A source within the otherwise impenetrable walls of One Arrowhead Drive advises that the Chiefs have fired this morning offensive coordinator Chan Gailey.

Gailey survived the initial purge of assistant coaches after Todd Haley was hired in February.

It's unclear what has changed between then and now.

More to come.

That's very interesting.

Huh? What?

**doomy3** · 08-31-2009, 09:13 AM

Holy Shit!

Interesting. Gailey is a guy with some reputation, a former HC. Not sure I'd blame him for an offense that has a porous O-line, a subpar QB starting last season, and underperforming wideouts. I mean, even Picasso couldn't paint a masterpiece with a palette full of shit...

HOLY dogshit. This is highly unusual.

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."

This was my first thought.

If this is true, Haley is wanting results and won't stand for any mediocrity like this organizations has stood for during the Carl and Herm era.

Yup. That's my thought.

Anyone who thinks Thigpen gives us the best chance to win ought to be shot

I think that if Haley hires Martz, Pioli will fire Haley.
