Did I miss something?

Why would you rip Reid when he's been there, done it, is a proven HC and has shown the ability to lead teams in the past. He has experience on his side. Arians gets ripped cause he's never proven that he could handle these duties.

Yet another douchebag trying to feel vindicated. Lets go ahead and wait for the next season to start before passing any negative judgement.

Rob Chudzinski. Chip Kelly. Mike McCoy. All offensive guys with a TON of offensive playcalling experience. Guess what? All three of them hired a highly experienced offensive coordinator (Norv, Shurmur, Whisenhunt).

Why are we applauding this? I hate the idea of head coaches also being coordinators (as much as I've defended Haley, this is a decision I thought was dumb from the top-down).

I dont know why you are addressing this to me.

And it's funny that he says as much as he's defended Haley he thought the decision to call the plays was dumb from the top down.

Are you blaming someone other than Haley for that?

I'm not saying Reid won't succeed in KC, but if you rip Arians for hiring an OC who has no previous experience and Arians will call the plays, would it not be fair to do the same with Reid?

These aren't the same thing. Trust me, I'm not a Reid cheerleader, so I'm not creating a double standard here. Reid hired a very experienced offensive guy in Childress who will undoubtedly help Reid in coordinating the offense and preparing the game plans. Arians is going to be playing a full time role as offensive coordinator, while being a head coach too -- the OC he hired is probably purely following Arians' marching orders.

Arians is about to repeat the same dumb mistake Haley made in 2009, when he underestimated the massive amount of work he will have to do on the administrative and leadership side of being a head coach. Haley looked unbelievably stressed his first year. Reid has done this for many years. He has shown he can do this, and my guess is, that as Pederson becomes more experienced Reid will let Pederson have more control over the offense.

You keep saying Reid hired Childress. Can you link that for us?

No. Haley gets most of the blame for that. It was his call and it was a dumb one. But this is also one of those areas where ***** should have known better than to allow a young guy like Haley have that much responsibility. Funny that ***** was pushy about making stupid decisions, but not pushy enough about making the right decisions when needed.

Goodwin has previous experience for helping to draw up a game plan for the offense with Pittsburgh as a quality control coach.

Arians has more experience as a coach before he was hired as HC than Haley did.
