The Kansas City Chiefs are going through a coaching search and one of the names that will be considered is interim head coach Romeo Crennel. I've already made my early prediction in the Chiefs coaching search and it ends with Crennel ultimately taking the Chiefs head coaching job in 2012 and beyond.
It sounds like I'm not alone with that prediction. Others have said the same and I heard Alex Marvez of FOXSports.com talking to Soren Petro on 810 WHB and he laid out his theory on how this could end.
"I'll be honest with you," Marvez said, "I think the way to do this, and I know this is not a spectacular, flashy hire or anything like that, I'm all for letting Romeo Crennel try to keep this job on a full time basis. I think that the defense...you've seen players improve under his watch. Look at what Tamba Hali does, and Derrick Johnson and Brandon Flowers .
"Guys have gotten so much better. You're starting to see signs of life from Glenn Dorsey , he's playing the best football, in my opinion, consistently, of his career. You look at the defensive end that was drafted out of LSU, he's stepped up. You've seen players improve and the players respond to RAC
"I think Romeo would be a really nice fit as head coach moving forward because he shares Scott's vision with the addition of Josh McDaniels as offensive coordinator/head coach in waiting. RAC is 64 years old, he's not going to be coaching into his 80s. If you go ahead and have Josh come in and settle into this team, get his own ideas on how this should go, and eventually replace Romeo and you have this succession plan, then maybe this could work. Maybe Josh McDaniels needs a strong general manager to help him have success in this league
