I've finally changed my mind about Todd Haley

There's no question. We'd be tougher, meaner, better prepared, and consistent playoff contenders.

And then promptly get bounced in the first round.

But, ****, that BBQ smells good.

I don't necessarily disagree.

But post McNair, Fisher had to deal with a lot of meddling from his owner if memory serves.

He might do a lot better if he wasn't saddled with an owner who demanded he start a flava clown QB.

When Fisher had McNair that team won playoff games multiple seasons. When they went into the Vince Young/Kerry Collins merry-go-round, shit went south.

As opposed to a meddling GM who saddled the previous coach with a backup/starter (whom he knew "better than anyone")?

Point taken. But we have to hope that Fisher would be smart enough not to come here if he was saddled with Cassel.

Yeah, just too gun-shy about the level of incompetence shown by Pioli to this point. No confidence.

Perhaps, if he would hire a more seasoned HC, one with a stronger voice that he would respect, the two could sort of balance each other out.

And then the whole scenario sounds a lot like Marty and Carl. .
