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

One of the worst, I meant. "Worse"?
And let's not pretend that Orton was sitting on a couch somewhere. The Palmer situation isn't analogous, though I know that Haley's super-duper-complicated offense would have made it difficult to learn even the barest essentials in 48-72 hours. Draw!!!! |

I liked Haley and he was a first time HC anywhere i beleive, i think he's gonna get another shot somewhere and this time will have a chance to pick a qb, not have one force fed down his throat. I also remember Herm saying Punts were a good thing. lol Lets not forget that Herm threw the team under the bus after every loss. I did my job, they didnt do theirs. what kind of bullshit is that. I rather go for the gusto and try to take a win then just sit back hoping the other team makes a mistake. Good teams with good qb's go for it, not wait. |

The big thing to me is that there was never any stability with the coaching staff. There was never any rhyme or reason to his gameday coaching. To me, they are both indicators of a guy who has no idea what he wants to do, no idea how he wants to build a team, and no idea how to lead. He belongs right where he is, as an OC for an offense headed by a Super Bowl winning QB, and under a boss who actually knows how to lead men. In other words, a position pretty much any competent OC could be successful in. Haley is not head coaching material...

The performances at Arrowhead were completely inexcusable! With that said I liked having a guy with so much enthusiasm. When BFlowers picked off Palmer in Oak and took it back for six, Haley raced down the entire sideline with him. It was such a contrast to Herm.

I liked Haley, and think he can thrive in the proper situation.
Polio has too much control here, and I think Haley clashed with him on a lot of his decisions. (Like Cassel as QB) |

I hope he fails miserably in Pittsburgh. That spoiled fanbase deserves about 20-25 years of disappointment.

Haley is far too smart to fail anywhere with a good QB. I've always liked his playcalling, even here. Lousy HC, but excellent OC.

They went through a lot of lean years, just like us, although their idea of a lean year is 10-6.
They are now enjoying a franchise QB, so we should not hate.

do you think one day Chiefs fans can enjoy a franchise QB?

I liked Haley. Old news now. I hope the Packers game wasn't a one hit wonder for Crennel, that's all I hope. We do have more talent, but I think Haley got ****ed. Doesn't matter now. We have who we have. I just hope Stanzi shines.
