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.

What happened to Chris Jones in 2016 and 2017? Was he injured in the playoffs? My brain no longer chooses to remember certain events prior to Mahomes, and this may have gotten erased by mistake. [Reply]
Alex Smith never came close to taking over a playoff game like my man STONE COLD did in the SUPER BOWL like Jones did in literally the most clutch moments in the 4th quarter of 54.
Some Chiefs fans are addicted to suffering. You hate to see it. [Reply]

The quarterback would then throw it to some guy who moved into that vacated spot and I would be sad because everyone except Gunther knew what was going to happen.
Yeah, but Gunther was the DC for the second best defense (maybe the best defense) this franchise has ever had. Losing because a kicker couldn't make a kick wasn't his fault. If that kicker performed, he would probably be a Super Bowl winning DC too.
I can't stand Spags and his defense. I feel like in SB54 it was individual players that made plays at the end, and it had nothing to do with Spags.

Gunther rode the coattails of a dominant defensive mind and was EXPOSED when he tried to build from the Greg Robinson defense in 2004.
Spags put together a defense from the scraps of sleepy Bob Sutton and delivered with obscure formations and blitz that knocked Jimmy G. ON HIS ASS and shutout the Niners in the 4th quarter when the stakes were highest. [Reply]

Gunther Cunningham held a 17-0 lead, at home, to a division rival. All they had to do was cruise to the division title. And the home playoff game.
He personally hired Jon Baker because "he ripped his sleeves of in cold weather" during the tryout and Gunther thought that made the difference in hiring Baker over anybody else. He kicked the ****ing ball OOB 3 times in that game including the dagger in OT and cost the Chiefs the division and the playoffs. [Reply]

I'll never forget shitbag Jon Gruden sprinting onto the field like he'd won the fucking superbowl. [Reply]

It was the Gannon-Grbac referendum for me and at Age 7 I couldn't take it and I cried the entire night at my grandparents house.
Looking back it was my blackpill, as it was confirmation that the Chiefs picked wrong and all of the other kids in my class thought I was weird for not liking Grbac. [Reply]
