the show (i know, flame away).

It's Arena League now, how bout an Arena Coach?

Love the Vermeil idea

Does anyone realize how average to below average Fisher is?

I do, there's a bunch of others around here that don't though.

McNair made Fischer, not the other way around. Dude only had one good season without him, and that was thanks to the defense, which gets neutered more and more every week.

fuck hiring Fischer.

Why would ANYONE want Marty? Really? Norv Turner is the second coming of MS and you want him back???? WOW

He had a shot...He blew it.

Now now now, Marty could at least win in the Regular Season.

Brian Billick?

Who's Fischer? Part of the Cassell Weiss tree?

Separate list for idiots you would never trust with this franchise.

I wouldn't hire anyone who chooses to run Marshall Faulk 9 times in a Super Bowl.

He does have a ring, and a good record.

Which if you go by history he won't be able to do it again.

But the problem is we have tried the "established" coach method too and that failed. If we are to repeat one of the two methods that we failed in I's stay with the YaCA approach hoping to find the next Payton.

It increasingly appears that this will not happen in a Pioli dictatorship. :(

1. No

2. No

3. No

And NO.

I'll take a shot.

HC- Joe Philbin, current OC of the Packers, said to be in line to get the job at Tulane

DC- Mike Nolan currently with the Dolphins, has them playing well right now

Marty is past his time, and I dont want him now, but he could build a team. Norv coasted on the tails of the Team Marty created. Not even in the same league.

Is Cam Cameron on anybody's list? I admired his work as OC in San Diego and (from my remote view) he seems to be doing a decent job as OC in Baltimore. His one year with the Dolphins was a disaster but the Dolphins have sucked pretty consistently since Marino retired and one year isn't a whole lot of time.

I have no good ideas for a head coach.


Give me a dart board without Fisher and Crennel on it, and hope for the best.

Just playing around here but some combination of the following makes the most sense.

HC: Zimmer, Mangini, Crennel
OC: McDaniels, don't know many other OC from the tree, McDaniels has made Cassel successful. If Pioli's future is tied to Cassel this would be the move for Pioli to make to attempt to save his career.
DC: Crennel, Mangini don't think Zimmer would make lateral move

Either Marty

or Dick Vermiel with Norv as OC and Romeo as DC
