Few players have ever had the kind of season Patrick Mahomes ju

st turned in.None of them did it in their first year as a starter.The Chiefs quarterback was named PFT’s offensive rookie of the year Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 , for the incredible numbers he put up in his second season in the league.Mahomes finished the year with 5,097 yards and 50 touchdowns, with just 12 interceptions.The only other player in league history with a 5,000/50 season is some guy named Peyton Manning, who did it for the Broncos in 2013, when he was 37.The 23-year-old Mahomes wasn’t supposed to be this good, this soon. But thanks to being surrounded with a perfect coach to develop him (Andy Reid), the right mentor to watch as a rookie (Alex Smith) and a cast of fast and versatile targets (Tyreek Hill 2019 Mecole Hardman Kansas City Chiefs , Travis Kelce, et. al.), he was able to blossom sooner than anyone expected.But to credit all those contributing factors may actually take away from his own role in this. Blessed with a strong arm, he averaged 8.8 yards per pass attempt, while completing 66 percent of his passes.Things may never line up this perfectly for him again, but that shouldn’t take away from the fact he turned in one of the best individual seasons the league has seen. We seem to know who most of the Chiefs assistant coaches will be in 2019, but we don’t yet know for sure."Back in the days of the Cold War, Kremlinologists tried to figure out what was happening at the upper levels of the government of the Soviet Union by studying photographs of Soviet leaders at public appearances.Sometimes by paying attention to which leaders were standing next to others Mecole Hardman Jersey Cheap , they could figure out which leaders held the most power in the halls of the Kremlin, and which ones were on the way out.Something similar has been happening since the Kansas City Chiefs announced the firing of defensive coordinator Bob Sutton. But unlike Cold Warriors, we don’t have to use magnifying glasses to examine grainy photographs of parade reviewing stands. Instead, we have Twitter!Here’s a timeline of what we know:January 22:Bob Sutton fired as defensive coordinatorJanuary 24:Steve Spagnuolo hired as defensive coordinatorJanuary 26: Packers hire Chiefs’ Mike Smith as outside linebackers coachJanuary 29: Bears hire Chiefs’ Mark DeLeone as inside linebackers coachFebruary 7: Dave Merritt (reportedly) hired as defensive backs coachFebruary 7: Brett Veach says defensive coaches will be “nailed down” in next few daysFebruary 8: Matt House (reportedly) hired as linebackers coachFebruary 9: Matt House (reportedly) decided to remain at KentuckyFebruary 9: Brendan Daly (reportedly) hired as defensive line coachFebruary 12: Chiefs (reportedly) still trying to sign Matt HouseFebruary 12: Matt House (reportedly) hired as linebackers coach (again)February 12: Chiefs defensive backs coach Emmitt Thomas retiresFebruary 18: Rutgers (reportedly) hires Chiefs’ Jay Valai as cornerbacks coachThe newest piece of information here is that defensive quality control assistant Jay Valai is reportedly being hired by Rutgers University as their cornerbacks coach.As of this writing, this is not confirmed; Valai is still listed on the roster of Chiefs assistant coaches.Only Spagnuolo’s hiring — and the retirement of Thomas — have been officially announced by the Chiefs.The Packers and Bears officially announced the hires of Smith and DeLeone, and both were removed from the Chiefs roster of assistant coaches.When it was reported that Merritt had been hired as defensive backs coach, the presumption was that the jobs of both Thomas and secondary/cornerbacks coach Al Harris could be in jeopardy.With Thomas’ retirement, Harris’ position seems more tenable Mecole Hardman Jersey Womens , but we don’t know that for sure.Also unknown is the status of Britt Reid (son of head coach Andy Reid) who is still listed as defensive line coach.The original report that Daly had been hired as Chiefs defensive line coach appeared to be solid, and Daly is not currently listed as a Patriots assistant coach.It could be that the Chiefs are waiting for the younger Reid (and perhaps Harris) to find jobs elsewhere before making an official announcement about all the coaching changes.That would seem to be consistent with Andy Reid’s leadership style — particularly when one of the assistant coaches in question is his own son.Reid was hired as Chiefs head coach on January 4, 2013.Just one week later, the Chiefs had announced who would serve as offensive and defensive coordinators under Reid, as well as the names of most of the assistant coaches.It’s now been eleven days since Chiefs GM Brett Veach said that all the assistant coaches would be “nailed down” in a few days.What’s the holdup?
