I've said it over and over...I think Haley would have had this team winning playoff games with a good quarterback.
Instead, Pioli chose to fire him and push all of his chips in on Cassel...even if no other coach in the world would take the HC or OC job with Cassel here. When you push all of your chips in and lose, you get up and walk away from the table...which is what Pioli needs to do right now. |

It looks like Pioli is will be on Petro's show tomorrow. I'm sure with a preapproved list of softball questions.

I think this season has proven that Pioli is the issue. Haley was an issue, after all he was a Pioli hire, but it is so obvious now that he was the only thing keeping us competitive. How we've slid to becoming the worst team in the league is disgusting...

Coaching can get you going, yes. But if your players aren't actually as good as your coaching is, that'll be exposed at some point and it was during the playoff game and then the entire season following it and ever since.

That's time for 1, maybe 2, tough questions. At this point, should Petro or anybody else in the KC media worry about burning that bridge? Petro himself has said that it's nearly impossible to get Pioli on. Petro should take the 6 minutes to enumerate Pioli's failures and give him 60 seconds to respond or hang up. BOOM! |

One of the things I liked about Haley was that he took calculated risks. I know that's not going to sit well with everybody, but he went into the season thinking that the team would have to start slow and build momentum due to the lack of practice time ... and equally importantly, the lack of conditioning work. It wasn't a bad plan, but the injuries blew it up. Losing Jamaal was an offense killer. People can color history with their favorite crayon, and that's fine. But, it's amazing to me how people can absolutely re-invent facts ... not interpret the same facts differently ... just completely ignore some and fabricate new ones. It's kinda frustrating, to tell the truth. FAX |

That said, he was a far better coach than we have now, because he at least was able to focus on the team once he actually hired an OC, and was able to scare guys into being afraid of fumbling and throwing picks, which is what you are left with when your team ain't that good... |

No I'm convinced Pioli was out to fire Haley no matter what because he took "risks". These are not to be allowed with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Actually, Petro can be pretty demanding of all of his guests.
The problem is that the ownership of the company is just down the hall, so when they get a Pioli on, I'm guessing he's told to tone it down. Particularly since they currently have a lucrative financial agreement with the Chiefs. |
