It's kind of strange ... this speculation that Haley's job is in jeopardy, I mean.
In my humble opinion, nothing could be further from the truth. First off, The Don knows that consistency at the HC position is a major key to long-term success. Second off, he knows that Haley is just getting started. Third off, he knows just how badly this team sucked with they took over. Fourth off, he's smart enough to understand that this season's schedule is quite different from last year's list of opponents. Fifth off, it's apparent that he has a good working relationship with Haley and they share the same basic philosophies. Sixth off, who would take Haley's place who would be any better? Seventh off, they came in with a multi-year plan to convert the Chiefs into a perennial contender and that takes time. Eighth off, he knows that we're fortunate to have Haley who is personally and primarily responsible for the development of some of our best players like Hali, DJ, Bowe, etc.
The Star is dim.
