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.

No one, apparently. According to Google (so take it for what that's worth) coordinators aren't even considered. I think they should make an exception. We need to start writing our congressmen. [Reply]
Actually, he could go in as a contributor. It's mostly owners and GM's. But a coordinator would also qualify. I don't know if he would get selected, but he would qualify under that category. [Reply]
Spags might deserve the Threepeat the most. Chiefs defense has been slowly built up from a joke to be the deciding force in lots of these games. Imagine last Superbowl if our defense was like 2018!

Dick LeBeau is in the HoF and was a solid CB for a long while in Detroit, but I don't think he makes the Hall solely off his time as a DB.
He's in because of his time as the DC in Pittsburgh. [Reply]

I gotta think if Buddy Ryan hasn't made it in, which is B.S., Spags probably won't either. [Reply]
