Good? Bad? Irrelevant?




Matt House will begin his first season as Linebackers Coach for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019. Before joining the Chiefs staff, House served on the University of Kentucky staff for three seasons (2016-18), the latter two as Defensive Coordinator/Insider Linebackers Coach. House’s defenses anchored a Kentucky team that reached three-straight bowl games for the first time since 2007 through 2009 and culminated in a 27-24 victory over Penn State in the 2019 Camping World Bowl. In his first year with the Wildcats, House served as the Special Teams Coordinator/Inside Linebackers Coach. Before his time in Lexington, Kentucky, House spent time as a Defensive Coordinator at Pittsburgh (2012-14) and Florida International (2015). Before his college experiences, House spent four seasons in the NFL as Defensive Quality Control/Assistant Linebackers Coach for the St. Louis Rams (2009-11) and Special Teams/Strength and Conditioning Assistant for the Carolina Panthers (2008).



Britt Reid enters his seventh season with the Chiefs in 2019 and will serve as the Linebackers/Outside Linebackers Coach. Reid spent the previous three seasons as the Defensive Line Coach (2016-18). Under Reid’s guidance, Chiefs DL Chris Jones earned the AFC’s Defensive Player of the Month award for the month of October last season and had an NFL record streak of 11 consecutive games with at least 1.0 sack. Reid has also served as Assistant Defensive Line Coach (2015) and Defensive Quality Control Coach (2013-14) for the Chiefs. Prior to joining Kansas City, Reid spent three seasons at Temple University (2010-12) working with the offense. In 2009, he was a training camp coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, and in 2008, he was an assistant offensive line coach at St. Joseph’s Preparatory in Philadelphia.

Education: *Temple University (B.A. 2012).

Matt House can’t be this bad he just can’t. He had a top 10 defense in the country in Kentucky.

It shouldn't be up to a coach to teach a 28 year old man how to tackle someone. That shit is taught in 6th grade.

not as a hc though. as a coordinator. i also think reed is one of the smartest football minds to ever exist so it's not exactly a 1 to 1 comparison.

he even did a podcast with eisen and basically said coaches don't really teach shit with regards to fundamentals and technique. it's all by the book. like many are actually dumb as **** and just one big giant ol' boys club.

Spags says he has the personnel for his scheme. I just think the excuse of oh it will take time to learn the defense is an excuse for him just being a shitty DC

What can you do with no talent?

I don’t believe you can teach better tackling in the nfl. It’s a willingness and attitude to go along with the talent you already have. It shouldn’t take a position coach to tell Lee don’t try arm tackle a guy up high. He has been told before, he just isn’t good. Hitchens problem is he can’t diagnose a play. These guys are aren’t attacking, they are slow to diagnose and are meeting rb’s who have a full head of steam because the line isn’t slowing them down. DJ was a good tackle but he also helped himself by seeing the play as it developed and reacting before getting block or allowing the ball carrier the advantage of being full speed going down hill for a easy juke.

Previously successful players and coaches come to KC and automatically suck. It's remarkable.

Spags says players aren’t getting off there blocks and aren’t reading the plays correctly

I can’t blame spags at this point and it’s silly for anyone too. He isn’t gonna say the players are a bunch of liquid diarrhea because it’s what he’s got to work with. He has tried to be aggressive and he had guys in good spots yesterday that just failed miserably to make a tackle. What would you do if your d line can’t Win? The only answer is bring help from the back which he tries at time but then you need some corners to play man. A lot went into yesterday’s loss but honestly everything changed after the picked up Kelce call and Reid failed as a HC and play calling as well. Spags is pretty far down the list of blame right now.

DJ was absolute AIDS until Haley benched him and told him he could continue to suck until they cut him outright and he could go play on special teams in Buffalo, or he could man up, grow a set of balls, and work on becoming a great tackler.

Haley straight up questioned his ****ing manhood, and he responded. Same with Dwayne Bowe.

Hate to say it, but maybe Reid needs to bring Haley back as a Red Forman type of Assistant HC whose specialty is "boot in ass." Because this team is mentally and physically weak.

Some of the SHIT the Texans are saying :

"We should've blown them out by 3 TDs" (with the refs help, they could've...)
"THEY WERE WEAK, THEY DIDN'T WANT TO TACKLE, THEY JUST GAVE IT UP" - Justin Reid
"They can't ****ing stop me!" - Carlos Hyde to the CBS camera after his TD

****ing WEAK.

And THAT is on coaching, namely, it's a direct reflection of the head coach. It's who he is. It's what the defense was before Spags got here...and it's still what the defense is now that he's here. The Oline is also a fat, weak, pudgy mess. Physically AND Mentally. And that's Reid's specialty. He was Oline coach for the Packers. Heck and Reid are supposed to be 2 of the best Oline coaches in the game...but our line can't run block for shit with Erving in the game, and we're getting our all-world franchise QB beat to shit.

Bunch of weak sauce.

Britt Reid should go back to coaching the Dline, because the LBs are NOT on the same page, and the line is worse than last year...

AIDS

Full-blown AIDS.

Sir this is pop-warner level stuff. I've coached 10 year olds with better tackling mechanics than Darron Lee (slight over-exaggeration but you get the point).
