As much as I hate this possibility... I wouldn't rule out Pioli going for a vet QB. Parcells obviously loves his QB to be a vet and I think Billichick has always used one too until injury and winning the lottery with Brady. Don't even bring up Cassel, any QB can succeed in that situation the Pats have now.

No, not "any QB" can succeed in that situation.

Not to mention Atlanta. We had two teams who picked in the top three of the draft who made the playoffs.

A pass rush, and a LB or two could dramatically impact our D, and couple good O-linemen could have us putting 21 on the board about every week. Will those additions alone get our boys a ring....No, but with the cap space we have, and Scot fuqin Pioli determining our needs, and filling them, we will scare some teams in 2010.

Almost any NFL backup could. Besides Cassel was just the backup to a now veteran Brady. Its pretty common for the backup to be young unless the starter is young... even then the backup is still young sometimes.

Add to that we don't want to expose our young guys to an extended culture of losing. We need to do something to at least win 8 or 9 games next year. Not as a blue print of the future, but as a step on the way up.

That is contradictory to everything Scott has said so far. We're not getting quick fixes here, and I for one am glad of it.

Obviously it's his decision, not mine, but I still think we should not extend the losing habit. Sometimes that becomes too hard to exorcize out of young players.

I disagree. A good coach, with the help of a good GM (Pioli) can turn this around fast. A couple of quality free agents, some good game day coaching, and we aren't far away. We were competitive in most of our losses this season. And being in a weak division helps us too.

He'll retire if he wins the Bowl, count on it!!

kcchiefsus 01-24-2009 03:07 PM

This dumbass author makes the assumption our new head coach will be the one in charge of personnel decisions.

Scott Pioli says hello.

We'll get 500, and that should be more than enough to get the young guys jazzed for 2010.

The Chiefs already have RB Larry Johnson and Jamaal Charles in place. Ultimately, Haley will be seeking a free-agent quarterback.


This is some shitty ass reasoning if I ever saw it.

theorangelion 01-24-2009 07:33 PM

Haley spooks me. He's an OC. We need a HC. Shannahan, Cowher, Parcells.

Cojones is the key word
