Default Would Jerry hire a "consultant" like Pioli

If you look at the team he assembled in KC he did a good job. His biggest flaw was being to loyal to his New England cronies. Crennel Weiss and Cassell.

Jerry already has plenty of people that have his ear to fill the consultant role. Pioli isn't one of them. Someone from his inner circle would have to bring in Pioli for that to happen.

Going all in on Cassell is what killed Pioli.

I honestly believe it has zero chance of happening because a guy like Pioli would never work under the Jerry Jones dysfunction.

Not in a million years.

Piolo is a dysfunction. KC has been terrible under him and they have been troubled in every sense.

He did not do a good job.

He chose Cassell and hired Todd Haley(who was notoriously hard to work with).

They won 23 games in 4 seasons, i.e. averaging less then 6 per year... YIKES!!

And this is a team that let Brandon Carr walk. (and saw the overall defensive scoring rank fall from 12th to 25th)

That's usually what makes or breaks coaches and GMs.

That's why I'm so down on our coaching and management because I think our QB is pretty good.

Well, somebody got Romo to come here.

And no, it wasn't Sean Payton. He didn't even know who he was until Romo came to camp.

Piolli used to be the eye candy.

Any team can find good players. Not every team can put those players in the best position to win.

that is totally and completely untrue.
tony romo was the the nfl combine with every major cowboys official in town for attendance.

Romo attended the 2003 NFL Combine, but, despite intriguing some scouts, went undrafted by any NFL team during the 2003 NFL Draft. Throughout the draft, Romo was assured by Sean Payton of the Cowboys' interest (Romo was also intensely pursued by former Denver Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan), and shortly afterwards was signed as an undrafted rookie free agent by the Cowboys.

payton told bp he didn't need to make a large bid because romo really wanted to come to dallas knowing there was a spot to win at qb.

Default Pioli.. huh..

Except for center Casey Wiegmann and guard Ryan Lilja, who were signed in 2010 and helped the Chiefs go 10-6 that season; and offensive tackle Eric Winston, who helped the Chiefs rank fifth in the NFL in rushing this season, Pioli had little but embarrassment to show for his dealings in free agency.

Just as Pioli traded Gonzalez as way to divest the team of players from the Peterson era, he ran off five-time Pro Bowl guard and team leader Brian Waters after the 2010 season. Waters signed with New England as a free agent and helped the Patriots to the Super Bowl in 2011.

Pioli also failed to retain cornerback Brandon Carr, who signed a five-year, $50 million contract with Dallas during the off-season and had a brilliant season with the Cowboys. Meanwhile, Stanford Routt, whom Pioli signed to a three-year, $31.5 million contract last spring, was released at mid-season. And the major free-agent signing of 2011, wide receiver Steve Breaston -- who signed for five years at $22.5 million -- has been healthy but inactive for several games, even though the Chiefs were thin at the position.

The four draft classes under Pioli’s watch failed to produce consistent playmakers. It took four years for the Chiefs to realize defensive end Tyson Jackson, the third overall pick in 2009, could be a three- down player, and he’ll likely be a free agent in 2013.

While a two-time Pro Bowl pick, Eric Berry has proven that taking a safety with the fifth overall pick in 2010 was a reach. And the biggest bust of all was wide receiver Jon Baldwin, taken in the first round in 2011 despite all kinds of red flags. Baldwin has caught two touchdown passes in two years.

Read that in todays paper. The whole article paints Pioli's stay in KC as a trainwreck. The locals are happy he is gone.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

From what I've read about Pioli, he's an ahole and a jerk.
