How much success did Vermeil have when he tried to turn KC into West St. Louis?
How much success did Parcells have when he turned Dallas or the Jets into the Giants redux?
How much success did Johnson have when he hired his old coaches and buddies from Dallas in Miami?
The answer is little to none.
Why? Again, because you can't re-invent the wheel.
I used this analogy last week, and I'll use it again. Pioli thinks that he can reform the Beatles in Arrowhead, but he's missing out on John and Paul.
People think that we're going to be the Patriots just because we hired some old Pats coaches, brought in some washouts, and their VP of Pro Personnel.
It doesn't work that way.

The new coaches don't guarantee anything, but they also don't preclude the Chiefs from success. It is moronic to argue that merely because they were former Pats, the Chiefs won't be successful.
Anyone would consider these two among the best and most accomplished coordinators available.
Oh, and as far as the switch to the 3-4.... other than Dorsey, who isn't expendable? Seriously. Who were you worried about losing? If Allen were still here and they went to a 3-4, I would have been upset. But, Dorsey is the only guy that I was worried about, and he actually played pretty well.
