Htismaqe,
You're missing the point. The reason I listed the other coaches (Fassel, Billick, etc) was to prove YOUR point that other coaches have gone onto become head coaches after leading the league in offensive or defensive categories, yet ARE successful. In addition, the Dallas Cowboys under Landry, Pittburgh under Cowher and Noll, SF under Walsh, Siefert & Mariucci were continously successful because they NEVER changed systems! It was just a matter of plugging in the right player, not rebuilding every few years. The same could be said for Parcell's system & coaches and ESPECIALLY Belichick's system in NE. Great scheme, never changes, plug in players. That's what the Chiefs need to do to continue their offensive success.
In addition, comparing Al Saunder's head coaching past to Gunther's is WEAK. Saunders took over in mid-season, a team that was flailing in the wind and didn't have ANY success for another 6 years after he left. Also, to compare intellectually, Saunders to Gunther is stupid as well. Saunders graduated from Stanford and has a Master's degree in Psychology. I'd be surprised if Gunther even graduated from high school (though he's probably got a GED). Anyway, there's no way in the world that you can compare a coaching job from almost 20 years ago to the coaching job he would do today. I'm sure that like all of us, he's learned quite bit in the past 20 years.
