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.

While I don't disagree... it creates a year of issues as the whole team needs to learn a new scheme.
OC Nagy going, isn't a problem.
My guess is if Spags is HC somewhere... Dave Merritt or Joe Cullen or BOTH go with him.
So I think it's all contingent on which domino falls first. If it's a rebuild and all the coaches scatter.
Kelce retires. If there is more continuity... he probably stays another year or so. [Reply]

Nagy leaves
Spags leaves (nooooo)
Mike Borgonzi leaves for GM roles somewhere... (he's Veach right hand man...)
What they pay Mahomes $100m next year to suck... as we rebuild?
Maybe we trade the expensive future pieces like McDuffie?
Either way, this could be the end of this wing of the dynasty...
What the hell is this man?
It's a young team still overall. There's zero reason to tear it down when Andy and Mahomes are what drive everything. And let's be real, it's Patrick's team. Andy wasn't winning Super Bowls until he arrived. So as long as he's here, we ALWAYS have a chance. [Reply]

I don't think that's the issue. I think we have a 2 year rebuild and then go hard after the next wing of the dynasty. Like Brady did.
There will be a lull, especially if many coaches bail.
Completing a 3peat is a good time for them to go off on their own... in their minds, I would assume. [Reply]

Yes, true... but all of these guys are about to get paid. So, IMO it all depends on what the coaches do, who bails, who moves on... [Reply]

Wasn't our rebuild supposed to be 2 years ago and we've won the super bowl since lol [Reply]
Obviously I want this to go on forever, but I'm also logical about it... trying to see what MIGHT happen if Spags, and the defensive coaches leave and Borgonzi leaves.
Borgonzi is a guy most don't talk about... but he manages all the NCAA scouting and whatnot. He is Veach's right hand homie.
I'm just gonna enjoy these last games of this season and hope we put feet on everyone's necks.
Let the cards fall as they may afterwards. I HOPE Spags stays. He's amazing. Love that guy. [Reply]

Vrabel, Glenn and Saleh all seem higher on peoples list.
He's also really old and the trend now is to not hire older coaches. Just seems everything is working against him other than he's on the staff of the team that keeps winning. [Reply]

I don't know who is and isn't getting paid quite frankly. I think they've molded into the old Patriots model where they are going to draw some hard lines in the sand and if you wanna prioritize money, you can go be the next Tyreek Hill. Be our guest.
I wouldn't let a blue chip elite like McDuffie go anywhere though. There's no reason he won't accept a perfectly reasonable contract and really, he probably deserves to be the highest paid CB. [Reply]

If they draw the line in the sand this could be a very difficult offseason to be honest. [Reply]
