    Default A case for Todd Haley

    Ok so there are many threds talking about fireing Todd Haley or makeing him just the OC and getting a new Head coach. Well I am going to make a case for him.

    1st The Chiefs are NOT a team that have clearly gone backwards from a season ago. They have one more win. They have problems this season but its not like theses problems are anything new. They are just things that have not been fixed yet. Haley deserves time to fix these problems. This is not his mess he should get time to fix it. The D was bad a year ago with Gunther as DC. Thats not anything new. The O LINE was bad a year ago with Chan as OC thats nothing new. Haley should get more then 1 year to fix theses problems.

    2nd Jamal Charles. Alot of fans are upset becuse Charles did not start the season as the starting RB of the Chiefs. There is a reason that it happend that way. FUMBLES. Thats why Charles was not the starter at the beging of the season. Haley could only go off what he saw in the preseason. Charles Had the fumble bug in the preseaon. You cant start a guy at RB if you dont know that he can hold on the the ball. Thats just how football works. I completly agree with that desicon.

    3rd This team would defenty go backwards if Haley was fired and ONCE again we started all over. When the New coach got in we would have alot of the same problems. The young players that would stay on this football team would have to go through there 3rd system in 3 years. Thats never going to help a football team. It would only slow down the devolpment of this young team. Does anyone realy want to start all over yet again before Haley gets a real Chance with players that he choses to bring in. Starting over would do this team NO GOOD at this point.

    There are some problems that this team has that are new. But as much as this season has been frustrating to watch there are some signs of life in some areas of this team. The O line has been better then what they were at the start of the season. Are they good no but they have improved over the season. The pass rush on this team is better then it was a year ago. They are not going to set a all time low for sacks like they did a season ago. Hali has defently been made a better player. There are signs of improvement on this team. Give it time and it may still work out. I dont think anyone would care who the Chiefs coach is as long as they are winning. But Starting over AGAIN next season IMO would be the wrong thing to do.

    GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    But when you spew baseless comments with no merit and don't even have the decency or knowledge to back them up you need to be called out on it. I did, you whined, and that was it.

    So through all of this you STILL can't give me a logical explanation as to why the Broncos are a "quick fix" team.
    I have told you why, you don't want to listen. Now I am done buying into your games...the reason no one hasn't backed me up, is cause they don't care. But if they did, I am sure they agree with me. Some may even agree with me and choice not to reply.

    Good bye.

    They are rebuilding like every team in the west minus the bolts. That is what we all expected.
    Yup! Only difference is that they're in the play-off hunt...this year.

    That's the point. A rebuilding team "knows" they are multiple players away from where they want to be such as Denver and Kansas City.

    A "quick fix" team such as The Redskins go out of their way to bring in high priced free agents to fill one spot despite the fact they need numerous spots to address.

    So my argument with KIA 267 is that Denver is in no way, shape or form-anywhere near a Redskins type organization.

    Call us s****y, call us lame, call us Donkey's, call us whatever you like but don't ever refer to us as a Daniel Snyder type franchise.

    With all due respect of course.

    And as luck would have it, the Redskins are courting the coach that Denver ran out of town. As much as I hated Shanahan, you would never hear me argue that he wasn't a talented coach.

    I'm still not really sure what the point of your argument is, but I agree that the Broncos are not the Redskins.

    I'll admit it, the Broncos are much further ahead than the Chiefs in their rebuilding process. Their defense is better, their Oline is great, and they have solid talent at the skill positions. You guys are also getting a very solid first rounder courtesy of the Bears (should be a top 10 pick). Azteca is right, the Broncos aren't a quick fix. Shanahan didn't leave the team in shambles like Herm did on his way out.

    Most people on this board won't openly admit that. But as much as I hate our division rivals, we have 1-2 more years before we can be at their level. But when we do, you guys better watch out!

    We were really a 6-7 win team last season, but our coach sucked and our record suffered as a result! You think with an offseason we would have improved to a 8-9 caliber team, but our coach sucked and our record suffered as a result!

    Todd Haley needs to realize everyone on the roster are all "his guys" and he needs to control his hot head temper a little more so FA's will want to come to KC to play for us. And he needs to stop making stupid decisions like starting LJ since day 1, and cutting Pollard.

    Win you only win 3 games at this stage, I don't care what your situation is, your a bad coach. The media, fans, players, and staff all had higher expectations. We failed to meet them. And a team's record is generally a representation of its coaching staff, or generally the head coach.

    WE LOST TO BUFFALO AND CLEVELAND FOR CHRIST SAKE. SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE.

    Your argument that we shouldn't fire him just because we recently fired Herm is inept. We don't just let a man keep his job if he is failing at it.
