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.

lol, okay.
We'll need playoff Pat because our offense sucks. Doesn't have a thing to do with our defense. Never mind that this defense is worlds beyond the one Spags inherited in 2019. [Reply]

But at some point in January, QB’s have to rely on their arm to deliver a game winning drive freezing January.
We saw the outcome of that many times, and Lamar will likely have to prove he can deliver in a way that Alex never did.
Yeah.
The Lamar apologists think Greg Roman is Satan, but that guy didn’t tell Lamar to shit his pants versus the Titans. The Ravens lost that game because of Lamar’s arm [Reply]
I like Lamar, seems dumb but a good dude that works hard and has got every drop from his talent. Also, this year...think he's thrown pretty damn well. At least from what I've seen.
But yeah, we'll see in the playoffs when it's 3rd and long. [Reply]
Yeah but he's gotten better since then. They also have more talent surrounding him than those years. So I wouldn't read too much into those numbers.
He could have a bad game of course, any QB can. But if you think he's going to suck in this year's playoffs due to the his past struggles - that's a foolish take in my opinion. [Reply]
I remember when Spags was hired, he brought in House to coach linebackers and everyone was excited about it. He developed Bolton and Gay before leaving to LSU. Now that he's Brian Kelly's scapegoat, I wonder if Spags brings him back? [Reply]
