Todd Haley is the "Mystery of Pittsburgh"
Interesting read.

I understand Pioli has messed up in regards to his inability to improve the most important position on the field. I guess I am trying to figure out if your hate for the heads of the org. are stemmed from Cassel or what. If it is because of Cassel, I can understand, he's shown his abilities. But you have to admit, your frustrations towards Pioli appear, at least in my eyes, to leak into other areas that it probably shouldn't.

Warner didn't do very well in NY because of the system... which would be coaching... yet flourished in Arizona but the coaching didn't have anything to do with it. And no, I am not saying all the credit should go to Haley. |

This is not the argument you want to hang your hat on. Romeo wasn't considered a joke of a game manager in just Cleveland. He was considered a joke around the league.
The most memorable moment was the game where I remember watching him call a timeout, sprint down the sidelines to make an ill-advised challenge, then lose the challenge (the Browns burned two timeouts). I also recall that in his short stint with Kansas City, he made a mind-numbingly dumb challenge on a reception where the receiver had two feet down by an absolute mile. And if you want extra validation: http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcwest/tag/.../romeo-crennel "I've got Romeo Crennel with an 0-13 challenge record at home, but 4-6 on the road." 4 for 19. That's less than a 25% success rate. Yikes. |

Philosophy is dictated by coaching so you can draw that conclusion. But to say he didnt do well is something of a misnomer. He didn't play up to the level in New York that he did in St. Louis or Phoenix, but he did actually do a respectable job. He just isn't a play action QB.

Tom Coughlin is the same guy in New York as he was in Jacksonville. |

Well, at least I won't have to write a declaration of independence from romeo. He'll die of old age before the proletariat rises up.

There's lots of shit Pioli has ****ed up. The 2010 and 2011 drafts were OK. Our free agent class this year is OK. Other than that, it's not hard to understand why we've only won 21 games in 3 years. And shit like Dwayne Bowe doesn't help to change my opinion.

The hope some fans have this year is absolutely audacious. The wool has been pulled over their eyes (and I'm not talking about anyone here).

So this cycles back to my question: if Pioli demotes Cassel this season, do you forgive him?
