Riding the line of "this guy might be mentally unhinged" doesn't guarantee shit about how soft or tough your team is. The only thing it means is your coach probably needs some goddamn Prozac. That's it.
Please point to the "toughness" Haley instilled in this team when he was head coach. 4-12, 10-6, and 6-7. Woah! So goddamn tough! Where the **** was the toughness? Shaun Smith grabbing balls. That's all I can think of.

Didn't Thomas Jones beat Jonathan Baldwin's ass?
I kid, I kid.
Haley didn't have time, first of all.
Second of all, he never had a chance with Pioli, who between gum wrapper checks had no idea of how to be an NFL GM, unless you consider cutting/resigning below average safeties as the best way to be productive on either end of giving Matt Cassel Alex Smith-like money and picking Tyson Jackson 3rd overall...
Haley had Charles getting 7 yards a carry with defenses STACKED against him, because, for some odd reason, Matt Cassel didn't really demand any respect on the vertical side of the field.
Dude made chickenshit out of chicken salad.
He kicked ass in Pittburgh, too.
They scored 42 points in 3 quarters, on a Jacksonville team who has rode their DOMINATING defense to AFCCG.
The Jags offense, who by the way, could barely eek it out against ****ing BUFFALO at home, suddenly lit the "Steel Curtain" up for 45.
That's damn near a fitty-burger, son.
But "Haley's the problem."
Math. Logic. Deductive reasoning.
Use them. They can be your friends.
