The coach? who knows. I know one thing for sure though. In 1988 Lamar realized that the franchise had stagnated. The fan base was pathetic. There was not much interest around the midwest for the chiefs. So, what do you do? You make a big splash in the GM and coaching department. You bring in a proven winner and team builder. Most importantly, you bring in someone that the fans identify as credible. If the chiefs are not showing quite a bit of improvement at the tail end of the season, I have no doubt Clarke Hunt will follow dads plan from 20 years ago. So, who fits the bill? Well, Holmgren fits that bill. Cower fits that bill. I am not sure there are many others that do, right or wrong. So, my prediction would be one of those guys.

It took Haynesworth and Henderson of the Titans a couple of years to get truly dominant. Be patient! DT is a whole different bird to conquer. He had his way in college playing among boys. Now he is getting used to the speed of the game and guys just as strong and smarter on how to combat him. It will take time for him to learn and adjust and get smarter.

What's so bad about Cowher ?
He started a rebuild with the Steelers when they didn't have a qbotf ? He got all the puzzle pieces together and then when Big Ben came available in the draft they picked him up and had an instant winner. The situation is similar here in KC, we need to get some more pieces of the puzzle and insert a real QB. Cowher has shown success in that exact scenario. I can't endorse Marty for coach or GM, Kansas City has a history of screwing up even when they had talented players because of conservative ball playing, good chance Marty would continue that trend. |

People keep mentioning Holmgren but that isn't happening. He is retiring from the Seahawks, not being let go or running out his contract. He is done for now.

when you haven't been to a Super Bowl in so long that a coach who took 15 years to get there is seen as a steal |

We already have Herm and Chan. Essentially we already have Cowher.

True, but ive read a few stories on him and his situation. They mainly mentioned hes done with the Seahawks and probably coaching, but he could be lured in a GM role if the price and situation was right. Its something hes always craved and i think he used to have a GM role for awhile in Seattle before he gave it up. Probably just a pipe dream having him in KC though....

Why Pete Carrol of course. The college game is too easy. He's probably getting bored by now. Money and ego boys, money and ego.

Thats what I don't get. Do you really think they'd let Cowher stick around for 10 years until he gets it right again? He'd be run out in year 7.

Look no further than people that Carl Peterson already knows personally. He would never consider looking further than the shallow end of the talent pool.

I don't know if this guy has been mentioned yet (haven't read the entire thread), but a younger guy might be the ticket ... Jim Schwartz?
