This team is going to have to be blown up if we expect to ever get back on the right track. It might take an Indianapolis Colt like blow up to rectify this team. Get rid of quality yet aging players who still have great trade value and bring in young impact players.

This team isn't that far away. They need quality coaching and a franchise QB. But our GM doesn't deserve the chance to do that, nor is he ever going to get a quality coach without a huge stroke of luck.

Pioli isn't going to get the next coach; Clark is.

Clark will hire and empower him, and Pioli is going to be turned into a glorified "yes" man, which is the job he excelled at in NE.

The oldest players on the team are 30. There aren't that many players that would fit the "quality but aging" profile. Most of the 30 year olds blow (Cassel, Lilja, Elam).

And CP has been saying this, literally, for years. Oh well, and least public pressure is going to force correct decisions.

And I agree with TBG; it's going to be Cowher, and Pioli might even remain a figurehead GM/contract guy, while Chin has full say about personnel. And watch Pioli suddenly "improve" because he'll be stripped of all true decision-making ability, whether it's publicly announced or not.

According to what I've heard, there's no way in hell Cowher will come anywhere near here with Pioli. They tried to hire Cowher in 2009 and he wouldn't work with Pioli then.

Interesting. I do think he would take the job (sans Pioli, of course, then) because I believe that Clark could sell him on "returning to his roots" etc.

Did you hear about Polian/Cowher from your source?

Why would Bill Cowher choose Kansas City over San Diego (perhaps the most beautiful city in America with an amazing climate) or Carolina (where he and his family reside) or even Cleveland, who has a potential franchise QB, WR and RB in place?

I'm not doubting The Bad Guy's source, I just can't see Cowher choosing Kansas City, especially when Jimmy Haslem was a minority owner of the Steelers.

Because he has KC ties and, perhaps most importantly, he'll be able to hand-pick his franchise QB, and Cowher, more than anyone, understands the importance of the QB.

Sometimes home isn't always the best place for one to be in professional sports because of the distractions.

Cowher has ties to Cleveland and Carolina as well and he was only in KC for the 1989-1991 seasons. That was a long, long time ago.

I just can't imagine Cowher in KC. I guess we'll all know soon enough.

I think Kansas City is a quicker fix.

He should, His track record of QB's is ****ing pathetic.... Shit his QB's outside of rape boy were atrocious and Cassel like...

I really hope he stays in the studio or goes somewhere else.
