Chiefs Would it be a mistake to fire Todd Haley? - Page 34

**BossChief** · 12-07-2011, 11:54 PM

I started the year in full support of Haley. This team was developing into one of the better teams in football and were young across the board...despite being handcuffed to Matt Cassel. The growth in almost all of our young talent was apparent and easily recognizable.

His fiery attitude is infectious and the team plays with that emotion and passion. Haleys motivational skills are up there with about anyones.

For that, I was willing to overlook his mismanagement of situational football and a few other deficiencies that come with a first time coach and assumed that he would improve in those areas, with experience.

This is one hell of a hard season to judge because of the lack of an offseason. I am willing to give him a partial pass on the early part of the schedule because I still believe it was the right plan if we are looking at the long term big picture. It just sucks that we coincidentally ran into the injury bug at crucial positions early on.

All that said, his offense is embarrassing to watch while Romeos defense is seemingly entering GOD mode without, arguably, its best player. Everyone on earth (sans Haley, seemingly) can see that Palko has no place in the NFL and Haley is seemingly OK with betting half the year on him. I dont understand what Haley sees from a quarterback that has the weakest arm Ive ever seen in the NFL.

I still think that Haley deserves a shot at it with a real quarterback. This team is giving good effort and I think most agree it would be a contender with a real quarterback. Who could have this team in position to contend with these quarterbacks (Im not even gonna touch the Stanzi situation)?

I guess the way we deal with the remaining 4 games plays a lot into this, but at this point I think it would be a mistake to fire Haley either during or after this year, but I can see why someone would disagree with that opinion and thats why I want to see how a poll on this topic shakes out.

Do YOU think it would be a mistake to fire Todd Haley and replace him prior to next year?

When you don't have anyone that can pass the ball you have to run a lot.

I wouldn't go that far. Now I hate the guy. I hate his playing style, and his ridiculously undeserving hype.

But he's better than Palko.

Don't get me wrong. They are both pretty terrible. But, Palko can actually hold a respectable completion %.

Tebow avg's 15 passes a game and completes only 47%.

Palko avg's 20 passes a game and completes 62%.

If it weren't for cornhole, there's no way we pull off the Monday night win.

Without a ****ing blocking scheme, yes.

Crenell's communication is really up for scrutiny, due to Haley's ineptitude, over this last calendar year.

Zorn has played his role, over this season.

Zorn has a better grasp of what this team needs.

The billowing is great, if you need air for a fire.

It's putting fire to the metal, that matters more.

Haley, your 410. Zorn is 303. Goodbye.

(P.S. Chuckie's 304.)

Ceteris Paribus.

The Chiefs are going to be a pretty good team next year.

And it will be under Todd Haley.

Suddenly he will win back some of the people who are against him right now.

Mark it down. 11-5 in 2012. Results may vary depending upon quarterback.
