Teicher: Haley, Harbaugh shrug off post-game disagreement
Haley, Harbaugh shrug off post-game disagreement
By ADAM TEICHER The Kansas City Star For at least the second occasion in his brief time with the Chiefs, Todd Haley got into a post-game disagreement with the opposing head coach. It happened this time after Friday night’s 31-13 preseason loss to the Ravens in Baltimore. Haley and his Baltimore counterpart, John Harbaugh, appeared to have some cross words during their brief post-game meeting on the field. The Ravens had a favorable result safely tucked away when they got the ball back leading 24-13 with 1:18 remaining. Rather than have their quarterback kneel after the snap a couple of times, Harbaugh had the Ravens attacking. Quarterback Hunter Cantwell threw a 38-yard pass on the Ravens’ first play of the drive and Baltimore later called timeout to set up a one-yard touchdown run by Anthony Allen with five seconds left in the game. “I want to apologize to the Chiefs if they feel we were not doing the right thing at the end of the game,’’ Harbaugh said in his post-game remarks. “If this had been the regular season, we would have been on a knee. The idea in this situation is to give the young guys who work hard and who are trying to make the football team, this football team or another football team, to play the whole 60 minutes and give them a chance to show what they can do . ..I know that’s debatable. I know there are points of view both ways. “I think (Haley) said something like, ‘I don’t know about that’ and I understood that. I just said, ‘Preseason, preseason for the young guys.’ And he said, ‘OK.’ ’’ For his part, Haley tried to downplay any clash with Harbaugh. “I just control what we do,’’ Haley said shortly after game’s end. “There are probably guys out on the field that may have had limited opportunity. Coaches get very limited opportunity to evaluate (players) so their coach has to do what he has to do to get his team ready just like I’m trying to do what we have to do to get ours ready.’’ Haley had angry words and gestures for Denver coach Josh McDaniels after the Broncos routed the Chiefs last year. |

Here is what happened. After last years McDaniels incident, everyone now looks for any reason Haley might not be happy with an opposing coach and then watches to see if their "midfield handshake meeting" is anything other than 100% basic and normal. If it's not, there's a story. Give me a break.

This time I have to side with Harbaugh. This gave both teams an opportunity to see how the scrubs would react in a real game situation. A stop by the Chiefs or a score by the Ravens might have given 2-3 of those guys an opportunity to continue their career in the NFL with their current or future team.

Without any evidence to suggest that he was pissed by the fact that the Ravens didn't take a knee, game announcers suggested that to be the reason. Myself, I assumed the reason he was pissed was that the Chiefs defense failed to execute. As I said earlier, at the end of the game, Haley gave no indication, at all, that he was pissed at Harbaugh. He simply shook Harbaugh's hand and started to walk away. Harbaugh initiated any and all conversation. This is an issue because Harbaugh, without any provocation from Haley, felt compelled to justify himself.
