I'm not sure whether the hiring of Weiss and Crennel puts more pressure on Haley or Pioli. After year one, neither Haley nor Pioli can brag too loudly about their accomplishments in KC. Haley's gameday decision making made me wonder WTF he was thinking and Pioli's first draft was even worse than the quality of free agents he signed. Games are consistently won by teams with the better talent and right now we are lacking talent on both sides of the ball. If we don't improve significantly next year the blame will likely be placed on Haley but Pioli needs to step up his game too. For me, the 2010 draft will be very significant for Pioli. He needs to demonstrate why he was voted NFL executive of the decade with NE and verify that he too wasn't simply riding the coattails of Bilichek.
