Alphadawg7 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 The Broncs are going to end up eating a turd sandwich over this one. ESPN story From the article... "Edwards came to Kansas City from the Jets and made the playoffs in his first season, when the team was 9-7. But he was under fire after the team finished 4-12 in 2007. Team management gave him its support, but expected a run at the playoffs. Instead, the team went 2-14." What crack are they smoking? No one in their right mind expected playoffs this past year after trading away only defensive talent for draft picks and having nothing close to a starting caliber QB going into the season. Thigpen was a late season surprise. They were projected to be one of the worst teams on both sides of the ball...how on earth can someone justify management expecting a run at the playoffs? I read a similar article today to that stated Shannahan is not likely to wind up in KC over ego issues between him and Pioli. Pioli is said to be looking to make his mark on the franchise and isnt going to want to give up the personnel power Shannahan is expected to demand in negotiations...so not sure if something has changed that, but it doesnt seem either is going to be happy giving into the other in order to make that stick. So, I would be somewhat surprised if Shannahan ends up in KC or even coaching this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flbillsfan#1 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 WDAE reported this afternoon that Herm Edwards was fired in KC. Speculation that Shannahan gets the KC HC job. Also Brian Schottenheimer has agreed to remain as OC for the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the relatively poor job he did with the Denver personell I can't see him having a leg to stand on demanding any GM duties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree & if he wants to continue to coach in the AFC West (likely) he will take the KC job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly after spending the last month watching Pryce kick the absolute dogsnot out of everybody they put in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much all the guys who were in the conversation at the end of the season - Marinelli, Edwards, Crennell - have all been fired. Yet somehow Teflon Dick just keeps hangin' on...

todd Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Start the timer for the first moron to say we should hire Edwards. I say 1.2 hours. He yells a lot, so he's gotta be good, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Bill Bellicheat .... Mr Cartmanez: How do I reach these keeds? The reason that you think you can't get into college is because you haven't been taught... how to cheat properly! How do you think white people always get ahead? Because we cheat all the time- I mean because they cheat all the time. [holds up a picture] This is Bill Beelichick, coach of the New England Patriots He's won three Superbowls. How? He cheated. He even got caught cheeting, and nobody cared. Bill Beelichick proved that in America it's okay to cheat. As long as you cheat your way to the top. Student: Hey, I don't wanna be called a cheater! Mr Cartmanez: No no. If you cheat and fail, you're a cheater. If you cheat and succeed, you're savvyyy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
