I do agree that I don’t want Shanahan. I remember when he traded for nearly the whole defensive line of the Browns. Shanny can go to Dallas as far as I’m concerned. Maybe Al Davis will pay him the $250 he owes him and bring him back to Oakland. HAHAHA!

Wow Tim, no holding you back! 2 very winning, long term contracted head coaches on your list. But if ya gotta wish, wish big!?!

While we couldn’t do much worse than we have been doing, the laundry list of who we wouldn’t want is immense. My concern is the “whos available” list. I want a home run (more wishing?). We have Pioli, and who might find working here as being attractive is interesting. On the downside, so much time has passed that some great choices are gone already.

If we were able to get Haley, that doesn’t mean we care less about defense. With Pioli and Haley and C. Hunt I think we could be even more attractive to a great DC. There is a huge upside to coming here for a HC and DC. We have an fairly new, eager owner and GM. Our roster is not loaded with aged veterans. We have cap room and great draft spots coming up. Not to mention the stadium, fans, and “The Chiefs Experience” to become a part of.

I can’t help but wonder if there is an up and coming D Asst. out there looking to make a name for himself that would jump at the chance to come here. Pioli is stepping up to full GM. Haley would be stepping up. Who else would relish that opportunity?

sgt_ducttape,
i dont really know the rules or precedure for taking other teams Co-ordinators so im just going to throw out some names that i would like.

Jim Johnson – Eagles – Knows how to blitz well, use safeties effectively and would really take advantage of our speedy linebackers. Would instantly turn around the defense as we would be getting sacks under his coaching.

Leslie Frazier – Vikings – Knows how to stop the run very effectively. Sure he has 2 very good tackles in the Williams’ but he should be able to take his expertise to use Tyler and Dorsey to their full potentials. He can take advantage of our DLINE and craft a really good front seven. Again another immediate impact to the defence.

Bill Belichick – Pats – I have a man crush for big bill.

Jeff Fisher – Titans – He looks and sounds exactly like detective Goran from Law and order. He can always solve a problem. Ei. Who murdered our defense?

But honestly, as long as we get a great Def Co-ordinator i will be happy.

Wow, I was so excited when I heard the news that i sent a text message to my brother. My blackberry has the “smart texting” or whatever it’s called and I typed in “Herm Edwards was fired” , when I looked down at my phone, my phone which is obviously very smart had typed in “Germ Edwards was fired”. Wow, even my phone hated Herm.

Romeo Crennel is available for HC or DC…

I know I will get crap for that…but Cleveland is not entirely his fault…Not even mostly…

If we get Haley I still want Crennel as DC…He knows Pioli and the Patriots Way…

Tim,
You called it, so who do you want with that defensive mind for the new coach? I’m just curious, of who’s available, who would be your pick and why.

It’s fun to watch them score at will and all over the place, but if you can’t stop the other guys, then one hiccup and you lose the horse race. So I would also like to see our defense improve (can’t get much worse) and who you think can do it.

NO HALEY AND NO SHANAHAN!!!!

WE NEED A DEFINSIVE MINDED COACH. OUR OFFENSE IS FINE. IM SICK OF THE VERMEIL ERA STILL LINGERING!!!!!

We need to stop with this offence minded football. For a good 7 years we have been losing because of our defense, not our offense. If we want to win a championship we need a fantastic defense and an offense that gets the job done. Example, Giants, Ravens, Steelers, Eagles. ect.ect.

If we draft an offensive guy, im going to be pissed off. I would rather of kept herm than bring in an offensive “genuis”.
