A case for Todd Haley

[matthewschiefs]

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!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think its funny how you think you know everything about the Chiefs, so I figure I can know everything there is about the Broncos. They suck.

Another coppout. And I accept the white flag you raised-I won't even bring up the fact that you couldn't back up your nonsense about Denver and "quick fixes".

Hey, you come to a Chiefs forum bringing the Denver talk, you ain't gonna get respect. Don't cry on the way out.

Sorry, not buying your argument. However, I do agree that getting rid of Haley would be a mistake, unless perhaps it was for Cowher. That being said, I don't expect him to get fired. But it has been a step back. These players have another year of experience under their belts and should be playing better and they are not. The play calling has not gotten one ounce better since last year, and frankly that's a step backwards. Most drop passed in the NFL is a step backwards. Both rushing and passing Defense ranked 30+ for the first time in team history is a step backwards, and frankly losing to a joke of an organization at home, in week 15 is a step backwards. So sorry brother, but I"m not buying it, we didn't move forward, and mostly we went backwards. I'm going to cincinnati this weekend. I'll wear my gear, and give all the encouragement I can, but all that gives me is the continued right to say that this team SUCKS! a few bright spots, but mostly sucks, and we can all thank F'n Herm and Carl for that. And if they don't make some big changes in OC & DC, then we can start blaming more people.

[Coach]

The Broncos are who we thought they were.

At least he's toned it downed a couple notches since the beginning of the season. In a couple of those early games I thought he was actually gonna "blow a gasket" and drop dead on the sidelines.

I agree. It's been nice to see Haley begin to mature as a coach.

Coach gets the rep.

That's funny every time I watch it!

Hey, you come to a Chiefs forum bringing the Denver talk, you ain't gonna get respect...

Apparently I get more than you seeing as nobody came to your rescue.

Again, you brought up Denver. So when I asked you to explain your line of reasoning, you got all choked up with nothing to write but junior high insults- and that's fine really.

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 love this thread!

What the hell does that have to do with anything? Quick fix, slow fix? Who cares, they are exactly what people expected they would be this year. The worst move they made was firing Shanahan. The best move they made was trading Cutler for picks.

They are rebuilding like every team in the west minus the bolts. That is what we all expected.
