John Clayton's Weblog: Chiefs Begin Search for Vermeil's Replacement
Didn't see this posted. I thought it was pretty Interesting...



Chiefs not wasting time
posted: Monday, January 2, 2006

The Chiefs appear to be the most active during the first wave of Black Monday coaching interview calls. They made contact with Chargers offensive coordinator Cam Cameron, Redskins defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, and Ravens offensive coordinator Jim Fassel. They will have to wait until next week to talk to Williams because the Redskins are playing on Saturday. Chiefs offensive coordinator Al Saunders is going to get an interview and is expected to finish in the final three. There is still the possibility team president Carl Peterson might go after Herman Edwards -- the Chiefs reportedly plan to contact the Jets for permission to speak with Edwards -- but, because of tampering rules, Edwards might have to work out a trade compensation arrangement with the Jets if he were to accept a Kansas City offer.

I also think one of the reasons Carl isn't sold on Al is the situation with LJ. Al's never been a big fan of LJ, and prefers the scatback type runner. I think Carl would like to know he has a coach who's committed to running his thoroughbred.
I understand that concern. And I almost wonder if Al went out of his way to prove that. LJ started like 9 times and still had a zillion carries. He actually gave LJ more carries than Priest has ever had in a season, in far less time... he definitely "ran the thoroughbred".

If that freaking LB in NE can catch 3 TDs, Tony should be getting more than 2 a year.

Well we could've done better, I'd agree, but I'm talking as a whole... Tony was coming off a 100 catch, 1200 yard season and a 10 TD season the year before that... it's not like Al has a history of not utilizing him.

No doubt, I'm not trying to criticize Al. I wish he could stay as OC.

I just think there is no excuse for Tony not getting the ball in the red zone. The Ravens split Heap out wide and threw a jump ball. We never do stuff like that.

Fassel could well up as the Vikings new coach. Apparently Ziggy Wolf likes him from when he was a Giants season ticket holder.

Of course those bitching about Gonzo not getting the tds, we have had two damn good goal line backs in Priest and LJ.

The people bitching about Gonzo's TD totals are probably the same ones who bitch when drop back to pass on 1st and goal.

I can see many reasons why we'd interview him:

-Pick the brain of a divisional coach
-Marty reccomended him
-Trent Green may have mentioned him (used to be head coach at Green's alma mater). Also was QB coach of the Redskins I think when Green was there.
-Relatively young (44) thus fitting in with what Lamar said about getting a coach who could be here for a while and not a quick fix.

Other than that though, I don't see him having much of a shot at the job. But I don't think he'd be a worse pick than Saunders, who is almost 60...

I have no problems dropping back to pass on 1st and goal. I do have a problem when the play call is some cute exotic pass designed to go to some second or third stringer in an effort to trick a defense. My opinion is you have playmakers, use them, don't stick them in there as decoys. Either hand it off or get it to Gonzo. Boerighter should be an end zone threat too considering what he did a few years ago and his size. I have no idea what happened to him (though he may just suck now, I'm not blaming Saunders on that one, although I do think it is rediculous that we don't have a better reciever on the roster than Chris Horn, who has no business on this football team, I don't care how hard he works).

Frankly though I don't see why we don't go downfield to Gonzo more often. That's his strength, going up and getting the ball against smaller defenders. When we're at the 25-30 yard line we should take our shots at him downfield in the end zone more...

there is no coach who won't commit to LJ after this season.

VARSITY
pastabelly's take:

Dick Vermeil, Kansas City (retired)
Overview: Despite having one of the NFL's most powerful offenses in Vermeil's stint, the Chiefs advanced to the playoffs just once in his five years with the club. And now, this is a team at the crossroads, with one of the oldest rosters in the league and perhaps too few emerging youngsters. With president/general manager Carl Peterson at the helm, Kansas City is one of the NFL's best-run operations. But the Chiefs haven't developed a young quarterback, the supposed upgrades on defense seemed to diminish as the season wore on, and the rest of the division remains formidable.

Next for Vermeil: At age 69, and with plenty of outside ventures still on his plate, Vermeil has said his retirement is permanent. At least as far as coaching, you've got to take him at his word. But before making his initial return to the NFL sideline after a lengthy hiatus, Vermeil worked as a college football analyst and a return to the broadcast booth certainly is not out of the question.

Next for Chiefs: Vermeil has been lobbying the last two years for Al Saunders, his offensive coordinator, to succeed him. Then last week, he mentioned Herm Edwards of the New York Jets in a totally unsolicited comment. But it's Peterson, not Vermeil, who will determine the new coach, and so the process might be more inclusive than anyone has realized. Don't rule out Ferentz, who has previous NFL experience. And we would all be naïve, given all the smoke surrounding Edwards, to think there isn't some fire that accompanies it. Edwards, as ESPN.com has noted in recent weeks, is going to make an issue of his compensation level. How big an issue? Big enough. In the end, he's likely to remain with the Jets, but his situation bears watching

Cam Cameron was on Jimmy Johnson's staff during the Cowboy's glory years in the 90's. He's well versed in the Coryell/Zampese offense and has been the main reason that San Deigo has become an offensive power (along with mentoring Drew Brees).

Vermeil recommended him to Marty, not the other way around.

The reason Tony didn't get as many TD's this year is because Green finally figured out you throw into triple coverage bad things happen, and I'm happy about that.
