The Kansas City Chiefs are on the verge of a deal to make Andy Reid their next head coach, Chris Mortensen and Adam Schefter of ESPN report, this according to league sources. There still are minor details to work out but after nine hours of meetings Wednesday, one source involved in the talks said "the major issues have been discussed and agreed upon." One source close to Reid said this morning, "This is going to happen fast." The two sides spent the day Wednesday meeting at a private airport in the Philadelphia area, Reid had been scheduled to fly to Arizona to speak to Cardinals officials about their head coaching opening, but talks progressed with the Chiefs to the point where no hangups are expected. One assistant coach aligned with Reid even texted Thursday morning that he is going to Kansas City, not Arizona and once the deal is finalized, the next question in Kansas City will shift to the future of Pioli, Reid is expected to want to bring his own personnel men to Kansas City, which does not bode well for the future of Pioli. Reid worked in Philadelphia with former Browns general manager Tom Heckert, who is expected to be one candidate, Reid also is best friends with Packers director of football operations John Dorsey, who has interviewed for other general managers in the past.

Yea {Bit early} Now Smith or Vick umm Andy does good with Qbs on the down side of their careers. I would like to see Smith to KC. Just to shut up all these bay area fans around here in the bay area who wanted to hang Smith 2 yrs ago.

I think you're confusing Singletary with Smith. I don't think there were any expectations from Smith having to deal a different coach or system every single year of his NFL career in SF. And that's what has made Harbaugh look pretty damn impressive as an NFL coach. Even though Reid and Pioli have had a very good relationship, Pioli would be as good as gone.
No No 2/3 Yrs 49er fans around here hated SMITH...Reserected by Baugh Look where I live . I remember U in theChiefcrowd in tha day. Yep having a bad day. Me And yes give Smith to the Chiefs.. for the burn. Not starting Chit just say'n
Yep you called it P Gone gd. My Point is Smith from 49ers 2 Chiefs Like Joe M/ Beating niners as a Chief {Ihave that local news paper framed} or getting Elvis Gerbac from the 49ers..I just want a 49er has been/throw away to beat niners. And yes breaking rules no drunk posts-nite crowd
You'd be better off actually beating teams in your division if you're going to win anything but that's just me...:)
