Approximately a year ago, the Kansas City Chiefs were getting ready to start training camp with an almost entirely new defensive staff. While the focus was largely on Steve Spagnuolo’s introduction to Kansas City — hello, Summer of Spags — it was also the start for a group of defensive assistants new to the Chiefs.
We at Arrowhead Pride spent a lot of time discussing an all-star assistant coaching staff last offseason. Adding Brendan Daly, Matt House, Dave Merritt, and Sam Madison had Chiefs fans placing some high expectations on a quick defensive turnaround.
