I think I remember reading that Pioli wanted Haley to keep Gailey, but he didn't really want to, and Pioli won that one. Now it becomes pretty clear that Haley had strong feelings about it. Very odd. My guess is that Gailey quit rather than give up play-calling duties.

This doesn't bode well for the stability of the team, IMO.
GOOD!

it seems the opposite to me.

not having a complete training camp to work on the new offense held them back. having to install on short notice, learning on the fly, over simplified, etc.

guess it doesn't really matter tho. we may well end up with the #1 draft pick next year.

Maurice Carthon will be the O Coordinator this year.

You are only as good as your options. Neither coach has many. Firing them is window dressing at best. They aren't the problem. A lack of talent is..........this is stupid. Gailey has one of the best reputations as a offensive mind in the NFL.
This post is just riddled with stupid.

Maybe it went something like this.

Chan: "Hey, you know, I think Thigpen gives us the best chance to win in week one."

Haley: "F**k you, clean out your desk."
Anyone who thinks Thigpen gives us the best chance to win ought to be shot

Any chance of hearing from your source about this?

Sweet Jesus, where did this come from?
Why now? We're heading to Baltimore in 2 weeks!

Well kcchiefs.com has already scrubbed him.

He's terrible. Good move. He was bad in Dallas. He was bad at Georgia Tech. The Chiefs have been no different. How this guy keeps getting these jobs is a mystery.

From Rotoworld:
"Chiefs coach Todd Haley admits that he doesn't have the personnel to be a "high-powered" offense right now.
It didn't take long for Haley to realize he's sitting on one of the most talent-starved rosters in the league. He's been unhappy with his quarterbacks and receivers and plans to lean more heavily on the running game. We still think the Chiefs will pass quite a bit, but this is an offense to avoid in fantasy leagues."

*Haley could have let Chan hang around until the end of the season and then Fired him and used him as a scapegoat for our upcoming 3-13 season. Instead he took the bull by the horns and made the call right away. It may be to his ultimate detriment, but I respect the hell out of Haley for running this thing his way.
He said he could win more than 2 games with 22 guys off the street,looks like he fully intends to do everything he can so he doesn't eat his words.Right or not,major respect for the guy,and I hope in the long run we one day look back and think ballsy move but it worked.
