Is he going to stand on the sidelines with his thumb up his ass like Bob did?

Maybe now we'll shit can this stupid 3-4 and be aggressive.

If Andy wants an experienced DC, I'd rather have John Fox or Rex Ryan than Spags.

I am still holding out hope for a Kris Richard miracle... ironically he would be the exact type of innovative/young and upcoming coach that Andy usually chooses for his OC/QB coach hires.

He should apply that same strategy towards hiring a new DC.

This is my silver lining. I think a switch to the 4-3 is going to help out KPass and Speaks immensely. Speaks actually looked halfways decent rushing with his hand in the dirt.

Y'all just wait. It's gonna be fine. His '16 defense was very good, the '17 had crucial injuries and the offense cratered too. New Orleans he was ****ed with bounty-gate. St. Louis was an organizational mess at the time.

And I'm a fan of moving away from a 3-4 where you have 260 lb. linebackers trying to cover running backs.

It's good. It'll be fine, and I'll bet they're middle of the pack next year, which should be plenty good enough.

Good enough for me.

They just about wore leather helmets back then! You should take a look at his recent resume with today’s offenses. No thanks.

Several of us have said for awhile it was time to move on from that D.

Did you guys really think he was going to go out of his comfort zone to hire someone?

It's Andy Reid we're talking about here.

That's the only thing I like about this hire.

Wilks was my guy for sure. Sucks the Colts couldn’t end Sutton one week earlier but getting the monkey off our back was probably more important.

Beating the Colts was the biggest and best moment of the season and it will carry over to next year

Also 1-1 in the playoffs is very important to Mahomes from an experience stand point

Agreed. I think several of our guys will benefit from that alone.

I have a thought ...

Maybe a blitz-heavy, sizzle-type defense is good. If it works, we get off the field. If it fails, the enemy scores and we get off the field. Either way, we get off the field.

We all know that the secret to success for the Chiefs has to do with the number of possessions our offense gets during a game. More possessions means more points. More points means more pressure on the enemy which means more dropbacks and more blitzes. It's like a snake eating its own tail.

Our offense is the business end of the snake.

I don't think Ryan and Andy would be a good mix...Reid is subdued and never says shit while Rex talks shit to the media.

So with the current players under contract, they'll need another LBer to play there in the middle and a pass rusher or two.

KDB 01-23-2019 10:36 AM

Yeah. Not sure this is an upgrade.

Andy, oh Andy.. Sigh.

Yeah the new short passes games have torn him a Spagnuholo.
