Chiefs "Plan to retain Crennel" per Adam Schefter
 

A bit ago on NFL countdown, Adam Schefter reported that the Chiefs "plan to retain Romeo Crennel"

Is that an official report of Crennel as HC? Has there been an official report?

It was just cryptic enough to make me unsure if he was saying he will be HC, or just that they would like to keep him on the staff.

mods delete this crap

They just said he will be named head coach...on espn radio

I was in before you dumbass

McDaniels is officially a patriot again, too

Great move imo! I say that because the team and organization seem to be on the same page with RAC. Not only are they on th same page but looking over our head coaching options, RAC just makes to much sense.

Clements, please.

ban this piece of shit

Has he interviewed with ANYONE yet?

Look at the time dumbass

Now the question is, who will be on the offensive staff? Namely the OC.

This one posted at 11:29. The other at 11:30 indeed this one was first

Really he is as good as any. For the most part it won't matter who the HC is unless they have a top QB. That's the state of the NFL these days.

Here we go.

I like the hire for the simple fact that he said about Orton being the starter next year so that means he doesn't like Cassel.

Later, Cassel.

Happy trails!

Well, not sure how I feel about it. I think it's pretty obvious that he can plan a defense pretty well, and the players obviously love him, but that isn't always a good thing.

Welp, there it is.

Pioli will be fired in two years.

Yeah, and Matt Cassel was here before Ricky Stanzi.

Doesn't mean he's the better option.

Crennel first job fire everyone of the offensive coaches.

Crennel might also listen to his players more. I wonder if Tamba brought him aside and politely said, "Fix the QB or you're ****ed, matey."

This is how I feel. There wasn't anyone that I really felt like we needed to try and get. Just an uninspiring group of prospective coaches out there.

At least we get some continuity. Now go get a badass OC and cut Mark Castle

Thank Goodness.

Who will start the next *******Official Head Coaching Thread******* in 3 years?

Q

Sources in Kansas City say Chiefs will name Romeo Crennel Head Coach on Monday or Tuesday

So much news for a Saturday morning. I should go back to bed.

This is the right move. You need to retain some consistency. Blowing it all up and starting over every couple of years just gets you decades of mediocrity.

It's crucial, though, that Romeo hires some young promising assistants so that one can succeed him in a few years.

This.

What if next year the Chiefs go 10-6 or 11-5 (very possible), and the year after go 9-7 or something and Romeo retires after a couple of seasons?

You couldn't say he failed, and Pioli would most likely stay for the next coach.

I'm ok with this because none of the other options thrill me. If he succeeds bad ass. If he fails Pioli is gone. The key is Cassel not being the starting QB.

Good decision. Keep Orton, get everyone healthy, have a good draft, and we will be good to go for next year.

Who the **** is going to be the OC/DC?

I don't mind this move

Crennel + no mcd = no Cassel

Hopefully

Now I wonder what options we have for OC/DC

We're not going 10-6 next year.

Romeo Crennel is a dreadful head coach.

shows consistency.
hoping for the best.

Fire everyone let crennel pick his staff.

GoCheese is probably going to be right on this; the schedule doesn't preclude KC more than 7, maybe 8, wins this year IMHO.

so you're saying 12-4?
:evil:

Based off of what? He coached in Cleveland for god sakes....that's the place every HC goes to die.

Not this shit again.

If Cassel's ass is out the door, this team's going to get better. Much better. We'd definitely be the most talented team in the division.

I dont mind this, better than hiring Del Rio or any other name out there.

Now who do we get for OC and DC?

Spags for DC? Del Rio? Gawd I hope not.

If Hue gets booted in OAK, I wouldnt mind him as OC. He would have a huge vendetta against his former team. Of course, there has to be other candidates, but who?

Ditto

Thank you.....

As long as he drafts a QB I'd be enamored with this decision.

IMO there isn't anyone else out there that is a "must have" right now.

If the players are all for it, then most likely they'll play hard for him.

PLUS....hopefully this is the end of the Cassel era....or keep him as a backup, but that would be an expensive backup though.

MODS: Can we merge these threads?

No word on his status. It would be a very good hire for KC. Vendetta or not he is a solid OC~

can't wait 'til sept.

shit, can't wait for FA and the draft.

could be a fun off season.

Better win the SB in the next two years. After that the players won't play well for Crennel. Nice guys finish last.

Solid for sure, but can you see how pissed he would be if he got canned and then had the oppurtunity to stick up OAKs ass? I mean he wouldnt even be shy about it.

Romeo is a player's coach. The inmates run the asylum.

Ready for Club Romeo at St. Jo?

Really? we went 7-9 with a harder schedule than we're getting next year, without Charles and Berry, and Palko starting 3 games.

Yes we could go 10-6.

As long as we have a new OC and Cassel is not playing, I'm ok with this.

Your just mad athan was wrong again.

wat?

Mad not made LOL

BNew OC for sure. Muir is retiring apparently. And as the former DC who had his players on the field 75% of the time, I dont think Romeo is a huge fan of Cassels'...I hope anyways.

He won 10 in Cleveland with a Matt Cassel clone.

Yay mediocrity!

Trade up in the draft ****ers, get a QB

Isn't KCChiefsfan50/50 gonna come by and call everyone Romeosexuals?

wouldn't we all jizz in our pants?:drool:

Indeed.

Several have asked about Philbin as OC. It possible, but as lateral move, NFL rules dictate GB would have to give permission. Seems unlikely

Exactly what I was thinking.

****.

This is a move that will sell tickets but it won't get us a super bowl. Guarantee the chiefs play very good football next year. Maybe decen football the year after. But by year three they're going to get sloppy.

There's a reason Romeo is popular.

Did Romeo ever draft a decent QB while in Ckeveland?

Against the NFC West.

The crutch of The Patriot Way.

Couldn't they add the "Assistant Head Coach" title to make it a move up? Read that earlier this week.

Brady Quinn

Nope cant do that anymore.

saw a tweet from PFW that Carr is likely to get extended

When Marty and bellichick were in Cleveland you saw visible signs that the browns were better. When rac coached there, the team got worse and worse and worse. And it wasn't just talent. They played sloppy and uninspired.

And I think it's absolute bs tha there's nobody out there. I've said a gazillion times... YOU DON'T HAVE TO HIRE A PROVEN GURU. John harbaugh was largely a special teams coach.

RAC baby!ban jsp
