I can't believe I'm saying this, but right now Bob Sutton and his staff is coaching one hell of a defense. I'm not sure if this will keep up, but it's really showing. Adjusting to allow only 6 points in the 2nd half of SD, adjusting after 2 bad drives in Houston and then a dominant defensive performance in last week. I pray to god this keeps up bc the pessimist in me is thinking it's a mirage. Either way, if the offense starts scoring points in addition to the continued ascension of the defense, we are a playoff team even without Houston and a SB contender with him. But hey, that's just wishful thinking. I'm hoping Andy corrects the issues and gets this offense rolling bc there really is some very good talent there.

This thread is pure aids. DJ spelled it out crystal clear before. Not many teams could list this many things as needing fixing before their head coach:
- QB - OL - Receivers - DL - LBs - probably secondary, unless every young guy develops well - defensive coordinator The only things I'd consider more stable and beneficial to the Chiefs in general are Clark Hunt, who's proven for years now that he's willing to do anything and everything to win, and the running backs, who are just generally beasts and have been for years no matter who's back there. Apart from that, I'd look at upgrading literally anything else before Reid. |

Side discussion that's less stupid than "does Andy Reid suck"....
This comes from McDaniels idiot desire to bring in a Belichick creation - Matt Cassel. So let's say McDaniels goes somewhere; you gotta figure that Garoppolo is his target, yes? So Garoppolo is a FA after next season. I wouldn't think Brady's looking to retire next year but at the same time, I think BB would be pretty happy to have Garoppolo as the next in line. Can they make that work? Garoppolo, if he were to hit FA, would get a pretty damn nice payday, I would think. He's not going to pass on that just so he can take the keys if/when Brady decides to hang them up. Would NE be willing to pay a backup $12 million/season? Hell, would they franchise him? I mean even if NE is willing to pay him starter's money, you would think he'd rather go somewhere where he could actually start, meaning that they'd need to tag him to keep him. Will Kraft just offer to pay Brady a $30 million retirement 'bonus' if he'll cut his salary down to $1 million/season for the next 3 seasons and then spend the 'found' money on hanging the tag on Garopollo. [/hootie] It's going to be an interesting thing to watch. I think the Pats would love to have Garopollo there long-term but the timing may not work out worth a damn for them. And if it turns out that Brady wants to play 3 more years after this one, shouldn't they look to move Garopollo for a pick they could use on the next replacement for Brady? And then again, it's possible Garopollo ain't shit and we're getting way ahead of ourselves...

An old Raiders troll smacked on the nose by a n00b. Priceless.

Considering the utter dearth of starting NFL QB's, Belichick will be able to get at least a #1 and #4 for Garopollo this offseason. The Jets, Cleveland, Washington, Chicago, San Fran and Arizona will all likely be looking for a starter in 2017. |

So I wouldn't imagine that anyone inside the top 10 is going to be eager to give up a 1st. Now the Cardinals might. Maybe the Jets. If you're a team drafting in the teens/20s and think he can hit the ground running and you won't be getting the QB you want with that pick anyway, you might make the move. And then again some teams just aren't actively trying to compete, regardless of what they say. He might still get that #1 and I expect that's ultimately the route they'll go. But the guy just won with Jacoby Brissett at QB....maybe Garopollo is just another BB creation.

Both mediocre coaches. You won't find me calling Jackie great. He does know when to run the 4 min offense vs 2 min offense though.

Arizona makes the most sense, as the Cardinals won't likely be in a position to draft a highly rated QB and Arians is a "Plug & Play" kind of coach. Hell, they'd probably be better this year with Garapollo, as Palmer looks done. Wouldn't it be something if Garapollo was traded to Arizona before this season's trade deadline? |

Jack hasn't had a winning season in like a decade that's just a tad shorter than the Raiders 14 year playoff drought.

I mean, the guy can't play forever and you've developed Garopollo for the long haul. |
