Chiefs Quest for a new OC. - Page 4

Micjones · 06:07 PM

2010 brings some excitement with it considering all of the smoke these 'Crennel to KC' rumors we've been hearing lately. The organization would be remiss not to bring in an equally strong Offensive Coordinator to relieve Haley of his duties.

Who might be available for the job in the off-season?

Charlie Weis, La Canfora seems to think KC will be his eventual landing spot but this one hasn't been corroborated by as many sources. In fact, I think he's currently the only source speculating that this will happen. Weis would be particularly beneficial to the growth of our 60-million-dollar man Matt Cassel. Can he and Pioli play nice?

Rob Chudzinski, Currently an assistant head coach for the Bolts. He had a hand in the Top 10 offense that the Browns fielded in 2007. Derek Anderson, Kellen Winslow, Jr. and Braylon Edwards all posted their best single-season efforts with him at the playcalling helm. He's coached (and helped) some uber-talented TE's over the years.

Who else is out there?

I thought maybe Kyle Shanahan would shake loose from Houston, but it looks like Kubiak's going to retain his job.

...discuss.

Dane, that was painful to see. It was like someone trying to use the wrong tool and busting their nuckle.

as for the topic:

Sam Hall...what planet are you from and how long have you been watching football.

Billay...they arent starting next season in a couple weeks, the bad teams on that list will be different teams by the time we play each other. To say this and this will happen because of what happened this year is a HUGE stretch.

ralphy boy...San Fran is a MUCH better team than we are and has two first round picks to deal with among their other picks, they will be much improved.

KC11111110..."im honestly starting to think we might end up promoting someone from within to OC next yr. the offense is just starting to click, and to start fresh albeit at the right time (during the offseason & not in the preseason) would probably set the offense back shich is not what we need again"

this is your best post I have read to date, and its not very good. That said, we will hire a new OC and he will run Haleys offense. I would bet real money that guy is Weiss.

Sam Hall · 01-04-2010, 11:45 PM

I think we might win six or seven of those 10 games I listed.

I would think if we were going to hire from within, someone would have been sharing the play-calling load with Haley at some point in the season. I haven't gotten to see a lot of games, but I've followed all of them I could on the radio and net and I haven't heard of anyone else sharing OC responsibilities.

Long enough to know that we play some teams next season that are as crappy as we are. Some of the others aren't a whole lot better, either.

It's spelled "Knuckle".

And I had absolutely no idea before reading this thread that I have to object to so many posts.

Gailey knew it as well, which made it an even more shocking move when he was fired.

I remember us having a very heated conversation when I was still a young pup here about this very subject.

IMO it's waaaayyyy too early to look at a schedule for next season and start picking wins/losses. Too many variables at this point. Player losses and acquisitions as well as potential injuries in the playoffs through the end of preseason, as well as coaching changes could cause most any team to rise or fall from where they are this year. For example, the Steelers were basically the same core of players/personnel as last year and they went from champs to spectators.

HotRoute · 01-05-2010, 12:02 AM

Haley seems to like calling the plays. There is no guarantee we even hire a new oc , I think it's more likely we get an experienced guy to try an groom Matt cassel better

The Chiefs will most certainly hire an OC and QB coach.

But with that said, Haley will probably be calling the plays.

But at least he'll have a few guys in his ear and most likely, players that are better prepared.

You seem a little blind, so I will throw you a bone here.

The reason Charlie Weiss is in such high consideration is because during the superbowl years of NE and his time as HC in ND, he ran VERY effective offenses and showed the ability to develop his QBs into elite talents.

Tom Brady...went to 3 superbowls with Weiss as his position coach
Brady Quinn...coached him into a first round pick QB
Matt Clausen...coached him into a first round pick

These are the qbs he was coached.

He obviously knows how to coach em and could help maximize the potential that Matt Cassel OBVIOUSLY has.

He also has years and years of experience in the offense that Haley coaches. So, the changeover should be almost seamless. Haley and Weiss also coached on the same staff a few years back as well iirc.

If we add Weiss, there is definitely reason to be optimistic about the future of Matt Cassel in this offense.

**DeezNutz** · 01-05-2010, 12:29 AM

Yeah, that Matt Clausen was a valuable player he was coached, which should definitely help with Cassel's *obvious* ability, should Weis(s) come here.

I can see!

RustShack · 01-05-2010, 12:32 AM

Alright Gang. Thursday Pioli will announce that we have hired Charlie Wies and Romeo Crennel.

The Deal is Done.
