Update from @mortreport: Cards visit with Andy Reid is off, Chiefs have not scheduled other visits with candidates, hoping to wrap deal Fri.

Especially considering where this team has been and with the credibility that Andy Reid brings. Andy is one of the better QB coaches and we are finally in a position to get one after 30 years. And you can't get excited.

Dude that is like a beautiful woman asking you to **** her brains out and you just can't get up for it.

I don't think so. Only reason Deberg got banned was because he tried to pass it off as a Adam Schefter tweet knowing that most people here consider Schefter to be the ultimate source in football.

Seriously. Who could blame anyone for being down trodden at this point? Oh, you're a bigger masochist, congratulations!

Here's the latest info I received:

-They have to figure out how they are going about terminating Pioli. As many reported earlier today, Pioli has final say in all football operations written into his contract. Clark can't break that deal. They are trying to negotiate a buyout and let him go wherever he wants, but obviously Pioli wants all of the money. He did get a 2 year extension earlier around the time I got the info that the extension was happening.

-Tom Heckert is in demand and Andy may just elect to either wait for the Packers to be out (may be waiting a while) or he could entertain Ray Farmer in the role. There's some connection between Farmer and Reid that I can't link but they say they have a fondness for each other.

-Doug Pederson as QB coach, Castillo at OL, Bobby April as ST coach. Haven't heard a thing about RB or WR. He likely will bring Melvin the TE coach too. The only coach that has a chance to stick is Otis Smith as secondary coach, but that will be determined by DC. As I said earlier the Kiffin smoke was quickly put out, Ray Horton would be ideal, but they aren't going to wait around on him either to see if he gets another job. Dick Jauron is the new flavor of the hour as a guy linked to the DC job with Reid.

-Reid is going to completely overhaul the organization. He's bringing in his guys in every facet. Scouts, equipment managers, trainers, strength people. All will be Reid's guys.

-Shurmur or Childress will be O-coordinator. Varying opinions on who it would be. Me personally, I think Childress is it.

-Reid wants a 5 year deal. Chiefs, in standard fashion, offered 3. They'll get to 5 years around 38 mill when it's all said and done.

-Clark Hunt has done a masterful job taking back control of his franchise over that ****ing weasel Pioli.

Adam Teicher is the most worthless piece of shit. His radio interviews today were ****ing embarrassing.

Tyler Thigpen licks my taint.

Chris Mortensen @mortreport

I'm hearing that regular ChiefsPlanet poster J Diddy is a total chump. Developing...

[CaliforniaChief]

Remember that we aren't just filling a position here...we're completely changing the whole organization: how communication works, accountability, contracts, possibly new positions, etc. I hope we get something definitive tonight, but its a lot of minutiae. As long as they're in agreement on the principles of the deal, I'm good.

Adam Schefter @adamschefter

Confirming earlier reports by my colleague @mortreport, ChiefsPlanet.com regular J Diddy is indeed a total chump.

Ugh.

Clark, you signed the extension, you are worth a billion dollars, pay the ****er and move on.
