The fact that no one has been fired

[Dante84]

means that they are purposely trolling the league for the first pick, and everyone is in on it.

At the end of the season, Romeo will retire. Pioli brings in a new coach, buying himself 2 years with a rookie qb and the new staff, and Hunt lets fat Scott ride out the contract extension that he foolishly offered before the season began.

These are my concerns.

You're in full meltdown mode ... i understand.

I also think we can switch to a 4-3 pretty easily

Hali/Powe/Poe/Houston
Johnson/?????/Belcher

can Berry learn to cover? will a decent free safety allow Berry to focus on playing in-the-box? Covert Berry to a 4-3 MLB?

btw the Chiefs slid Tjax inside and played a Hali/poe/Tjax/Houston Dline against the Broncos with decent effect.


The sky isn't falling, this might be the most talented 1-10 team i've ever seen.

but hey ... continue to pull your hair out if it makes you feel better.

I just wish Clark would come out and acknowledge that there is a problem..and he is working on a solution...Just for him to say something would be nice.

Again, what does that accomplish?

If he comes out and says there's a problem, are you satisfied? Of course not, because the end goal isn't for Clark to feel sorry for us, the end goal is to FIRE PIOLI.

People just need to be patient.

not going to happen

anything he does will be behind the scenes until the move is actually made.

The only way that doesn't happen is if we win games and lose the 1st pick.


I just don't see any way that Geno Smith isn't the 1st pick for us.

I can see scenarios where something happens with the Senior Bowl or combine/workouts and the Chiefs end up taking Barkley or Wilson instead but I don't really see any way that, if we get the 1st pick, we don't get a QB.

i suppose it's possible that huge workouts could jump somebody up.

but i agree, we take a QB ... it's just about once one.

Wilson does has a lot of potential

Hali/Powe/Poe/Houston
Johnson/?????/BelcherBelcher is not talented enough to play the SAM in a 4-3 IMO. This spot would be likely occupied by Houston

can Berry learn to cover? will a decent free safety allow Berry to focus on playing in-the-box? Covert Berry to a 4-3 MLB? WTF??

btw the Chiefs slid Tjax inside and played a Hali/poe/Tjax/Houston Dline against the Broncos with decent effect.That is the same 2-3-6 sub package we have ran since Romeo got here. Not a base front

Dude. I sure as hell hope we don't ****ing switch to a 4-3. Do you remember how ORDINARY Hali was as a 4-3 end? How he used to just get crushed at the point of attack in the running game? What do you think would happen to Houston? You want those guys to put 20 pounds back on and see how quick they are then?
We FINALLY have a true NT. Just run a one gap, attacking 3-4, it's the best usage of the personnel on hand. The front seven would be fine in that sort of scheme, letting Dorsey walk. We need a safety and a corner.

And an ILB that can cover. Not a high priority, but it would allow us to be more flexible in subs.

i didn't say with should ... just that it is possible.

I think Hali is a much better player now than he was before.

[Titty Meat]

Clark just paid Romeo 3 mil a year not even a year ago and possibly extended Pioli. What's the purpose of firing those guys right now? Might as well get every penny out of what you paid for before you have to dump them in the off season.

What makes you think Breaston is gone? And whether Bowe gets a deal or is franchised again he will be here. We have to spend up to 99% of the cap next season IIRC.
