***Rumor*** Pioli gets fired if Chiefs Lose in Tampa.

[Scorp]

Title says it all. Heard on the Danny Parkins show this morning on 610 that Danny has an unnamed Source that he trusts. The source says Pioli has been told win at Tampa or his tenure is done in KC.

Can we really be this close to our goal?

Unless it was done earlier, like during training camp.

But then, we'd have heard something then.

I can't believe Pioli has not addressed the media.

Gutless turd.

I'm hoping the fact that he hasn't spoken publicly, coupled with the fact that Clark released that statement defending us, means he's on his way out.

I find that statement that they don't discuss contracts laughable. They had no problem telling us he was signed to a 5 year contract when they got him. Now if it is still in discussions, I get it. But if they already signed him to an extension....

Anybody even heard where Pioli has been recently? Clark prob told him to lay low until things settle down.

i guess i can kinda see it. If they are going to fire him, better to do it early and get a head start on looking for guys and setting guys in place to scout for the draft.

I just know what Pioli is doing now is not g3etting better, its getting worse. Despite better talent, we are somehow playing worse.

Its just time to draft a qb, if it dont work, ****ing draft another one, if that dont work, draft another one. Shit will hit eventually

There's no ****ing way. You don't extend a guy in year 4 of his 5 year deal AFTER the team starts 1-4.

Does Pioli attend the games? Like I'm sure he does, I've just never seen him ever

Yeah, he's there. Most games you'll see his pompous ass strutting aground the Chief's sideline before the game during warmups.

I just don't see CHunt firing this guy with a year and a half left on his contract. That's 7 or 8 million dollars he'd have to pay for nothing.

Without Pioli, he'd be paying $7 or $8 million for nothing.

With Pioli, he's paying $140 million for nothing.

[Ace Gunner]

ya, and with Pioli he could face a flurry of fan bullets and an empty stadium. The thing is, Pioli won't let up on his insistence Cassel play QB for the Chiefs.

Very rarely does an NFL GM fulfill a contract. He will either fire him or give him an extension.

$7M, to Clark, is insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
