The guy has been exacting and methodical the entire offseason.

EXCEPT when it comes to his comments regarding his desire to draft and develop a franchise QB.

because every team is open about who they do and don't want to draft

Very true

Didn't he say something similarly nice about Herm just before he slit his throat?

I've given up predicting what these guys are going to or when they're going to do it, or believing any rumors about what they're doing or when.

I'll just take solace in the knowledge that whatever they do will be better that what their predecessors did.

So I guess it's back to "Ginger or Mary Ann?"

It's funny watching those clinging to Thigpen like he's worth a damn.

No inside info, and no, I don't care for the idea.

I just have a feeling that Haley is not even on Pioli's radar - regardless of the connection.

If I were a betting man, I'd take the field.

I should have taken that bet! :D

IMO, it doesn't make any sense not to have hired a coach that's currently unemployed (Shanahan, Cowher, etc.) or a coach from the college ranks before the Senior Bowl, let alone the Super Bowl.

That leaves coordinators still coaching. Arians and LeBeau are out for obvious reasons, which leaves Pendergast and Haley.

Pendergast has never been mentioned as a head coaching candidate, anywhere. That leaves Haley.

Since Haley has ties with Pioli, I'd say he's the choice.

When would they have had time to interview all their candidates, and hire someone?

Herm was just fired a week ago today. Late in the day. Any potential new hire already missed the Senior Bowl.

That means they had 2 days to conduct interviews and make an announcement, as the NFL prefers you not overshadow the SB and make big news. Neither Pioli or Clark are the types to ruffle the feathers of the league, unlike Al Davis.

I think a lot of people are going to be surprised, and disappointed when it's not Haley.

Good times! :D

Oh, I know. I'm just having fun. No offense!

I guess we've got the offensive coordinator situation nailed down, then.

It's extremely funny, it's even more rampant on other forums than it is on this one.

Even our owner thinks Tyler Thigpen blows, it's time for his underdog loving supporters to deal with it.

I couldn't be happier with Clark. ... Well, I could be if he'd come over and wash the siding on my house, but I don't think he's going to do that so I'll take what I can get.

He's proven himself to be an owner who wants to win and is taking the necessary and appropriate steps designed to accomplish that goal. I've really come to terms with the fact that I trust his judgment on this deal. So if he wants to keep Gailey or Thiggy or Piggy or Jenny the Waitress with the enormous tittaws and protruding belly, it's okay by me.

Personally, I agree with you guys who think he wants to draft a franchise quarterback. I would be very surprised if he and Pioli and Haley haven't already agreed on it. With about a dozen back-up plans in place, of course.

well if Thiggy didn't impress Clark fine. doesn't make him less of a backup filling in for Croyle and Huard.... did his best with skills he has. Is he a 2 or 3? kinda up to him to prove he can run in a proset.

exactly. This offseason has been fantastic...The Chiefs are truly young now...new practice facility...new stadium...young owner, GM and HC with a great eye for talent...I'm confident that they will make the right choice regarding Thigpen, etc..

i'll wash your siding, FAX, if you''ll play guitar really loud..
