:clap: This X 2.

yeah, I can't believe Haley didn't take a 2 win team, watch the team trade its best offensive player who is a first ballot HOFer and take that team to the Super Bowl. He must suck

I take it you don't agree that Haley has been making decisions like a man with his head firmly planted up his own ass?

I'll double that

This X 4.:Scanlon:

It's tough to gauge Haley as a head coach this year. Every game (except maybe yesterday) his team has been at a disadvantage talent-wise. As a result you have to take risks you normally wouldn't (like going on 4th down all the time) The main problem I have is Pendergast as DC. But Haley was hired so late in the offseason that there weren't exactly alot of top notch assistants available. I Haley deserves a year with an upgraded roster.

Do those risks include kicking the ball to Joshua Cribbs over and over again?

well our kick coverage has been decent (up until yesterday) this year so I can't really say too much about it.

ROFL

WTF? Even after he just roasted your ass for a 100 yard return?

so you think if you get beat for a long TD pass you should just play prevent the rest of the game? Cribbs had returned 6 kicks for TDs in his career so the odds of 2 in a row were small so yeah I would have kicked to him.

:shake: That's ****ed up.

no it's not. Cribbs has returned 262 kickoffs in his career. He had 6 TDs going into yesterday. He returned one for a TD. The odds of him doing it again in the same game were very small. Granted, it happened and hindsight being 20/20 they shouldn't have done it. But if they would have kicked the ball out of bounds every kickoff the rest of the game people would be calling him a pu$$y and an idiot for giving up such good field position.

It's just like the people that hate Obama or hated Bush. If Obama/Bush said the sky was blue people would bitch. If you have it out for somebody you'll gripe no matter what.

If we're going to keep the leash this short and fire Haley, as the majority of the planet apparently wishes; what kind of message does that send to prospective coaches? What kind of coach would want to come here?

Whitlock throws out the terms loyalty and fairness as if they are absurd. However, loyalty and fairness are still important to me, and they should be to any person or organization of character.

Loyalty? Fairness? Those are two pretty damn good reasons to me.

Agreed.

Don't fail at epic levels.
