So who are we going to bring in to replace Haley?

Who do you like? Do you want experienced candidates? Someone fresh and young?

Potential candidates:

Jeff Fisher
Kirk Ferentz
Josh McDaniels
Marty Schottenheimer
Mike Zimmer
Andy Reid
Jay Gruden
Rick Dennison
Todd Bowles
Rob Ryan
Dom Capers
Brian Billick
Jon Gruden
Pepper Johnson
Kevin Gilbride

NEWS

Nick Wright: Pioli believes McDaniels isn't a viable option, and Fisher is but won't offer Jeff big bucks is the bad news

1) They're not ex-Patriots.
2) They all reportedly want some level of control which means that, if they are hired, Scott lost some of his.

Really can't envision a scenario where Pioli goes out of his comfort zone. It's great that we have a forward thinking GM who can adjust and adapt to others. (/sarcasm)

Green was hardly a game manager that year.

That was an attacking offense.

Difference is the Chiefs ran the ball a ton.

But he wasn't/isn't in Brady's league. Brady has carried his team this year. He's amazing. We'll never know, but IMO, with a real franchise QB we win it that year. Even with a crap defense.

Tony still would have pushed off, Anderson misses a FG, Holmes fumbles. Trent was great that game we still would have lost with Brady.

I wouldn't mind if we took a chance on Jay Gruden

This idea is growing on me. Plug in Kevin Greene from GB as DC and I think we would be set.

Thank you Captain Obvious. Of course Green wasn't in Brady's league. Brady is one of the 10 best QBs ever.

No shit. I hate this team.

That's the thing, for some unknown reason, I decided when I was a kid I liked the Chiefs. Everybody around me either ignores the NFL or likes the Bears.

I'm such a ****ing idiot. If I could go back in time and slap the **** out of my kid-self, damn....

Bringing in Kevin Greene from Green Bay would be interesting. IIRC correctly, Capers isn't strictly a 2-gap guy.

We have all the 3-4 personnel, but it would be interesting to see, especially with Jackson and Dorsey up front, what a 1-gap scheme could do.

You assume that Pioli is calling the shots.

Moss is the LB coach on a defense KC beat up on. He also has all that talent on his LB corp. Is that a good resume for a new HC?

Plus, Pioli will not wait for a Super Bowl bound team to finish their season in order for their coaches to become available for interviews.

Oh, you are still a kid to me, young man.

Isn't there an NFL rule that assistant coaches by those teams with a first round playoff berth can be interviewed in the week leading up to the wild card games?

We'll find out in a few days. I have a hunch Clark is the one calling the shots.
