Frank Gansz got the job because of the last game of the 86 season when his special teams unit got 3 touchdowns: blocked punt, blocked field goal, and a kickoff return to beat Pittsburgh. And if I remember the story correctly, Lowery actually advocated for Gansz to get the job. Side note: The following year they played the jets twice. Beat them once and tied 17-17.
This is correct. Everyone hated John Mackovic and summoned Lamar Hunt to a secret meeting at Nick Lowery’s house after the 86 playoff loss and begged him to can him and hire Gansz. It’s oddly very similar to 20 years later when they fired Haley for being an a-hole, and brought in the guy everyone loved even though he was completely incompetent, in Crennel, and then finally hitting the reset button with Reid.
3, actually. First win SB IV, against the Vikes (1st of their 4 SB losses). Sorry to hear that “actually” guy. P.S. JG9 I’d love to see a story about Hank Stram.
0:31 Imagine a scenario? More like "remember a scenario." My mom was like this all the time. ALWAYS trying to gaslight me into believing what I remembered and reality itself were wrong.
Thanks for a fun video. Exact opposite of what Jets fans are used to :) "Be a Jets fan. Because they'll always F you" Artie Lange's uncle, after Artie complained about his bad luck with the ladies. Have pity. Jets fans had to survive Richie Kotite, and Giants fans, Ray Perkins.
“We ain’t partners, we ain’t brothers, and we ain’t friends. And if Gansz gets away with my money, you’re gonn be sorry you ever met me.” “I’m already sorry.”
Lifelong Chiefs fan here, my favorite thing about Frank Gansz is the original "Sports Specialty" Chiefs hat that he is rocking and that I myself rocked through the late 80's and early 90's. I got a new one before every school year and still have one to this day
I got as far as that Honey Combs vs. Apple Jacks analogy. The big takeaway: Get a Pre-Nup. (Edit: Or have that Progressive “What Really Happened Replay”)
This is very similar to what happened in 2004 at Chelsea with Jose Mourinho & striker Adrian Mutu. Heading into the 2004-05 season Mutu had come off a season in which he only scored 4 goals in 20 games for Chelsea a disappointing return considering the fact that at his previous club Parma, he scored 18 goals in his last season with the club. Mourinho recommended that Mutu make more late runs into the box on corners so that he would have more chances to score & even made him the primary striker in the lineup ahead of Didier Drogba & Hernan Crespo two strikers that scored way more goals than Mutu. Then like this, in the first game this was tried vs Man United in early September, Mutu did this exact thing even though Mourinho actually meant for him to make an early run. Even though Chelsea won the match 2-0, Mourinho was absolutely livid with Mutu for disobeying him & benched him for the next few games even though Mutu did make the run Mourinho originally wanted him to make. The two then got into an argument on whether or not Mutu was injured while playing for Romania in a World Cup qualifier vs the Czech Republic (note: Mutu wasn't actually injured & used that excuse to miss practice & party in London nightclubs). Then to top it all off at the end of the month, Mutu was banned from soccer for 7 months for testing positive for cocaine. After this, both Chelsea & Mourinho had enough of Mutu & instantly released him from his contract. Mutu is one of the worst players to have ever played for Chelsea & one of the biggest busts in Premier League history.
1987 was a hugely disappointing season after squeaking in the playoffs the year before(losing to the Jets BADLY I might add). The next year the Chiefs were just as bad. That's when the owner Lamar Hunt fired Ganz and brought in Shottenheimer. The past 35 seasons have been soooo much better than the dark days of the 70's and most of the 80's.
@@matthewdaley746 Did you ever hear the story about the NY Times reporter calling Jan Stenerud in Norway to ask him about missing the game winning field goal against Miami in that historic playoff game?
I use to wonder as a kid, what were the Chiefs like in the late 80’s… then I started watching the life and times of Frank Gansz… now I know why they sucked during this time period until Marty was hired.
The Chiefs and Packers used to be the Siberia of the NFL, where the careers of players and coaches went to die. Nobody cared about either team, even their own fans.
That's one of the biggest coaching upgrades in modern NFL history. When Marty came aboard after leaving the "old" Browns, the Chiefs were back with a vengeance.
Still waiting for a video addressing Kirk Cousins not spiking the ball this past week, or the Chargers going for it on 4th and 1 from inside their own 30 while up by 4 with less than a minute left.
Lowery got what he deserved after being one of the leaders of the team mutiny against Mackovic in favor of Gansz. I've always heard that the player meeting was held at Lowery's house. Of course, it was Lamar's fault for entertaining it.
@@johnbrowntheprophet I didn't say everywhere. I went to a Cardinals game in St. Louis and it was a ghost town. A lot of stadiums weren't sell outs. You have to remember many teams sell out through season tickets which are paid for before the season but it doesn't mean they all went.
PEOPLE LISTEN TO ME. I believe I can speak with some authority on this subject. When you eat Honeycombs for breakfast your timings has to be spot on from the moment you pour the milk on it. They’re the tastiest cereal you’ll ever experience. If your timing is off by a fraction you’re screwed. Applejacks on the other hand, will give you a little bit more time to eat it after the milk is poured. You’re welcome America. 🇺🇸 🥛
I mean it sounds pretty obvious he said pooch. That said, I don’t doubt for a moment he meant to say squib in his head and misspoke. That’s a very common mental lapse haha.
What a downgrade from John Mackovic considering they were a year removed from making the playoffs. Winning percentage wise I think Romeo was worse. 2012 Chiefs were worse cause they have Brady Quinn and Cassel at QB and their defense was atrocious.
But they did have six Pro Bowl selections: Jamaal Charles, Tamba Hali, Justin Houston, Derrick Johnson, Eric Berry, and Dustin Colquitt. Seriously, the 2012 Chiefs were the result of coaching and the GM being terrible. It took Andy Reid and John Dorsey a nine-win turnaround the following year to bring the current era of Chiefs football into being.
I love how all the geniuses in the media always brag about the home crowd at Chiefs games. Look at some of those crowds from the late 70s and early 80s and there's barely twenty thousand in the stadium.
And if they had kicked it deep it could have been returned much longer than where they had fielded the squib kick. Wasn’t the kick that cost them the game. Jets went over 60 yards to score! Where was the defense? And really, pooch or squib the Jets likely were going to score. And you know what, coaches do lie!
9:19 Was as blatant a case of pushing off as I have ever seen in 40 years of following the NFL. And yes I'm aware of the 5-yard thing and even in THAT context it's still bad.
That intro is just a normal marriage

Lowry should have gotten both the Honey Combs AND the Apple Jacks 😂
Now that the Chiefs have won two Super Bowls, maybe now they can look at Frank Gansz's coaching tenure and just shake it off.
Very funny (unless it wasn’t a Taylor Swift joke, then I apologize for the sarcasm).
I look at Gansz's coaching tenure and I just need to calm down.
The chiefs used to have any many super bowl wins as the jets. Or just win!!
You magnificent bastard!

Handley. Perkins actually did something.
Yep
Perkins won about 40% of the games he coached.
Uh, that does beat 30%, so there's that :)

Damn as a jets fan I guess I got something to laugh about when I strike out with women lol
Frank Gansz, what can you say about him... at least Les Steckel didn't lie about his military service.
Thank you for your service, Les
Les Steckel doesn't lie about the Marines.

And then he would later become a complete simp and start the #mutu movement.
I missed the old Arrowhead Stadium with the Astroturf & red end zone

Nick lowery was one underrated kicker in the 80s and 90s
Actually when Gansz said “pooch kick”, he was expecting Lowery to kick a puppy over to the Jets side of the field.
What im surprised about the 87 Chiefs they didn't get MNF since they were a playoff team in 1986 when they lost to..
The Jets
Still waiting for a video addressing Kirk Cousins not spiking the ball this past week, or the Chargers going for it on 4th and 1 from inside their own 30 while up by 4 with less than a minute left.

So Lowry was told to kick a Honey Combs when he should have kicked an Apple Jacks. Got it.
Me: *what is a squib kick what is a pooch kick i don’t know football*
A squib is when the kicker kicks the ball along the ground. A pooch kick is when the kicker kicks high into the air but for only about 20 yards or so.
I gotta admit, I thought that a pooch and squib kick were the same thing.
The "tens of people" in the stands had a lot to do with the strike as well. Strikes turn people off.
People still showed up in droves at the stadiums, and they still watched the games on TV even with the scabs. 🤷🏻♂️
