Sure, he coached them, but I seemed to remember a 2-14 Chiefs team that had a new coach too.
But that Chiefs team played in the AFC with an soft schedule. The Cards played in the NFC West. They're much more impressive. They'd have rolled over KC.
We will soon find out. I don't deny that the coaching job is good, I just think that the Chiefs had the biggest improvement as a result of coaching.
Yes, the Cards won straight up in Seattle, but was that about coaching? Their DLine made the plays they had to and on a prayer Floyd made what I consider to be one of the most impressive catches of the season. Then just when the Hawks crack the armor of the AZ defense, a ball bounces off the ground and becomes an INT. Coaching? I suppose calling that pass play after all those picks was coaching.
I don't see that series of events unfolding again. How many times do the Hawks get 5 picks and lose? That single win made them respectable, but if I was betting on that game I would bet the Hawks win 10 out of 10 times.
