Oh BTW… that title isn’t “Chiefs Ease”… but Chiefs E’s. As in Efficiency, Effort, Enough and Education.

I doubt there has ever been a season to show off the Kansas City Chiefs coaches and their ability to educate and to get the most out of the players they are given this season.

While it is amazing that the Chiefs were able to keep all their coaches after winning back-to-back Super Bowls, these top three shown above may not be with the team next year if it happens again. However, there have been many other coaches who helped make the Chiefs great including Dave Merritt who has coached the Defensive backs for the Chiefs. While he’s said he’s committed to staying here awhile longer, the temptation may be to big to pass up this coming offseason. Take a look at this short article called, “Chiefs DB coach Dave Merritt indicates he’s unlikely to pursue DC openings this offseason (or the next few offseasons)” : here’s the link:

A lot is being made of the Chiefs 6-and-0 record from the stand point that they’re doing just enough to win… or… to keep from losing. Perhaps Mina Kimes says it best (0:44):
