Again, though...
How many players can you say "that guy is not playing up to his potential" under Haley?
How many close games did we win last year because of NEGATIVE QB play? What if we had an AVERAGE QB play against Denver two weeks ago? What about this week against New England--a guy who could actually finish up drives? Better yet... why did we lose to Baltimore? Primarily because of negative QB play. Our QB is a virus. I saw Palko this week move tight ends and RBs into positions to pick up the blitz. I saw him call his own plays, whereas Cassel look confusedly to the sideline for direction. I saw Palko dictate the tempo of the game. And all year long, Haley/Muir's playcalls are getting receivers open. What the **** do you do when your QB doesn't hit those open guys? What do you do when your QB is so inept at throwing to the deep field that the entire defense is gunning for 20 yards and in?
I don't care how gifted a carpenter you are. You're not going to build a good house with a plastic hammer.
