It's all all over the web, and through the multiple threads. The Cowboys worded his contract so that the only move they cannot block is a HC position. And no the NFL doesn't view the Asst. HC title as a true promotion. NFL puts weight on actual duties vs. title. That is why even though he is not the Cowboys "DC" by title his duties are the same as that title and therefore only a HC job would be a promotion.

When Spags had good defenses:
“It’s because of the talent!” When Spags had bad defenses with little talent: “It’s because of Spags!” |

Venables looks good with all that 5 star talent running around.
I just don’t think the coordinator makes a whole hell of a lot of difference. Defense is more about the Jimmy’s and the joes |

It's a risk, sure. But so was trading up to take Mahomes. Risks are only acceptable on one side of the ball but not the other? Since when? Do you have intimate knowledge of Andy Reid's thought processes on this matter? Moreover, why must you agree with the decision? You are literally making the true fan "don't draft a QB" argument. "Do you really think Carl Peterson would risk drafting a QB in the first round?" Ok, so he wouldn't because he wanted a team with a baseline of mediocrity. How was that decision in retrospect? How many titles did it get him? |

I agree. He was the most realistic, but that doesn't make it realistic overall. IMO spag and jack del rio should've been the most sought after for winning immediately. Kinda surprised no one has brought up del rio. I wouldn't have minded that. Familiar with the division too.

Teams trade up for QB’s every year, but you rarely see an offensive minded HC completely hand over one side of the ball to a guy that’s never been a DC and has no history with that HC. |

What I am curious about, is to see what bust veach tries to go after next. Cam worked out, ragland has been meh. But I'd imagine there is a player or two out there not working out with his current team that could fit in our new front 7. Especially if we get rid of ford via tag and trade.

Bob Sutton was good when he had talent.
Every defense around the league that’s good is stocked with talent. Sure, some guys can make the defense better than they are talent wise when they’re playing average QBs and offenses. To beat the elites you’ve gotta have elite talent and good coaching |

He didn't wreck a Ferrari in New York. Great. That means nothing for what he can do in Kansas City. We also know that he can't do anything with lesser talent which he will have here, and that his past successes were in a league that doesn't exist anymore. Why don't you explain to me what advantages Spagnuolo will bring to the Chiefs with the way he'll coordinate a defense in the modern league. If I'm the one, "bitching just to bitch," you should be able to offer a substantive counterargument as to his bonafides. Otherwise, you're homering just to homer. |

I think this has been the plan for a while. The draft last year makes a hell of a lot more sense if they’re playing the 43 under I think.
Hopefully Maybe |
