I've finally changed my mind about Todd Haley

Who cares about '09? Pioli gave Haley ZERO to work with.

1) the Chiefs' defense in more games does enough to make the game winnable. They are more than adequate for a good offense and a hell of a lot better than what New Orleans or even New England have. 2) Again, it goes back to Pioli. You blame Haley for '09? What about Pioli for forcing a 3-4 on a 4-3 team? What about Pioli for being so stuck on his friends that he hired Romeo to run an outdated scheme? Haley never had a choice in this.

I don't think the defense is that bad. But the reason they aren't great is a hell of a lot more on Pioli than it is Haley. Again, who on defense is underperforming their talent level? Who? Nobody can answer that question because he's' made the most out of almost every player he's coached.
