Football Haley appears interested in chiefs head coah vacancy

From reading this article http://www.kansascity.com/sports/chi...y/1004720.html Haley makes several remarks to make me think he's interested.

“I don’t know if you can say everybody wants to be a head coach,” said Haley, who began his career in the New York Jets’ personnel department. “I didn’t get in this business to be a head coach. As you move further along, and you move up the ladder, it’s something you start to think about.

“ ‘Could I do this job, could I not do this job?’ I have great confidence in my ability, and if the right situation presents itself, I think I’d like to show that.”

“That would make me feel good, but that’s pure speculation, and something I’m not thinking about, and that’s coming from my heart,” he said.

“Scott is great at what he does,” Haley said. “What he and coach Belichick have done in New England is awesome. They have the blueprint on how to work together to succeed, so I’m really happy for Scott. He’s been an anonymous, low-key guy who has done a great job in New England … he has a great opportunity, and I’d like to see him succeed.”

Does this rub you the same way?

You can't read too much into it, but overall it has more of a positive tone than a negative one.

Why are we so convinced by Haley? He's only ever been a WR coach before becoming Arizona's Offensive Coordinator, where he has had a hall of famer playing QB and some very high draft pick studs at WR and edgerrin James. REmember when we all thought Mike Martz was a genius? How's he worked out without Warner or Torry Holt and Isaac Bruce?

You're missing the points. Haley absolutely and without a DOUBT elevated the game of Warner, Fitz, and Boldin. He lit a fire under their asses and mercilessly marched them forward every step of the way to this Super Bowl.

I live in AZ, I watched these guys play ALL last year, and they were nowhere NEAR the level at which we are witnessing now. You have to understand; it's not Haley's X's and O's that make him an attractive candidate so much as it is his dynamic, coaching style, and leadership.

If I could somehow get a guarantee that he and Pioli would use our 3rd overall to draft our long-neglected Franchise Quarterback, I would drive to Phoenix and help him load the Ryder truck.

Martz bought into the hype that he was a genius. How else do you explain torpedoing Warner in that Giants game and only running Marshall Faulk 9 times in the Super Bowl? Martz let the ego get in the way.

James has hardly been the stud that he was in Indy. They've done better in the playoffs, but I don't think anyone is going to confuse them with an adequate running attack.

We've tried enough retreads without a lot of success, I'm for giving and up and coming coach a try.
