JFC natural causes at 70?

Must resist bad joke urge...

His defenses aged me in dog years. Can't imagine what it did to him.

I guess he didn't play prevent D in his own life.

Finally got a stop.

:clap:

He seemed nice. He tried hard.

Well, RIP and I'm sorry that our interactions in life weren't more mutually rewarding.

This will surely make Dick Vermeil cry...

It'd be too easy to crap on him here, so I'll just say 70 is much too young... RIP, Greg

I would say too soon, but this was actually perfect timing.

Best Deberg thread yet….jk….sort of

A very dominant defense in Denver for almost 3 straight seasons. Thanks for the championships and the 5 rushing touchdowns in one game, Greg. RIP.

Wasn't he Denver's DC for their infamous playoff choke to Jacksonville, when Natrone Means shredded his defense for 200+ yards rushing?

Yes, but that game was more on the offense and Michael Dean Perry not getting off the Field or the Broncos would have 3 straight Super Bowls and Brett Farve never wins one.

Almost like Spags knew he was going to pass away, so he honored him with his game plan against the Bengals.

You have 154,000 posts.

This is your best one. ROFL

RIP

Never understood the hire, other than the good ol' boy network.

Sorry.

But should never had most of the jobs he did.

In his defence , ___________________

Sorry he died. Best I can do. Was one of the shittiest defensive coordinators that ever lived.

May him and his spinner D rest in peace, he might have been a good person, but was a shitty football coach.

RIP. I've seen better defense.

Perfect

Bob Sutton will always wear the crown of Worst DC in Chiefs History for robbing Mahomes of a Super Bowl trip.

While Bob Sutton was a failure , robbing Mahomes of a SB appearance was accomplished single handily by a person by the name of DEE FORD.

Bob Suttons defense actually intercepted Brady on that play.

Not going to shit on a guy who just passed away.
RIP Greg

Ughh. Alzheimers... that sucks.

RIP

Get the F outta here. Chiefs offense averaged 40 points a game and couldn't win when it mattered because of this fckn guy.

That being said ...RIP

rip
sec

MOhillbilly’s uncle. Is he still around here?

well said champ, well said.

I thought that was Gregg Williams?

In these instances, I feel that if you can't say anything good, don't say anything.

So that's pretty much all I've got.

He didn't have the talent in KC.

Yeah, remember when Gunther came back to replace him and we thought "instant top 10 defense" but asshats like Dexter McCleon, Eric Hicks, Ryan Sims, Jr Siavii, Von Holliday, and Kawika Mitchell were hot garbage covered in AIDS gravy no matter what and the defense was still shit?

I 'member.

Pretty sure it was Marty who was the "draft king" while Carl Peterson was here...because after Marty left the drafts were ridiculously bad.

This. Carl couldn't draft to save his life after Marty left.
