Jack Del Rio will reportedly interview for the Chiefs' head-coaching vacancy

[ShowtimeSBMVP]

Ex-Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio will reportedly interview for the Chiefs' head-coaching vacancy on Friday.
Del Rio compiled a 69-73 record over nine seasons in Jacksonville before becoming the first head-coaching casualty of the season in November. The Chiefs have already interviewed Packers OC Joe Philbin and ex-Titans coach Jeff Fisher, though neither is considered a legit candidate to be hired over interim coach Romeo Crennel.

And they will pay him alot.

I think the last thing is the most important.

No.

We know who Jeff Fisher is.

He's a conservative mediocre coach.

Jack Del Rio aspires to mediocrity.

He falls somewhere below Fisher and but above Rich Kotite.

Del Rio made it known that the qb thing was big with him. It's why the Rams were in play.


I don't think there is any way he winds up in Miami.

I don't remember hearing about Del Rio kicking Otis Taylor's ass.

Rumor has it that Del Rio will arrive in the back of a pickup truck wielding a shotgun and demanding he be hired as HC.

The odd thing about this is when Dimitroff took over in Atlanta, he hired Mike Smith, who was Del Rio's DC. Wonder if that connection had anything to do with this interview.

We'll see what Bradford is he and an ok rookie year, and a bad, injury filled second year. The Chief are in much better shape than the Rams, and are ready to win (at least the division) next season.

Random to see Michael Coleman break a Chiefs story citing sources in Jacksonville. No track record of breaking Chiefs news here in KC.

We wouldn't know anything about that around here.

Crennel was a DC in New England, then a HC in Cleveland, then took a step back to DC in KC, and was promoted to interim coach with decent success and apparently is well-liked by the players. If, after four days of offseason, the team is already bringing in castoffs to interview, you can bet Crennel would tell them to go **** themselves with a rusty pipe if they hire a Del Rio or Fisher and tell Romeo, "Well, you can still be defensive coordinator..."

[Messier]

I wouldn't mind Crennel, but I think it'd be a 1 maybe 2 year thing. A stop-gap coach until they find the REAL next head coach.

On a positive note, Del Rio likes to cut his starting QB a week before the season starts.

Maybe Cassel will go the way of Leftwich and Garrard.

Del Rio is the white Herm.

I'd imagine he would and rightly so. In two years Romeo built that D into something respectable. That D has been shit since Gunther took over as HC.

That man has 5 Superbowl rings and coached on some of the best defenses in the NFL.

He's brought out the talent in guys like Hali, DJ, Carr and Flowers. It wasn't Haley. They sure as **** weren't playing like that for Pendergast.

He's united a team, they're all chanting his name.

He's won that team over in the midst of chaos and had them playing for a playoff spot.

And you wanna replace him with JACK ****ING DEL RIO????????

If I were Romeo, hell yeah i'd be pissed. I'd ****ing burn that place down if you chose JACK ****ING DEL RIO over me.
