It's not for a lack of talent, although the Chiefs are definitely lacking in certain areas. It's the schemes, both offensive and defensive, it's player attitudes and overall lackadaisical effort from everyone involved.
Teams that lead the league in turnovers have a serious lack of focus and conviction. Everyone on both sides of the ball look like dead men walking and I just can't see that changing. There's not a switch you can flip. These guys are done. Cooked. Burned out. Whatever adjective in the book would probably apply.
And there is absolutely no one on this coaching staff that could possibly turn it around. In all likelihood, it would get worse, just as it did this past weekend for the Eagles after they fired Juan Castillo.
This team is 1-15.

Glutton for punishment, eh?
I haven't watched nearly that much, but pretty much agree.... if Crennel gets fired, it could provide a one game spark, but like you said, it's not like anyone else on the staff could rally the troops. I was mostly watching the Giants/Cowboys on RedZone this past weekend, but caught one play in the Raiders game where they mentioned 3 defenders had a chance to catch up with a Raiders' receiver, had they just made an effort to do so. Pathetic.
