Chiefs hired former Dolphins assistant Brian Daboll as their offensive coordinator."

Over Al Saunders? Really? Not a fan. At all.

I like it

Can we get to free agency. I’ve got multiple bets going for next year with a Texans fan

by RamX21 on Feb 3, 2012 11:34 PM CST via mobile reply actions

Haley/muir are better than Daboll. Hopefully ur money is on the Texans

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:15 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

F that

RAC City bitch. Crennel is gonna get us to the SB.

by RamX21 on Feb 4, 2012 12:19 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

That and 3 SB tickets will get you, me and Romeo there

the chiefs break news at midnight

kind of like when the colts left baltimore in the middle of the night.

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.

by niageriannit1 on Feb 3, 2012 11:46 PM CST reply actions

Yeah i would much rather have al.

Oh well he’s gotta be better than muir.

by chiefFANatic on Feb 3, 2012 11:46 PM CST via mobile reply actions

Gotta say, not a big fan of this move at all.

We’ll see I suppose. Just kind of a giant let down.

BS move... Pioli keeping in the circle of trust

Guy was passed over by McDaniels for a promotion in NE so left bitter an his stints since have sucked. This is essentially the same Odense as last year. QB competition? They’ll probably bring in Kerry Collins. Pioli had a chance to take a chance and hire a real OC (Saunders) but instead hired someone he could control. Dear Hunt family, listen to you audience, yes, the same one you are trying to entice to the home games

Decided against proof reading was in a tizzy

Now that I posted it, noticed it wasn’t grammar I Cali correct. Hopefully the emotion shone thru

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:13 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

Pioli didn't hire him

he doesn’t pick the coaching staff, Crennel does

Predictions:
I'm going to stop predicting positive things

You really believe that? Buy the War gamaes book.

Romeo is happy to be both DC and HC but Pioli is calling the shots. Turns out RAC is in it for one last payday.. Like a bad movie script

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:19 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

So why was RAC conducting the interviews?

Probably had Pioli talking to him in his earpiece.

It's called song and dance for Roger

Daboll has been a total failure as OC. He’s just a puppet as expected.

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:49 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

Roger who?

And what do you mean by puppet?

It will be hard for him to be a puppet in KC

He really won’t have a boss on offense and Romeo will stay out of his way.

We'll see.

I tend to agree though. I wanted something better with this hire. This doesn’t bring any enthusiasm at all to me. I think pioli and co. missed on a good opportunity here.

by bossmanham on Feb 4, 2012 12:18 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

Yes, Daboll was the obvious choice with the coaching ties

He hasn’t done well as an OC at all. He’s just someone both Romeo and Pioli know from their NE days. Definitly not a hire based on Resume….

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:23 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

Yeah...

I hope I’m wrong, but I just don’t see this as helping the offense. Oh well. Ride our d.

I’m willing to give the guy a chance, but after being built up with news about Saunders, I’ve come crashing back to earth.

Pioli better hit with free agency. I don’t know how much more I can take.

by bossmanham on Feb 4, 2012 12:28 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

What a joke... Daboll as OC has been terrible

But he keeps his shoe phone on line for downloads

by Chiefs_KC on Feb 4, 2012 12:27 AM CST via mobile reply actions

Well at least they didn't get my hopes up

So another average season without any playoff wins is to be expected now

For constantly playing Palko, Haley needs to be fired

by ArrowheadHunter on Feb 4, 2012 12:29 AM CST reply actions

Yep, welcome to plainsville

It's not really a welcome

so much as a you’re flight out of Plainsville has been canceled indefinitely.

Well some people predicted an uninspiring hire

and this fills the bill.

Now…

Onto:
WR Coach
OL and OL Asst (Will Shields…yes please)

And then there is the Jim Zorn issues, coupled with any more assistants that might not fit with Brian Daboll.

To steal a Tarkus line…

Maybe now we will throw Daboll.

Not sure I like this hire

His offense did better last year but he hasn’t been good for the most part. Then again he hasn’t had much to work with.

Isn’t he a west coast offense guy though? For some reason i thought that was what they ran in Cleveland when he was there.

by Fozzyboyd on Feb 4, 2012 1:10 AM CST reply actions

That might not be a bad thing.

Isn’t he a west coast offense guy though?

From what I understand, he’s very flexible, adjusting to his personnel, though.

I like the hire

He made Matt Moore look like a legit QB last season, and he brought out the tiger in Reggie Bush. We could stand to do a lot of the same with Cassel and McCluster/Charles. The only downfall is this hurts us in the PeyPey derby. Saunders ran the same offense as IND does, Daboll does not

There are no stupid questions just stupid people

by IPWT2009 on Feb 4, 2012 1:43 AM CST reply actions

Daboll was also in Miami when they were on their 9 game losing streak last season, funny how you forgot that.

Terrible hire

by KC_Chiefs on Feb 4, 2012 2:08 AM CST up reply actions

Didn't his offensive scheme beat us this season?

by DizzyKC on Feb 4, 2012 2:19 AM CST via mobile up reply actions

We also got beat by some really mediocre teams this season like the Bills, Lions, Broncos, and overrated Jets

Does that mean we look at the coordinators of those teams too? That its okay to look at them since they beat us?

by KC_Chiefs on Feb 4, 2012 11:38 AM CST up reply actions

Matt Moore is very underated, just dealt a bad hand

goes 6-2 with Carolina playing great. Carolina goes on to select Jimmy Clausen and drops Moore to number 2. Goes to Miami. When Henne’s continued horrid play finally comes to an end and Moore get promoted and plays great and really sparks the team. Miami will no doubt go on to pick up Orton or draft a QB to replace him. He’s been given his opportunity to prove his worth and has played great yet gets demoted.
