And who do you replace the coaches with. Coaches not good enough to stay employeed or coaches not available until the season is over currently under a contract. If you fire a coach right now, you pretty much have to promote from within and I don't know who that would be.Quote:

Try somebody!! Their water boy couldn't be worse. I am with you nigeriannightmare, this season is truly disheartening. Clark Hunt should be ashamed!!!
I don't even own this rusty, old, smoking junker and I'm ashamed. I can't imagine how he must feel, unless he just doesn't GAF.Quote:

You can't think the HC/DC isn't wrkng. Double duty is a failed experiment I can't believe pioli let it happen twice.Quote:

I think there is a coach out there who can take this roster plus a draft and motuvate us and shape us into a contender. Needs to be filled with fire and have a plan in place for our future.not sure who it is but I hope we can find him, lol!
How bout a fresh face as head coach - maybe somebody from the college ranks with some fire and fresh ideas who will win with fundamental play. I nominate Boise State HC Chris Peterson.
I think it's obvious that the HC/DC experiment is NOT working. I would much rather he simply be the DC and have a proven HC at the helm. My point is that you cannot simply expect there to be continuity on the field of play if there is none in the coaching staff.Quote:

Well the Iggles are 3-3 and the Giants are 4-2 which means the Giants are in 1st place. I'm not so sure the Iggles are showing "stones" as much as it's Andy Reid having Jaun Castillo fall on the sword to save his own a$$. Their defense is #12 and their offense is #11. Iggles offense is second to ours in turn over ratio with -9. We all know what turn overs can do for you.Quote:

If we don't score a TD offensively against the raiders Daboll shold be fired. Its the NFL, and if you cant score a TD offensively in 3 games you shouldn't be a coordinator.Quote:

So ok, you're right it was a blanket statement, or blanket fact is more like it. We're stuck with coaching rejects so perhaps when the time is right for SP and you, we could look around and find some fresh talent. Romeo sucked in Cleveland, sucked here as DC, sucking as HC/DC, but let's just give him some more time. great.Quote:

Maybe in the last two weeks, but not now... So replacing any coach on this roster now has to be from within, or a candidate that probably already sucks or they would be under contract. I highly doubt the Chiefs could will hire any viable candidate of the street as they could lose their job by the end of the season if Pioli is canned so they won't come out of retirement for this. Not now...Quote:

after the season how about romeo as our DC, a new GM and a new head coach....of course the head coach would choose his own staff. we won't find available people until after the season. we are not allowed to speak to anyone currently under contract, and its hard to get a former coach turned commentator after he's been out for more than 2 years. face it we are stuck w/this till after the season. time to start thinking do we want geno smith, collin kline, matt barkely, etc....w/our first pik.
Kline, Really? We might as well go after Tim Tebow. Another running back who can throw when guys are wide open.Quote:

I'd be scouting coaches, as I bet they do. Or let this ride out and plan the dumping at the end of the season, but I wouldn't let my team think that this kind of performance is acceptable, and they'd see that by some action being taken. Why do you think this screws next year too? I don't get that.Quote:

Me too. I was hoping they would have looked at him this year and instead was shocked to hear they hired Daboll. Jackson and RC as DC would be great!
I would have said the same thing , untill i saw him slice and dice WVU. his throws were dead on accurate while geno smith suffered from poor and unimaginative play calling. and yes his receivers wer wide open yet he still hit them in stride 40yds downfield, across the middle and corner endzone faDES. i think he deserves a closer look. we still have lots of time to debate.Quote:

Who are you promoting to DC from within the ranks that has actually called plays. The Chiefs cant start now until those DEEP records on who is available is actually available. They are most likely under contract to work for the current season. I don't know what team will grant the Chiefs access to talk to their employees this early in the season when that person would most likley be very important to their season.Quote:

I get it, you hate the way things are so bad that you Want to Kill it all now but unless Clark Hunt has everything planned out right now. He can not just Tank the season by putting anyone in there to completely change the way things are run without screwing the season ticket holder who paid to watch this team play.
The same WVU team that had to score 70 points because Baylor racked up 63 points on them. West Virginia's defense is horrific. I saw a lot of wide open receivers and a lot of time to throw the ball.Quote:

I could be wrong, but Kline is not your typical NFL QB.
