Denny Thum has been with the organization for over 30 years, pre-Carl, and is one of the best cap guys out there. Clark isn't going to throw him to the curb over some guy that has been carried most of his career by someone else.

He's not coming here.

Get the **** over it.
One thing we've learned about the NFL through the years: the leaked rumors are never true and serve some ulterior purpose. So let's decipher the true meaning behind this rumor. Pioli obviously recognizes that demanding complete control is folly; the job is too big for one man. So he's saying that he wants complete control to ferret out all of the weak owners that will kowtow to his every whim. Those teams will be off his list. Then he will focus on the organizations that have wise owners. To me, this rumor is another strong indication that Pioli is coming to KC.
