I want the meanest, nastiest, most in your face coach out there. Someone who will make Haley look like sweet gentle grandmother. Someone who will make Lambardi look like a cream puff.
One thing we've learned this year is our players have ZERO self motivation. They've taken the year off under RC. To get anything out of them they need someone in their face 24/7.
Not that Todd Haley was the answer but how foolish does it look now seeing the difference in the teams performance and how we just give the f up sooo easy. The stupid mistakes and penalties, the even keel approach isn't the way to go. But what coach is out there willin to come here. Jack del Rio is the only one I see willing to go to a small market team.Quote:

But that's if, we notoriously under spend on coaching. And with pioli here I just don't see gruden or cowher or Reid even coming for an interview.Quote:

I agree we need a coach that can get in players faces. This team was much better with Haley doing so. But we don't need a coach to go overboard with that. That was the problem with Haley. We need a balanced coach. Romeo is to soft on the players. They don't have a reason to fear when they messed up and we are seeing that. But just getting in there faces all the time can really turn a lockerroom against a coach and that's not good either. Todd Haley is proof of that.
You're right. I hope the Hunt family makes the right decision.Quote:

A coach that goes overboard like that isn't going to keep guys playing for him long either.
But we do need a coach that is willing to get in guys face when needed I will agree with that.
I would NEVER want to see racist statements! I'm just talking about being tough with them. They just won't put out anything for a "players coach". They've totally taken advantage of RC being a nice guy. They haven't even gone through the motions this year.
I agree with you there. RC is to nice to be a head coach he's a really nice man. He did a GREAT job last week in horrible situation I was just saying it wouldn't do much good to go from one extreme to anther. We already did that we need a guy who can get after guys when they need to be gotten after but won't piss off the whole team doing so like Haley didQuote:

I don't think so I am an avid watcher of the Dan Patrick show he's on every Monday and every time he's asked he says he's not intrested in any job right away doesn't even give it thoughtQuote:

How sweet would that be. The Tampa Super Bowl was Tony's team period. He'll to the yes. I never even thought about that.Quote:

It didn't work with Wiggims, Herm Edwards or Crennel, all three of which that were popular with the players.
Three more games...I will be so thankful when this season is OVER.
I agree that Romeo is too laid back to motivate players. The one week that players were motivated(belcher's death) we got a win against Carolina. Who, btw, beat Atlanta yesterday.Quote:

yeah ill go along with mean and nasty

Clean house. Nut up and get a REAL coach. The rest will come.
I have not watched many games that Gruden commentates on so I don't know if that is just his style, but the game he did for the chiefs on Monday Night. He pretty much called the team out stating all the things he would do different and what the players needed to do. I really thought he was positioning himself for an interview.Quote:

I also loved his answers. I was never a huge Gruden guy, but they guy knows football and he knoes QB's. I would not be completely upset if he came to KC.
But first things first. We still have a HC for the Chiefs. Need to get rid of one before you hire one.
DV was a players coach!Quote:

I talked to Ray Mcelroy (who played corner for the Colts) in high school when he came to speak at our school 8 or so years ago, he said Jim Mora Sr. is the meanest coach you could ever have.
So there ya go.
Does he have a son he's gotta be pushing 70???Quote:

Just clean house. Start w/ the GM and probably most if not all the front office , the head coach and his OC absolutely must go , not sure who all needs to go on the defensive side.
