It's what happened.
What's more ****ed up is that it's a similar reason of why Haley was fired. Haley knew Cassel didn't have the mental toughness the position requires to be successful and was positive about it leading into 2010. Weis was brought in to be the "good cop" and to "fix the quarterback" and Pioli genuinely thought Haley was destroying his prized quarterback with his hard coaching. (sad, huh...**** Pioli) This part is partially my speculation...Weis left because he knew two things...Cassel was mentally weak and was very limited physically and that there was no way the team was gonna win a championship with a limited qb and a head coach that was overly demanding and a bit of a prick. He knew staying would be a "coach killer" and that he was better off to get out asap. Probably wishes he wouldn't have ever came here. |

I love how people throw out that Haley was just throwing up a big f-u to Pioli by aging Palko...Haley was directly told that Stanzi wouldn't play a snap his rookie season and Palko was the backup. That's the patriot way. Rookie qbs are inactive and get a "redshift year" (that's also why I want Pioli gone asap) Haley got Orton up to speed asap and when he was brought in he broke his finger on his first pass and would have started the next game...but wasn't coming in to fully take over during that flea ficker play.
Pioli is one big old pussy... Here is what you have to work with (Cassel and Palko) and if you can't win playoff games with it, you're out and I'll find a coach who can. |

Not that big of a deal but I remember reading or hearing that Haley wanted more routes over the middle & Chan wouldn't have any part of it.

The best game Cassel played the last two seasons was with Haley breathing fire up his ass.
V. Minnesota last year.

So why haven't they considered giving a Stanzi a chance now that he's not a rookie. He could just as easily have 18 turnovers like Cassel. Hell, he'd probably be doing better than that right now.

Felon in possession of a firearm was Gailey's final offense.

It was one play, big deal, for a player that had no familiarity with the play book it's as good as any.

Gailey has forgotten more about offense than the entire Chiefs franchise combined.

Gailey just simply wasn't going to fit - on paper, it seemed perfect. In reality, it was oil and water; Gailey had a connection to these guys, having coached them in '08 - Haley was trying to change a culture in the face of a coach who was a part of that losing culture. Couple that with the fact that Gailey actually thought that they would have a better offense with Thiggy running the spread (though looking back, it seems more an early indictment of Cassel - and to a lesser extent, Croyle - than a ringing endorsement of Thigpen.) That being said, really seems as if ultimately, it was Pioli who hired and fired Haley's staff...not Haley.
