Chiefs This coaching staff

**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.

Is Emmitt Thomas still on staff after hiring Al Harris?

htismaqe · 01-26-2013, 10:52 PM

I believe we had 22 on staff during the Vermeil years.

Agree, Frank. If this staff can't do something huge, something huge will never happen in KC.

mcaj22 · 01-26-2013, 10:59 PM

i like the mix of a bunch of former players that are young coaches (Bienemy, Harris, Pederson, Nagy, etc) and a bunch of evaluators/analytical guys mixed in with vets like Andy Reid, Childress, etc. and then the consistency of Emmitt Thomas and Gary Gibbs, pretty much the only two coaches worth a shit from the prior staff, which was obvious by the fans and the new FO lol.

Why hasn't Childress been announced as part of the staff? Is that a sure thing?

Word on Albert talks? Bowe?

these guys will run a real practice not a Port o Potty Mo Carthon special or a Brian Daboll fisherman hat look at Jon Baldwin jump out of the gym off this trampoline and catch this ball one handed in shorts from a uncontested unpressured Castle lob.

Chiefshrink · 01-26-2013, 11:02 PM

Clark's a billionaire and few million is like pocket change for this guy and besides he knows the business side of it because if does a HUGE thing like Phobes said and goes well he will literally make a helluva a lot more than what it cost him to buyout the previous staff.

Agree with that.

As for Vermeil's staff of 22, the most on a Vermeil coaching staff I think was 17.

Reid loves to be in pads at all times always hitting. Wants a physical team

mcaj22 · 01-26-2013, 11:03 PM

how big is that soccer league Clark runs? is the MLS he's a part of a bigger money generated than the Chiefs?

no right? Just wondering how Clark pools his money for being involved in multisports and if there is any carry over.

Ill preface saying I dont watch soccer, so hopefully someone can educate me on that part.

I don't know the answer to any of those.

Childress did meet with Reid here, and I was told that he was going to be part of the staff.

But I haven't heard anything on it lately.

No idea about the talks with those players.
