That's the most likely outcome. Pretty sure McDaniels could get out of St. Louis if he wanted to.

All KC would have to do is offer him the Asst HC job and he can leave STL because that's not considered a lateral move.

If the Chiefs want McDaniels, they can get him with or without STL's help.

Yep.

I mentioned it before - Philbin is technically a member of one of the tree's "seedlings". Kind of like 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon.

This is why I'm hoping that Pioli is looking for someone other than McDaniels.

Rams interested in Bowles as head coach

Rams interested in Bowles as head coach


Is this good for McDaniels in terms of retaining his Job? Or would he have better luck remaining on the Team if Fisher was brought in?

Sounds like Fisher is leaning towards the fish....

McDaniels' problem to me is that he is the anti-Al Davis. Al Davis only cared about QB physical attributes, with McDaniels, and his hard-ons for Tebow and Cassel, he seems to attribute Brady's success to intangibles rather than intangibles + physical talent + mental talent. I wouldn't really have a problem with McDaniels if Cassel was jettisoned.

Cant do that no more

RT @ChiefsandOsFan McDaniels to Chiefs as OC is lateral move, so can they add asst HC title to get him? ... No. They need him to be let go.

It's a front. He'll go tree.

LOL. that would be the natural progression of things.

What a boring ass day...

@getnickwright: An infuriating #Chiefs coaching search update coming your way right at 2pm...

Hmmm wonder what this is about...

Probably a bunch of nonsense blown out of proportion which we already knew about...

"Pioli and Hunt are having trouble finding a candidate willing to maintain the current direction the team building is going. Candidates are wanting more player personnel control while Pioli is unwilling to give up said role..."

They are frustrated that every potential coach and / or OC wants to dump Cassel.

Ratings

Sounds like Clark believes it was indeed all Haley's fault because of all the great draft picks and FA decisions made by Pioli...

If McDaniels is a part of this team.....I won't be watching.

You would think Hunt would get a hint when all these coaches come in and say no because the GM has all this power.

Thinking back....I think Lamar would have promoted Romeo. It's easy, everyone thinks it's the right thing to do and it just gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside. But I think Clark is different. I still think he is the one that fired Haley, for better or worse and I think he looks at Romeo as to old and the short term answer. That's not what he's after. He wants what the Steelers have, longevity at the HC position. So I think he will look for an experienced yet, younger offensive mind and throw a few more bucks at Crennel to stay on as D.C.
If I were a KC columnist this would be my opinion other than everyone of them saying they are hiring Crennel and putting their pens down. Whatcha think?

Good opinion as any.

But on the other hand, I have a feeling that Haley's actions towards the end, may have Clark pining for a little more maturity representing his franchise.

It's 2:05. Should I be breaking things yet?

it must not be that bad, he opening up with the basketball game last night

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

So....what's the infuriating news?

He'll tell you at the end of the show.

Ha ha, he got you.

nope. haven't missed a thing.

Nick Wright talking Queer Kansas basketball.

So false advertising then?

After the break is the big update...

:popcorn:

yes we are

realfreemancbsmike freeman

I'm told Jeff Fisher believes he'll have made a choice by early next week. I'm also told there's a surprise team entering the mix.

What was the news? Del Rio?

AlbertBreerAlbert Breer


I'd say a better chance now, by the way, that McDaniels lands in KC than New England. But Chiefs need to sort out who's head coach first.

beat me ;)

**** me.


I'm getting pretty damn tired of Patriots West.


That franchise is gonna crumble in 3or 4 years when Tom Brady retires.

They will have a shitty ass defense and a shitty ass offense.

And the Chiefs will be where we have always been. I'd like to trade Pioli back to NE and let him go down with BB and that burning sinking ship.

Fisher will sign with whoever will make a push for Peyton
& pay him the most

Raiders now plan to hire Packers director of football operations Reggie McKenzie as their next general manager.

Is that good or bad?

How's he going to stop the penalties

Hopefully it's not us.

I don't think we would be a surprise team entering the mix since we already interviewed him.

He was talking about Fisher, not Philbin.

Also who I was talking about.

So we interviewed Fisher? When?

Supposedly last week.

http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/e...75988/34211956

...Kansas City has also interviewed Packers offensive coordinator Joe Philbin are are reportedly interested in speaking with Falcons' OC Mike Mularky.

The Chiefs could do a lot worse (cough cough Romeo, Del Rio) than Mularkey.

Dude, none of this ****ing matters if Matt Cassel is still stinking up Arrowhead.

Cassel... Losman... what's the difference?

2004 Bills here we come!

Fishers win % 8.3 wins a season

Philbin/QB Flinn?

Mularky please!!!! :drool:

It's funny how when we have a HC every poster is a philosopher about how "great coordinators" don't equate "great head coaches." Norv Turner, Wade Phillips, and many others are sited as examples.

Yet, as soon as we need a HC all ex coordinators who have already failed as HCs become the object of Planeteers' desire.

I'm still on the Band wagon for fresh new coaches. The reason I am accepting the Romeo scenario is that, save for Clements, I don't see any young up and comer this year and I consider the Crennel hire a temporary stopgap one until some young gun appears on the scene.

Maybe someone knows the answer.

If I remember correctly.....RAC has 1 year left on his contract. Can they promote him to HC without giving him a new contract or extension?

Rams have told Josh McDaniels they won't hold him to his contract. If he wants to leave, they'll let him.

Peter King (si_peterking) on Twitter

Probably only if he agrees to it.

That is great news, at least our 4th round pick is safe for now.

Any breaking news that Nick Wright has for today's show?

Nick Wright: Clark Hunt and Scott Pioli are feuding at 1 Arrowhead drive. Pioli wants to hire McDoush before BB does and Clark won't let him.

Maybe they are fueding.

Guess who wins out on that fued?

The one who signs the checks.

as OC or HC? If it's as OC, and Clark won't let him, then this whole thing needs to be blown up.

If it comes down to them fueding over Mcd and Cassel, do the right thing Clark.

Kick his ass to the curb.

If I am hearing him right, he is guaranteeing that RC will be the HC and Del Rio is not.
Josh McDaniels is the OC. NE has complicated it with the Penn State deal. (But Pioli can offer the future HC position after RC retires)

Tom Brady has gotten a lot of people jobs. (Very True!)

You have to have a contract for an HC. The league does not consider it a promotion to go from a position coach to a coordinator, but it is a promotion to go to HC. I'm guessing that's so teams can lock up a position coach under contract.

Rams have said they will let him go he wants to leave.

Steve Sarkisian apparently turned down an interview with the Rams..

Are you sure? This doesn't make sense at all.

I think that is feud. Glad you're not majoring in English or Literature!

Pardon me.

That's true. Teams are not required to grant permission for interviews unless it's for a head coaching job.

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter
Tony Sparano and Todd Haley have discussed joining forces in 2012 with Sparano coaching run game, Haley pass game, as they did in Dallas.

where?

Duno...

oh ok. thought i had missed something.

why discuss it if they didnt know some team might be interested?
