Chiefs This coaching staff - Page 2

**The Bad Guy** · 01-26-2013, 10:49 PM

There's 19 people (not including strength or conditioning coaches) on this staff.

That's an enormous staff.

I don't know what happened to Childress coming on, but I guess there's still room for him.

I can't criticize Clark for being cheap ever again. He's paying Romeo 7 million to sit at home and eat, he had to eat money with the staff contracts that were re-upped prior to last season, paid Pioli between 10-13 million to go away, still may end up paying Haley the 2 million he's owed.

On top of that. Reid is making between 35-40 million on his 5 year deal. I don't know what Dorsey got, but he has a 5 year deal as well. Dave Toub got close a million to be the ST coach.

We have 3 quality control coaches, a stat coordinator on staff, and an assistant special teams coach that's regarded as one of the 5 best ST coaches in the NFL.

I really didn't think Clark had it in him to do all of this and re-shape this franchise in just basically 4 weeks.

This staff went from being a ****ing laughable joke to being one of the deepest with tons of upcoming coaches.

Just remarkable. I really think there should be a collection taken to fly a banner at the home opener thanking for making the change. This guy was ****ing hammered with emails (I sent at least 1 every 2 days), banners flying, radio shows killing him and I think deserves the recognition at the opener. Hopefully SOC can pull something like that off.

Word on Albert talks? Bowe?

Don't know about Childress. I'm also not sure on how everything works under the new CBA but signing periods for a team's free agents used to start in late february along with designated tagging periods as well.

Never did think he was cheap, just thought he let Pioli be cheap. He tried it his Dad's way, of letting his GM do it all and control everything.

I like it that he has decided that method wasn't working and is having the HC report directly to him.

Agree on the banner for he beginning of the season thanking him and welcoming the new staff.

Absolutely. That would be one class move. I'll pitch in for it.

Have the specifics of the deal been announced (ie total contract worth). Also, between 35-40, would that make him the highest paid coach?

He's at least a season late for my taste. Probably should have canned snotty after the playoff loss, really, since it was apparent mattydusa was finished.

No, I'll give him the nod here -- it is a lot of $$ & well needed change, but I won't put up any cash reward until I see some wins and real QB's on the roster.

You need good coaching, but you need better players or even the best coaches won't win.

It's always right around the 1st of March.

I've never understood the belief by most that Clark was cheap.

He paid top dollar for the guy that was the most sought after GM candidate in the league when he hired Pioli.

He then got out of the ay and gave Pioli all the power to make every other decision relating tothis team.

Pioli was the cheap bastard.

A lot of people, (I'll admit) including me, thought that Pioli was the puppet for Clark's cheapness. Never been more happy to be proven wrong.

Red Brooklyn · 01-27-2013, 09:40 AM

I've got nothing but love for Clark. The way he handled Pioli and the off season cemented it for me. He's not flawless. But so far I'm been impressed by him more often than not.

According to Kevin Harlin when it comes to NFL money. The Hunts are closer to the bottom in over all worth. They don't have Kraft billions.

Molitoth · 01-27-2013, 10:20 AM

Why should SOC do any thanking when it didn't have anything to do with the regime change? /true fan

Teehee

What would it say? "Thank you Clark"?
