Tip of the cap, coach Spagnuolo. Once again, you've proved that you're one of the best DCs in the NFL.

There are two kinds of coaches.

My way or the highway, this is what we do, line up and beat us types.

Or there's the type that looks at what they have to work with and figures out a way to make it work. What can these guys do? How can we use that?

Andy is the second type, and so is Spagnuolo.

Yeah, Spags is one of the best DCs in the league because if his constant directed evolution of his schemes, and how he's always finding how to best incorporate the players he has, as well as his ability to expand each player's capabilities.

He's the best DC the Chiefs have ever had, and we're damned lucky to have him.
