Jeff Chadiha Interviewed on 810 this morning -Interesting bits about Cassel and OC

[ComfortablyNumb]

Jeff Chadiha of ESPN was interviewed on 810 this morning and had some interesting bits about Cassel:

- He revealed that Haley told him that his father, Dick Haley (famous Steelers personnel man), upon watching Cassel practice told him "I don't think you can win with this guy"

- Was told by a source within the Chiefs that he trusts that Matt Cassel was still mistakenly calling out plays using Patriots terminology...in year two

- Was told that Weiss was not a Cassel fan at all (I know this isn't new, but yet another source confirming what we already know)

- Was informed by multiple sources around the league that the Chiefs OC job is not a prime destination because of the atmosphere created by *****, lack of confidence in the staying power of Romeo and the fact that Cassel is the QB

Very depressing interview....

don't know, but he obviously has people in the organization telling him stories...he's been bagging on ***** for almost an hour

again, just his opinion, but he is clear that he thinks ***** is petty a-hole focused on all the wrong details and that the work environment is shitty for everyone...and that Clark doesn't pay much attention or give a shit about anything but the numbers...

Insanity aside, this is an organizational issue.

Clark said he was going to separate the business and football functions into two, distinct operations. To my mind, parking spaces is a non-football issue.

Unless, of course, Cassel needs a few due to his spacial-recognition difficulties.

sounding more and more like my Sundays are going to be free'd up.

***** may turn out to be some super genious...but this just depressing to listen to...

we've become the assholes of the league

Did he have these ... er ... behavioral issues in New England?

If so, I don't recall hearing about it.

I've really soured on this guy. No doubt he was the best hire at the time. So props to Clark for that move at that time.

But since then?...

- The Patriot Way talk (so sick of it)
- The secrecy this organization has taken on
- These stories
- The hiring of only his old buddies he has ties with
- Tyson Jackson
- Todd Haley
- And apparently feeling like he's tied to Matt Cassel

Is enough for me to be done with him. We'll see. If this team trots out Matt Cassel and loses, the stadium will be empty and that should be enough right there to make Clark want to make a move.

This and someone puts together a spreadsheet and send it to Clark showing how jersey sales would skyrocket it the Chiefs actually drafted and developed a QB.

Chiefs play 2 playoff teams next year (I'm not counting the Broncos fluke).

so, expect a 9-6 / 8-8 season, and a general mindset from teh Chiefs/***** of "all is gonig to plan. we're building with Cassel"

short of a couple of 24+ losses/blowouts, I don't see Clark making a change.

Had I been Haley I might have played Palko too. I'd seriously kill myself before having to work for this dickweed.

I heard Haley went into Arrowhead one night with black paint and pulled a Kramer. He enlarged his own parking spot to be double the size of *****'s.

***** didn't have the authority in NE to be such a dick. Now, he's top dog, and on a power trip. I guessing Haley called him out on it in front of other employees, and is why he had to go. This idea of it being a toxic environment because both guys had huge egos is nonsense. What GMs and HCs don't have huge egos? Had to be more than that.

Clearly, there was conflict between Dr. Evil and Haley almost from the get-go. However, did Haley make ***** throw stuff at the TV because he wasn't mentioned in a news piece? I think not.

I know a lot of guys with huge egos. I even know this one girl with two huge egos. Most of them don't behave like spoiled children who bitch about candy wrappers and parking spaces, though.

I don't know ... there's a part of me that just wants to move on. Then, there's another part of me that wants to know what in the name of Bill Muir's Depends Budget is wrong with *****. He sounds unstable.

I think your crystal ball is pretty clear. Very likely to happen
