Just saw it on the ESPN ticker. It's official.
Oh well. I don't like the move but I can see why they did it.

I think it is the right move for the team that being said I do like Herm Edwards as a person and do feel bad for him but he won't be out of work long.

I've said it for years, Herm Edwards is a good football coach. Most people can't see past wins and losses but there is more to it than that. He is a great talent evaluator, he is a great motivator, his players play hard for him every down because they buy into his philosophy. We were more competitive this year than many people predicted. At the end of the day though, all most people care about is wins.
Like I said, I don't like this move but I can fully understand why it happened. Oh well. Now I can hope that Cowher is our next coach! Go longshots!

If Kansas City ends up with Todd Haley, i think they'll be greatly disappointed a year from now.

I agree with you on this one but eh. I hope Pioli has someone in mind that none of us have thought about yet, or seemed like too much of a longshot to consider.

Looks like LJ is getting shopped since he doesnt have that special bond with his african american coach anymore. Unless they hire one..
Haley is not soft spoken at all and I think he will put some fire into that team.

I'm thinking the next coach will be Haley or someone from Parcell's staff in Miami.

Shanahan is in talks to become KC's new coach per espin. Shanahan and Pioli, good offseason for KC if they can pull that off.

When it comes down to it, it IS ABOUT wins & losses.

That would be fricking hilarious.
Shanahan: Oakland> Denver> Kansas City
He'd just need to get to San Diego later to complete the cycle in the AFC West.
