This is the 3rd year of Haley's 4-yr contract. Barring the unforseen, Haley will be going into 2012 without a contract extension and be in the final year of his 4-yr contract. Guaranteed he won't be on a death march ala Jon Fox and the 2010 Panthers, but, what do you want to see Haley achieve in 2011 in order to be rewarded with a contract extension beyond 2012? I think barring a 1-15 season Haley will be back in 2012 as Clark doesn't wan't to pay another coach $4million to sit at home ala Herm in 2009, but what do you think Clark should look for to open up his checkbook for Haley?

So let's put that on the floor for discussion here.

What needs to happen in 2011 for you to be willing to extend Todd Haley?

What would have to happen to cause you to forego the fourth year and fire his ass?

More fingerblasting and less getting caught.

No way he gets fired in 2011.

I'll agree with this.

I have a feeling that this is the thread that will be looked at as a joke after we win the division and win a playoff game. Last year, the Chiefs improved by 6 wins and we have an even better team this year(minus Moeaki). I say balls to the walls and FU for even thinking that Haley should be canned. Seriously, who else is out there that would do a better job?

Let's just enjoy the ride, shall we?

**Shaid** · 09-07-2011, 10:38 PM

We have a tough schedule and honestly, we still have some holes. I think we're between 7-9 and 9-7 this year and Haley stays. Next year is the make or break year.

Yep. That's about it.

IMHO he just has to show he is maturing as a coach. No or very few bonehead decisions. He has to get these rookies playing the way he got D, Bowe and Johnson playing. And those two still need to produce this year without taking a step back.

I don't think our record will be what it was last year, too many things already stacking up against us. Strength of schedule being the biggest. The loss of Moeaki being another. I am not even sure we make the playoffs. But if he can get the younger guys playing I would extend him.

I would hate to start shuffling head coaches the way the Faiders have. It just upsets any progress or momentum you have to continue building.

It's a different NFL - there's my contribution.

Unless we fall flat on our faces this year, I see no reason not to keep him on. Granted we won't be playing all the Girl Scout teams we played last year but we're building a solid foundation with this team. I don't expect playoff this year. If they happen, that's a bonus.

I concur, therefore I will quote the post with which I am in most agreement with.

**Tribal Warfare** · 09-07-2011, 10:52 PM

Haley's fate will rest in how manages in game decisions, and not gambling early in the contest. He's antithesis of Herm, but if Haley has multiple games like Herm did against SD which the outcome was shouldered by dumbass decisions then he's gone.

I'll take this, or maybe something a little more liberal. I'm a Haley fan, but don't expect a whole lot out of this season. But by end of 2012 we should know.

As long as Laz continues to hate him, I'll assume he's doing a good job and vote for him getting an extension.
