You would think - especially if McCarthy's still the coach. I remember reading that the two were very tight.

KC has definitely been on the upswing since both Dorsey and Reid got there.  I think their only hope to get a notch better than they have been is for Mahommes to turn out to be a step above Alex Smith.  I think that's possible in a couple of years, but he's probably not better than Smith now. 

Andy will eff it all up in the playoffs. It's his gift. Worst coach I've ever seen manage a play clock. He coaches like the game clock is more of a subjective guideline than an official representation of time remaining. 

Well I can tell you that Denver fans are pretty excited about this move.  Never good when you're biggest rival applauds any of your moves.  I did the same to the Bears when they fired Lovie.  

Very odd move and definitely not planned by the Chiefs.  They let their #2 guy go to the Colts to be their GM which doesn't happen if they were planning to part ways with Dorsey.  These type of power moves rarely work out, so have to wonder what Reid is thinking.  

Jeremy Maclin raised a small stink that Dorsey left him a voicemail that he was being cut. There is no way Hunt let's Dorsey cut Macklin and then fires him a week later. Sounds like Hunt and probably Reid asked Dorsey to carry out the dirty work knowing he was gone and Dorsey didn't give two ****s about how Macklin was informed. 

There was a rumor floating around earlier this year Dorsey declined to talk about contract extensions that didn't have an out clause and the Chiefs were not inclined to acquiesce, but I don't know how accurate that was.

Dorsey has a verbal agreement from 1265 that he will be next in line when TT steps down after 2017.  Chiefs wanted him to commit to a multi-year deal with no out clause and Dorsey wouldn't do it.

I totally just made that up.

However, plausible in some other cases.  

I think "granny" Lou Holtz had a clause in his contract if Notre Dame came calling to him.   But I thought there was another college coach somewhere else that had an "out clause" too.

All we need now is for Reggie to get fired and Pete Carroll to throw Schneids out a window or something. They all come home, throw in McCloughan too. 

Sets up one heck of a cage match for the best GM job in sports. 

Just the way Ted planned it, by the way. 

Could be true. Ted ain't saying anything. 

HUNGRY5 - GMs that scout - what a concept.  At least they do it.  The way some GMs approach the draft, they probably went down to local magazine store and picked up a football magazine with a draft section in it and went from there.
