from ProFootballTalk.com:

Adam Caplan of Scout.com reports that the Chiefs and Crennel have struck a deal that will make Crennel the team's new defensive coordinator.........The move gives the Chiefs the two coordinators -- Crennel and Charlie Weis -- who left the Patriots after winning their third Super Bowl in four years.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/01/13/report-chiefs-crennel-do-a-deal/

don't forget about Scott Pioli, who had a hand in building the same Patriots teams that both Crennel and Weis were on. And Matt Cassel could benefit. Jamal Charles is a beast in the making. we could be talking about the Chiefs in the playoffs within the next few years...

if they sign some good FA's and they're draft goes good, i wouldnt be surprised to see them in playoffs next season. matt cassell needs a couple of new o-lineman to protect him and a new weapon or 2 and they're passing game will be really good. plus jamall charles is like you said a beast in the making. they're main problem right now is corners and safety's. if they fix that, then they could very well be the team to beat in 2010.

Corners? They have two pretty good young corners in Flowers and Carr. I think they were two of their only consistent performers on defense this season.

Will they spy on people too?

exactly!

i have no respect for anyone on the coaching staff while the Pats cheated their way to the top

since they got caught, they have looked more and more average

what happened to all those brilliant half time adjustments from these so called great Pats coaches (including wies and crennel)... I guess its hard to make stellar adjustments when you cant cheat to do it

the cheifs suck and will remain the same

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
