Jim Haslett still in the running to be DC in Carolina???

Per KC star Posted on Wed, Feb. 11, 2009 10:15 PM

Why not Jim Haslett? He can coach the 3-4 or 4-3. He’s fiery, like Haley. Allegedly, the Carolina Panthers have targeted Haslett as their defensive coordinator. Kansas City is a better job. Carolina head coach John Fox could get fired after next season. Fox is a former defensive coordinator who will oversee/work closely with the new coordinator. Haslett would have more autonomy (and money) in Kansas City.

Per Roto world today

. On defense, he calls former Rams DC Jim Haslett and fired Cardinals DC Clancy Pendergast options. Interestingly, Whitlock says he's heard that Haslett is also a candidate to land in Carolina, potentially as a secondary or linebackers coach.

I wonder how our new coaches feel about this:smilielol5: and then to think KC thinks there a better stop for DC then Carolina :rolleyes5:

I'm confused, here I was thinking we've hired everyone but Dline coach. Hmmm maybe it was just a mirage.

He's not a candidate for DC, maybe Defensive line or some other position.

Pretty much all thats left unless he ends up being a consultant. I was just commenting on the KC star part of the post.

Yea that was the funny part of it.

Haslett's background was DB coaching if I remember right. Pendergast was an LB coach. Doubt either of them would be in line for a look at DL coach.

(plus there's the whole hatred issue between Haslett and Fox)

Now that's some damned fine reporting.
