Which is exactly why you lose credibility. Three years ago, we were talking about drafting Russell Okung and moving Albert to Guard because he just wasn't good enough to play left tackle. Today, he's a top tier left tackle and people want to franchise tag him and are enraged at the thought that Pioli may choose to not re-sign him. He improved dramatically. It's ridiculous to suggest he's not significantly better than he was as a rookie.

The above is a completely invented narrative for many of the posters on this board, including the vast majority of posters whom I interact with on this site. Hell, we've largely lambasted any suggestions of moving Albert, much like we used to mock individuals who decried the play of Carr. |

This whole exchange is laughable, and I'm done debating the merits of a shitty HC. Teflon Todd with the tastiest rod in town. |

He had to play somebody. He put Orton in as soon as he could and he got hurt on his first play. Evidence suggests that Haley was told not to play Stanzi under any circumstances. Who was left? There is also good reason to believe (Babb's report) that Haley wanted Hasselbeck and was told by Pioli to go pound sand. To me, it appears that Pioli painted the entire franchise in a corner with Cassel. That, I believe, is the root problem in respect to Palko, et al. FAX |

He's either a ****ing moron or he was TRYING to hurt Orton in order to have an excuse to go back to Palko. |

Orton was healthy and sitting while Palko stunk it up.
I don't see the connection here...

For half a game against the Bears. Unless you're suggesting it was a terrible decision to not start Orton on Sunday against Pittsburgh when he didn't report to the Chiefs until mid-day that Friday.

People keep saying this, but it's not completely true.
Orton didn't make it to KC until 3 days before the Steelers game. The only mistake Haley made was not starting him in Chicago. He dislocated his finger in Chicago. He couldn't play vs the Jets. Finger. He played the next game vs GB. |
