Sorry for the previous confusion, I know how much of an impact this is on all your lives.  |
Last year the Chiefs moved pretty slow in first getting Scott Pioli in place as GM, and than hiring a head coach. By the time Haley had been brought in, it was pretty slim pickings in terms of the guys who could be hired as assistants. I think that is why a guy like Pendergast whom he knew came along with him. Unfotunately these delays caused the Chiefs to go through another bad year where the whole team was under evaluation by fire.
But I think things should be better moving forward here. They do have a couple of experienced assistants to work with the players as well as the inexperienced head coach. They should all be on the same page and should be able to work at getting the team moving forward again. At least it appears that the owner is serious about trying to get a stonger organization in place.
