610 Sports afternoon host Nick Wright now says on the air that he believes Chiefs coach Todd Haley will soon be gone. And Nick really likes Todd and thinks he is a good coach in a bad situation. But Nick believes Scott Pioli is also to blame and blames him hard.

It's now also known that Todd and Scott do not get along and haven't for some time.

All of which adds up to the following; its just a matter of time before Haley is let go by the Chiefs. Word at Woodside - where I met Haley during his first season - is that the decision has already been made. I think the Haley family is getting ready to leave Kansas City soon. Not until after it's official, of course. I also believe Haley will land a post in the NFL or College Football, but probably not as a head coach in the NFL.

Many other radio sports guys are saying how shocked they are at Chiefs being so bad and that nobody saw this coming.

Bullshit! I know someone who did. ME. I never bought into the preseason, "We lose on purpose" crap. The Chiefs just plain stunk. And that 2-5 down the stretch last year showed me we were a bottom seven or eight team by the playoffs. After the preseason we were a bottom five team.

And after the injuries, we are the worst team in the NFL that includes Indy and Seattle, who are right next to us.

The new power rankings have the Chiefs DEAD LAST.

So now Nick wants to SUCK FOR LUCK.l

Lose every game to get Andrew Luck as our first round draft pick next year. He's the No.1 quarterback in college ball.

I feel the team has quit, they know Haley's a goner, so they're kinda no shows. The Chargers can score whenever they want too against us. We have only two weapons, fumble fingered Dexter and D-Bowe. Wow. That means less than 10 points a game, unless there are turnovers.

Looks like another plus 40 point loss this week. We are already setting several stink records. For example, we're on our way to the most points a team has been beaten by in three straight games. Three playoff teams are 0-2, the Chiefs, the Rams and Seattle. The Chiefs and Seattle really stink and Rams will be lucky to win six.

How the mighty have fallen...

This is excellent. An interim head coach will sow seeds of discord among the players and result in chaos, disorganization and best of all, lack of effort.

So without further adieu, making his 2011 debut...

I blame Todd for the following reasons:

1. He gets partial blame for the team having no depth at key positions.
2. His offseason program was a nightmare and cost the team early.
3. He gets partial blame for not being able to work with Gailey and Weis.

All of this.

The offensive game plan has to be constructed around Cassel's limitations, the offensive coaching staff has to be constructed around Haley's limitations. Bill Muir is Haley's check down.

Haley will not be gone. Don't underestimate the 'mote defense' of the Big 3. They all came in 'together as rookies'(owner,GM and HC) they will defend each other's moves unconsciously,sub-consciously and consciously. And they will use the Lockout(no OTA's)acquired 'ACL bug' to 2/3rds of our playmakers and strength of schedule combined as excuses in their own minds to justify their decisions without actually saying it publically.

You watch, no major moves will be made. Count on it!!!!

3. He gets partial blame for not being able to work with Gailey and Weis.

1. He does deserve partial blame for that.

2. It's not like this is the first time these guys have played football. They should already know how to tackle and know how to block and not hold people and hold on to the ball. For the most part these aren't just the rooks that are making the mistakes, there are vets fucking up too. That's not on Todd. He wanted people to be in shape. The people that have been here should also know the playbook. He didn't do anything that horrible in the offseason. We have a bunch of weakass suck buddies on our team, so I guess that goes back to number 1.

3. He should not have to be forced to work with anyone. He's the coach. If him and another guy don't gel well then, peace out. I can understand if players don't get along, fuck you play away, but the top dog should work with people that are on the same page otherwise you get this shit that we have here. We all know that Pioli picked Weiss and him and Gailey just didn't work. He shouldn't be blamed for wanting to work with people he wants to work with and not who the fans want him to work with.

He's not the best coach, but i like him. Yea he makes dumbass calls sometimes, but he has the guts to do it and thats cool with me. For my money I'd like to see Pioli, Cassel and Muir gone and then we can go from there.

I would agree with that however with Haley this isn't one of those rare situations were he didn't along with a certain person. From the best I can tell he is a horses ass that doesn't get along with most people.

My Indiana Hoosiers seem to be dealing with a similar thing in HC Kevin Wilson. Wilson appears to be a great football mind, something probably not the case with Haley, but stories seems to keep leaking out about him being a belligerent A hole that nobody wants to work with. He had three asst coaches he hired in the offseason all leave within 4 weeks. Not good.

good post durty. I wouldn't change the staff out though. This team is in it's third season and struggling to make further progress. That's not unusual. There is lacking talent here and this staff is playing young players in order to develop them, so that is a major part of the falloff this season. But there are veteran players making horrible mistakes and generally playing poorly. Dorsey, DJ, Hali are all on that weakside playing poor football. Teams are exploiting them too. that is sad. Obviously, Cassel and Bowe are stinking it up as well. Can't expect the staff to hold these player's hands, you're right.

This is a perfect example as to why as a coach you are stupid if you don't do your best to come off as a likable guy to the media and fans. Truth is, I prefer a coach who is a hard ass and if he is successful then it doesn't matter if you are a nice guy or not. But if you come off as an A Hole and you struggle then the fans and media aren't going to give you near as much slack as they will a coach that seems like a nice guy. When you are a prick you put a big target on your back and will have a lot of people ready to start firing at it during your first slip up.

Ehh.....he's at a crossroads. Haley's contract will be up. Pioli can either give Haley a new contract and a new QB....or he can get a new HC and QB.

The thing is.....if he gives Haley a new contract....I think they might look more at getting a veteran QB who can come in and get this team back into the playoffs....instead of actually drafting a rookie and suffering through the 1st year.

We will have to see how the season plays out. But if everyone is right and we win only 0-3 games, i dont see how you can bring Haley back? You cant do that to your fanbase and season ticket holders.

Im not sure if theres a precedent thats been set by another team before? (someone will have to research)

Just going off what seems to be a pattern. Had a big tiff with Kurt Warner in Arizona which is saying something as Warner seems like one of the nicest guys out there. Didn't get along with Weis. Doesn't get along with Pioli. And not my favorite source but Whitlock says repeatedly he is an insecure a hole. Well noted for his sideline temper. Now that doesn't make you an a hole but most a holes do have a bad temper.

I wouldn't hold anyone of those things against him but the pattern seems to indicate he is a horses ass. You disagree?

go watch Haley's latest presser. He patiently waits for mouthy Nick Wright to lay out 2 questions of which Wright obviously loves to here himself talk. Haley comes back very sincerly to those questions. The days of "meanie face Haley" are long gone.

Warner sings his praises as do several of his other former players. Michael Holley, the guy who wrote a book about Belichick, Dimitroff, and Pioli, says that he saw no sign of friction between Pioli and Haley during his time behind the closed doors of the Chiefs organization. I don't know, there are certainly some rumors going around, but I don't see a lot of real evidence that Haley is hard to get along with.

2. His offseason program was a nightmare and cost the team early.
3. He gets partial blame for not being able to work with Gailey and Weis.

4. the alleged waitress groping incident.

Haley > Pioli

any other QB > Cassel

but, losing Moeaki, Berry, and Charles before the leaves turn > any of that

Yes, Haley needs charm school. Yes, maybe Pioli isn't as good at GMing as you hoped for. Yes, Cassel needs to go, like, yesterday. But, frankly, if you had the best coach, best GM, and best QB, I'm not sure even that would outweigh losing your best TE, best young DB, and best (if not league-best) young RB.

As for the Patriots when Bernard Pollard entered Foxboro a few years back, this season was lost for the Chiefs before it even began. The Chiefs can rally and win some games and be awarded for pluck but, like that Patriots team, it's not going to amount to much, I don't think.

If Haley is on borrowed time it's for no other reason than his own incompetence. No conspiracies, no secret moves or motives.

Haley decided he didn't want Gailey
Haley couldn't get make it work with Weis (for whatever reason you want to believe)

Haley chose to promote Muir even though he wasn't doing a good job at his previous position of Oline.

Haley wanted control of the offense and got it. He job depends on whether or not it succeeds. So far the offense has looked terrible under him and better under Weis.

Imo there are only 2 things that can save Haley now.

1. Offensive success (and relative team success)
2. if Pioli really did shove cassel/weis on him and tell him to 'deal with it'

If all the tinfoil hat conspiracies are correct then Pioli may decide that HE made the key mistakes and therefore Haley deserves another chance. We will find out soon enough. If the team continues to tank and Pioli keeps Haley and replaces Cassel/Muir then Pioli considers something other than Haley the problem.

hahaha ya, he's santa :D

Gailey was put on paid leave essentially. He was removed from the offense because Haley wanted direct access to the offense. Don't know why, other than he's a offensive coord and has worked with receivers for 2 decades. duh. people make all this fuss over it. dumb. It was his first season with a new team.

Haley gives no indication of alleged 'bad voodoo vibes inside the front office' during his pressers. He's not tentative at all. He's not grumpy, he's not defensive. There is no indication he's on the outs at 1 Arrowhead other than a rife NFL approved rumor mill manufacturing accusations about the failures of the Chiefs.

They still need receivers. I absolutely am tired of Matt Cassel, but those wideouts are playing less than stellar. Bowe and Urban drops last week were pathetic and those are the plays that can at least spark the offense if not get them to some eventual points on the board. Confidence breeds confidence in exponential ways simply by making catches.

The Chiefs have big problems at TE. They are often unable to run the football because these TE's, particularly Becht is slow and can't seem to get out there to block.

Also, Asamoah isn't pulling for blocks very well either. He's slow to get where he can be effective during a run play. The OL in general is stumbling during run plays and some pass blocking assignments. This is a big problem for the Chiefs right now and it won't get fixed until this line has time to get to know each other's footsteps and how long it takes guys to pull etc.

Why do people keep saying Haley isn't grumpy as some sort of defense of Haley? Who gives a fuck?

The problem is lack of success

1st year under Haley - offense sucks
2nd year under Weis - offense is decent
3rd under Haley - offense is looking just like sucky 1st year.

In fact, almost to the very game Haley took over the offense last year the offense has sucked shit. We've scored a total of 41 pts in 5 games.

You can talk about Cassel all you want but he was here during all 3 years.

Weis > Haley

until Haley proves he's good enough to make chicken salad out of chicken shit, like Weis did, then we need an upgrade.

btw Haley ISN'T a proven OC ... the only offense he's been OC of in the NFL is Arizona and that was Whisenhunt's offense. Haley stepped in midseason to call the plays for an offense with Warner,Fitzgerald and Boldin. BFD.

you're changing the subject. We are talking about running the offense not being HC. Haley insists on basically being both and has failed at the OC part.

Whether Weis is a shitty Head coach doesn't change the fact that under him the offense was MUCH better than under Haley.

SOS doesn't count either because we haven't play our hard games yet.

with Weis as OC we found a way to beat buffalo
with Haley/Muir we got demolished

Haley has the rest of this year to prove that he is good enough at the OC part of his job to make it worth keeping him as HC.

We will have to see how the season plays out. But if everyone is right and we win only 0-3 games, i dont see how you can bring Haley back? You cant do that to your fanbase and season ticket holders.

Im not sure if theres a precedent thats been set by another team before? (someone will have to research)

Tom Landry

In 1960, he became the first head coach of the Dallas Cowboys and stayed for 29 seasons (1960–88). The Cowboys started with difficulties, recording an 0–11–1 record during their first season, with five or fewer wins in each of their next four. Despite this early futility, in 1964 Landry was given a ten year extension by owner Clint Murchison Jr.. It would prove to be a wise move as Landry's hard work and determination paid off, and the Cowboys improved to a 7–7 record in 1965. In 1966, they surprised the NFL by posting 10 wins, and making it all the way to the NFL championship game. Dallas lost the game to Lombardi's Green Bay Packers, but this season was but a modest display of what lay ahead...

The team bought into what Haley was selling 100% and free agents viewed this as a good place to sign...Haleys previous players followed him here in droves.

What we have here (and Pest already brought this up) is a team showing the signs of "fuck it, we arent gonna win a fucking thing with this guy at QB"

They saw all they needed to in the playoff game, as did we.

They see how much better Ricky Stanzi is in practice in every facet of the game as a 5th rounder.

This team of young guns deserve a good quarterback to lead them and they know Cassel isnt it.

I bet damn near anything that if we dumped Cassel and Muir, this team would be energized again.

The problem with judging Haley on this situation is obviously Matt Cassel. Its been reported a few times that Zorn and Haley have been screaming at Matt to throw the ball deep.

Its kinda hard to know what kind of quality offense is being called when you have Matt running it. I think Weiss built an offense to protect Matt where Haley is calling one that he wants to call and its just making things worse.

That being said, I think with a quality QB, Haley's offense could be fine. I am not saying I know this for sure, but I don't think its being completely fair to say Haley fails as an OC til you know if its Haley's calls or Matt ignoring them and checking down.

Second year? Not bad. Not bad at all.

I agree. There is no doubt that Haley has made major mistakes. I still believe in him. I still believe with a quality QB he can run a good offense. I saw a team that came out hard last week. They are just overmatched, injuried, and led by a horrible QB. I honestly didn't see a team that gave up on their coach specifically.

"hopefully" the fall guy?

Why in the hell do you want Muir to take the fall for Haley?

Haley ran the offense the 1st year and it was stank ass.

Haley is running this offense no matter what public bullshit they makeup about Muir.

You want Haley back next year as OC even if he sucks?

I don't understand this affection/loyalty for Haley. You sure as hell don't have any loyalty to anyone else.

You really want to keep a sucky HC/OC just because i don't like him? Really?

pretty sad

trololol

You think I like Haley because you dislike him? hahha

I have been loyal to my takes on most players and coaches. Show me some examples if you feel that statement to be untrue.

Haley is a demanding leader that makes everyone accountable for their own bodies and their ability to be responsible to the team. He has no problem benching players that under perform (except when Pioli handcuffs him to Cassel) and don't do what the coaches are asking. He is a master motivator and players praise his coaching similarly to how they praised Parcells....in that he will try to break you to make you stronger and I can respect that.

His offense in Arizona is what he wants to run and he cant do that with Matt.

He just cant.

I attribute the first year to a team transitioning from a pistol spread offense (and Gailey/Herms softer approach) to a real pro style one to go along with a new playbook and a HC that expects you to actually be in shape to be able to play for him.

Cassel cant even throw a respectable mid range pass (20 or so yards) without putting everything he has into it...even then it takes forever to get the pass out and it gives defenders plenty of time to break on the ball and get in position to break it up or take it home.

Haley wants someone that can throw every NFL pass to make defenses defend the whole field...right now, teams play their safeties as shallow as Ive ever seen safeties play in this league because they dont have to account for the deeper passes.

If we do end up firing Haley and not going the Tom Landry direction with him, he will return to running a bigtime offense for a couple years and be right back into another HC spot and be very successful and it would be a big mistake if we fire him because of Cassel.

JMO, I guess.

You guys can tap dance around all you want but that's fact.

Haley has the rest of this year to prove he can handle being HC/OC. If not he either gives up the OC part or hits the road.2 seasons? We're 2 games in, dumbass. Did you forget how fucking pathetic it was thru 2 games last season?

Haley will not be gone. Don't underestimate the 'mote defense' of the Big 3. They all came in 'together as rookies'(owner,GM and HC) they will defend each other's moves unconsciously,sub-consciously and consciously. And they will use the Lockout(no OTA's)acquired 'ACL bug' to 2/3rds of our playmakers and strength of schedule combined as excuses in their own minds to justify their decisions without actually saying it publically.

I agreed with much of that post so I cut it out. I don't agree with this part though. At least not with the idea that Cassel's arm strength is a problem. He has plenty of arm strength. His accuracy on longer throws might be a problem and his decision making and timeliness are pretty clear problems.

I don't know how other people think about it, Mr. bricks. For my part, however, I was impressed with the way he forced and willed the team into competitive condition (both physical and mental) when he first arrived. I like his "tough love" approach and thought, for example, that the way he handled Bowe and DJ was impressive ... even though the local media had a cow at the time.

I also think (although this is based mainly on his past work with other franchises), that he could probably field a pretty exciting offense were he given a quarterback whose chinstrap was not consistently filled with drool.

He's advanced the cause over the last couple of years. Given where we were when he took over and what he's had to work with, frankly, that's about all one could ask.

How many sacks did he take? The rap against Warner during that period was that he'd take a sack instead of throwing the ball away because the sack didn't hurt his QB rating.

In fact, I just looked it up. During that year with the Giants, he had 39 sacks. He was sacked one time for every 7.1 attempts. During his last 3 years as a starter in Arizona, he was sacked one time for every 18.8 attempts.

By contrast, Matt Cassel has been sacked once every 13.9 attempts as a Chief. So Warner the Giant was sacked nearly twice as often as Cassel the Chief.

I think that part of Warner's ascendance in Arizona was due to the fact that he finally recovered from the thumb injury that he originally suffered against us in that 54-34 blowout in 2000.

He hurt his thumb pretty badly, then injured it again, IIRC, and really wasn't the same after hurting it again in 2002 until he was settled in Az.

I'm not pinning Cassel's failures on Haley but theres more wrong with the team than just Cassel. I put the blame of Cassel on Pioli as well as Tyson Jackson and Todd Haley. Scott Pioli should be fired along with Todd Haley if we end up picking in the top 10 this year.

Theres more players on the defensive line than just Tyson Jackson that suck. You would have an argument if the defense wasn't giving up nearly 400 yards and game and we were losing games 10-9 but we're not.

Its a young team that is gonna make mistake.

Trouble is, with a quarterback like Cassel, those mistakes get amplified.

If your quarterback is giving the opposing team the ball on the 43 yard line, that puts the defense in a horrible position...especially when they are missing arguably their best player and the guy that limits the opposing offense from completing longer passes and is a beast in run support.

What we are seeing is a team with little depth, no quarterback and horrible safeties.

DOnt be so quick to judge on that one.

Josh is a damn good guy to have around if you are gonna be developing a rookie QB and his main problem was having his full control over player personnel moves.

I guess I would probably be less pissed with Josh as the next coach if Haley is indeed fired because of his ability to get the most out of his quarterbacks.

Just please make sure that if that is gonna happen, that Cassel is long gone by the time he is hired and he has little to no say into player personnel moves.

If I have to chose between Todd Haley and Andrew Luck, there is no choice...Bye Haley...but if there is a way to keep Haley and still be in position to draft Luck...we will be well on our way to greater things for the next 15 years.

WTF? Have you even watched our last 4 regular season games? Master motivator? I'm sure he is a great OC with the right tools but as a HC he sucks.

If I were having a say in the call, I keep Haley and hire Tom Clements (GBs QB coach, who has ties to KC) to be our new OC and hopefully find a way to draft Andrew Luck.

Those would be absolutely solid choices for this team going forward.
There is only one OC that Haley will work with and that is Haley himself. He has already proven that he can't be OC and HC so where does that leave us?

HCs are almost always judged on what is ultimately their QBs performance.

This is no different.

Look at the great Bill Billicheck before and after Tom Brady for proof of that statement....if that doesn't do it, there are hundreds of other examples.

Of course they are. BUT, that doesn't mean that Haley is being unfairly criticized. Keep in mind, I didn't want him or Cassel. I thought they were both horrible pickups by Pioli and so far, I feel justified in that thought.

How do you explain the crap he pulled on Wiess at the end of last year? Our O was doing decent enough before he decided to interfere. THAT wasn't Cassel's fault. Haley hasn't done shit to make me think he deserves another year as HC.

That was Pioli going on a limb and its up to him to be right, its also why he hired Weis to "fix the quarterback"..seems like he was micromanaging there, doesnt it? I mean, Haley talking about the hire talked about how he and CW got in a lot od fights while coaching in the same room in NY with the Jets. That was Piolis move.

If Haley were to bench Cassel in that situation, it would be putting clown shoes on Pioli and it would hurt Piolis credibility with Hunt because of going against his wishes in the first place.

I didn't say the entire season. The first two weeks he was crap and the last two weeks he was crap. The games he played in between he was serviceable. That was Weiss.

Haley wants to have a quarterback that makes defenses cover the whole field.

So does Zorn.

BOTH of them were yelling at Matt to throw the damn ball downfield and GC has posted screen shots of multiple players being open in those situations.

Matt simply doesnt trust himself.

I think it has to do with the mental aspect of MCs history of losing battles for the starting position and seeing Stanzis superior tools every day probably makes him feel like USC all over again...its probably something they have been trying to avoid since day one and why they haven't brought anyone in to compete with him, even after a horrible 2009.

Matt better step it the fuck up if he wants to keep his job because his window in KC as the starter is close to ending.

I would say it wasn't even that positive.

He had two good games in the first half of the season - against the 49ers and Texans.

The other games he was downright horrible to average.

Then he went on a 5 or 6-game hot streak and ever since he's been shitting his pants with regularity.

Actually, Weis aka "QB GURU" developed a gameplan that was "run first" as part of his plan that in his own words were "fix the quarterback" by taking away the deep routes and making everything based on 2 reads because that's all MC can do...and to be quite honest, he isn't even good at that. ALL of his passes need to be adjusted to by his receivers.

That was supposed to be a start, but Cassel STILL wont throw the fucking ball down the damn field when the opportunities are right there for the taking. Or improve in going through his progressions and still looks at the pressure instead of keeping his eyes downfield.

Nobody is arguing about Cassel. He isn't the answer. The question is why can't the great Haley get him to produce like Weis did? Why can't the great Haley get Stanzi some game time in preseason or when the game is a blowout? A halftime adjustment would be nice one of these days.

His one shot downfield was 10 yards behind Bowe. He can't throw the ball down the field. I think they were mad at him because he couldn't even get rid of the ball before the half on a hail mary. A good play could have changed the whole momentum of the game. Instead it just snowballed.

Teams had 12 games of film (nothing the first two games) to see that all they had to do was crowd the line, double Bowe and blitz a lot to shut us down and the Raiders, Ravens, Bills and Lions all used that gameplan to do exactly that because Cassel hasn't grown to make them respect more and to hurt them by crowding the line.

What do you think he should do? Continue to coddle MC?

Run half an offense and never have a chance to win big games?

He is putting Cassel in a situation (after 3 years as a starter in this offense and 3 more years sitting and learning behind a HOF QB from this same system) where he either needs to step the fuck up and be a NFL starting quality quarterback...or be relegated to backup duties.

Thats what the big picture is all about.

Pioli hires all the coaches
Pioli brings in the players (this part I think Haley has played a part in)

NFL head coaches almost ALWAYS hire their own coaching staff and most of the time make the calls as to who plays and who sits (though some GMs do play a part in which players play...the ones that dont win)

How can you say that Haley is a failure if the guy cant even have the freedom most NFL head coaches get in choosing the coaches that fit their style and what they want to do with the team?

I bet if he gets fired, he gets an OC job quickly (unless he wants to take a paid year off) and within 2 years is back in a HC spot where he gets to chose his own coaches and he thrives.

Handcuffing the guy to Matt Cassel and a bunch of coaches he didnt chose (and end up not working out) is a totally fucked way to treat a HC.

All Weis would have done would be allow Pioli to keep Cassel here for a few more years in which all this great young talent would go to waste.

Pure and simple.

...if that was the case, we would probably have two experienced playcallers by now and Haley would be able to focus on other areas.

You know, things a HC does...

Clancy was a bad hire, no doubt, but after getting hired in February, not much was out there as far as DCs go. Im not gonna give him a full pass on that one, but that situation is hard to make a decision that would please us fans and get results the following year...also remember that Crennel was contacted that year and Clancy wasn't even hired as the DC...he was hired as a defensive assistant and was named DC a few weeks later once Crennel told them he wasn't ready yet after his surgery.
