If I'm Weis, I want assurances that the play calling will be mine and mine alone.
I think Haley realizes that Weis is probably looking to angle any gig he gets into another shot at running someone's show, so he probably sees Weis as a short term guy who he can hand that part of the team to, and then when Weis departs step back into it once things are more stable (sort of like what happened in Zona between himself and Whiz).
Haley also probably wants someone who he could trust implicitly with the offense, which is why Weis makes sense, since they know each other pretty well...
