Peter King: Chiefs distancing themselves from Piioli regime
Ummm....Has King ever watched a Chiefs game? Bowe has never been a deep threat. He excels in crossing routes and using his size and strength to break tackes for long gains.
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/nfl.../?sct=uk_wr_a2 The Kansas City Chiefs, in the span of one week, have distanced themselves about as far from the Scott ***** regime as possible. It'll take a while to find out, but the race is on to see if the commitments coach Andy Reid and GM John Dorsey made to three players will pay off in the form of a more competitive Chiefs team. The Chiefs have a deal in principle for San Francisco quarterback Alex Smith; that could have happened under ***** as well, but it's thought he was going to spend a second-round pick on one of the rookie quarterbacks in the class of 2013. The team made an $11-million-a-year commitment to wide receiver Dwayne Bowe in the form of a new five-year contract Monday. Those close to the Chiefs think ***** may have franchised Bowe, but never committed that kind of money to the occasionally unreliable receiver. ***** might have franchised left tackle Brandon Albert, but it's also very possible he would have let Albert walk and drafted a left tackle like Luke Joeckel with the first pick in the draft. Bowe has been an electrifying receiver, and he could be the deep threat Reid loved in DeSean Jackson in Philadelphia. But will Smith -- whose throwing arm is just average, and who will be used more as an intermediate thrower than deep -- be able to use Bowe's playmaking ability downfield? I've never been in the camp of those who think Smith can't throw a strong 35-yard go route; it's simply that the deep balls are not his strength. But Smith in 2011 and '12 under Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman proved there's more than one way to play quarterback. His average yards per attempt was 8.0 in 2012, significantly higher than renowned deep-ball throwers like Ben Roethlisberger (7.3), Joe Flacco (7.2), Jay Cutler (7.0) and Matthew Stafford (6.8). I think there's a good chance ***** would have investigated Smith and quite possibly would have dealt for him. The personality profile, passing efficiency and age (28) would have appealed to *****. But Smith, Bowe and Albert, in tandem, would probably not have happened under the old regime, and certainly not the big contract for Bowe. There will be an interesting chemistry experiment in Kansas City this season. |

It's funny to watch Pioli's water boy attempt to poison the well by calling it a "chemistry experiment", as though these guys are taking risks on Jamarcus Russell and Titus Young.

Exactly. Pioli was the ****ing "chemistry experiment" that failed miserably. NOTHING can be as BAD as that. Yes, I said NOTHING.

Generally, his opinions on almost everything are wrong. He always admits it as well, so it's not like he's trying to convince everyone that he's a know-it-all. |

After a 2-14 season we shouldn't have done anything we should have just kept playing it out sooner or later we wold have turned the corner. King is just an idiot why even post his comments.

There are teenagers who glean their entire knowledge of the NFL from Madden football who are more informed than Peter King.

Distancing themselves from Pioli by emulating Carl Peterson.

I wonder if Clark can set down yet? He's probably still going from standing to lying down.
