Report Says Jack Del Rio Will Interview With Chiefs
by Joel Thorman on Jan 5, 2012 9:23 PM CST
Email
PrintInteresting report coming out of KCTV5, the CBS affiliate here in KC. Michael Coleman reports that the Kansas City Chiefs will interview Jack Del Rio for the head coaching job sometime on Friday. Del Rio, of course, was fired by the Jacksonville Jaguars earlier this year. He was a linebacker for the Chiefs in the '80s.
I'd be shocked if this was the move they ultimately made. It just doesn't make very much sense right now. I think the question for Chiefs candidates is: Are you better than Romeo Crennel? And I don't think you can say that without a doubt about Del Rio.
He's not exactly an inspiring candidate but, then again, neither was John Fox and Denver's in the playoffs this year.
This is the second "big name" guy we've heard connected to the Chiefs via a local report. Bob Gretz reported on Wednesday that the Chiefs interviewed Jeff Fisher last week.
While Del Rio may not make a ton of sense as a head coach, he might at defensive coordinator. The Chiefs could be hiring one depending on how the Romeo Crennel situation works out. That's something to keep in mind.
We should also point out the curious source behind this report. KCTV5's Michael Coleman doesn't have a track record of breaking Chiefs news here in KC. I'm not saying it's false or anything (In fact, it sounds like a Chiefs-type of move).I'm just pointing out that it raised my eyebrows. It was unusual.

Only hire him if he promises to wear a suit on the sidelines.

Maybe in all of this jazz
…he is really interviewing for the DC job.
One of the ways I would look at this is this way. You have an expansion team opening it’s doors in LA with the Chiefs players.
Line up all of these coaches… who would you want to be the Coach?
Nothing wrong with interviewing Jack Del Rio as long as he isn’t the guy. I don’t see anything wrong with hearing his presentation on how to fix the Chiefs. The Chiefs need some new ideas, besides maybe Pioli is wanting some info on some of that left over staff in Jacksonville….

Todd Haley - Crennel just prove to the world that you're a f***ing Joke! Matt Cassel - Orton showed with 3 weeks of practice you can beat the world champions. #7 your legacy is...you don't have one, you're a backup all along. Should never have been a starter in the NFL.

TRUTH
First I agree with you this really doesn’t make sense to me and no he is not better then Crennel. DC? Ehhhhhhh maybe, but does he even run the same scheme as crennel? Also wasn’t his work ethic by his former staff in question?
Second, you’re right I was very surprised Michael Coleman broke this story before you. I looked on NFL.Com and ESPN. and I haven’t heard anything about this anywhere else. But ehh who knows? EITHER WAY DON’T HIRE HIM AS HC!!!
KCTV5's Michael Coleman...
is the sideline guy for their pre-season games, so they probably threw him a bone.
I thought about that
But this is not a good bone. The Chiefs should know that fans would not like a move like this. It’s not a good look, IMO.
I prefer niether of them actually :D
Do you smell what the Chiefs are cooking?
An a%#whooping and BBQ!!
I'd prefer icepicks in my ears to McHoodie

Haley didn’t "allow" 2.7 to go off on his tweeter insanity, but he did it anyway …

except I couldn’t get a job teaching history (how much coaching experience do you have? “well, I just graduated” oh, so you don’t have any coaching experience? “I just graduated” thanks for coming in, good luck) so I got cert in science … 15 years, love it

Shows they're bing thorough, covering their bases and all that
And makes it seem like the (seemingly inevitable) Crennel hire is more reasoned and careful rather than lowest common denominator. Good PR in that regard.
I like what they are doing
It would have been upsetting to me, if January 3, the Chiefs announced Romeo Crennel without looking around first. I think the Chiefs will make the second HC announcement.
They will let one team make a move and swoop in so they can get some assistants.

According to reports in The Kansas City Star, when one of the replacement candidates accused Del Rio of slashing the tires of his car, Taylor stepped in and tried to break up the argument.
Del Rio reportedly called Taylor “a dirty scab and a lowlife,” then slammed the then-45-year-old retired player into the ground. Violence ensued for three minutes before Hackett could break up the fight, and Taylor came away with a bloodied face, the reports said.

One thing I'll disagree with is
John Fox is a good coach and wasn’t considered a shaky hire. Everyone knew he was a lame duck on a team that had no qb and he had just run his course there and needed a fresh start. I always thought he was underrated.
I agree
I always thought he was a good coach and hoped/assumed he would get another shot at HC. Just sucks that it was in Denver.

As HC of Rams
53-32 record.
Playoffs in 4 of 5 full seasons.
Is a really good OC that can put points on the board.
I say he should be a coach of great interest.

Not just since, he was run off the Rams, too.
He was banned from the booth at the end. Tried to call the booth from his hospital room, and they banned him from that, too.

For no good reason
Rams fired him after he was fighting a heart infection. Rams have sucked ever since!
Lions fired him after he led Kitna to career years. They got better in points the second year….Firing Martz worked out for them…right?
Martz hit the road in San Fran after Singletary took over.
Martz walked away from the Bears.
He was an outstanding head coach and OC….can’t say much bad about him

Regardless of who we have at HC, whether it be Bill Cowher or Pee Wee Herman
The success of this team falls on Pioli and Hunt’s shoulders to stop being tight asses and pay money for an actual franchise QB. We can have all the best players at the other positions, but without a QB to lead the regime a Head Coach isn’t going to make much difference at this point. Solving the QB problem should be their next top priority.
????
They paid big money for a supposed “franchise” QB, his name is Cassell. Typically, franchise QBs aren’t bought, they’re drafted.
Regardless of if we draft or spend we need to make a move. If we have to give up a shit ton to move up in the draft then so be it.
of if we draft or spend we need to make a move. If we have to give up a shit ton to move up in the draft then so be it. Something needs to change.
I will take Pee Wee Herman over Del Rio. At least when we are 0-16 or 1-15, we will have a good reason behind it.

Yeah, but Romeo had better still have a hand in the defense.
He’s the best around at coaching a 3-4 two-gap defense, and our defense is currently built for that. It would be great if he could bring along a young jedi for a time before he retires.

It’ll be Gibbs or Thomas, neither are spring chickens, but I would be happy with either being promoted… For, at least they aren’t Wannstedt… ugh Buffalo?

I always thought Nolan was good running a defense
I’m not a Nolan expert, just going off what I’ve seen. I’m not sure what his 3-4 scheme is, maybe it is mote of a LaBeau or Wade Phillips type scheme with more blitzing than the Parcells type. But I would still be interested to know if he and Crennel could colaberate on a scheme. I’m still worried that Crennel being a head coach would take his focus off of what the defense has become, and in turn take a step back.

Yeah
tit for tat…
Look at Denver with Tebow/Orton.
Scott Pioli probably doesn’t care too much about his image, but it is a possibility. He is after all concerned with fan interest in the Chiefs, at least as far as their dollars are concerned…

I read in USA Today that Fisher meet with Clark and Scott in Dallas last week. After about a 30 minute meeting, Fisher got up and advised them he was not interested.
Here is a owner/son that has not won a playoff game in 20 years and an inexperience GM laying out what they think will make them a winner. It’s sad that we think the Chiefs would be a dream organization to work for but I don’t see other coaches flocking to knock the Chiefs door down.

is overrated. how many afc championships has he won? Zero. How many Super Bowls? Zero. Why is the media propping this guy up like he’s the second coming of Vince Lombardi??
perhaps this guy doesnt have a clue about what it takes to win a championship besides have several winning seasons

His team the next year was better than that one
they just couldn’t beat Baltimore (who eventually won) – if that team beat Balt they would have had a great shot at the SB title.

why would anyone CARE if he did?
I get the feeling Pioli is just trying to convince everyone he’s not just going to hand the job to Crennel
even though he is.

hi, Mo! 5 minutes!!!
no one is complaining on here, simply pointed out what may be true, that crennel is the guy and the chiefs are doing all the rooney rule requirements as such
no big deal….
but he does have to interview others, and by putting big names out there, its a good way to make it appear like a legit head coaching search

I have a serious question.
Does Jack Del Rio have a lazy eye? Or does he just have a very wide head whereby his eyes have never met one another?

i find it interesting that none of the players have leaked any info as to who might be the next hc coach
u would think romeo but u never know about pioli
will the chiefs ever draft a Qb in the first round, not since todd blackledge in 83. and the chiefs could of had marino. OH well atleast 65 toss power trap worked for KC, it should be wide open red. Hank stram still the man.
well with agents and contracts up u would think u would here so info on a new coach

hi, Mo! 5 minutes!!!
Orton had nothing to do with Cassel, other than that Cassel was on IR.
Standard emergency hire midseason, when your #1 goes down.
would of ≠ would've
No it's not
We didn’t sign another “big name” S or RB or TE. If Cassel was a slam dunk #1 next year like people think we would’ve kept rolling Palko or even Stanzi out there. He saw what we saw and how Orton was light years ahead of Cassel in this offense. Not sure where people base this off of
Why didn't he lock up Orton then?

as a haley supporter, I have to say this whole cassel love story with pioli gets old.
we get it, pioli brought cassel here as many would have at that time for a 2nd round pick if they needed a starting qb. it hasnt worked out, but by NO means has pioli stuck with him for too long, he just didnt get a good enough of a backup til orton was dumped by the dumb broncos who dont want a 3rd round comp pick.
cassel did have a solid year in 2010, he regressed this year
now its time to cut the cord

I really hope you are right
After this year’s debacle, I have a hard time giving Pioli the benefit of the doubt until he proves me wrong. Hopefully good news comes in the weeks and months to come.

No thanks
Him coming in means RAC going out. Del Rios name is also supposedly coming up in Raider DC discussions.

Now if this is RAC HC and Del Rio running his defense then sign me up.

I'm not sure it means much
I would rather keep RAC as DC, hire a OC, and have a HC who doesn’t try to take a part in everything, but mainly deal with the HC duties

Fisher isn't a 4-3 head coach.
Fisher is an offensive guy not defense.
"Give them nothing! But take from them everything!"
He's always been a defensive guy.
I think you might be getting him confused with Kevin Gilbride, who was with the Oilers at the same time as Fisher. Both have fairly good mustaches.

Jags ran both 4-3 and 3-4
Washingtons albino DC came from strictly 4-3 and is running a 3-4 so its not outside the realm of possibility. Whats great about Del Rio is, maybe he didnt fare so well in the wins/losses but he got more out of less then probably any coach in the league.
"Give them nothing! But take from them everything!"
This would be a bad move
I actually don’t think Del Rio is a horrible coach, but he certainly isn’t one I look at and think “this guy could get us to the Super Bowl”
We're the same team as last year, except incredibly better, and with new players.
I Guess...
for some of us things are going too damn slow! Leaving year 3 of the GREAT Pioli Era: No #1 WR under contract. Only ONE starting CB under contract! Coaching “Search!” Last summer he went sleep walking through free agency! It just seems that for a franchise lacking any depth, that we have A LOT of distractions right now! Sorry for the less then optimistic view point! I’m just tired of not winning playoff games. January 16, 1994 is a LONG time ago and the Houston Oilers aren’t around anymore!

I hope he's being offered the DC position
Romeo as HC del rio DC & anyone other than muir for OC. That’d be pretty decent

His MN teams (that he OC'd for) were 4-3.
And so were his first few teams in Baltimore…The Siragusa days I believe.

Otis Taylor
Taylor, a Chiefs receiving great and star of their Super Bowl IV victory over Minnesota in 1969, was a scout for the team at the time, and was bringing in potential replacement players for workouts.
According to reports in The Kansas City Star, when one of the replacement candidates accused Del Rio of slashing the tires of his car, Taylor stepped in and tried to break up the argument.
Del Rio reportedly called Taylor “a dirty scab and a lowlife,” then slammed the then-45-year-old retired player into the ground. Violence ensued for three minutes before Hackett could break up the fight, and Taylor came away with a bloodied face, the reports said.
