Chiefs Chan Gailey is the only coach who deserves a job next year - Page 6

It's taken Herm and Gunther three seasons to fix the defense, and they aren't even close to getting there.

It took Gailey one offseason, a few shit games and suddenly our offense is respectable despite an inaccurate n00b at QB, a terrible right tackle and a wide receiver corps that's held together with spit and baling wire.

Does anyone else find it ironic that we've been trying to fix the defense for years, it was made out to be some huge ordeal, and Gailey essentially fixes the offense in a fraction of the time?

Makes Gunther's speeches about "changing the culture" sound like a load of bullshit. Gailey's innovation over the last month has been refreshing. Obviously, I still think the spread is a gimmick, and we need a new quarterback to run a real offense, but I have NO DOUBT when that piece is in place, Gailey is the right guy to go about running it. The pistol today was also a neat little wrinkle.

Anyway, Gailey is awesome.

I've said this 1,000 times. The Gailey hiring clearly illustrates everything that is wrong with Carl Peterson. Gailey was hired the right way--there was an open audition, lots of candidates interviewed, and the best candidate was chosen. Carl Peterson has a history of refusing to interview anyone outside of his network (that includes: Herm, Gun, Solari, Vermeil, Gun again).

I have to think that the hiring of Gailey shows that Peterson isn't in as much control as he used to be. It must have been killing him to know that someone outside of his network was being interviewed for a coordinator position.

I think I remember Gun saying awhile back hes wanted to get our DB coach Gibbs on the staff for awhile but they wouldn't bring him in or something like that...

By the way, there's no question in my mind that if such a scenario were to occur, Croyle would win the job outright.

Tyler Thigpick?

You do realize that he went 120+ throws without an INT, right?
