New Chiefs defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel is in Orlando for the next week, as he’ll handle the East Squad in the annual East-West Shrine Game.
He can learn a great deal about his new home if he talks with the coach of the West Squad, former Chiefs head coach Marty Schottenheimer. The game will go off next Saturday at 2 p.m. CST from the Citrus Bowl. Practices start on Monday in Florida.

Well, the relationship between Pioli, Weis and Crennel is continually cited but people (i.e. Trent) forget that the relationship with Haley, Weis and Crennel goes back a decade as well. Pioli may have the more recent familiarity with these coaches in New England, but it’s not like Haley hasn’t used both of them as sounding boards throughout his rise from NFL assistant to head coach.
A mini Belichick he isn’t, but Todd Haley must feel extremely confident in his position as the Kansas City Chiefs head coach. He’s made two bold hires this off-season: Charlie Weis as offensive coordinator and Romeo Crennel as defensive coordinator, making Kansas City the New England of the Midwest.
Haley worked with Weis for three years with the New York Jets. He has now recreated the successful coach-coordinator combination that worked so well for the Patriots.

The Broncos handled Phillips’ Dallas Cowboys this year. They needed Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey to bail them out at the end, but the Broncos defeated the favored Cowboys 17-10.
At the time, the Broncos were 4-0, on their way to 6-0. The Cowboys were seemingly reeling at 2-2 and needed overtime the next week before defeating the dreadful Kansas City Chiefs.

Dreadful eh? The same dreadful team that kicked the living crap out of the dreadful, choke artist Denver Broncos and knocked them out of the playoffs? That dreadful team? Just wanted to be clear.
While Crennel might not have made it as a head coach in his initial attempt, there remains little doubt about his abilities as a defensive coordinator. McGinest and Johnson were glad to see him back in an active role after a year off due to hip surgery, as Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli continues to enhance his collection of former Patriots personnel.
“I think RAC was born to coach. I loved playing for RAC,” Johnson said, referring to Crennel by a nickname born from his intitials. “He is fair, he’ll communicate, he’ll dog-cuss you when he’s got to, and he’ll love you up if you did a good job. He just has a nice balance of when to press and when to pull back. He’s great like that. I wish RAC the very best. They have a great coach in him, for sure.”
