The #Chiefs are hiring Steve Spagnuolo as their new defensive coordinator, sources say. The former #Giants DC and interim HC/#Rams HC began his NFL coaching career as an #Eagles assistant under Andy Reid. Now rejoins Big Red in KC.

They have been. Check the game films.
Opposing offenses have been really good at keeping track of him and doubling him when he lines up inside, and stunts work better when the interior DTs actually get some penetration at the snap. When they get pushed back most of the time, Clark's getting either caught up in the block, or has to go backwards/upfield to get around the block.
However, they don't seem to be doing those things during the first drive or two. [Reply]
Carlos Hyde said neither Veach nor Reid told him he was traded. Just a random number called him and said “We just traded you to the Texans.” https://t.co/RFJbTvz2if
I know they have been moving Frank Clark around, I'd just like to see it more often than not. I would have also liked to see more of Ragland when teams decide they want to run it down our throats all game long. [Reply]

Right we should be happy with a number in the teens in terms of improvement. The offense will carry us as far as we're going to go. [Reply]
