The Kansas City Chiefs are in the market for a new offensive coordinator: The Chiefs just sent out a press release announcing that offensive coordinator Chan Gailey has been relieved of his duties. Never a good sign two weeks before the start of the season.

Update (3:12 p.m. Monday, August 31): The Chiefs released this statement from Gailey.

STATEMENT FROM CHAN GAILEY

"There's never great timing for situations like this. However, Todd has to do what's best for the team and for the future of the Chiefs. I respect that. It didn't work out for us, but I certainly think that he has a very fine offensive mind and I feel very fortunate to have worked for the Chiefs these past two years.

"I look forward to seeing how I might be able to help the franchise in
the near future in other areas."

Nice work identifying the problem, Pioli. I mean, right? We've reached a consensus that the play calling is what's holding us back, right? Glad we could all agree.
