The one who I would really like to have back is Todd Haley....as head coach. He has done a masterful job in KC in all facets of the Head Coaching job. And unlike Whisenhunt, he is humble enough to have an offensive coordinator
Living in KC I told everyone he'd be good but what they really have is an aces GM who landed TWO SB coordinators in one offseason.
Granted he lucked into them being available but still.
Haley is good but the Chiefs are as good as they are because they are amazingly coached and incidentally Haley's worst parts come from Whiz.
He nearly lost today going for it on two 4th downs instead of kicking the FG and dang near lost 13 to 10 in OT if a kick dosen't hit the uprights.
So as much as I love Haley he's not the reason KC is that good all of a sudden.
The moral of this story is that we need a GM, I've only said that for years, and while DG was here we defacto did have a decent one who could at least draft.
He's gone now and his players are dwindling off.
Don't be fooled by the occasional good draft choice, every team has those but it's the overall batting average along with the FA pickups that defines any team and as long as we suck at that minus DG or someone like him we'll always sink back into suck.
NO GM worth their salt alows the coach to pull the Matt fiasco and leave us with what we have, that just never happens to good teams or with good GM's, and if people don't see what the cause is, the problem is never going to be fixed.
Whiz can be a good coach too, but he needs a GM who will surround him with talent both coaching and on the field and stand up to him and back him down when it needs to be done and support him when he needs it too.
This organization has a history of letting the wrong person have all the power at the exact wrong time.
It starts and ends with the GM, give him the keys get a good one and let them work, then it flows down from there.
