This is on the owner.

If we ended up with McDouchebag I'd LMAO .....

Maybe, maybe, if he had absolutely no juice on roster moves, but still probably not even then.

Sadly, it sounds exactly like something Pioli would do.

possibly, have having a GM that controls the head coach and uses him as a scapegoat sounds pretty familiar

Sadly, I agree.

Even though I think Cassel is the root of all the problems for KC.
Im not sure if I should want to kick puppies or what.

It would be a "please save me from looking like a fool with this Cassel stuff, PLEASE"

I think you are right here and have you already seen the point spread for next weeks game 15. That tells you everything this thing is a sinking ship and we are going to go get blasted next week. I hope people don't show up to the game vs the Vikings and set a standard that we aren't going to watch crap. They need to put Stanzi in and see what he can do if they keep losing the way i predict they will. Just like everyone on this board i am a huge chiefs fan and it pains me to say that i might not watch another game this year. You were all right about Cassel he isn't the answer and ill eat crow for that. But i think Haley is gone and we are now a strong player in the Luck sweepstakes. I hate to say this but i want them to lose and keep losing and draft him.

Can't be the root because he didn't trade for himself.

If Haley wants to keep his job, the only way he can do that is to cut bait and demote Check Down no matter what the GM says.

% chance that Haley gets fired if he sticks with Check Down- 100
% chance that Haley gets fired with someone else behind center- less than 100

well, let's see.. what were the choices at the time. Brady Quinn? Thigpen?

He's not the root of all problems. There are obvious holes on D and with the o-line, but he is not part of the solution.

There was a draft that year, too.

Thigpen would have simply been a less expensive Cassel, so he definitely should have been viewed as a viable option. If you're going to be shitty, at least don't overspend for it.

Pioli isn't a knee jerk reaction kind of guy.

It's gonna be suck and lots of with no changes until the end of the season if it evens happens then. Get used to it and hope your fantasy football team does good.

If what I'm reading about Haley driving off Weis is true he's been taken down a couple notches. Gotta read into that more.

they scored like 1 point the last 10 games. Cassel is the problem much more than anyone else. No guts, no glory. He's pathetic.
