Are the Cheifs the new version of old Patriots??

[Dpantherman]

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.

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...

That team has something solid to build around.I wont say the pats..But I could see them in the playoffs very soon.

[pantherfan81]

They've made some great hires. Give 'em two years they'll be great.

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.

Chiefs rule!

[Kettle]

lord knows the state could use a good season from one of their teams

[Darth Biscuit]

Yeah, Weis and Crennel will improve them for sure.

[enolagay38]

Go chefs!

[Dpantherman]

didn't know this would turn into a cheifs love fest. just making an observation

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?

[Snake]

Now if the can get that cam Guy to go with them..... Its SB baby!!!

[PrimeTyme]

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

[Mr. Scot]

That's great, but who are the Chefs?
