Wiegs was his center in Denver as well, no?

Here is the thing. I think Haley is gone. I think that Pioli will look for someone that can fix the offense while retaining Cassel. I don't think Pioli believes Cassel is a 'great' QB, but I do think he believes that Cassel is the best QB option for next year.

McDaniels has a history with Cassel and has had a ton of success on the offensive side of the ball.

I could easily see Pioli tabbing him as the next HC for the Chiefs.

And, admittedly, IF the Chiefs are locked into Cassel, then I am fine with McDaniels because I believe he gives Cassel the best chance to be successful.

And, if we all agree that QB performance is one of the biggest keys to success, it extrapolates out to: McDaniels gives the Chiefs the best chance to be successful if Cassel is definitely the QB.

I would rather see a proven guy like Fisher or Cowher here. I just don't think it happens.

Okay, I have done a search, and you think McDaniels will be the next coach.

I admit, I am very curious as to what you are attributing McDaniels dislike for Orton.

Not even disagreeing with it.... just don't know about it and have looked for any indications of it on Google and see none.

So, just let me know why you think McDaniels does not like Orton.

Thanks.

I must be missing something. I know I'm not as informed as you guys when it comes to every team and every player past, present, or future in this world or the next ...

But what has Orton ever done in his career that warrants his ability to pick and choose which team he should play for?

Explain to me how Haley is better than Herm?

The Chiefs are considering submitting a waiver claim on Kyle Orton, a source tells NFL.com's Steve Wyche.
Although the Chiefs are only two games out of first place in the AFC West, they aren't realistic threats to win the division. But if they stick with Tyler Palko at quarterback, they might not win another game all year. The addition of Orton would be a major boost to Dwayne Bowe and the entire passing game. The Chiefs are ahead of the Bears and behind the Colts in the waiver process.

Herm is an easy guy to hate if things go wrong. He says dumb things and generally acts like a circus clown at press conferences. People also hated him from day one and losses only validated that hate.

Haley is the opposite. People have been sucking his cock since day one because he wasn't Herm. He presents this bullshit blue-collar persona that people fall in love with and think they can relate to, which is laughable considering his watch probably cost more than their car.
