The #1 reason CP should say YES to Al Saunders - (And the main reason he won't)
Forget about the fact that he's coordinated the top offense in the nfl the last 4 years. Forget the fact that he's obviously the best candidate available and already on the staff. Forget the fact that whether he stays or goes could decide whether hall of famers on the offensive line stay or go.
The real reason Saunders should be named head coach is right here. The real reason Saunders WON'T be named head coach is also right here as well. This was from last summer and I bookmarked it for future reference. Some of you may recall a guy from the coalition by the name of "former db" from training camp last year. He's a media guy and former football player from Pittsburgh who is also a die hard chiefs fan. He covered the Chiefs training camp last year and provided some really good interviews and info. Anyway, he had this to say about a conversation with Frank Ganz last summer: http://www.chiefscoalition.com/Forum...=29295&hl=ganz Quote:

The only things guaranteed is that these guys will continue to age, that aging will at some point affect their productivity, that they will get very expensive as they age, and that they will need to be replaced at some point due to any combination of the above factors. We can start rebuilding the dam now, or we can wait until after the hurricane.

You act as if this current coaching staff (or the staff before it) doesn't DESERVE the criticism they get. |

CP had the easiest job of any GM. All he had to do was put a top 20 D on the field, and he has failed. And you think we'd be better off letting him start from scratch? |

Dungy's attitude and approach to the game is infectious There's more to football than X's and O's. Saying Dungy deserves no credit for what's happened to Indy's offense since he arrived is absolutely ludicrous. The only thin more stupid is suggesting that this horrible D is somehow NOT Vermeil's fault. |

We either are in for a complete shake up, or stick with current coaches.. I think the true rebuild starts after next season. |

Indy put the pieces in place when they had back-to-back Top 5 draft picks. They only got those by REBUILDING. They had to go through some 3-win seasons to get those picks. And then all they needed was the right coach to put it all together. |

And what would you rather do? Hire Saunders who will constantly be at odds with CP? Every time Saunders wants a guy, Peterson will be the guy that has to approve it. You act like the fact that Saunders will disagree with Peterson will somehow make Peterson fold to him. CP's still going to be the guy calling the shots. I'd just as soon have him calling the shots for a coach that he actually believes in.

Of course it's my opinion, but with DV or AS in charge, and a new DC, I think we are a playoff team. I just can't understand why you guys want to throw out the proverbial baby with the bathwater. Why not just clean house on the defensive side of the ball? |
