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.

I expect him to throw 35 TDs next season with defensive improvements. That's still going to likely be best in the league or close to it. It just won't be 50.
I expect 40 TD’s out of him with 5000 yards in 2019. [Reply]

How many chances should we give him? He's 28 years old and hasn't ever been even slightly consistent. Maybe 30? 35? [Reply]
And in the interest of full disclosure, by me saying these things, I'm admitting I was wrong about Dee Ford.
I was a big fan of the pick and defended him for a couple of years (before I stepped away from CP for a bit).
I was wrong about Dee Ford. He's not dependable. He's had too many injuries. The Chiefs need people they can count on week in and week out. That's not Dee Ford. [Reply]
Yeah but you do see the logic failure in saying this was his first good year and he's not consistent, right? Because that is making my head hurt. [Reply]

There is no logic failure.
He's 28 years old. He played 5 years of college ball (due to medical redshirt, of course) and 5 years of NFL ball.
He's never been consistent. He's had PLENTY of chances to demonstrate it and he's never done it.
If he was a rookie or 2nd year player, you'd have a point. He's not. He's closing in on 30 and a near decade of nothing but injuries and inconsistency. [Reply]

And for what was spent on him, last years output should have been year two output, no injuries.
But since it's a "100% injury-guaranteed league", we'll just forget about all of that and give him a fat extension next year, amirite?!?!?

Sigh. If this was his 'first good year' (which I disagree with) then he has not had a chance to prove he can be consistently good. If he goes to Indianapolis, for instance, and gets 18 sacks in their new 4-3 everyone here is going to kick themselves for letting him get away. [Reply]
