Great thinking, Al davis. Yeah, that's right. I just compared you to the raiders owner.
That's how dumb that statement was.
WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE WANT?
i love the whole "in game blunders" nonsense. You expect magic? You want the team to be instantly champions? alright, go spread your pixie dust and wave your sparkly wand, princess. me? I plan on living in the real world, where things take time, people make mistakes, and the smart people learn from them.
yeah, he's a first year head coach. he wasn't hired to come in and be the savvy game manager. he was hired to find, develop, and motivate players. i LOVE what he's doing, starting with making sure that his players want to be chiefs. i love that he has brought in anyone and everyone who might help the team, and if they don't, they don't play.
So what's the problem? Is it because of our record? If we were 7-0, would you still think they were blunders? Think the Denver fans are still calling for their coach's head?
Did you think we were going to beat the NFC east? No. Everyone was saying before the season that we couldn't beat baltimore in baltimore, we should beat the raiders at home, and we'd probably get swept by the NFC east.
Well, we lost to the raiders, but beat the redskins. The rest of it has gone exactly the way everyone thought it would. Only, now it's happening and you all start freaking out like a 12 year old girl who just had a frog pee in her hand.
SETTLE.
THE HELL.
DOWN.
How about we wait to call for Haley's firing until:
1. He has a single draft where the scouting was done by HIS scouts for players that fit HIS system.
2. He has coached a full season with his players, not 7 games with Herm "I'm literally the worst coach ever" Edwards' players?
3. He shows repeatedly that he will not turn us into a winner. If I put a pot of water on the stove, and in two minutes it's not boiling, I don't throw my hands up and say "this is retarded! this will never work because it hasn't yet!" no, I don't. That's Al Davis thinking.
4. He has three losing seasons in a row. That's right. Three. If he can't pick players in the top half of the round on draft day that turn us into a winning (above .500) football team in three years, then yes. We need a new direction.
7 games is just that - 7 games. You don't freak out and say he should be fired. Say it will never work.
No, that's uh...something STUPID fans who DON'T UNDERSTAND the game do. You're not...stupid, are you?
Are you?
