Chiefs Looks like Spagnuolo [favorite for] DC - Page 48

ShowtimeSBMVP · 04:34 PM

Former Giants’ DC and HC Steve Spagnuolo has emerged as the favorite to replace Bob Sutton as the Chiefs’ defensive coordinator, per sources.

Spagnuolo and Andy Reid worked together in Philadelphia, share the same agent and have a mutual respect for each other’s work.

The #Chiefs are hiring Steve Spagnuolo as their new defensive coordinator, sources say. The former #Giants DC and interim HC/#Rams HC began his NFL coaching career as an #Eagles assistant under Andy Reid. Now rejoins Big Red in KC.

Jones - Williams - Nnadi - Houston

Jones is a liability against the run when he is lined up inside. Jones wants to attack not occupy a gap. He can attack as a 4-3 DE, just play the run on the way to the QB. That fits his style.

Probably just Tag/Trade Dee Ford and use that money to help fix the backend of our defense. We already have too much money tied up in bullshit, we can't afford to make another mistake with Ford.

FWIW, here’s what a former Giant (albeit a kicker) Lawrence Tynes had to say about potentially hiring Spags:

Quote:

If Spags gets the job as DC for the @Chiefs they are better on D day 1 when he walks in the building. One of my favorite coaches. Players will love playing for him and he will love them back. Very relatable to the entire roster. #ChiefsKingdom

How in the hell would he know? He's not even playing defense.

Why not tag and trade Ford to the Jags for Ramsey?

I'm a little tired of player coaches. I'd like one who kicks a little butt to get these guys to do their jobs...we've already got one softy.

Isn't Ramsey a huge douchebag?

My point is that our top-4 players on the team aren't impact players or have injury problems.

Justin Houston $21,100,000
Sammy Watkins $19,200,000
Eric Berry $16,500,000
Eric Fisher $13,650,000

I'm just not sure we can take the same risk with Ford right now. I don't know that Dee Ford will ever fit in a 4-3 defense either.

Yeah alot of guys are tho. Throw Ramsey on Edelman mix up coverages I bet Hogan, Dorsett and Gronk dont beat you.

You have to ask her mom first before you talk to her. You know that.

At this point, I just want guys that can actually do their job on defense. If trading Ford can give us that then sign me up. I'm so tired of having guys that can't stay within 5 yards of their guy in coverage. Is our scheme that shitty? Do they have no talent at all?

Most of our guys can't even cover Antonio Gate's slow ass. WTF?!?

Bet Gronk still beats Berry like a drum though.

If the Chiefs are going "All In" next season then I think acquiring a player or players on their rookie contract (like the Rams did with Peters) makes a TON of sense. A high profile rental makes a ton of sense, and he would probably love playing with a team that can actually score points.

Sounds like MRSA Tynes is describing the ideal traits for a Golden Retriever and not a badass DC who will inject some much needed attitude into the Chiefs defense.
