Must be it.

Could be the Pioli is doing the Armstrong interview?

LOL They know as much as we do.

[aturnis]

No, Mort said he was A PART of the interviews today. It was likely an interview Pioli set up before Sunday night. Why wouldn't he be there?

Well, I think Mort's full of shit.

Pioli might be 'doing interviews in Atl' today...

but he might be interviewing for a gopher job in the Falcons front office, since Andy Reid is coming to KC and Pioli is getting shit-canned.

Schefter says Chunt went to Philly to talk to Reid.

'Hey Scott, stay here and hang out with Dirk Koetter; I gotta go grab a couple cheese steaks...'

Hes just looking busy!

[DeezNutz]

None of those candidates in ATL were serious candidates, so it would make total sense to allow Pioli to conduct those interviews. Hell, we don't even know for sure if Clark was present.

Let Pioli waste all of the time that he wants and stay the **** out of the way of the adults who are doing real business.

Mort was on 810 last hour and said Pioli was in Atlanta with Clark YESTERDAY.

Something got lost in translation there with BossChief's post.

Yeah, sounds like it.

[KC kid]

Just further affirmation that Pioli is here to stay

[ChiefMojo]

Deez that is my take. Let Pioli go talk to Koetter and Armstrong. Who is to say that these interviews weren't already pre-set by Pioli before the sh*t hit the fan with Clark? It was immediately once Romeo was fired, these guys were being announced as interviews. It is like Pioli leaked to the media... of course they are Falcon guys he knows that could work under him as he couldn't get anyone else of worth outside of the Patriot tree.

Andy has connections there. Still think Cards are most likely. RT@ThirstyTortuga: @mortreport how do u feel about KC's chances to land Reid?

To those with the immediate question of what would Andy Reid in KC mean for Scott Pioli - it would mean a new GM
