Yep. I think it is a great move because honestly Chan is a horrible OC and has sucked every where he has been. Haley should start taking over offense and work his magic.

Haley should definetly go out there and help block and call plays

Chan Gailey Relieved of Duties as Chiefs Offensive Coordinator
Aug 31, 2009, 10:30:29 AM

The Kansas City Chiefs announced on Monday that Chan Gailey has been relieved of his duties as offensive coordinator. Gailey’s status with the club will be addressed by head coach Todd Haley following the conclusion of today’s practice. Gailey originally joined the Chiefs in 2008. He came to Kansas City after a six-year stint as head coach at Georgia Tech (2002-07).

Wow. Its official.

This is a really strange move two weeks before the opener. We knew Haley was a hot head I guess, hope it works out for the best. There must have been some real issues between these two over the last couple days.

Bring back Solari!!! Solari> Hitler!

So now that Herm and Carl are gone, the circus continues...

Jesus! Haley thought being a first year HC AND calling the plays would be too much. I guess that changed.

That would be horrible based on his previous stops.

They probably meant to do it back in February but forgot what with all the other things that were going on.

I bet he initially thought Chan was a Chinese name and he was initially afraid to fire him for legal reasons. Last week in the coach's meeting he finally figured it out.

I don't think there's much doubt that while they might hire an OC or promote Carthon, Haley's going to be calling the plays. It's kind of like when I'm watching my son play Madden in a big game and while I watch him call runs on 3rd and 10 I just grab the controller and take over.

I'm betting it will be in title only. Hailey will call the plays.

They want to rebuild this thing their way. Not some shotgun offense, Tyler Thigpen running around, botched play offense. Chan runs an offense they dont want, plain and simple. This certainly cant bode well for Thiggy. I expect the chiefs to try to pick up O'Connell from the waiver wire. I think Pioli likes Cassel, Gutierrez, and then Brokie if he has to, otherwisw, O'connell. Chan may have simply not been in agreement with the head brass. Thus, out a here. That's how I see it.

"Maurice Carthon resigned as Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator on October 24, 2006 after Cleveland managed only seven points against the Denver Broncos. Under Carthon, the Browns had managed a league-low 232 points in 2005 and had only scored 88 points through six games in 2006. Carthon was the third NFL offensive coordinator to be fired during the 2006 season. Fans -- obviously fed up with Carthon -- started the "Mo's Gotta Go" movement in October 2006. A website www.firemauricecarthon.com was created to express some fans' displeasure."

Not that this will change anything but that opener in Baltimore is going to be U-G-L-Y,maybe Haley should just let the whole 2nd squad start.
