I want to say that up to this point I have been a Haley supporter. A lot of people on this board wanted to shoot down those who saw disaster in the air. "You can't judge anything from pre-season." Its not pre-season anymore. Todd Haley took a different approach. He didn't trust his players to be professional and keep themselves in condition. Training camp is meant to get your team ready to play football. Todd Haley didn't do that and deserves to become fired because of it.

This team is in total disarray. Those who want to deny are going to tell me that I'm overreacting. Did you really think our top squad played all that well in pre-season even against backups? Both sides of the ball were outplayed today by a 4 win team from a year ago.

Its great you had the top rushing team in the league a year ago. You also had more rushing attempts and were 30th in passing yards. This is in a league where the passing rules greatly favor offense.

I get the idea. You want to control the clock and keep the other offense off the field. They were 17th in time of possession. They were 19th in first downs. They weren't moving the chains, they were chained by their inability to have a balanced attack.

The best teams in the league can take over a game with their offense. This team cannot. We are not one of the best teams in the league despite our lofty AFC West Championship banner.
