Another reason I think Clark was smart to hire Pioli...
We're relevant again.
The Cassel trade. The "name" head coach. Probably Pioli himself. It seems like everybody wants to talk about the team. The NFL Network is providing live reports from 5 teams. 2 of them are Dallas and Denver - of course. And we're one of them as well. |

The MF'in prick is no longer the GM, he's the head coach.

Main reason is because he did it the right way, hire someone with experience from a winning organization.

What an odd concept. Hiring some one with an ascending resume. Unthinkable!

At the end of the day, the only thing I care about is whether the Chiefs can build a team that can compete to play, and win, SBs.
I would still have preferred Eric DeCosta.

But still, the Chiefs, from a PR and ECONOMIC standpoint, have been in a steady, downward spiral for a decade. It's Pioli's job to make the football team successful. It's Clark's job to make the FRANCHISE successful, and it looks to me like he's hit a walk-off homerun with this one... |

I just liked the Ravens overall approach to building their team. I also like the Steelers approach better. And the thing is, how successful would that Patriot team be if they hadn't gotten lucky with a 6th round pick that they had to be talked into taking?

And it's pretty well documented that the Pats QB coach had to talk BB and SP into taking Brady over Tim Rattay with that pick.

Pioli hawking over the O-Line in practice and being more worried about business given what he inherited than catering to the media is a God sent.
I'm happy to be a Chiefs fan, this new crew is how otter would be handling things if he were in charge. I know, I know... I like 'em, I like 'em a lot and our owner is the guy who made it happen. The guy at the top just set the measuring stick for who he wants under him. No friends bullshit, no more being more worried about who's gonna kiss your ass and placate your ego and tell you "it's not your fault Carl". This is how things should be run and if it's not the 100% formula for success it's a ****ing step in the right direction. 'Yes men' are for losers, you need people who tell you what your weaknesses are and help you compensate for them. Keep friends and business separate. **** YOU CARL!!!! I still can't believe it's going this way after all these years. /thank you for the opportunity to rant

I never would have thought we'd stoop low enough to hire a DC from a Cardinals team that was fired. That's my only question mark. that and trading Gonzolez with 3 more probowl years ahead of him. I know he's at the end of his career, but so is Vrabel.
Other than that its all good. |
